Thanks to the lovely Cara Bristol for this fantastic idea! It really makes you think differently about your characters! So here we go:
Name: Jason Christopher McCarty
Age: 26
Occupation: RCMP Officer
Marital Status: single, but has a friend with very good “benefits”
Likes: his job, his best friend’s kids, and being the hero
Dislikes: snow storms, hiding that he’s gay and homophobes
Best characteristics: he loves kids, his family, and he’s very compassionate
Worst characteristics: he hides too much of himself, he compartmentalises everything, he can be clinical and cold.
Biggest challenge: hiding that he’s gay from everyone.
Biggest fear: he’ll never find someone to love him.
Best one liner: “I hate to break it to you but this whole relationship is kinda gay.”
Name: David Henri Richard
Age: 34
Occupation: RCMP officer
Marital status: divorced, with three kids
Likes: his kids, his job, and his best friend
Dislikes: his ex-wife’s irresponsibility, not being in control, lying to his family
Best characteristics: he loves his kids, he’s a good cop, he forgives easily.
Worst characteristics: he’s got a temper, he’s impulsive, it’s always his way- or the highway
Biggest challenge: overcoming his own stereotypes
Biggest fear: his kids won’t be able to have a relationship with their mom.
Best one liner: “I have had sex before. I have three children to prove it.”
