Character Description

More Character Images

When adapting an existing character for a new work the character is often altered in transition from the source material. They might become nicer, meaner, heroic, nastier, more badass, a lot less badass, or smarter. Then there are these characters, who are actually made dumber; for example, a character who was The Smart Guy in the source material becomes The Ditz in the new one.
