Do research into aspects of your character’s life. Create a list of ten things that you learn from the research. Create a “because of that” list for each of the ten items. Turn three of those items into playable actions.

Notes

• A good place for research is the children’s section of a library because complex ideas are broken down into simple concepts.
• When doing research, don’t take notes. Read the material, then write down what was memorable.
• Don’t limit your research to written materials. Investigate art and images as part of your research.
