Character Development Thread

The downside of precise physical description is that it can exclude readers, if the type described does not fit their particular range of erotic fantasies. A more general description allows the reader to fill in the blanks.

I couldn't have said it better myself.
 
For me, one of the most important elements of character development is realism and making the character belivable. I hate it when I read a story and the flow is broken because the character does something that just completely doesn't make sense and my belief in the story is no longer suspended. So, to that end, I try to make my characters realistic with the feelings, emotions and actions I would imagine them having in any particular situation.
