Creating Our Own Characters!

3/29/2023

As we have been reading our novels over the past few weeks, we have spent some time looking at characters and their characteristics and I hope that you’re starting to notice that each character has their own story, background, things they like and don’t, and their own personality. These characters are written that way by the author.
Today it’s your turn, you get to develop a character that you will use in a few future blog posts. For your post this week:
Create your own character that you will use in a story one day. For this character, they must have:

a name
a favourite food
3 personality traits (e.g. funny or humble)
a flaw (something that can create conflict - always getting angry at sunshine)
how would they react in a difficult situation (e.g. they didn’t do their homework)

Write down all of these things in your post below. When you’ve done that, write a paragraph from their perspective as they start their first day of grade 5. I’m so excited to see the characters that you create!

Hello everyone and welcome to the show about who is worthy to be in my comics! So if you don't know what this show is about, it's about random people who send me things about them then I see if there worthy enough to be in my comics. Let's get started!

Our first paper we have been sent is from Porta..porta..potty? OH no it's Portabella. That's uh a very..interesting name. Let's see what they have got to say for themselfs.

"Dear Grace,
I love your comics and your show and really hope I can be apart of it! It's been my dream since I was eight.."

BORING! NEXT! This is from Fifa..OH MY GOODNESS I wouldn't be suprised if they wanted to sponser me. Let's read what they have to say.

"Dear what's your face.."

WHAT!? REALLY FIFA!?!? So rude! NEXT!

"Dear Grace,
Hi my name is Jane! And my favourite food is pizza! Yum I LOVE pizza! I would say I'm smart funny and kind!"

TO BASIC! Jeez are all of these people awful? Next..

"Dear Grace
Hey! I'm Lillith Gabriella the 673th"

No thank you. Ok last letter of the day hopefully it's good.

"Hi Grace! I'm Jamie! Your comics are pretty good got to admit all your characters have the best names. Anyway I heard you are looking for new people to be in your comics. So here are a few things about me. My name is Jamie as a already said, my favourite food is deffinitely sushi, it's so good! A few personality traits I have are..probably friendly, a bit stupid, and pretty trustworthy. A huge flaw I have is that I'm VERY clumsy and easily break my bones. I have broken my collar bone, elbow, ankle, wrist, skull and my pinky finger. Pretty embarrassing if I do say so myself. And in a difficult situation I would probably be like any normal person and scream. Or is it just me? And lastly if I could be anyones bestfriend it would be Joe because I do enjoy eating a water bottle once is a while. Anyway! Hope I can be in your comics! Goodbye!"

Wow! This is it! Jamie is my new comic character!! FINALLY! I found someone! Well that's all for today! Come join me next time for Worthy Comic characters!

Sigh, my first blog post, might be my last. lol

If I made up a charater, it would be Jefrey. He would love donuts, his job would be a cop. But it would be a ticket cop guy. He is funny, humble, werid in every way and clumsy. This kidda reminds me of Clawhassaar from Zootopia. The only time he get's angry is when he runs out of donuts. He would cause chaos like scratch all the things near his way, argue and snice he is a human being he would claws of course! :) That's all for my blog post.

My character’s named Athena. She wanted me to tell you about her!

Athena’s favourite food is cookie dough. If you catch her in the kitchen baking, she’ll just be baking cookies so she can eat the dough. Double chocolate cookie dough is especially her favourite! I do like ice cream flavoured cookie dough… but eating cookie dough alone is unhealthy! I hope she finds a new favourite food. Even if it’s something gross like onions, I hope she’s more open to new foods. Athena loves cookie dough and I can tell it is her favourite.

Athena has three main personality traits. Sometimes she can be very sarcastic and a bit of a trickster! It’s very annoying to deal with. At times, she can be smart to the point where it’s annoying. Athena is always correcting my grammar, checking my private and personal schoolwork, and on occasion asking to give me tutoring lessons. I do not find this good, I also don’t take it as a compliment, either! Her last trait that stands out to me isn’t so bad! It’s how friendly and funny she is. Athena is nice to everyone she meets, never shy and always able to come up with random jokes and start a conversation. I don’t know how she does it! There are Athena’s main traits that stand out to me!

A flaw Athena has is that she’s all kinds of stubborn! The moment she has a bright Idea, or something she wants to do, she will be very clingy to it. Just like how she is so clingy to liking cookie dough. It’s all she eats! Athena needs to learn to compromise with people, it would be a good skill for someone like her to have considering her amazing traits. Hopefully in the future Athena learns to be less stubborn and starts being more open.

Athena isn’t good at reacting in difficult situations, you could count that as a flaw too. Athena can over react at small things, or full out rage at big problems that actually aren’t that big! Athena never has big problems, she just makes small problems seem big. If I say “me and my friend” rather then “my friend and I,” she will make me do two hours of grammar lessons! Another example is when she spills her cookie dough. One time, she was eating cookie dough when a guest was over and spilt it all over the poor guest! The situation was quite embarrassing, but she took it too far. She got the fire extinguisher and started to spray the poor guest! I thought that was a weird solution for someone as intelligent as Athena, of course she knows a fire extinguisher won’t help! Overall, I hope Athena learns how to over come how she reacts in a bad situation, big or small!

