We are VERY sorry for the very long break in our publishing, but you know, 'stuff' got in the way. Que Sera sera. What can I say? We had exams, report cards and all sorts of unimportant things such as that (err…what?) Also there was Chinese New Year…and a very strange spy movie we decided to film…and the cupcakes. (EVOL! EVOOOOOOOOOOL CUPCAKES!)

Anyways, here's our next chappie:

Other characters

Of course other characters need their own opinions and ideas, but the readers will find it much more interesting if your (immaculate) character's ideas are always superior. One way to do this is so:

Raven sat primly opposite Nasuada in the fat, pimpled leader's tent. Nasuada had called war council, but it quickly became apparent that she only wanted to have her attack planned for her as she stared hungrily at Murtagh who wrapped an arm around Raven's slender figure protectively and stared at her obsidian-black, lustrous locks that fluttered gently in the breeze and highlighted her grey, gold-blue-violet flecked eyes.
Raven listened politely as Nasuada opened the council.
"I think…we should attack Belatona with ….. (I couldn't read your writing at this point, sorry!)
She slurred, propping her feet up on the table.
Murtagh looked scandalized, Eragon cutely bemused and Raven stood up to grace the crowd with her melodic voice.
"Roslark and I shall talk to the villagers of Belatona and convince them to join the Varden" she announced "and if they do not listen, we will fight them. We will win,"
Everybody clapped and cheered and they all agreed that Raven's plan was best.

So you see! Not only are there some marvellous descriptions in Raven's council, but she has the winning idea as well. How NOT to do it: (CB: Magpie has returned! OLAY, OLAY, OLAY! JAm: So you've recovered then? CB: from what? JAm: your biscuit and tea withdrawal! CB: oh, THAT thing)

Magpie sniffed and nodded at Katrina who sat opposite her. She was the only sympathetic person Magpie could grab hold of, and she was going to stick to her like a slug does a flowerpot.
Moving closer she began to speak in a low whisper.
"I'm going to assassinate Eragon" ignoring Katrina's alarmed gaze, Magpie continued before she could get the wrong idea "with my love!"
Katrina sighed "yes…" she let out in deadpan.
Magpie giggled "I'll tie him up and force him to marry me!" she cried gleefully.
Katrina sighed, again. "It won't work,"
Magpie scowled "WHAT?" She screeched "so you don't like me plan do you?" Katrina leapt up and ran, narrowly missing the swirling high-heel that was hurled after her. (Little did Magpie know that these would be the unfortunate shoes she'd have to give up while climbing a tree)?
Magpie glowered at the ground. She wasn't a very good slug.

As you see here, Magpie has almost no description, there was a weak attempt at humour and the only other person in the area disagreed with Magpie's idea, hereby proving Magpie to be far inferior. THAT will simply NOT do. ESPECIALLY when you're (immaculate) character is being compared to a slug.

Another thing to consider is the nature of the canon (invented by CP) characters. Do you honestly believe that readers want to see your (immaculate) characters STRUGGLE to get the introverted Murtagh, or perhaps fail to seduce the INNOCENT Eragon? (CB: yeah kinda…) NO! (JAM; aww!) They want to see Murtagh open up like a book to your dear (and immaculate) character and fall instantly in love. They want to see Eragon forget Arya for your (immaculate) character. OOC is PRAISE dear friends! OOC, a precious number in the oh so difficult equation that makes up you amazingly breath taking super SUE fanfiction.

Raven strolled by through the forest, Murtagh at her side. She looked up at him and he smiled lovingly.
"Raven, I love you!" he told her. Raven kissed him lightly, smoothing her crimson dress. But Raven sensed something.
"What's wrong Murtagh?" she asked caringly. He had not yet spoken but the couple were, after two days, close enough that Raven could tell something was wrong (with her telekinesis! That's an allusion to My Immortal by the ways. *shudder* we called it an allusion? My, my, the flu has caught up with us!)
"Nasuada," he said fearfully, his voice breaking and his lower lip trembling. "She wants me to go to Galbatorix castle and out again to 'test' me, and then she wants to…reward me"
Raven gasped.

So you see, by putting Murtagh and Nasuada entirely out of character, you can make the situation interesting.

TOP TIP: don't mind if it doesn't make much sense, you can always backtrack later, or make a more detailed explanation.

(JAm: so basically…ruin the story? CB: oui madame!)

Now you not only know about Names, Appearance, Movement and Elegance, Speech, Descriptions, Personality but also what to do with other characters. We are over half way through the guide and as you now know the most necessary basics of a good (quit forgetting immaculate!) fanfiction character, we thought we could name you some amazing SUE stories:

Imma wiserd
My Immortal

Though they have been taken off Fanfiction, for reasons unknown to mankind, there are many reposts of them …

Posting will hopefully become a little more frequent again after this ;D so yeahs…
CB: hey, whatever happened to the slave-driver dude?
JAm: Oh he…I don't know.
CB: I'm stunned!
JAm: what?
Cb: you admitted you didn't know something! *runs around the room cheering and dancing…badly*
JAm: why did I bring you back to life again?
CB: what are you talking about?
JAm: your biscuit breakdown, that's what!
Cb: do we have any biscuits?
JAm: do you ever listen ACTUALLY listen to me?
CB: pardon?
JAm: URGH!

As always; review! And we haven't had many suggestions about 'extra chappies'! and don't go about forgetting about our poll! It's very sensitive and will get VERY upset…(this is first-hand knowledge! *rubs stab wound*)
