Character Chart


In a previous note, I mentioned creating a character chart for your MC (main character) You might consider creating one for your antagonist as well plus some of your primary secondary characters. Here is an example of one. Just print this out or copy and paste it into your word processor.

NAME: (first)  (middle)  (last)
BIRTHDAY: (month) (day) (year)
AGE:
HOMETOWN:
CURRENTLY LIVES IN:
HAIR COLOR:
EYE COLOR:
HEIGHT:
WEIGHT/BUILD:
GOAL:
MOTIVATION:
CONFLICT:
MOTHER:
FATHER:
SIBLINGS (ages & genders included)
LOVE INTEREST: (name) (age) (lives in)
FRIENDS (ages & genders included)
ANTAGONIST (conflict -person, thing, self)
REASON FOR ANTAGONISM:


So, that should get you started. You can add any other details you think you need to remember about your character, but these are some good basics for a character chart.
