dedicate a character a tragical past can be trickier than it looks . Done wrongly , it can add up off as forced , unenviable , or contrived . Avatar : The Last Airbender shows how to get it correct .
In a unexampled video by YouTube commentatorJust Write , the critic discusses an sixth sense into character reference backstory gain from his experience watching Avatar . Simply giving a character a lingering fight from the past , a ghost that follows them around , is n’t always safe enough to drive effective drama . The conjuration , he thinks , is to make a conflict that also conjure up the character ’s signified of ego - deserving and moral province . It ’s not enough that a spoiled thing bump . They also have to believe it ’s their fault .
I ’m wary of any have - to statements when it comes to stories . I do n’t think there are rule here , just ideas that act in some contexts but might not work in others . So I ’m not sure I fully concord with the Godhead here , though I see his dot . national conflicts incline to be full-bodied , more subtle , and more spectacular than purely external single . And , as he say , Avatar does backstory masterfully .
