This worksheet helps you build a character for your story by answering questions and drawing. Since no specific problem was given to solve, I’ll show you how to fill it out using an example character — so you can copy the method for your own character.
Let’s create a character named “Lila the Sky Painter.”
Step 1: Draw your character
→ Use the blank body outline on the left page. Sketch Lila with paint-splattered clothes, wild hair, and maybe wings made of clouds (since she paints skies).
Step 2: Answer the questions on the middle and right pages
Middle Page Questions:
- What kind of person might your character be?
→ Lila is curious, messy, and always dreaming about colors in the sky.
- What does your character look like?
→ She has purple streaks in her hair, wears overalls covered in paint, and carries a giant brush that glows.
- What is your character interested in?
→ Painting sunsets, collecting cloud shapes, and learning how birds fly.
- What is your character afraid of?
→ Gray skies and running out of paint.
Right Page Questions:
- What special talent does your character have? What is it?
→ She can mix real clouds into paint and paint them onto canvases — they float off the page!
- How does your character look? Use your drawing to help. Does your character have any distinctive features?
→ Yes — her eyes change color depending on the time of day, and she leaves tiny rainbow footprints when she walks.
You can now use this same process for YOUR character. Just pick a name, draw them, and answer each question honestly — even if your answers are silly or magical!
Final Answer:
Use the template to draw your character and answer each question based on your imagination. Example: “Lila the Sky Painter” has glowing brushes, cloud-painting powers, and fears gray skies. Copy this method to build your own unique character.
