So I recently started making a named Trinity Brea Misra. I'm having a little trouble coming up with most of the nature and social stuff. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me with any of the details?
Here is the link to Trinity:
I might be able to help you, but be aware, I might be just as stumped as you 😆
Thank you so much!
Your welcome! I love helping people.
Update:
So I do still need a little help with Trinity, but I also started another character, Irene Hazel Semyonov. Would anyone be willing to help me with either or both of them?
I can try with trinity, but a fair warning, i'll probably mainly be asking questions instead of coming up with answers myself because in the end she is yours to create and love 😉
So for her nature, i guess to fill out any category well it takes looking at her backstory and seeing how that helped form her into the character she is today. What does she feel about being tested and researched? Is she even aware of the fact she is being observed? You say her motivations are revenge, hate and freedom, so she probably is aware of all that, but how does it form her as a character? For flaws, for example, is she more the type to be manipulative? Or does she show her anger in obvious bursts/explosions? Does the fact she is being watched constantly make her more of a consistent liar or does she not care about what they think anymore and so expresses herself freely?
For mannerisms, you could also play with the fact that she was researched. Does she constantly look around as if there is someone watching her? Does she seem especially jumpy in new situations? Or is she the type who gets phased by nothing because she has Seen Some Shit (TM) during the training and testing they did on the international space station?
Talents she has might have something to do with her 1/4 alienness, or also maybe with the things she did for research/training purposes. Like maybe she is especially agile because they were trying to figure out if she had enhanced reflexes and she was done getting hit by dodgeballs she was supposed to catch or something. What were they trying to research about her, in specific, anyways? Maybe if you establish that, it might be easier to see what kind of behaviors she would try to avoid (because she doesn't want to seem like she is proving the scientists right) or what special abilities she might or might not have.
Now for the social stuff, there you can go wild. Like hobbies for instance, i find it really fun to give characters a hobby you wouldn't expect them to have. Or to give them a stereotypical hobby but have them be really bad at it. For favorite possessions/favorite colors i like making it something symbolic, for example, one of my characters has the favorite color yellow because it stands out, just like him, and sort of reflects his bright personality, yet at the same time he's not what he seems in many regards so its a small allusion to the saying that not all that glitters is gold… So maybe you could try something like that. Or maybe make the characters favorite possession something that reminds them of their parents, or of freedom… As i said you can really go crazy here, so you can also just put in random things that seem fun to you because that can give the character some quirkiness and realistic weirdness that all humans have.
Umm so yeah i hope these thoughts maybe help your creative process and possibly gave you some ideas… Happy writing!
Thanks for the help! This definitely helps with coming up with ideas!!
I’ll give this a try!
A few questions, while attending school, how does she act? How you act at school brings out the best/worst in you. What’s her biggest fear? What makes her laugh the most? I’m motivations you said freedom. What is freedom to Trinity?
Just some suggestions! Hope they help!

Thanks, I'm glad my rambling was useful for something :)
