General Instructions Add color and make it “pretty.” We are not all artists, but your drawings need to be your own. Do your best! DO NOT copy someone else’s traits. If you happened to come up with the same one, fine. Be honest. It’s your loss if you aren’t. Write neatly and proofread! What another character says about your character counts as the “S” in STEAL.
