Name a character that you know I write or have written, and I'll tell you:

a. What initially prompted me to like the character enough to write about him/her.
b. One of his/her best traits.
c. One of his/her worst traits.
d. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character.
e. The story/thread/chapter/post/paragraph/tag/phrase where I feel that I truly captured the character.
f. My plans (if any) to write the character in the near future.

a. Initially, she was just going to be a shared character in Milliways, played to be a cute baby, and that's all. And then I had the bright idea to play her as a teenager. She's been the most fun character to play. ;)

b. Best Trait. Hmmmmm...Loyalty. I think that's par for the course with anyone affiliated with the CTU-loyal-to-Jack Bauer crowd.

c. Worst trait? Being so damn convince able. She'll convince herself that anything asked of her is good, regardless of whether it's good for her or not.

d. Actually, Angela is really quite easy. She's almost completely an OC, after all. It's fun to take some traits from the Kim, Chase, and Jack characters, throw in a little of her drug-addled mother and see what comes out in a teenage girl.

e. Honestly, I like the OOM right before she makes her first in-bar appearance. It really set the tone for how I play her, this insecure (still!) teenage girl who's jealous of Kim, depressed at being abandoned by her mother, feeling generally unwelcome (even if it's not true) in her home. I'll often reference it to this day if I find her being too confident in herself. ;)

f. I'm going to play her in Milliways as long as is feasible. I know her 'end-game' as it were so unless something spectacular happens in the bar, she can leave at any time, go just about anywhere, and do...whatever she wants. :)
