Are You Writing Serious Fantasy?

[Thinhyandoiel]

Ooh, haven't been to this thread in a few days. Bad me. Sorry. Okay, let's see if I can catch up before the unavoidable Math homework overwhelms me.

Characters whom you intend for a larger role, but they just refuse to let you bring them forward?

Yes!! There was this character that just 'happened' upon my characters at one point, and I thought 'Great! He'd be great for such and such.' But so far he's done NOTHING that great except display his fears of the Mist. I'm holding out though, maybe his role will come out later...I hope. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Bit characters that take over the plot and shove the heroes out of the way?

Actually, to my surprise, no! I don't think so. All my bit characters are out of there once I'm done with 'em. I just say "bye-bye!" And it's on with the story. That I am quite proud of. Not the above problem though. Why won't he DO something!?
