MAKE CHARACTERS? YOU'LL WANT THIS.

Character Builder

Character-making is arguably the most interesting, most important, yet most difficult part of making stories. When characters are well-defined, the story unfolds, seemingly by itself, before our very eyes. But when characters are not well-developed, they tend to look unrealistic and very two-dimensional.

The Talecraft Character Builder is a specially designed notebook that helps users come up with characters with depth, direction and growth.

After the adventure and the wanderings, after the climax and the twists, after the final battle and the happily ever after, it is the characters that stay with us long after the book is closed.

Stuck? Try the Online Talecraft Character Builder to come up with some interesting characters.

TALECRAFT JANUARY 2009 WEBSITE CONTEST WINNER: Miguel Martin D. Sarmenta

"Eat me!"

The cake was taunting her, daring her to eat just one more bite. It wouldn't hurt. Just when she was about to resist, the chocolate drizzle seemed to move on its own, lusciously making its way down the white chocolate shavings and chocolate top, over the edge, finally screaming a maliciously playful "Help me!" as it went over the edge, falling to its doom. "Save me!" it called, pointing to the alleged nobility of the deed which should be able to shadow its gluttony.
