My Character -- Julian

First section: Character Profile1

1. First Name: Julian2

2. Last Name (if any): Sterling3

3. Age: 164

4. Gender: Male5

5. Species (for the sci-fi/fantasy genres): Human6

6. Bodily Appearance (Eyes, hair, shape, distinctive marks, etc): Brown eyes, muscular build, half-black, half-white, short hair (recently trimmed dreadlocks, they required too much maintenance; he doesn't joke about his appearance).7

7. Origin (A little bit about what makes your character who they are): He is the son of two scientists,and has received both of their smart genes; he wears them but gets them dirty and worn most of the time. Explanation of this metaphor: he uses his intellect to gamble against people and hack into their computers instead of for furthering his education and quickly joining his parents in the lab. The reason for this is his father who continuously pressures him. He even dislikes being called a genius because of the connotation of responsibility. He just wants to live his life and have fun.8

8. Love Interest/s: Abigail, a girl from 2008 who joins them on the spaceship in 2039 (yeah, you wouldn't get it...)9

9. Likes & Dislikes: Likes sleeping, EATING, being a nuisance (especially to electronics that have emotional chips and are quite grumpy...), and romancing the ladies.10

10: Virtues: Can be very easily charming, funny, witty, is loyal, smart and thinks on his toes (very handy in this novel)11

11. Vices: Is a little selfish, not too nice when he lacks sleep or needs food, is insensitive; if something is funny, he's gonna laugh no matter who is offended by it. He can also be annoying.12

12. Ambition/Desire: To hack into the Scientific Sector's head computer. That thing is untouchable; anyone who breaks into that is a mastermind. That's Julian's goal.13

13. Conflict: He falls for a girl who his best friend, Gregory, shows signs of liking. Gregory's bad with girls and Julian is pretty good with them. However he feels that he takes advantage of this to get to her first and he regrets it.14

14. Vocation/Calling: To help trump the plans of President Glokavitch (the president of the universe... I know, corny-sounding!)15

15. Additional Notes: He has four detachable pockets on each side of his pant leg, attached to each other by string and easily rotated. They all contains vital things like sustenance, hacking tools, blacklight, music, etc.16


Second section: A sample scene (100 - 400 words)17

Julian looked around, gripping Daniel nervously. Daniel was a sleek palm pilot, lime green on one side with a black screen on the other. Right now that screen was lit up and a blank white wall with a pair of thin pink lips was all that occupied the screen.18

'Are you sure she's coming?' Julian murmured to the electronic, taking quick, deep breaths.19

'How should I bloody well know?' Daniel responded with his usual charm. 'I sent the message, it's up to her to answer it.' 20

After traveling through space for the last few weeks, sitting in a regular mall had lost its charm completely for Julian. He was now seated in a booth at the Auto Cafeteria. Here one simply chose a booth, picked up a menu and said what they wanted. 2039 wasn't all that bad but space was so much better. After today, if all went well, Julian would be able to zip off in any direction in search of adventure and fun within a second. Plus Gregory, Drew and Abigail could come. They were the only three humans that Julian knew who had ventured into space to other galaxies and planet.21

'Someone's here,' Daniel droned. He had done his favourite thing when bored: created himself a pair of thumbs to twiddle. Daniel was never subtle and he had made sure that Julian saw all the steps involved in creating virtual thumbs instead of making it an instantaneous job as he was very capable of doing.22

Julian put this out of mind as a young lady approached. She wore a dark leather jacket that met her knees and walked gracefully and casually. She passed his table and as she did, imperceptibly slipped an electronic device onto the table.23

"Mission accomplished!" Julian thought to himself as he struggled to nonchalantly slip the device in his pocket. He wanted to wave it in the air in triumph and shout "Booyah!". He would now be able to hack into the Scientific Sector's computer with ease and borrow Sector property without a single hitch!24

'Space travel, here I come! Again!' He rubbed his hands together greedily.25

'Hey,' said Daniel from the table. 'You do remember that last time you went out into space the universes were nearly obliterated, right?'26

'Um...'27

Julian hadn't thought of that.28
