Here’s her character build:

- warrior who is from northern Alethkar, whose sister died when they were young and he vowed to protect her

- was arrested, spent time on the bridge crews before escaping

- gruff, asshole man who values protecting those who cannot protect themselves

- loves the idea of having a spren who reminds him of his younger sister

- named Dalanek

ANA, DO NOT READ THIS!

You are one of the two examples but skip this pls

One of them chose to make a sheltered Veden woman who seeks out worldly sholarship while starting a relationship that ends very poorly, and lots of lies. She seeks the truth of her past, is an artist and does not know the political things happening around her. So essentially Shallan, she's even a lightweaver too.

Another player made kind of a younger Dalinar Kholin, family issues with an older sibling, climbing the ranks of social hierarchy through military service, betrothed from another country who gets blown up, leading to an addiction issue. And being part of machinations beyond his understanding, leading to him learning things men usually don't.

Both of them came up with their characters based on a broader description of the world and some cultural backgrounds.

Imagine finding out you have 90 minutes to tie up a love story that's developed over thousands of years. You create something beautifully in character and completely on point for the plot. You pay homage to the original writer's legacy in a fitting and poetic way and create an ending that not only shows the depth of two people's love for each other but the wider love they have for the thing that brought them together in the first place.

And then you go online to find the loudest outcry is that everyone hates it and "THEY DIDN'T EVEN KISS!"
