SnazzGary's Helpful Tips on Writing Characters Properly

When writing a fanfiction that has someone else's character in it,  make sure to research information about that character. Don't pull stuff out of nowhere. Actually researching. It's apart of a good story. If you don't research, you won't have a good story/characters.


Part 1

I will give examples to help you.

I will use my bby Kousuke from Btooom! as an experiment.
  
He is a great example of character actions screw ups. Kira Kousuke, or as everyone else knows him as, the psychotic little shit from Btooom!
Tbh, Kousuke is one of my favorites. Don't ask why. Because either A) I can't tell you, because I, myself, do not know why, or B) Because I blame his father for how he's turned out. You all seen how his father abused him, and, if you have been reading recent chapters, Kousuke actually cried because of it. My poor bby :'(

DO NOT make Kousuke a nice and caring person, because he isn't. He doesn't really know what being nice is. He has no empathy.

Tips on Kousuke: There is barely any Btooom! fanfics, and most of them are of Kousuke, surprisingly. But, what they do wrong is make Kousuke caring towards their OC. This is a big NOPE from Gary-Sensei. I will give you an excerpt from a fanfic. If you are the author, I bear nothing against you. If you do not want my opinion on this, please, comment saying so. Just not rudely, because I will reply in the same manner.

"Yeah Kousuke and I are friends!" I said matter-of-factly. I heard Kousuke laugh a little beside me, putting his hand on my arm

No.
We do not do this. 
I appreciate that someone else wants to write about Kousuke, but, let me tell you hwhat- Never, in any circumstance, would Kousuke be this friendly and intimate with someone. So far, he can't trust anyone. He most likely had a small group of friends (from what I've seen in his flashback), but they looked mostly male. I cannot, for the life of me, see a girl being friends with Kousuke. ( I would, tbh.) I don't wanna say this, but so far, even with his new found friends, it seem he treats women sexually , not friendly. You cannot deny this, for god's sake, the little shit got a raging boner when he was told one of his teammates is a porn star actress.


Please, please, please, remember to follow Part 1's tips; Never make a character "out-of-character". It makes the story less good, and you will receive harsh criticism from that particular character's fans. (Such as I, when it concerns my bby Kousuke.)
