Good afternoon! What kind of characters or tropes do you wish you could see more of?? [Ex. More Trans characters; More witches; More himbos]
AND/OR: What kind of characters or tropes would you like to see LESS of? [Ex. Less Trans characters who have to live lives of misery; Less "evil" witches; Less characters played by Mark Wahlberg]
AKA what i need in my life are anti-capitalist trans witches who live lives of joy and community and also some himbos are there! HELL YEAH!!! ....... *ahem*. You don't have to be that specific, but hopefully you get the idea!
#original#writing#character design#the blacksmith#this is not the first time i have asked this and it won't be the last#but i wanna know what would make people feel seen and joyful in a way they rarely get to be#or just tropes that people enjoy#gives me a direction to walk in while i brainstorm characters i will love and others will love#for me i want to see sexy fat characters and characters who find healing and safe homes after trauma and trans characters#but also i wanna see himbos and farces and queer-coded queer villains!#i want transgender witches and autistic knights. and i want to know what people DON'T WANT too#and when i make a character who is in a group i am not in then it matters ENORMOUSLY that i am respectful and educated in doing so#which is my responsibility and i will hold myself to it.#what is the point of making characters like me to make myself feel seen if other characters feel like punches down???#it is a book about kindness and that sounds like something i must take every measure to avoid#i can't please everyone but that isn't the point.#the point is the difference between a fist punching down and a hand reached out to help lift a comrade up.#the point is the kind of person I want to be at the end of the day.#sometimes i may look an ignorant fool but so help me gods i will not stay that way and I will work to do no harm as I learn!#i will work to do better until the day i die or else i am not Jack Goodfellow. and as i AM him... well. my work is cut out for me!#I JUST. CARE. A LOT. ABOUT. KINDNESS AND STORYTELLING. IN THAT ORDER.#AHHHHHHHHHH
