Rough Character Outline-WIP
Gnomes, odd little statues that have always been meant to decorate ones lawn or garden...at least that's what they have appeared to be. During the day they are simple figures, plastered with goofy grins, but come nightfall, they are sneaky little fellows, frolicking around the gardens in which they dwell. "Borrowing" whatever food they can, they are always cautious of careful to never take too much or show any indication of a disrupted garden. This way of simple living has suited them and there has never been any cause for discourse among the gnome community. But in the midst of this nightly routine, one gnome has found himself growling tired of this predictable lifestyle.
Norman the gnome, often thought of as the scoundrel of the bunch, has found himself growing weary of the boring life being led by his fellow gnomes. His outlandish personality is too big to be contained in such a small lifestyle. In his boredom, he finds himself pranking everyone for his own entertainment. His crude and pestering behavior is quickly becoming a problem amongst his fellow gnomes. As he begins to contemplate about what can be done to invigorate the gnome community, Norman's thoughts begin to take a more devious detour.
The cover of nightfall no longer satisfies Norman and he now finds himself envious those who inhabit the many homes within the neighborhood. Norman is now filled with the urge to do more than just settle for "decorating" the lawn or garden of an insignificant human. With the force of the gnome community, Norman fantasizes about revolting against the "garden freaks" and taking whatever the desire and in due time, he knows he can convince his fellow gnomes to see things his way.
Toll Booth Exercise: Coming Soon....
I'm still fleshing out Normans personality. I feel like I don't quite know him well enough. I've got a vague idea, but it still needs to be solidified.
Backstory: A bit one note. His character does not seem strong enough and well defined wnough. More about him, where he came from, etc. He seems a bit like the Brain from Pinky and the Brain, but less defined.
ReplyDeleteAttributes: Very negative and a bit repetitive, maybe round him out more?
