New charachter need help!

[Blazeaga]

Hey guys i want to write up a charachter profile, i am going to go to extremes on his personality and etc. So far i want to write a large story including him as one of my main charachters and i want to make a concept for a game including this person. ( if anyone has seen extra credits i want to try to make a concept of a game from some of the episodes i've watched from it ). If anyone wants to add in bits and pieces of what i should put into it i am very intrested! and if anyone could show me pictures of how he could look it will be greatly apreciated. His name is Salirian Suntouched, he is kind of arrogant and a jack ass, thinks he is better then everyone else but a good guy nontheless. He has orange hair, skinny, preety boy look, thats it. Sorry if too long ><.
Thanks in advance.

Im confused as to what exactly you are asking, let alone what you are trying to accomplish.

Erm, sounds like a blood elf ¬¬. Not taking your inspiration from WoW now are ye ^^?

It sounds like you're aiming for too much at once tbh. If you're gonna make a game around a character, you're going to need to make the game match the character, or make the character match the game. You may also want to ask yourself more deeply where you want to be at the end of this exercise.

If you're wanting someone to help you on the concept art side of things, I do strongly suggest making sketches of your own, even if they are bad. Might also help improve your art skill at the same time . It's usually easier to work off someone's sketch rather than a text description, though it does no harm to have the text to add extra details to the image.

Tbh, if I couldn't code a game, or have people who are willing to help develop one, you may be better off writing a story instead, if that's your thing (which sounds more like something up your alley based on this post, but only guessing). Then if later on down the line, you get the resources/knowledge you need, then you'll have something that should be stronger to work off.

Are you making an, "OC" for an online... thing? If you really want your creations to go somewhere, I suggest putting away the notion of making a cool character, refrain from going to Deviantart, and instead just think of the world.
Then give it a mood and theme.

(For example, Gurren-Lagann's world is one in which the spiral king tries to keep humanity down by putting 'em in holes or fighting little rebel enclaives. With giant face robots.

The mood is generally light-hearted comedy, with the emotional capacity to handle death with a straight face.

The theme, of course, is all that talk of spirals and believing in oneself 'n such. The plot device/grand mcguffin that defines what is relevant)

If you are good enough at creating a world, you can go to anywhere within it and pluck out interesting characters.
So you should create your world, then go looking for where Sallrian comes from, and where he goes. Things will then just fall into place.

Fill out this list of characteristics and you'll have a fairly three-dimensional character.
It's what Disney uses to make their mains.

These are parts of that list that are rather shallow and pointless, but the rest is a good template.

Totally. Quirks can make or break a character.
I mean, where would Portal be without cake?

Wow thank you so much for that list. It will make it a lot easier to organize my thoughts and make sure I'm not forgetting something.
