Character development 1 (Frederick)

I contacted a psichotherapist in order to get information about my character's personality and derivated behaviours. Based on the ancient sufi teaching of the enneagram, which is nowadays applied to psichology, this psichotherapist suggested me that my character belongs to the "social subtype" of the "type 3" personality.

This subtype characteristics incluye:

- He is a person that needs the world to recognize his value. When that value lacks in the childhood, it gets overdeveloped when older.
- Usually a brilliant image of himself to compensate for a poor childhood.
- Usually grown up in a situation in which he was under considered, so that it takes him to compensate that lack.
- A profound feeling of emptiness and low-self steem within himself.
- His natural desire for being important develops into a passion and lives for the prestige, the need to be recognized and his personal importance.

These are just some of the characteristics that I'll have to play with when developing the script, which have been by the way quite important in order to develop my ideas.
When you know your character, the things that happen to him just come by themselves.
