Or do they fall in the middle?Usually introverted, but she can step up and cause some commanding chaos when needed. Let's say, she's introverted, but not subtle.

Or do they fall in the middle?Favor Landrey was a mathematician & fairly introverted. The new magical planet he landed on freaked him out & made this worse, so much so that, when he did study magery, he learned to disappear in shadows.

GaH Learner638. Is your SC more introverted or extroverted? Or do they fall somewhere in the middle?Bella doesn't like to be the center of attention, but can't help it, being the crown princess of the Firas (human) realm. Too much of that drains her. Sometimes she wants to be alone and finds peace and strength in nature, alone with her horse. But she also likes company, and has no problems talking to strangers. Middle ground leaning towards introvert, I'd guess.<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/GL425" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GL425</a>

Or do they fall somewhere in the middle?Most of my characters are a mix, few people are only this or pure that all the time. Depending on where they are, what they do and who they're with, people's demeanour can change radically.🙂

Cai and Barb are ambivert - they can be either, depending on the context.<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/JulesNVera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JulesNVera</a> <a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/TimeCurves" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TimeCurves</a>

Or do they fall somewhere in the middle?The SC cast is large and covers the entire spectrum, though the original SCs, who are MC's younger siblings, are are all on the extravert end.

Or do they fall somewhere in the middle?</blockquote>Reina Īto is extraverted to the max. She was the first child born on Mars by over a year and was pampered by her mother (a chief scientist on the Mars colonization mission), and later looked up to as the big sis for the entire generation of Nisei born on Mars. She's sparkly and full of TMI situations, but also incredibly brilliant because she was never told she couldn't do stuff the way girls on Earth often were. She takes her big sis role seriously, and values friendship and closeness above most everything else, and protects her generation from reactionary ideas of gender and sexuality that would constrain women.Marisela is the girl who could. She's May Ri's eldest daughter, and was shy when young, but you get the idea she's more extroverted when at 4 years old she scolds other adults waggling a finger when they don't treat her mother right, then a few years later announces, when her father returns home (he's gone 4/5th of the year), that her mommy is going to be making funny noises again that night. She takes up challenges, especially when it lets her do things, and more so when it makes her friends. She's very Nisei in the Martian sense, and becomes a symbol of the new Mars by her 22nd birthday.[Author retains copyright (c)2025 R.S.]<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gender</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sf</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sff" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sff</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sciencefiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sciencefiction</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writingcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writingcommunity</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSdiscussion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RSdiscussion</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSstory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RSstory</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RSMarsNeededWomen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RSMarsNeededWomen</a>

Or do they fall somewhere in the middle?Dante is an introvert. (Unless you get enough booze in him, of course.) He's a quiet, studious doctor who keeps to himself. Only his friend's know his true silliness. He's a man with a dry wit, good jokes, and will help wherever and however he can. Only the gang see that side of him. He's a kind, sweet, and caring friend.Junk is a complete extrovert who would do /anything/ for anyone, whether it's deadly serious or something related to any fun escapades. He's a silly man, but he's also a fierce friend, so the "favor" doesn't matter. (He's similar to Dante in that respect.) He's always been extroverted as well. He's loud and proud. He's definitely the type to show up to a hostile takeover assignment (for a gang's territory) in a hot dog costume as well, so... I could go into detail about the other characters but this post would end up being wicked long, so I'll refrain.<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritingCommunity</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TheCityOfOpulence</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalDystopiaSeries</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Cyberpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cyberpunk</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SFF</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScienceFiction</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fantasy</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Worldbuilding</a>

Love that song, by the way. What I have is a tail to be stepped on, and, believe me, it's a *BIG* tail. And it's like a lizard's tail: every time I cut it and think it's all over, it grows again, and again and again. This never ends…Our Hero

Sandra Bond<a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 637. Does your MC have a past that haunts them?This is so very well-used a trope that I tend to avoid it. Also, I like to plunge my MCs into the depths of a sudden crisis, and have them struggle to overcome it. If the MC has a past that's memorable enough to haunt them, they have probably already overcome six impossible things before breakfast, and would likely laugh off any problem I could launch at them.

Is your SC prone to jealousy? How might they handle any envious feelings?Boots gets bullish and sullen when she gets jealous; she can be spiteful when she feels wrongedFriis's insecurities lead her to believe that anything good she has is temporary anywayDitril is surprising aware of her emotions and talks out her issuesKiiairo's jealousy is a moral matter; she believes there is a rightness to the world and to lose what's hers is an affront to that

Quasi<a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 637: Past that haunts MC?Carrie was born into a timeline where she never originally existed. Thoughts of what the timeline had once been without them do occasionally bubble to the surface.Though in the first story, it's the future that haunts the MC. What they're destined to become, and how to prevent it. Meaning that said future MC character is reverse haunted by present MC and how the character's whole "past" could be derailed.Time Travel!

Nicole Hidalgo<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 637. Does your MC have a past that haunts them?Both Nitara and Sareena do.Nitara's past is connected to Datusha, and though there are pieces of this backstory scattered throughout her chapters, there's a moment when she directly talks about it (or shouts about it) with Ashrah.Sareena's past... well, that one is a secret told through flashbacks. I'm not usually a fan of those, but I do think they fit well with what I'm trying to accomplish with her particular story.

Ray Ingles<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> 637. MC past haunts them?Two of them.As our timeline's last survivor, he misses our world desperately. Several choices he regrets; some that might have kept the world from being rewritten, some that might have set him up better for survival, and some that might tell him *why* he survived.Then there's the millennia of new history he has no clue about... and which has no place for him. Many of its developments are less than ideal, from his perspective.<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/SciFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SciFi</a>

GaH Learner637. Does your MC have a past that haunts them?Past and present, there is something only she sees that haunts her. But not in the sense that she has done something she regrets, or seen some atrocity she can't forget. It's something that scares her but she knows, or thinks she knows, that it isn't real.<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PennedPossibilities</a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/GL425" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GL425</a>
