Flib Bigboat

can I drop one of my characters if they don't turn out right?
Life is often like pushing a luggage cart through the airport. Sometimes I feel ridiculous, sometimes I look ridiculous, but I just keep pushing that luggage cart, and hoping I'm generally heading in the right direction.
Always keep your word, always finish what you started, and never go unprepared.
In a hole in the ground, there once lived a hobbit.
It's your birthday today, everybeast say hooray, there's a cat licking your birthday cake, it's your birthday today!
Long live the RRR!

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.

While you can certainly drop a character, be willing to try improving the character first. Try different angles, rewrite backstory, expand on minor details, etc. Don't give up simply because it didn't work out the first time! My original-character-turned-fan-character Sylvia Johnson wouldn't exist if I simply gave up every time the story ended up bad (I've scrapped every original story with her, and now she's a Sonic fan character, simply because I couldn't let her go, and honestly, this one's turning out pretty good!)

Riley: Mountain lion, Sonic the Hedgehog
Amara: African wild dog, The Lion King/The Lion Guard
Masika: Eurasian river otter, Redwall
Mara: Wolf, general
