Bringing Characters to Life!

r/characterbuilding

The world might be a stage, but a stage is empty without actors. This subreddit is for the people who live within the worlds you create. A single character, a troupe of characters, a whole culture of people, it all belongs here. Main characters of a story, supporting actors, personal mascot or flagship character, none will be denied! Story snippets, drawings, CG work, the more the merrier!

This reddit is about sharing, critiquing, discussing, and brainstorming original characters, mascots, game characters, and story characters, whether they're from somewhere familiar or alien.

There are only three rules:

They have to be unique characters...as in, no plagiarizing. Tony Stark is not your character nor will he ever be. Fan fiction characters based in Tony Stark's world? Sure.
Constructive feedback is both welcome and encouraged. This MAY cause some drama, I implore people be positive and not tear anyone down if you think their idea's too cliche'd or Mary Sue-ish. On that same coin you post your ideas at your own risk, and submitting anything is akin to throwing a newborn to the wolves...either they'll eat it or he'll grow to become Nashar the Wildborn.
Use NSFW flags when appropriate. I draw the line at full blown porn, but a pin-up piece or R rated material I'm fine with, so long as you use a NSFW flag!

Please keep in mind this subreddit is VERY new, this is my first modding experience, so things might be a little slow to set up. I'll be wanting mod volunteers later, I'll keep everyone posted when I'm ready for more mods.
