Lesson One: Points of View * * * That's all I got for now. I guess you are welcome to do an example of one of these points of views for Homework, if you would like the practice. (Just do like One paragraph).
Thank you and that is the end of Lesson One.
OK, sorry my assingment's late. My, uh -- my absentmindedness ate my homework. This is my try-out of First Person, which I haven't done in a while. (I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to go for, but your LMB story sort of inspired this kind of setting and idea. Was that all right?.)
"Tigress!" I glanced behind me to see Jonmbost trotting up to me from the hallway, clutching his signature brown hat with one hand. I stopped and waited for him to catch up. He took several gulps of breath -- looking as if he had been running for a while -- and adjusted his sunglasses, which had fallen askew as he was running. I arched my eyebrows. "What's up, Jon?" "It's -- Chunky!" He gasped, leaning over with his hands on his knees. "He's--!" "Chunky? The biggest koala bear in our army?" I questioned. "Yes!" He panted, then stood up and exclaimed. "He's gone psycho!!I think MockingbirdInc gave him some caffeine, and now the biggest koala bear in the history of the LMBs Eternal is now down at the Coffee Table running around and destroying everything in sight! Everyone's panicking, the mods are trying to make him calm down and all the users are trying to find safety, and--!" "Oh, my gosh!!" I darted down the hallway toward the corridor that led to the LMB Coffee Table. "We have to stop him before he mistakes someone for an eucalyptus leaf!" "I'm right behind you!" With that, Jon and I raced away.

Lol. (I inspired someone? Sweet. )
That's really good Tigress, and hope that you two don't cause that to happen at the real Coffee Table.
1. No, you don't have to. 2. Great. *Doesn't know what that is* 5. Uh... sure? 6. It's always a good idea.
1. Well, lemme find someone else who hasn't read it yet or I haven't already suggested it to, at least.
2. *Telepathically tells you "Psycho" is an Alfred Hitchcock 1960 horror film that is famous, especially for its signature music when the psycho is attacking* *Also telepathically reassures you I do not watch horror films, however old they may be, I have simply heard enough about it to know what it is*
In order for the lessons to continue, you need to pick/make a character. Characters based off movies, like Tony Stark, Han Solo, and Captain Jack Sparrow, are perfect examples of characters that are already created for you. However, if you are writing a book and want a different character, you have to create your own.
So, how do you create one?
Well, when planning a story plot, you create key points and continue from there, deciding your climax and such. A creating a character is kinda the same. Main points to include in the bio would be:
Name
Appearance
Personality
As an example, I shall do a bio on my character Rose from my book Love With a Price.
Name: Rose Power: Amber (but mainly uses the power of Form) First Appearance: Dark hair that comes a bit past her shoulders, piercing blue eyes, olive skin, and perfect white teeth. First Outfit: Capris, a light blue shirt, and brown sandals. Personality: Funny, Smart, Witty, Worrisome, Powerful Probably made a few of those up but that's besides the point. Background: (@atyoustoryreaders ) Her distant parents left her in her room, not wanting anything to do with her. She knew nothing of her power until the age of eight, where she started sneaking out of the house. Right before she went to sleep, she would write letters to the "Lover of her Future" explaining her situation, in hope that they would understand why she was who she was. At age ten, she overheard her parents arguing about with someone whom she had never heard. This is how she learned that she would be taken away at age thirteen to this stranger. Her last letter was written on her birthday, telling of how she may never write again and apologizing for the person she might become.
Homework: Write a bio.
Any questions?
Awesome lesson, K66!
I'll think about the bio for a bit and post it here later. I'm thinking on doing a bio for my RP character in our Roleplay.
Name: Zach
Background: He is an engineer who possesses the Force and owns a workshop designing spacecraft, vehicles, gadgets, weapons, and other devices. His parents were powerful Jedi but they never taught Zach the ways of the Jedi as well as lived in eternal exile in fear of Order 66. He lived on Tatooine for a while working on Han Solo's Millennium Falcon until the Stormtroopers came to look for the missing droids. He got on his spaceship and moved to Stiix, Ninjago, where he assisted on building Ronin's R.E.X. Upon finishing a tune up of Ronin's R.E.X, Morro and Lloyd fought over the realm crystal which created portals to other universes and dimensions. Zach was trapped as the Preeminent octopus-thing wrecked the city of Stiix. There was only a portal to escape from, and so he went through it leaving behind nearly everything he had worked for and ended up in a haunted room filled with Weeping Angels. He was clueless, and he was scared. He thought he was alone, until he met Lila Barton (played by K66).
Personality: Humorous, kind, and intelligent in engineering. Scared of heights, dark areas, tight spaces, spiders, and Weeping Angels.
Appearance: Usually dressed in white cargo pants and a white short-sleeved shirt with blue stripes and dark stains from mechanical components. Sometimes wears Steampunk goggles with adjustable magnification for inspecting mechanics and electronics close up.

That was great Zach. Now I need to start imagining that character in that outfit.
