How to Rock your Character Profile

So your ready to make an awesome protagonist but aren't sure where to start. Well, today, to get you started, we're going to do an example character profile, perfect for explaining those little darlings of yours. And to do so, we're using me as the example character.
Here we go:

BRITTANY OLDROYD
