Characters are the people, animals, or objects in a story. To understand a character, look at the character's traits, emotions, and motivations.
1. A character's traits are behaviors that show his or her personality.
2. Emotions are the feelings the character expresses in thoughts, words, and actions.
3. Motivations are the reasons a character does something. Motivations can be expressed through a character's thoughts, words, or actions.
