What does your protagonist and antagonist look at at the beginning of the book and at the end of the book?
Give them distinctive tags - or physical traits
What journey will your protagonist go on? How will they change internally?
Give your protagonist some sort of action that helps the reader understand who they are.
Think about the relationship your protagonist has with other characters - romantic, divisive, parental, rivals, etc.
Give them strong opinions - let them be vocal.
And don't forget the characteristics of a dystopian character.
The Dystopian Protagonist
• often feels trapped and is struggling to escape.
• questions the existing social and political systems.
• believes or feels that something is terribly wrong with the society in which he or she lives.
• helps the audience recognizes the negative aspects of the dystopian world through his or her perspective.
