What's the best kind of main character?
What's the best kind of main character?
Brody Wilson
Jonathan Butler
The kind of main character that is so generic and boring you only care for the villains and side characters because they have more complex backstories and shit to deal with that the main character is too stupid to understand.
Mason Torres
intelligent, nihilistic and with a wicked sense of humor
Ian Brooks
Let's combine these into a quipping slacker douche.
Chase Flores
Let's talk more about our villain- we know they should be better written than the MC, tell me more please.
Brandon Hill
Give him a bulge.
Jacob Lee
With that outfit he looks like he was born the middle child of a dysfunctional suburban family.
Wyatt Miller
make her female
Ryder Smith
Cool.
Luis Gutierrez
Give MC the optimistic snd naive, sidekick/friend to contrast his intelligent but nihilistic nature. Every good piece of Yas Forums media has that, it’s a classic
Nathaniel Morales
For action comics, a main character with strong motivations that only by chance coincide with stopping the villain.
The villain's motivations should be good and only arguably villainous.
Jeremiah White
But remember he has to be more interesting than the main character too. Make him butt of the jokes who nonetheless continues his heroic struggles with life without complaint.
Xavier Ward
The main villain represents oppressing the male power fantasy by disapproving of the protagonist's carefree life of video games and smoking pot, yet does nothing to the plot except make snarky comebacks while still putting up with his shit. Basically his mom, except they fall into a retarded obligatory romance plot that takes six months to resolve, where any sane woman would have left his ass on the first date.
Sebastian Phillips
so I'm seeing a weird Al type here, loveably eccentric.
She wants to take MC, break him, and elevate him.
Adam Nelson
>James Rolfe and Calvin race to see who can cuckquean Yukako faster
Luke Thompson
Who's good for rounding this out?
William Powell
James! SOCIAL DISTANCING!!!
Aiden Clark
Additionally: how are we feeling on race?
Joshua Mitchell
As adult best friends they obviously live together.
Elijah Torres
Villain's ex jealous of the attention MC's getting from her who acts as a secondary villain. Make him as '80s as possible, because why the fuck not.
Nicholas Rodriguez
Everyone is white except for a saucy British Indian who wants to fuck Yukako to make Calvin resent brown girls, thus causing a split in their relationship with James
Aaron Diaz
Give the villain girl one of those annoying little fuzzy dogs. Maybe make the dog is vaguely villainous too
Bentley Hernandez
the dog is the real villain. she's just being controlled
Aiden Allen
This, but the dog speaks in ghetto slang. And only MC's friend actually understands.
Tyler Bailey
we're starting to build quite a line up team.
What genre is this story?
Julian Perry
Nolan Young
the Bisexual Indian with the blue-streak is already p. yandere.
Jeremiah Brooks
That non-genre of "everything is generally grounded and only the most outrageous thing is the characters themselves", unless there's an actual word that genre falls under
Ryan Rodriguez
Cute Girls Doing Cute Things except nobody is a girl or cute
Isaac Hughes
So that kinda "coffee shop AU" "sprawling Sitcom that never does anything but update regularly enough that the patreon feeds and shelters the incredibly boring author" sort of thing?
Kevin Gray
whatever clone high was
Anthony Williams
And the exact same car crashes into a building every 10th panel
