THE CHARACTER PROFILE SEEMS TO BE QUITE CHILDISH, HOWEVER I CREATED IT WITH THE TARGET AUDIENCE IN MIND, AND THEREFORE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT IT WAS SUITABLE FOR AN AUDIENCE MEMBER TO READ, SHOULD THEY WANT TO PURSUE THE PRODUCTION FURTHER. I FEEL THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS ENHANCES CHARACTERIZATION, AND DOING IT IN THE STYLE OF OUR TARGET AUDIENCE HELPED ME UNDERSTAND THE AUDIENCE WE WOULD BE PERFORMING TO BETTER.
