Tristan's Profile
I have made a Character Profile for Tristan McCall, one of the main characters from my story, Dead Raiser. Text in brackets means that's something that applied when he was alive.
I'm also going to be working on a Character Interview which is essentially me talking to Tristan. A bit weird but ever since making him, Tristan has been murmuring his own witty comments about everything in my ear, so why not let him have a bit of a chance to chat outside of the story.
