SUPPORTING CHARACTER’S BACKSTORY: THE SWING

SUPPORTING CHARACTER’S BACKSTORY: THE SWING

Since I been working on my drafts I been   really intrigued  with one of the characters   that   I wasn’t before. It is the character  Mary.   She is  one of the antagonist of my story and  a werewolf  who has lived  for centuries  already.  She is not a main pov  character .  Only a supporting character .  However  I am working on a short story about her  called RED ENVY .

What intrigues me about her   is that she will often compare  Sirena with herself.  And tell Sirena  that she will end up like her eventually.

The reason why  is that her past is very tragic .   And like Sirena didn’t   know she was a werewolf at the start  of her life.  And  so throughout the  novel  it will be  hints of her past  seen through the eyes of Sirena and Xavier  .

Xavier because   he is a POV  character  and he has known Mary all of her life and  Sirena because she will have  a lot  of  interactions with her and has  to  eventually  work with her  on some level to get what she wants  from Mary.

One of the things that will be seen in glimpses of her past is a  swing.  And a  swing  is very significant  object to Mary’s past and to who she once was. 

This moreover will make her an important character throughout my novel.
