Hey!
I know some people have a hard time putting their imagination and character into a page of it's own. They know how to rp, and they have character concepts, but they aren't too good at putting it all together.
I am making this forum for people like that. If someone needs help, they can give me the character idea and the basic looks and background and I can go from there and construct it for you.

I am also going to post characters on here and someone can ask and I am willing to give it to them. These are characters I might have made in the past and will never use or because I'm bored and are doing character creation. I will delete the post of the character I made after the other person has copied all the information they needed.
I don't mind if you modify any of the information, just give credit where credit is due please. I do put love and effort into every character I make and I don't enjoy my creativity being stolen from me.
Ask before you take a character as well. I don't want the same character floating through multiple profiles. It's also kinda rude.

Just be respectful. Please and thank you.

If you'd like to Roleplay with me, you can also ask. I don't do a lot of art so (sadly) I can't draw any of them.

Thank you :)

I don't usually go asking other people with help for my own creations, but I do have one character that I'd like to flesh out, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that.

She's the seventh protagonist in my "Genexis" universe, named Genevieve "Genny" Louvre. For context during the time of her story is she's a attractive looking woman in her late twenties, age not specified yet, and just like all the other Genexis protags, she's in a way related to them AND has a unique ability that allows her to summon a "spirit guardian/aion" to aid her, the guardian's name is "Devil Driver", in which it has the ability to give her certain powers based on the current emotions she is feeling.

Usually, most people's aions aren't able to talk to them, but Devil Driver can, and does so regularly. However, this would be all fine and good, but the aion has its own sentience and its general demeanor is very VERY charismatic and malicious, but Genny doesn't exactly know that.

I also wanted to imply that she has some form of psychosis, but I feel like I wouldn't be able to portray it right.

Ok. She seems interesting. If you could give me a bit of backstory I can type it all up for you. It there anything in particular that you need help with about her or any extra information I need to know? She seems very interesting and the character concept is unique.
What about her needs fleshing out in particular?

Here's the li'l bit of informal backstory:
In the dystopian future, the world's united governments have put into effect a worldwide "search and destroy" initiative to purge aion summoners around the globe, due to the suspicions of the public being realized; aion summoners/individuals with superhuman abilities aren't just some legend, they are a legitimate threat to humanity. Of course, this doesn't sit well with aion summoners who don't use their spirit guardians for nefarious purposes, but it's too late and the worldwide purge had already began.

Countries begin creating and deploying dispensable soldiers made from cryogenically frozen cell matter taken from (the now long dead protagonist of Genexis III's campaign) Jay Garrison, using these clones to either capture or kill on sight any aion summoners that are not directly assisting the government with its goal. However, the cloning process is not perfect, and spawned twenty-six peculiar clones with immense power and aionic ability, giving them the name "Type-Null" and immediately being promoted to General to lead the vast number of normal clones.

This is where Genevieve comes in...or doesn't. She had a downright horrible childhood and as soon as she turned eighteen, she ran to find a better life elsewhere, which eventually did end up happening - finding a boyfriend (Jason Passero, an aion summoner) who promised to take care of her regardless of whatever it would take (due to her psychosis). They both changed their names and lived together in an apartment, plotting a way to assemble a team to take down the 26 Generals and the government.
ooh, this sounds very interesting! i’d love to have a bit more on my character, riley’s background, to help shape his personality and give him some experience in life. i would prefer if it’s not too sad or traumatic as i feel like i encounter those topics very often and i want him to stand out. ^^ most of the information should already be on his page, but let me know if you need more!

What part of her are you having problems with in particular? Do you think she's too headstrong and straight forward, too generic, ect?

In my opinion, I believe that she is quite bland, other than the psychosis, in which that is the real issue. I want to make a character that is able to function to a degree that wants to see past her mental illness, but is unable to as hard as she tries. She believes that her aion summon is a part of her psychosis, and thusly, she can't show her true potential. Having trouble working that in, seeing as the aion summon itself is a sentient being.
