Character Profile Template for Writers

Plan characters worth rooting for (or rooting against).

This all-in-one character profile template helps you turn vague character ideas into full, believable people. Whether you’re building your hero’s emotional arc or just need to remember their eye color (again), this template keeps it all in one place.

No more scattered notes or half-baked traits.

From personality to backstory, from values to the lie they believe—this character template gives you everything you need to build compelling, story-ready characters. And yes, we even included a section for their weird little quirks and emotional baggage. You’re welcome.

🧠 What’s Inside

  • The Basics
    Name, aliases, age, appearance, abilities, and quirks.
  • Family & Relationships
    Build out parents, siblings, and other connections that shape your character.
  • Personality & Inner Conflict
    Outline your character’s goals, flaws, strengths, values, motivations, and the one thing they’d never do to get what they want.
  • Backstory Builder
    Track key origin details and write a short synopsis of their past to guide their future.
  • Character Arc
    Map their transformation across the story with sections for their Lie, Truth, Moral Shift, and Changed Values.
  • The Antagonist Angle
    Define how your character’s opponent challenges their weaknesses and what values they fight for.
