How I got the ideas for my characters
3 years ago
Repost from my DeviantArt account.
Do any of your characters resemble yourself or some of your personality traits? My characters do, each one of them had at least one of my personality traits or traits of any person in my environment. And I feel like sharing that. In case anyone wondered who the characters are based off of.
Nick is obviously a cartoony embodiment of myself as a whole. He is entirely me in every possible way. He's how I view myself as a person. That may differ from the POVs of other people, but this is how I see myself.
Lori has my sassy and (pseudo-)rebellious side. I want to try and be more like her, which means, be more extroverted and go out and do stuff. She also is based off of a girl I've been with for a short time while in college. She was in vocational school still but she was crazy and a fun person. I wonder sometimes what happened to her.
Fred has my happy, adventurous and playful side in him, he is a lot of what I want to become or do in the future. I want to travel a lot more, enjoy the scenery, city and nature, and I also plan to become a licensed skydiver in the future. That’s part of why I do so many skydiving pictures with Fred. When the times are better and I have sufficient funds, I'll definitely enroll in that journey!
Destiny has my wild, crazy and restless side in her. I can’t hold my feet still and have to be active at all times, walking around or doing anything I want/have to do. Though I wouldn’t do any of the dangerous stuff she does like 200 mph stoops or risky speed flying or anything like that. Either way, she's my active side, to make it more simple.
And Steve has a bit of my sternness/strictness in him. For some extent, Steve is a parody of the US republicans due to his beliefs (not exactly specified, his bio just says he's very conservative and religious), and also represents my dad in a few ways, because he (my dad) is an aviator and a military guy as well.
And that’s where all of my 5 guys and gals came from! Hope you liked this more in-depth review of them.

YazFly is a cartoonish myself as example.
I guess everybody implements some of their own personality traits into their characters :D
