Kim Sato wrote: 16 Jan 2023, 18:40 Heh, Kim was my first character on the site.
But I had to rewrite his entire background and personality when he got into Gryffindor.
I could have made it work for any house but Gryffindor.
Although it was based mainly on Slytherin or Ravenclaw due to how I wrote it.

Hufflepuff I could have made work by just tweaking a few things.
But Slytherin or Ravenclaw worked 100%.
Gryffindor was the only one that didn't work at all based off what I came up with.
Soooo I couldn't even tweak things.

I specifically wrote Kim in a Ravenclaw way, with Ravenclaw traits and personality.
But his parents were both Slytherin and wanted him to go into Slytherin.
When he got into Gryffindor, it just didn't work.
So I rewrote his parents, Kim's traits and personality and then it worked.

But yeah, I didn't intend for Kim to turn out this way.
He actually was going to turn out into a combination of Eun-ji, Hanako and Simon.

But after being sorted into Gryffindor and having to change everything about him, Kim ended up way different. I didn't plan for anything to happen for him that ended up happening for him.
i'd like to comment a bit on this perspective. my character has a lot of slytherin traits, despite being in gryffindor. when i created regina i wrote her as a snake house character, like you with kim. however, when i was sorted into gryffindor, i didn't think changing my character entirely to fit a certain stereotype was a good idea. it would destroy my character's originality and the beauty of 'being different than others'. i gave regina a little bit more gryffindor traits to make it work. and it did, perfectly. regina somehow still manages to be a gryffindor despite having a slytherin personality and ideals. she's a complex character and as her writer i am very proud.

this is all to say that guys, you don't have to drive yourself mad trying to change everything. as creative writers you can always make it work. you don't have to fit a certain stereotype to be in a house. a house's main traits don't define your character as a person.
