Of course, you probably mean't 'growth in terms of personality', whereas the above paragraph gets a bit into 'growth in terms of knowledge/wisdom'. They'll fail as a character because people who are incapable of growing oftenly get labeled as dumb or stupid by the readers. They will fail in their goals because they'll use the same(or similar) approach in dealing with matters. I'm wondering if there's any good way to start giving this character some development, or if I should just leave them as-is until they eventually get themselves killed for good. I honestly don't like this character very much (though mostly because I'm really not comfortable with writing non-humans, especially since I'm not the one who built the universe or designed the races), but the character have remained static for almost two years despite having going through several cases where they've gotten in trouble many times for being either too careless or too cautious in pursuing their goals. They are primarily motivated to achieve more and more prestige, and while they might be willing to change their methods to better gain power for themselves, they stubbornly refuse to see other people as more than either enemies or stepping stones to further their goals. The character's basic personality is selfish, proud and elitist. The character is a part of a fantasy race that's frankly not well-defined by the creator/admin, and I don't know enough about the race (their culture, their habits, their social hierarchy) to give them a well-defined backstory. Otherwise, realistically they will fail and suffer the consequences.īy failure, do you mean they fail as a character, or they fail in their goals? Because the latter might not be a bad thing, within certain context.Īs a specific example, the character I have in mind is from an RP I'm involved in.
