List three strengths and three weaknesses, no matter how big or small, of your character.

Here’s mine:

Malkor

Strengths:
1) Commitment to an ideal – justice
2) Desire for non-violent solutions despite his physical strength
3) Quick mind

Weaknesses:
1) Rigid view of the feminine ideal
2) Not opposed to bullying in order to get his way
3) Perhaps too much faith in Isonde and Arden

Struggling to come up with three weaknesses for Malkor, a character I’ve just started working with, made it clear that a) he is a bit too Mary Sue and b) I need to work on making him more 3 dimensional!
