Character Layout: Emotional Architecture, Arc, & Transformation

@moonpriestess

Emotional Architecture, Arc, & Transformation - Primary Emotion: The feeling they most often evoke or suppress (e.g., shame, desire, rage). - Emotional Mask: What they show the world to protect their vulnerability. - Trigger Points: Specific stimuli that unravel their composure or pierce their defenses. - Threshold Moment: The scene or choice that fractures their old self and births the new. - Intimacy Pattern: How they approach closeness—avoidant, possessive, performative, or yearning. - Final State: Not just what they become, but what they cost themselves to become it.
