Hi there! One odd thing that I have noticed that might help if you're ever struggling to get a sense of a character or if you have Writer's block when it comes to describing a character, is to sketch the character that is giving you trouble. The attached image is a sketch I did of a character of mine that is named Maadim. While I was writing the bits that featured him, I was having a bit of trouble getting a sense of how his transformation into the undead had changed him. And drawring his portrait helped me overcome that impasse. If you can't draw, don't worry about it. A stickman with descriptive bullet points is more than enough to achieve the same effect.

Ola! I'm going to try out something different, which is to make the occasional post about writing. Be it a comment on pop-culture writing or research, or maybe even some useful tips. The image above features a Guild Chest from TES Morrowind. It was likely inspired from real life, from the time when there used to be guilds such as the blacksmith's guild, weaver's guild, potter's guild, et cetera. While the Mage's and Fighter's Guilds chests are used to give the player starting supplies, real life Guilds used theirs to store documents, such as contracts, the right to operate, and other important documents. The chest was also used to store the guild's funds. And it was usually present and kept open during every guild meeting. That's it for now. Until next time, have a good one. ^_~ Also, if you like what I post, consider buying me a coffee at https://ko-fi.com/adriankain