None of the flaws or bad traits stand out to me, though! I love Athena for who she is, no matter what. She’s grateful I was able to tell you about her, and says a large thank you for listening. Athena is my awesome character that’s always with me!

Second question about writing a paragraph from your character's perspective going into grade five:

I walk into the classroom observing my surroundings. There are many kids, the teacher trying to get the computer to work, and a large welcome sign. “Welcome to grade five!” The sign says, full of colour and stickers. I look around at the desks, and it seems as if you can go to any desk. I go leave my jacket and backpack at the locker with my name, and go back to the classroom to settle in at a desk. Once the chatter ends, the teacher claps his hands and my attention is brought to him. Everyone else looks up at our new teacher, and I notice the board behind him says “My name is Mr. Steltman and welcome to grade five!” He introduces himself, and we all create a circle on the carpet taking turns introducing our selves. When it is my turn, I look around fidgeting with my nails thinking about what I should say. “Are you there,?” He asks, waiting for me to introduce myself. “My name is Athena. I love cookie dough and I like to draw?” I ask, hoping that’s a good answer. “Cookie dough?!” Someone shouts out and everyone starts laughing. “It’s not my fault I like good food! You just don’t have taste!” I snap at them. Before the teacher can say anything, the classmate says I’m going to cry! “I’m going to cry because your breath smells like onions!” I yell back. Then the whole class laughs and I end up in detention. My mom, Kenzie is really mad at me and I get in a lot of trouble.

I am very happy that child got what he deserved. I am allowed to do self defence is someone is bullying me and after I let my mother know what happened, she is very proud of me and understands. “Oh, what a great first day, Athena!” My mother replies. Then I eat all the cookie dough I want and I have a happily ever after!

My character's name is Luna. Luna is the ruler of the all of the stars, and solar system. They have dark purple hair with light purple, pink, blue, and black streaks. They wear a long flowing dress made out of the screen of space. They have golden stars as earrings on the right ear, and a blue and a purple planet on the left ear. They are rather lonely, with only the stars to talk to most of the time, but when there is an Astronaut on the moon they try to make a connection, but no human being can see them.

Luna does not eat much, but if they do want to have a snack they will find a small meteor. The meteor's are multiple different shades of gray, varying to an almost black grey, and to an almost white gray. To Luna, a meteor doesn't really taste like anything. But to a human, the type of meteor that Luna eats, is deadly to humans.

Luna is very secretive. If they need to do something in privet, they will. If they need some where privet, they will most likely to find a deep crater in the moon to shelter in. They are also quite kind, despite their secretiveness. They will give gifts to the stars, when they are upset. They are also extremely brave. If two planets are about to collide, they will not be afraid to stand in between the planets until the problem is solved. One thing about them is they do get annoyed easily. If something happens on earth and they hear it, they get quite annoyed because they like the silence.

If Luna gets in a big problem, they will not panic. They just watch and see until things get out of hand, for Luna is always watching. Luckily, problems rarely occur because Luna has things in control.

When Joey walked into the classroom on his first day of grade five he saw his new teacher Mr. Weltman he was very happy to see his old classmates. The first thing he noticed was a scientific poster about the human body he lost his cool because he thought it was petrifying. And he saw a new computer just for him that he was excited to use.

-BANG-
Well thats not the intro I wanted, Anyways My charecters name is-
Well Joe just ate my script. Anway my cahrecters name is Joe. I must warn you now that Joe has a well interesting, unique personality. In fact he also has a strange digestive system.

Joe's favourite food apperently is popcorn espacillay when it's flavoured and drizzled with an unhealthy amount of butter.

Joe has 3 interesting personality traits. Let me list them for you.
Joe is mischevous. He never follows rules. Like the time at his schools talent show and ate the stage during intermission or the time he stole a marker from the classroom and got locked up in jail with a bunch of brainless people who spent thier spare time playing "Monoply extra boring edition". Joe is also energetic in fact recent studies show he is in fact nocturnal and never sleeps,and Joe is always bounicing off walls(i'm serious he actullay does that) Joe is also hungry. He has an interesting digestive system due to a tooth disorder which causes one of his teeth to hang out. He can digest any materials and any dangerous substances even Formaldehyde and Mercury.

Joe's flaw is that sometimes his tooth disorder can get him into trouble because he destroys things he is not supposed too. He also tends to steal things like a 1920s scooter and markers.

In a diffucult situation Joe would do nothing. Or he would panic. However if the situation was homework not bieng done.. He would eat his homework and say his "dog" ate it. I mean it isn't fully a lie and joe is amazing at lying. However the only scenario where Joe wasn't a weakling was when cheese got stranded on an island after breaking out of prison. (put in prison due to making dusgusting cupcakes). Joe stole a 1920s scooter and with the help of his 89 year old grandpa he found cheese and she was returned home. Joe won a medal for this act of greatness.

My characters name will be robotic or something close to that.The reason why I would name him this because he is a robot and that is why he is named robotic.

His favourite food is a sandwich or a hot dog. he also really likes burger but it is not his favourite. If he had to pick in between them he would most likely pick a hot dog because he thinks that they taste better but he does not like them plain.

