    What I do to make characters less boring is use features I usually wouldn't. It's always so refreshing seeing things not considered 'beautiful', yet still finding comfort and beauty in them.

    So as a person who makes a lot of OCs myself I agree with all of these tips they are really good. I usallay try to make my characters relatable in some ways and not relatable in other ways, and also some of my characters have powers and some of them don’t but are. Still really strong. For example one of my OCs is the one on my profile pic who is named Sienna.
    She is a kindergartner and also the daughter of the principal.
    Her cousin Emma also attends the same school called Self defense education.
    I know that Sienna will have some powers that will only show when she’s mad (I know not og idea plz don’t cancel me) but I have not decided what they will be yet.
    Not all my characters are that detailed with their backstory’s and relationships but I still try to make them relatable and also unique
    Anyway sorry for yapping
    Bye

    Water has the most potential in all the media I’ve seen. (I mean I guess that and earth) but I like to imagine that you’d be able to manipulate the stages of matter along side it, like you could make it solid or make it gaseous, you could change its temperature. You may also have a moon motif because of how tides are affected by the moon, you can use it to propel yourself making you fly! Just so much potential for water

    i know how to design a world in a -world- personal record of 5-20 minutes and the final details usually come later. sometimes when its out of my comfort zone, it takes 20-50 minutes. and the rest that im way unfamiliar with is 50 minutes to any time
