Here are some of my tips for ideas:
-Watch more movies, read more books/comics, play more games.Â
Get inspiration from stories and characters. It's not that you should be looking for characters to mimic but rather even small details can lead to the creation of a character.
-Go on a walk, bike ride, car drive into the country.Â
Go someplace calm and peaceful. There is something about going on a journey that lets your mind wander in ways just sitting in a chair in front of an empty notebook or empty word doc doesn't.
-Read tvtropes.orgÂ
Beware it's addictiveness though. Anyway, tvtropes breaks down story and character themes into articles. It is the sister site of wiki and can be a good source of inspiration as well.
