The world around us is full of interesting characters. At times, I base characters off people I know, or base a character off what someone I know would be like if they didn't have strong moral values. Sometimes, traits that we see in people we know can be exaggerated to make incredible comic characters or incredible heroes or villains. I am always looking for new ideas for characters, and one of the places that we can find interesting characters is just by looking at the people around us.
What do you think makes a character interesting to you? Do you like characters you can relate to, characters with interesting powers, characters with funny quirks, or what?
