Title: Module 6 Instructor Notes- Read First
Course: IN 162 Game, Storyline and Character Development > Section: Module 6

When planning your world, as we have discussed at great length, it is important to include how each character "fits" into the world.  How they connect to one another and etc.

It is important to decide who is related to who both literally and just connected by acquaintance.  A database is the easiest way to do this.  The database you will build for this week is one just simply listed on paper.  List each individual character along with who they are connected to.  List how they are connected. Relationships should be disclosed whether it be a personal type (wife, husband and etc.) or the relationship is more "business" (boss, worker, assistant and etc.).

I would like you to create this assignment for this week in Word.  Use lists as in the example below to create the paper.  We will be working with this list next week as well when we make it more visually appealing to the masses!  Take your time... find the connections and let your story grow! Please know... this list could he HUGE!!  The more connections on a character... the larger the list.  Make it big but at the same time... please don't overwhelm yourself!
