If every character sounds the same, readers may struggle to remember them.

Give characters different goals, fears, speech patterns, habits, and ways of seeing the world.

Distinct characters make a story easier to follow.

Character Development

A great character isn't always likable. They just need to be impossible to forget.

Your characters shouldn’t only exist when the plot needs them. Give them little habits, routines, and private rituals that belong to them.
What’s one private habit your favorite character has?

Well, Gwydion from the Masqued Sorcerer likes reading a lot. Dante from Re: Shattered Memories likes being around Augusta.

Want stronger characters?

Give them something they want, something standing in their way, and something they don't want to admit about themselves.

Plot creates movement. Character creates meaning.
