Fallen Star - A Character Backstory Er...yes. This is my first L&L. I hope you all enjoy it ^_^ I'm going to work really hard on this, though probably not as hard as Pirates vs. Ninjas. That one hurt my hands D: and I don't know if it's legible or not. Er...anyway. Please tell me what you think of this story. At the time of posting, I actually don't have any chapters typed up, but this...this is it. I can't wait to show my writing to the world!quote:
So I've been hearing a lot about this thing called "character backstory". It seemed like a good idea to me, so I decided to pick up the pencil and write a few pages. ...Well, it ended up as more than that, and adding insomnia into the mix means I have a little spare time and a good idea of what to do with it. Anyway, this story fits in nicely, in my opinion, with the next chapter of Dragonfable coming up; with a name like Elemental Unity, it's hard not to, heh. Add that to a work in progress I'm creating, entitled M U S E, and you have a wildly gripping (to write, at least) backstory and tribute to a very nicely designed game. I made sure to write it in a very archaic style, as well, but that could level off later in the story as the thing gets less packed with information about this guy and more of a backstory. For titular options, I must say that "Origins" has been cliched to death. Thus, I endeavored to find a nice title that wasn't in use already and fit in with the name of my character; Fallen Star worked nicely, and thus was born something that has absorbed the past several hours with frantic writing, and the only reason I am typing it now is because my pinky hurts where my tripod grip crushes it against the page. I'm beginning to worry that this story will rapidly overtake Pirates vs. Ninjas when it comes to my NaNoWriMo story...nah. It couldn't possibly. I've filled notebooks with Pirates vs. Ninjas, and I think I already won, heh. Er...please tell me if my personal fantasies get in the way, especially with Terpsichore (*cough*andEuterpe*cough*), of a good solid read. I turn 16...today, actually, and sometimes the hormones do their thing, especially when it comes to descriptions, heh. Fortunately, the hero of this chapter only appears, like, twelve XD
