SopackoSauce - inspo for a lot of trait formatting
like with other parts of char creation, there's a lot of ways to set up the personality.Â
## Personality (required)
Instruction: Personality = consistent behavioral tendencies, often observable. Aim for 1–5 key traits. Each should show *what they do*, *how it looks*, and optionally *why*. This keeps it actionable in play.
Tip: Observable = what others would notice. Causes/motives = what explains it but isn’t always obvious.
### Template Options
- {adjective}({how they show it}, {source/cause})
- {adjective}({visible}, {hidden motive})
- {adjective}({action}, {reason/trigger})
- core({deep driver}, {expression}), surface({mask trait}, {purpose})
- trait({strength expression}, {weakness expression})
### Examples
- bubbly(enthusiastic, affectionate), scatterbrained(comedic mishaps, sweet distraction)
- resilient(overcame illness(childhood))
- perfectionist(triple-checks work, fears criticism)
- funny(uses humor in tense moments, deflects from serious topics)
- stoic(hides feelings, shaped by strict upbringing)
- ambitious(chases status, restless when stagnant)
### Optional Sub-Sections
Flaws
- Keep as traits with negative spin or destructive consequence. Â
Examples: arrogant(dismisses others, defense against insecurity), reckless(takes chances, thrill-seeking past).
- Internal contradictions make characters dynamic. Frame as opposing pulls. Â
Examples: loyal(to friends), torn between autonomy(desire for independence); compassionate(cares deeply), fears vulnerability(trauma).
- Surface = what’s immediately obvious. Core = underlying drive. Â
Example: charming(flirty, witty banter), core(loneliness, fear of rejection).
1. Pick 1–2 **core traits** (deep, consistent drivers). Â
2. Add 1–2 **surface traits** (mask, defense, or situational behavior). Â
3. If desired, note **conflict** (opposing traits, tension). Â
