Writer's Advice and Feedback Group discussion

The title basically says it all. I can't think of many flaws for this character, and I just don't know....this is the profile I made. The story is a dystopia. Thanks in advance for any advice. :)

Name: Nettie Hartford
Age: 13
Appearance: dark hair like her brother’s, but Nettie’s is curly. Wide grey eyes, serious expression.
History: After the explosion, she was presumed dead.
Likes: Grey, black, the old [modern] days
Dislikes: bright colors, anything that’s new..
Greatest dream: To meet someone—anyone—from her past and prove to them that she’s alive.
Worst fear: Finn [her brother] dying
Attributes: she is charming and uses it to her advantage in a crisis, but can fight as well as any boy; in fact she fights slightly better than her brother. She would do anything to protect the right people.
Flaws: can be too trusting, and she doesn't always know who the right people are.
Other: she can levitate small objects and see vague glimpses of the future.

*bump* Sorry if I seem impatient, I don't mean to come across that way. :)

What is an Mary sue character?

A Mary Sue is a character that just seems annoyingly perfect. :)

I need more details on personality and flaws and attributes

I haven't developed my character yet. This is all I have, but thanks. :)

Edited.

My advice is to developed your character all the way. Know everything about her and than repay a very detailed profile

Hey Raevyn, sorry for the late reply

I completely understand your problem (trust me, I have made many a Mary Sue and not known how to make them less annoyingly perfect). Here's a list of character flaws that you could maybe use to make them less perfect: http://amandaonwriting.tumblr.com/pos...

Thank you! :D

Thanks. :D
