Making A Character

Step One, Coming up with a name.
Hi there! If you want to make a new character for your fan-fiction, I’ll give you some of my tips. First, is it a tom or she-cat? No. I’m not stereotyping cat names based on gender. It’s just important later on. Okay, what does your cat look like? Like if you want the name to be ‘Brightflower’ your cat can basically look like anything. But if you name the cat ‘Brownpelt’ your cat should be completely brown or at least a bit brown. Normally the first syllable is based of appearance or a major event that happened when/before they were born, and the last syllable is also based on appearance, something random from nature, or if you become leader- for example- Your last name would change to ‘star’. Their name could also be focused around a prophecy. Like if it was ‘A rose will bloom in the frost.’ A possible name could be ‘Rosefrost’ or ‘Iceflower’, If you want it to be less obvious.

Step Two, Personality.
Personality is the second key. Come up with a basic idea of your cat. If they’re ‘Edgy and Mysterious‘ or ‘Kind-hearted and Shy’, make sure to empathize that in the story. Their personality could be based on the environment they live in, a traumatic event, or even If they’re a reincarnation of someone- They could have the personality of their past self.