His first personality trait is that he is really funny. He is basically the class clown but actrully is really and that goes to my next part of this is that he is really smart.He usually get's the best marks in his classes and his last personality trait is that he likes thing super exact. He always wants thing to be as exact as possible.

A character always has a flaw is that he is not really great at planning stuff. Whenever he has stuff he needs to do he is not great at planning and sometimes he so much to do and some days he has almost nothing to do so that is his flaw.
That is my charecter and I hope you liked it.

The end.

Welcome everyone, today I will be explaining a character that I made. My characters name is Marco and don't ask me why I chose that name.

His favourite food has to be pizza and chicken wings. But he actually likes shredding the meat on the pizza. I don't know why he likes it, he probably likes the meat with the cheese and sauce I guess.

Marco's three personality traits are funny, smart, and courageous. Whenever Marco talks with his friends even just every joke he says his friends burst out laughing. He is smart because he studies, does his homework, never quits, and gets straight A's on every subject. When Marco's friends always does a dare for him he just does it right away. He is the type of person that will sacrafice and do dares everytime.

Marco's flaw is that whenever his parents ask him to go to sleep he will be furious if he is busy with something. For example if Marco is talking with his friends that gets to sleep whenever they like he gets so angry. Another example is that if he is reading and his parents interrupts him this is when he is the most angriest because Marco was just reading in peace.

if Marco does not get straight A's and has like a B+ he will do anything to get an A. Once he got like a B+ and asked the teacher to hand the papers out do bonus worksheets and help clean the classroom. He is really eager to getting straight A's.
BYE!!

My character name is Autumn ( I used a random name generator).
Autumn has orgarneish long hair and mostly wears hoodies and baggy outfits. She has one friend named Max. He doesn't play with her most of the time though because he has guitarlessons like every single day!so she's very lonely .

Autumn's Favorite Treat is Pecan ice cream and her favorite food is corn on the cob .She just loves pecan Ice cream though. One time It was the middle of the night and I woke up to get some water and then I saw AUTUMN EATING THE ICE CREAM ! ugh....

Autumn personality well erm..
She gets bored very very easily. She'll just stare at the rain if it's raining most of the time .
she is very shy too
never ever speaks to new people and not that much confident but still she's humble a bit I like too think of her as a bee you do nothing to her she does nothing to you but if you do something to her she stings like real bad never mind that doesn't make sense

Yeah but she is also trusty like one time I broke something and Autumn was asking me a question and then till this day she NEVER TOLD ANYONE or she did I don't know . oh and A flaw about Autumn is that she is Very much sensitive
if she asks a question that you already answered and your like "OH MY GOD AUTUMN I ALREADY ANSWERED THAT " she'll be like
*Sniff Sniff I'm SoRrY Cries*
To be honest in difficult suction Autumn would just cry. She would get too nervous and just cry cry all day like I said, very shy, not confident and gets bored easily so she would just get bored of her crying and then do nothing and just sit there.

My character’s name is Sunday.
Sunday does not have a favorite food, but every Sunday she goes to a restaurant and orders the Sunday special.
Sunday’s favorite dessert is an ice cream sundae with extra sprinkles.
Sunday’s personality is fun, happy, and cheerful.
One flaw Sunday has is she is really shy. Sometimes when she meets someone new for example on her first day of grade five, she walked in the room and she was very nervous at first, but then she got used to the class, but again when her teacher, Mr. Emberman walked in for the first time, she was very shy to meet him. Mr. Emberman turned out to be the nicest teacher ever.

My character's name is Benjamin.

His favorite food is Couscous.

Here are 3 personality traits of Benjamin; emotional, HONESTY, and promise-keeping.

Benjamin have these satisfied feelings when the sun rises. But when it rains, he feels depressed.

Benjamin saw this KAREN one day, and the KAREN said that he looked like a girl. So Benjamin is not great at complaining, so Benjamin was quiet for like 2 minutes until the KAREN went away.

So my Characterar name is Click ( VERY weird name) His favorite food is Cheese and Macaroni. He is always wired because he clicks on random things so that means he is funny too and he is very silly. By the way He is a He. He always and always gets mad when it rains and when it snows because he likes none of them at all. If Click the click did not click on things or did not do like cooking his own food like he always does his parents with get pretty mad at him all the time and yes he defenitly does have parents why not. So they do get mad at him. Click is a random thing maybe like a button but loves to click too and i bet click likes his own click name too,by the way. Click is one 1 nice Click.

If I had to create a character, her name would be Petal. She’s a pretty girl with long brown hair and light skin. She loves to accessorize and is always wearing a new headband and different earrings. For fun, she likes to draw and make comic books.

Petal loves to eat. If she had to pick her favourite food she would say burgers and fries. Every Friday night her family would go to McDonalds and she would order a cheeseburger happy meal. Those were the happiest days of her life.

She’s fun and friendly and gives really good advice but often loses track of time, which means she’s mostly late which is a problem but she always apologizes

If she was in a difficult situation, like for example she didn’t do her homework, she would stay calm, tell the truth and then try to talk it out.
