So I’m writing another series. No surprise there, at least not if you know me.
I wrote my first series on an idea, and let it reveal itself to me as I wrote. That was a good a method for the specific idea I was writing, because I was completely creating my own fantasy world. In that world I came up with a villain so dangerous and terrifying she even scared me, and had to stop writing a few times because I actually thought I was going to have a heart attack.
Anyway, I can’t do that this time because I’m not creating a world from scratch. My story takes place in New York City, because it fits my main character. My main character is a lone wolf type of protagonist. She lives in orphanage in Manhattan, because she has two different colored eyes(blue and gray) so her parents thought she was a freak and didn’t want her. She is constantly stirring up trouble, running away, shoplifting, getting into fistfights (and winning them) she has no friends because people are scared of her.
What she doesn’t know is her eyes are not freakish, they are gray and blue because she can control and create lightning. She figures this out eventually.
What would some traits(physical or personality wise) be of an antagonist who is magical, terrifying, and someone this girl would be willing to stop(even at the price of her life) who can fit into the real world.
