Because of character development and because of... stuff!
Try to keep to one or two characters so it doesn't get too confusing.
Script form, I guess, because that's always the funniest, but 1st of 3rd POV if you want.
So here's my little darling Enigma, because I don't even know her real name and that's going to be kind of important.
Name: Enigma
Secret Identity: I don't know
Age: 15
Appearance: 5'8", Brown Hair, Green Eyes
Personality: Stubborn. Sometimes nosy. Mostly nice.
submitted by SC, age FOR NARNIA, ALLONS-Y!

Yay! My character is in bad need of development, so anyway:
Name: Liza (95413*)
Age: 13
Appearance: African. Long curly black hair that's usually tied back with twine. Very tall. Brown Eyes. Leg was shattered when she was 6 and didn't heal properly. Walks with crutches.
Personality: Tomboy. Rebellious.
(October 21, 2012 - 5:03 pm)
Yay! Nano started! But anyway, the incident with the leg happened when she was 8, not six.

Name: Kaede
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Appearance: Wavy chin-length dull brown hair, black eyes. Really short and thin.
Personality: Very quiet. Always seems sad for some reason. Doesn't interact with people well. Seems afraid to look people in the eye, especially people who have been hurt in their past.
What Her Deal Is: She is cursed with the vision of people's past. If you meet her gaze, she is instantly transported in her mind to your worst experiences as you. Not good.

Name: Ryk
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Appearance: Spiky black hair, blue eyes. Pretty tall, usually wearing a collared coat.
Personality: Highly scientific, over-analyses everything unto death. Arrogant, dislikes being corrected. He's actually pretty smart.
What His Deal Is: He's a normal guy. Really. He is.
*Oh, and a Note* These guys aren't from M&M. These guys popped into my head into a cool new idea and I've changed my novel. So there. Also, these guys aren't mains, which is good. My MCs kinda annoy me.

Wait, if he was born in 1981 and joined the army at 20, wouldn't he have joined in 2001? So if he died three years later, wouldn't be 2004, not 2009?
(October 24, 2012 - 9:13 am)
Yeah, I forgot to change that. I originally had him die in 2004, but I wanted it to be more recent, hence 2009. Forgot to fiddle with the math. He was actually born in '86, joined in 2006. Sorry. Bad at that kind of thing.
(October 24, 2012 - 4:40 pm)
So are we gonna get started or what? I'm waiting because I have no ideas.
(October 25, 2012 - 7:21 pm)
I'm not doing NaNo, but I have to write a suspense story for English, and I really need to develop this character before I write it, or Sonny/Leota Syndrome's gonna occur and she's gonna change. So please let me do this. I would use the story for NaNo, but it the plot only works in a short story
Name: Viola Garnet
Age: 14
Looks: Dirty blond hair, blue eyes, just above average height
Personality: Normally nice, smart but revealed to have an explosive temper and to be really stubborn
So yeah, looks and personality wise, she's the evil manifestation of me.
Background: She murders her friend, but hits her head and forgets she even wanted to murder her. Tries to solve the mystery, figures out she did it, is all like "Well, I guess I need to go burn this evidence."
Other: Based after Poe's Montresor. (gets crazy revenge for something like an insult) (Speaking of Poe, I have decided Edgar Allen Poe, Ray Bradbury, and John Green are my literary heroes) Sonny and Leota guest star for comic relief.
(October 26, 2012 - 9:45 pm)
*GASP* Ray Bradbury is one of MY literary heroes, too! Yaay!
Montresor... The Cask of Amontillado? We had to read that last year.
(October 28, 2012 - 4:37 pm)
@L
*hug*
And yesh to The Cask of Amontillado. I loved reading the story in English, and then I figured out it inspired scenes in The Haunted Mansion and I was all like, YEEEEESSSSS!
(October 28, 2012 - 8:03 pm)
That's pretty awesome.

As this seems to have rather petered out, I shall add my character. Just because.
She's this character that I never meant to introduce, she wasn't even supposed to exist in the story, and all of a sudden she showed up in my MC's kitchen. So here she is:
Name: Evangeline Samantha Thomas, known as Sam.
Age: 38 or so (I haven't really decided yet.)
Appearance: Rather on the short side, 5'3 or so, dark brown eyes, black, prematurely-graying hair, really big glasses and a has a tendency to wear jangly jewelry and shawls (think Professor Trelawney-ish)
Personality: Very bubbly, chatty, talkative, slightly stir-crazy. Never without some sort of string or yarn project. Kind of the odd-lady-next-door type.
Other: Has a daughter, Laura, who is fifteen years old and hasn't left the house since she was six. Probably the reason why Sam is a little bit odd--Laura is rather high-maintenance, and sometimes Sam doesn't see anyone but Laura for weeks at a time. Laura is also a little bit odd.

Liza (her name is Zee in my Nano [ plain italics is the other part of her brain, Ilene. {Ilene insistis on being called Gretchen}]): My life is falling apart. Of course, dear. Please be quiet. Please be quiet, Gretchen. Yeah right.

Writers block is slowly corroding my story.

Dying thread needs help!
Name: Scooter (actually named Sylvia) Davenport
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Story: A senior in high school. Plays trombone in the marching band. Has a poltergeist named Moz who follows her around and is obnoxious.
Personality: A tomboy, not really very talkative. Her dream is to become a journalist, and she's pretty nosy sometimes. Really hates being called Sylvia.
Moz~
Not enough to put in a normal pro. He's a poltergeist who bothers Scooter all of the time. Generally apathetic, occasionally enthusiastic about random things (the idea behind a poltergeist is that they exist purely to annoy their "hosts" - the only people who can see them, and it has to be your specific 'geist. Nobody else can see it. And they talk, too.)
