Developing A Character Part 2

Research and Background

Every successful character in a Haunt has a name. Give your character one. Try to steer clear of Freddie's, Jason's, and Michael's. These are commonly associated with known Hollywood characters. Chuckie would be a bad one too. Come up with something catchy that says something about your character.

After you name your character, create a back story for them. A backs story is very important in fleshing out your character. If your character is a butcher, then make up a storyline where they worked and what made them go wrong. Or if you are a Demoness, then come up with a really good name like Desmoanna Demon of the Shadows. Tell how she fell from grace, what kind of powers that she has, etc.

Creating a name and a storyline will help you in designing your sets and props and it will bring your character to life or death, whichever realm they dwell in.
