đ§ FREE WRITING LESSON â THE MOST POWERFUL CHARACTER DEPTH TRICK YOUâLL EVER READ.
Letâs say your character sucks.
Sheâs flat. Predictable. âStrongâ in all the wrong ways. Letâs call her Nicolle. Or Carol. Or whatever name Hollywood gave her.
Sheâs a superhero. Sheâs got powers. Sheâs got sarcasm. She takes no shit. She leads the squad. Sheâs admired by everyone â and loved by no one.
Youâve seen this character before. Now watch what happens when you give her one secret she doesnât brag about.
Nicolle has two sons.
Sheâs raising them alone â to become men like her late father: A man who sacrificed everything to raise her after her mother disappeared, broke, or gave up.
The world sees Nicolle as the apex of visual empowerment. But the world doesnât see:
The arguments with her boysâ father â about what being a real dad means.
The prayers whispered in the dark over a fevered forehead.
The way she ghosted the only man she maybe wanted, not because sheâs flaky â but because she doesnât know if wanting love makes her a bad mother.
The nights she tucks her boys in, then collapses into her bed, staring at the ceiling, heart full of ache, because she gave the world her strength but kept no one to hold hers.
They donât see the days her sons cry after watching her get slammed through buildings on TV.
Held by the throat. Left for dead. Motionless for seconds too long. Until she rises â because she has to.
They donât see the breakdowns. They donât see her flinch.
They assume she doesnât feel fear. But the truth?
She feels it every single time.
Sheâs not fearless. Sheâs never been. But fear is a luxury she doesnât have.
Thatâs a luxury for men. She is a god. And she will make any threat scream that truth â as she crushes it beneath her bleeding hands.
Because when demons invade, tyrants rise, and monsters descend, She suits up.
Not for hashtags. Not for feminism. Not for attention.
She suits up because the idea of her sons growing up in a world she couldâve fought for and didnât â is more terrifying than death itself.
And she will not let the universe teach her boys that their mother ever cowered.
đş THE TRIFECTA THAT MAKES ANY SUPERHERO NEXT-LEVEL:
Intimacy. Contradiction. Duty.
Intimacy gives them a soul â something they protect more than their own body.
Contradiction gives them depth â because perfection is forgettable, but conflict creates memory.
Duty gives them immortality â because we remember those who bled for more than applause.
Give a character that trifecta â and suddenly:
Sheâs not annoying. Sheâs haunting. Sheâs not fanfiction. Sheâs canon. Sheâs not shallow. Sheâs legend.
âď¸ Thatâs how you fix a weak character. You donât soften her. You give her something to fight that fists canât touch.
And suddenly?
Sheâs not a girlboss. Sheâs the last myth your enemies ever tell themselves before they die.
