Need character help + what do you think of this?

Im writing a story about 3 6yrold kids who are the best of friends til one day, 2 is kidnapped. 1 and 3 spend ages looking for her and their parents called the police and organised search parties and everything. Nothing. 10 years later, 1 and 3 have completely forgotten about 2, who is seeking revenge. She thinks they didn't care, they didn't want to find her.. Etc. Don't want to give too much away.

Anyhow I need some random traits (as many as possible please, from those I'll create my characters) and names. Preferably Japanese or unusual ones.

1 %26amp; 2 are girls, 3 %26amp; 4 are boys.



Next question.

WDYT of this? http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a> %26lt; The plot.

To that ^ I want to add a character called Risqu茅. She has long deep red (not dark) hair and one green, one red eye. She covers the red eye with an eyepatch. She acts good but really she's working for the bad side. She's sneaky and untrustworthy. The only ones who suspect her are Ryuu and Yuki. I need an animal that reflects her personality. Fox, dog, dragon, cat, and mouse are unavailable.



Questions:

1: Need random traits and Japanese/unusual (any culture) names.

2: What do you think of Risqu茅?

3: I need names for the teams. I need a name for the good guys team and one for the bad guys. Preferably ones which for short you can use an abbreviation. Example: T.E.S.T. - The. Extra. Special. Team. (%26lt; don't suggest that tho, it's just an example.)

4: Would you read those stories? Or watch it if it's a movie?Need character help + what do you think of this?
My advice is to stop thinking of characters as having "traits". Sims have traits, not real people. People are more complicated than being nice or mean and dark haired or light haired. Imagine a more complicated and realistic person.


Reply to additional details:

Well, I've given you the right advice; choose to accept it or not. Think about it. Anybody can throw two traits together. Do you think Dickens sat at his desk with a list of traits and randomly chose a handful of them when he was creating some the best characters in the English language?
