Venetia’s vulnerability is the man who temped/cursed her into evil. Some of her sins make her vulnerable at times. Once, she had a fight with Adelinde after having a nightmare when Lindy was trying to comfort her. This was before she’d started to curse people using the Awakening. Lindy and Nettie were arguing when she said, “You are such a vile creature! No wonder Mum and Dad don’t love you. If you hadn’t run off with that demon, you wouldn’t be this way! We told you that he’d hurt you, but you wanted to be an idiot.” That was not the story, and caused Venetia to be deeply hurt.

She isn’t obviously the bravest badass type character you would expect to see in stories like this. She gets frightened fairly easily and she doesn’t have all the answers. She can come across as this weak little child. The reason being is, she’s only a teenager. She hasn’t got life figured out. So although she is being super brave and courageous to take on this task of basically saving her friends and family, she isn’t going to have all the answers. She gets frightened, she makes bad choices, she can be naive and this is fine because who the hell knew what they were doing when they were a teenager? No one would judge her for being like that however she does judge herself because she feels that this makes her unfit for the task at hand and makes her feel weak and ashamed of herself. It makes her vulnerable to manipulation and peer pressure and other things such as that because she is a teen! She hasn’t got her life figured out yet, but still, she is trying her hardest to save the human race. Which is incredible! She is braver than she knows and doesn’t realize it because she believes she shouldn’t be scared and she feels as if she is going to let everyone down.

Raziel

Raziel

I could talk about so many things right now. I’ve put this boy through hell.

His lack of a solid self-concept is at the root of his vulnerability, and has led to a lack of self-worth and a major fear of abandonment. He’s an open book and therefore doesn’t hide it, which has led to dangerous situations before, and also led to behaviors he isn’t proud of in hindsight. At one point, he was in a year-long relationship with someone who turned out to be abusive, at first only psychologically, but it escalated over time. His reluctance to leave him even after that didn’t go unnoticed by his “friend” at the time, who would help him leave the relationship so that he would feel indebted to her and be that much easier to manipulate into letting her get away with just about anything. Unfortunately, she was right about this, and he wouldn’t uncover the type of person she really was until after her death

(I’m keeping Raziel’s information in the same dropdown as his picture, since it contains mentions of abuse, which could be triggering to some. I’ve been considerably nicer to Serena, so her section is safe to read.)

Serena

Serena

Although she tries to pretend she’s calm and put-together 100% of the time, she has no clue what she’s doing in any given situation. Although she is genuinely intelligent, the successes she’s had are due mostly to her being a master bullshitter, despite being a perpetually terrified, awkward mess at heart. Unfortunately, she failed to hide this vulnerability at her first grad school interview, which led to a solid half hour of awkward rambling and much more time spent in self-reflective embarrassment. Needless to say, that wasn’t the university she ended up going to.

What is something that your character(s) wants to care about; something your character tries to care about, but can’t bring themsel(f)(ves) to care about?

Her father…
WARNING SPOILERS!!!

Her father is always away from home working, apparently. (I won’t spoil too much) however, she hears one night a bang. She comes downstairs to investigate to find her father sneaking out with a bag full of his possessions. She asks where he is going and eventually she finds out that he is abandoning her and her family to go onto the space ship that will supposedly save the human population. Though out the story she tries to find a way to forgive her father and tries to find a way to care about him. Whilst her sister and mother - angry of course - worry about him in space, She cannot find it in her heart to care about him. Even sometimes wishing he was in fact dead.
