Myth Maker's Story Challenge #1
Updated: Dec 4, 2023
Hey there, fellow storytellers! Welcome to the first week of Myth Maker's Story Challenges! Every week, we will choose certain members of the Story Squad to star in your story as "The Cast" and explore different ways to workshop easy storytelling techniques. This week, in the spirit of kicking off National Novel Writing Week, we'll be focusing on Character Bios!
The Cast
The Challenge:
Fill out the basic character bio sheet for all three characters. Once you're done, see if you can take it a step further and make a scene involving all three of them.
Advanced Mode Settings: Only one of the three characters can like yellow and purple as their favorite color.
Mini Character Bio Sheet
Character Name:
Character Age:
Occupation:
Favorite Color:
Special Powers:
Strength:
Weakness:
Loves:
Hates:
Their Drive (what makes them do the things they do):
4-Sentance Blurb summarizing the best and worst aspects of this character. Maybe even going into a brief but spicey backstory.
Pro Tip: Don't get too hung up on the details and shoot from the gut. This exercise should be completed in about 30 minutes or less, so any longer is defeating the purpose. Have fun and keep those creative wheels loose.
Feel free to share your work in The Storytelling Squad group, free for all to join! You can also make a free account to keep up with the latest Story Challenges and other updates on Storyteller Planet! I hope to create an open community of storytellers that can collaborate on ideas. I look forward to seeing you in whatever form I appear. Until next time!
