I will comment telling you the following:
a. What initially prompted me to like the character enough to write about him/her.
b. One of his/her best traits.
c. One of his/her worst traits.
d. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character.
e. The story/chapter/paragraph/phrase where I feel that I truly captured the character*.
f. My plans (if any) to write the character in the near future.

Date: 2007-06-10 07:15 pm (UTC)A little ditty in his honor:
Andreas is an uke
Everyone wants some of his nooky.
He's sore vexed
Whenever he's surprised sexed.
Hands off, mister!
Andreas' heart belongs to his sister!
b. Andreas' willingness to discard the racist rhetoric he was raised with and remake his entire life. That's a HUGE step that most people would never be capable of.
c. He never really dealt with his rape and torture by the Purple Man, but launched himself right into superheroing. I think he's in MASSIVE DENIAL and that kind of trauma will catch up to him sooner or later.
d. Andreas is pretty easy to write -- he's got a lot of facets to explore, and lots of interesting relationships with the other characters.
e. Sister Morphine (http://community.livejournal.com/slashthedrabble/407887.html#cutid1).
Misfortune, which followed Andreas like a lover, had found a home in the most wretched place in his soul. A misfortune even the most twisted of playwrights would not have touched, leaving him beaten black and blue (no, purple), as unworthy as he believed himself to be. Unwilling to give himself relief, no mercy, no morphine.
Despite all of the training to bring out the sadist in him, Andreas was discovering a talent for masochism.
f. Oh I'm sure Andreas will be popping in at some point! It'd be easier if not for my personal refusal to read Ellisbolts.
