when you make a new character do you make (some) lore first or do you design them first? all of your xiv characters seem really well-rounded and interesting
ah thank you ;w; !! honestly it depends, usually I start with an idea for their appearance and a backstory element, and then I follow it from there and see where it goes!! I find that writing a bunch of little details helps to make a character feel fleshed out too :) those are always my favorite things to write anyway. do I know what Fletcher’s relationship with her ex was like?? no. but I OBVIOUSLY know precisely how she feels about spicy foods.
