What are your trademark character archetypes?

I tend towards developing characters that are basically nothing too special in the worlds they're a part of--just regular people dealing with their own issues as opposed to legendary heroes and villains. As for archetypes (which kind of ties into this), my most potent would probably be...

• Perky, free-spirited thrill-seekers
• Cool-headed, calculative strategists
• Sarcastic, self-centered assholes

they all have big muscles, hot faces, and soff personalities

Monsters

- typically buff creeps/horrible and perverted asshats, that are power hungry 

- typically buff creeps/horrible and perverted asshats, that are power hungry but come across a bigger perverted asshat who shows them whose boss 

- baddies turned good/doing good deeds (maybe they dont wanna do the good deed but "HMPH FINEE") // alternatively, baddies being good for only one specific person(s) but no one else

- powerful beings being confined in someway, by a lesser powerful being >_>

- baddies getting whats coming to them/ what they deserve

- lots of fear and angst. so much angst 

- cute innocent beings being TOTALLY MONSTROUS HORRIFIC MONSTERS in a sweet innocent way :) 

...

ALRIGHT I GET IT! 

I NOTICE A TREND. SHEESH dontneedotcallmeoutonitokayJEEWIZZ

god i feel like I should probably keep all this to myself, yet here we are! 

Oh, one thing I noticed but I'm not sure I do anymore: my angrier characters generally have short hair while my calmer characters generally have long hair (if they're human).

I'm also a sucker for characters who are overly protective of their loved ones--- I have a ton of them, and even if it isn't an explicit character trait I always somehow sneak it in there. I'm terrible.

also i cant draw muscles so i just. die

Oof. Mine is usually "social outcast but they go on a cool magic adventure so it doesn't matter" or "I wanted to die but something cool happened and now I don't want to anymore".

Sometimes it's a mix of both. I think it's partly how I feel about myself XD I'd love to go on a magical adventure!

Edit: there's also "my parents are dead but that doesn't matter because they wouldn't be important anyways"

*anxious, shy boys
*who also happen to be really short/cute looking
*really serious assholes
*villain/ mean bois that like to mess with people

- Grumpy, moody dudes

- Beautiful but scary/intimidating ladies

-red heads 

*cynical but gullible slackers that try their best

*stoic or serious people that are also incredibly innocent

I tend to stick to negative personality traits OTL 

- Narcissistic/Vanity

-Jerk/Asshole/Sassy/Diva

-Uncomfortably creepy/unsettling

-Tends to judge others often/ talks to people like they are trash.

-Uhhhh alot of monsters/demons/ fantasy species. 

Idk why i really want a big toll boi with a sweet personality but my inner me screams 'ruin that'

uhh

-Some thing to do with art, music, that sort of stuff

-Pink and/or Purple

A lot of mine are accidental but:

• Someone who's dedicated their entire life to their profession, and probably collect something related to it
• Friends to lovers, but refusing to acknowledge each other as lovers. One person probably dragged the other into their fucked up life
  
• Really aggressive rabbits
• playing an instrument in high school
  
• non-human celebrities
• Asexual and/or Aromantic characters (then again I'm aro/ace so)
  
• acts overconfident and/or self-absorbed, but actually a nervous wreck
• glasses. tuxedos/suits. tuxedos/suits and glasses
  
• Smarter than they look/act
• non-humans interacting with humans
