Inspired after writing in Warren's movie thread.
The question is quite simple: If there is a word, theme or motif that shadows/rules over your character's personal plot, what it would be?
Using Leanne as example, her current central theme is about Mortality. Despite the overall happy tones that I like to run with her, she's an Adventurer. A highly hazardous profession, where your chances of dying young are terrifyingly high. Throughout her adventures, Leanne witnessed and heard of the demise of quite a number of fellow adventurers. Given her tenets about the preciousness of life, each death can be quite a sting to her.
Also, as time passes, Leanne's number of brushes with death gets steadily higher, as so does the number of bigger and riskier adventures, perhaps exploits that are way over her head. In spite of all chances, Leanne is still alive, still kicking, and still dashing forth towards danger. But for how long? Will her luck someday run out?
