Naomi  (purplebookdragon) Name: Jamie Isabel Stuart

Age: 16/17

Appearence: brown eyes, long wavy red hair, maybe a tiny bit of freckles. she has a tattoo of a butterfly on her left shoulder. she has a bunch of holes in each ear. she dresses really crazily in her own unique style.
she looks sorta like this:

Things you know about the character so far: her moms name is kimberly, dads name is andrew. she has an older sister named bethany(name will probably be changed) and a boy friend named Ian. she is very outgoing and bubbly, she talks a lot and in very unique.

Things you know about the character's past: nothing

Where you think the character will end up: i dunno. probably on a talk show for something crazy she did.

What you want help with: making her more believable and less cliché. i want to make her well rounded and fleshed out with pet peeves, quirks and other stuff.

thanks a lot!

Give her some flaws. Maybe her noseis very pinched and small.

Since she's outgoing, she can sometimes be overly so and hog the conversation, perhaps?

Quirks... never wears matching socks (or any socks at all)?

Maybe her pet peeve is when people get after her for her style.


message 3: by Naomi (new)

Naomi  (purplebookdragon) non matching socks is good and so is the hogging the conversation.
thanks so much! do you have any ideas for last/middle names?
