Notes:

 

If you should wish to you may fill in the following interview which looks at the characters views of ONE other character in the story. This can be filled in as though the interview were taking place after the characters first meeting (first impressions) or after the characters have known each other for a while. This simple gives a little more insight into the characters personality and their relationships with others but of course is not absolutely necessary. Personally I find it useful to carry out such an interview but other may simply find it a useless waste of time. I leave it up to you to decide.
