First seen at ceitfianna, swiped from in_the_blue: Pick a character I've written or roleplayed, and I will give you the top five ideas/concepts/other I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to depicting them accurately.

I have to go with Kitty Pryde.

Hmm... Gets thoughty. I have to admit, she got such little airtime on movieverse that I vary on whether I lean toward Evo version or comics version. So here goes:

For the SERIOUS story arcs:
• highly intelligent
• friendly/fairly extroverted
• emotional (but not overly so)
• strong-minded
• a people person

For the LIGHT/FUNNY story arcs:
• funny/slightly dramatic
• friendly
• highly intelligent
• a people person
• not easily persuaded to change her mind

When I write her in COMICS canon:
• There's this one scene where she deals with Pete Wisdom's cigarette (I believe she offered to put it out on his body) that always helps me remember how tough she can be.
• Then the whole "I'm the goddess of computers; you can worship me later." There's the humor.
• She told off Colossus for beating up on Peter, then talked about that relationship. Emotional but strong.
• C'mon. She's a GENIUS at computers.
• Again, friendly.
