Writing samples - Characters

Stories are only as interesting as the characters they happen to. The following samples are character profiles taken from Wonderbox: The Adventure Maker (Aquiris).

Wonderbox: The Adventure Maker

The Lunatic

Do not be fooled by the swirling glasses, awkward gadgetry, and tin foil hat – these are actually precautions, in case of another encounter with visitors from outer space. For even though many would shun his stories and dub him the Lunatic, he considers himself a scientist of the strange and the obscure, unearthing evidence of life among the stars.

For the truth, as they say, is out there. And he intends to prove it.

The Bunny

A brave little bunny with a heart of gold and a bit of a hearing problem. Some people tried to make a fuss about that, but joke’s on them: she can’t hear them when they try to tell her what she can or can’t do.

Now she’s off to change the world, and nothing can stop her – save for those delicious carrots along the way. But will that be enough to quench her appetite for adventure?

The Good Boy

Whoever said a dog is a man's best friend must have met this one in particular, though they missed the full picture. Good Boy has tried to make friends with everything from exploding grubs to waterfalls. Whether animal, vegetable, or mineral — no one and nothing is safe from his affection. Or his banjo.

But maybe that’s what they call a true test of friendship…
