Character Creation Post #1

 Hiya! My name's Shadow, and I'm a character of the person who owns this site, whom I call 'The Admin'. As said in our first post, I will be helpin' you making characters. Now, keep in mind that this will (most likely, at least) be much different from any other guide for creating characters. Ya know why?

 Cuz I'm weird, and Admin's weird, so yeah.

 So let's start off with how to get started.

 Admin likes to make her design first, as she likes to imagine the character in certain situations, and that's how she builds up the character. I understand though, that many people think in different ways, so I won't pressure you to, and you can choose what to do first. Either or way, those two will be your first steps.

 Alright, so now that we got the beginning out of the way, let me go on about how your's truly was created.

 When I was first created, The Admin tried to make the personality first, and decided that I would be a schizophrenic that was very reserved and really crazy. Then she began to design me. 

 I started as a circular head, then she added a cylinder-like body that narrowed into a tail. She added two large wings, two oval shaped feet with claws, a black spade on my tail, and two narrow eyes. But she felt something wasn't right.

 She kept this version of me until she eventually decided to scrap it and start from the beginning, this time in her own style.

 She kept the body, making the eyes more oval shaped and adding a huge smile. She decided that I would still be reserved and crazy, but scrapped the schizophrenia. She then decided that I would be happy, but mother like. And that I would be protective over my friends. Now we're getting closer to the current me.

 Later on in the school year (I forgot to mention this; I was created during the school year), she decided to change my personality once more, making me happy and bubbly, with a crazy side and still protective. She made me the jokester and extremely childish. This is the current moi.

 Now that's it for now! I'll leave it off with one of Admin's friend's advice. We'll call her Ari.

"Draw a person. Decide its gender. And think if it could be related to another character. Then just draw away. Let your imagination flow. This once dont think of a backstory based on what he\she is wearing."

 (I'm going to assume what they mean is that 'Don't create a backstory based on what their wearing', but I dunno for sure)


 Bai!
