First off, consider taking this test and seeing how your character scores.
Very interesting link. Is there a version for males too? I wanted to do the test for Jet'a, but most of questions seem to apply just for females.
The test linked above is for characters of all gender & sexual identities. The usage of "xe" and "xir" are basically stand-ins for "he, her, it" and "his, her, its".
Oh, weird. Then I guess that it's just a case of most of these sentences not applying to my male Miqo'te >_<; ....
To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
