A tip for excellent writing I just learned: Don't introduce a character with their Dramatic Backstory. It makes readers go "oh alright this is the Dramatic Background Story Character" and establishes a baseline of Tragic, either for the story as a whole or this character in particular. With no contrast of light and dark, pure darkness isn't impactful, it just looks like the absence of anything to look at.
If you really want someone's dramatic backstory to hit the audience like a gut punch, let them get to know the character first. That way the dark backstory doesn't come off as a description of who they are, but an explanation to why they are the way they are. Bonus points for connecting it to something that's already been established as a part of the character - what a devastating blow to suddenly put together that hold on, that funny quirky thing that they always do is a fucking trauma response.
not my art but i am obsessed with this omg oarfish
My train was late. AGAIN.
I think that if Carrot and Laios ever met, the fact that they are very similar would be very apparent to literally everyone except them. Like Carrot would file Laios away in the same category as one of various museum curators ("a real expert on the study of eating monsters!"), while Laios would think of Carrot as someone similar to Kabru. Meanwhile Angua just saw two people have an in-depth twenty-minute conversation about dwarven battle bread and is just like "oh god, there's two of them."
I turn to Ares.
