Thinking of doing a FanFic...
Hey! Yeah, as the title says, I am writing a fanfic. The story is pretty much planned out, and it is going to be split into 5 episodes just like the game. What I need from you guys is characters. So if you can give me a character name, brief description and looks that is greatly appreciated.
PS I will probably post the story on Wattpad, so once I have started I will post my username.

This has nothing to do with trolling. God, I wish more people on the internet knew what trolling is.

I'm not a complete asshole. I just pointed out it's funny to say a story is completely planned out if you don't even have characters to begin with. Dude. Get off your high horse.
What type of characters do you mean? Are they the main characters or just a supporting cast?
Some will survive longer than others, as per usual. It depends on where I think the story is heading. As I said, I have almost everything planned out, I just need characters to fill the blank template I have in mind for them
Now I won't be a complete asshole but I'll tell you: Make up your own characters. It is important to know your characters, it is important to have a bond with them. I wrote several fanfictions (really long fanfictions) and a few novels. Making up characters is more important than the story itself.
Ok, fine. I just wanted a bit of input to the community, thats all.
Yeah, but trust me, it won't really be 'your' story if you don't think up characters. I've published a novel a few months ago, and 90% of the work was making up good characters. I won't tell you how to do it, I don't want to argue with you. I'm actually a nice guy. I was just making a joke there.
But... really, writing is wonderful, but it's not as wonderful if you don't write about YOUR characters. That's the most fun part about writing.
Yeah, I can tell now that you are a nice guy, I feel a little bad for snapping back at ya! I will start thinking of characters now, thanks bud!
If it's about community input, I'd advise you to describe the characters here if you already have an outline for them
I'd give you feedback if you want, but trust me, it'll not be fun writing if you did not make up those characters.
Usually when it's minor characters I just think them up on the spot as I'm going along. Main characters, even secondary ones, you should try just writing a few things down in a separate word file, add things like name, their age, do a little bio thing about their history and kind of person they are, etc etc. You do things like that, it tends to help. But if you get stuck for names, just look up 'names for boys or girls' they usally have an A to Z listening with meanings behind them so it'll help you give them a name.
In the end it's your story, just go with the flow and you'll figure it out dude
I think it maybe ideal to have starter characters that you create, then allow people to submit their own characters to the fanfic as time goes on. I'm thinking of starting one myself on here but still deciding how to begin it etc.
Just advice if you do post it online do not be discouraged when people don't review it or "follow" it. Just keep writing and let your imagination flow and be creative. I'm writing a fanfic myself.
Silky Johnson: A fetish model known for his elasticity. His dark secret is that he was born a woman.
Ghost Dad: A hologram modeled after acclaimed actor Pete Postlethwaite created as a tour guide for a state of the art sperm bank. Has gone mad and now imprisons all living human beings in order to "save" them.
General Rumble: A pet turtle. Is dead. Re-purposed as ashtray.
Ghost Dad 2: The Ghostening.
Genius.

History
Chris was born to a poor family, he had two sisters and a brother. Chris loves to hunt and is part of the SWAT team. Law enforcement wasn't his first choice though, he wanted to be an engineer, but after his dad was killed his plans changed. Chris began searching for vengeance. Chris trust people most of the time but is not afraid to tell you what he thinks. Chris had many friends in the military and he himself was going to join but never did. Chris is a very loud person who likes to be heard, comes in handy most the time. Chris likes to take charge and be the head power. Many people say Chris is a nice guy who wouldn't hurt a fly if it didn't harm him in some way. Chris also has the misfortune of being partially color blind.
I think to make this backstory believable he should be at least 30-35 years old.
Good advice.
