10 Flaws to Give Your Perfect Characters to Make Them Human

If you're tired of the usual vices like arrogance or impatience, here are some unique (or at least less basic) character flaws to give your perfect characters: 

Pathological Altruism

A character so obsessed with helping others that they end up doing more harm than good. Their inability to let others grow or face consequences creates tension.

2. Moral Narcissism

A character who sees themselves as morally superior to others, constantly justifying selfish or harmful actions because they believe they have the moral high ground.

3. Chronic Self-Sabotage

A character who intentionally undermines their own success, perhaps due to deep-seated feelings of unworthiness, pushing them into frustrating, cyclical failures.

4. Emotional Numbness

Rather than feeling too much, this character feels too little. Their lack of emotional response to critical moments creates isolation and makes it difficult for them to connect with others.

5. Fixation on Legacy

This character is obsessed with how they’ll be remembered after death, often sacrificing present relationships and happiness for a future that’s uncertain.

6. Fear of Irrelevance

A character-driven by the fear that they no longer matter, constantly seeking validation or pursuing extreme measures to stay important in their social or professional circles.

7. Addiction to Novelty

Someone who needs constant newness in their life, whether it’s experiences, relationships, or goals. They may abandon projects, people, or causes once the excitement fades, leaving destruction in their wake.

8. Compulsive Truth-Telling

A character who refuses to lie, even in situations where a lie or omission would be the kinder or more pragmatic choice. This flaw causes unnecessary conflict and social alienation.

9. Over-Identification with Others' Pain

Instead of empathy, this character feels others' pain too intensely, to the point that they can’t function properly in their own life. They’re paralyzed by the suffering of others and fail to act effectively.

10. Reluctant Power

A character who fears their own strength, talent, or influence and is constantly trying to shrink themselves to avoid the responsibility or consequences of wielding it.

Since I wouldn't accept that OG Modern Warfare gave us Captain MacTavish, only for reboot Soap to never survive past Sargeant (!?😩) I've been sitting on a theory that Black Ops 6 might have actually confirmed and I can't keep this to myself any longer!

This could be spoilery for BO6's campaign, so if you haven't played it yet, come back later, maybe? 👀

In the "Emergence" mission in BO6 you are introduced to the effects of the "Cradle" a virus created by a disbanded division of the CIA, known as "Pantheon". A virus that is later weaponised and you experience first hand what this yellow gas can do... 🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️🧟

Some folks voiced their displeasure about how un-cod it was... personally this mission was all the confirmation I needed that maybe my working theory wasn't as far fetched as I thought it could be 👀

I was going to ramble and infodump all the little things I'd been making note off, but instead I decided to make it a thing... With a Blender piece I did, because why not? 🙌🏻

Konni Research Division

Date: October 17, 2024

Project Lead: Dr. Aleksandr Gustev, Head of Advanced Pathological Research

————————————————————————

PANTHEON NEUROGAS “CRADLE VARIANT K" CASE STUDY: SERGEANT JOHN “SOAP” MACTAVISH

————————————————————————

Current Project Objectives

Konni Research Division’s objectives are to further refine the Cradle compound—specifically, the “Cradle Variant K” strain—to allow for long-term memory suppression, reality manipulation, and controllable cognitive reprogramming.

————————————————————————

Following the success in London, Cradle Variant K far surpassed our initial expectations. Not only were we successful in deceiving the Task Force into believing Sergeant MacTavish was KIA at the hands of the Commander, we have laid the groundwork for further applications of the Pantheon's weaponised neurogas on a larger scale.

Additionally, the changes made to the Cradle strain appears to have maintained the diminished uncontrollable rage as observed in our earlier controlled trials.

Curiously, the illusion may have directly fueled the sense of vengeance that drove Captain Price to retaliate in an unexpected manner.

By executing General Shepherd in a rogue act, he ultimately severed Task Force 141 from official military backing and initiated a sequence of destabilizing events.

Further testing will be required to ascertain if Price’s reckless actions were a direct result of being exposed to the Cradle’s illusion or an emotional response to failing to protect one of his men.

Regardless, the Commander's suggestion to target MacTavish for the next phase of the experiment has certainly proven fruitful.

————————————————————————

Test Subject Conditioning Protocol

Subject Identification

Name: Sergeant John “Soap” MacTavish

Classification: Task Force 141 Operative

Current Status: High-priority test subject under secure containment

MacTavish was expected to perform complex missions while fully immersed in an artificial narrative, where he believes he is combating a zombie outbreak as part of “Operation Deadbolt.” This ongoing experiment aims to suppress higher cognitive recall.

————————————————————————

Manipulated Perceptions and Key Figures in the Simulation

Kate Laswell’s Role and Conditioning: Laswell, similarly detained and conditioned, was initially positioned as MacTavish’s operational coordinator.

Her familiar voice served as a mission directive channel, further reinforcing his immersion in the Deadbolt narrative. However, Laswell’s stability deteriorated during preliminary conditioning cycles, necessitating her withdrawal from active mission guidance and her relegation to containment status.

With further extensive conditioning sessions being required, (due to her apparent excessive resistance training under the CIA) in preparation to reinstate a reconditioned Laswell within a disavowed TF141.

Confident they will attempt to rescue one of their own, a chance to witness the prolonged effects of the Cradle and MacTavish’s absence on our targets should present itself.

We hypothesise that a growing lack of external support will surely weaken morale further in preparation for the Commanders final stand against Farah Karim’s forces and her devalued allies.

Viktor Zakhaev as Adversary: Viktor Zakhaev, eliminated by Captain John Price circa 2020, has been reinstated as a familiar antagonist within MacTavish’s induced perception.

Konni scientists strategically inserted Zakhaev’s persona into the subject’s narrative, where he functions as a persistent threat linked to a global threat.

This resurrected adversary fuels MacTavish’s sense of purpose and suppresses any awareness of the Commander’s true objectives. By sustaining a continuous “enemy” figure, we maintain an environment that supports heightened vigilance, while suppressing any remnants of personal connections.

Sergei Ravenov as Mentor: Historical data on Sergei Ravenov, a former Soviet operative and Cradle test subject during the Cold War, has been utilized as a psychological anchor within MacTavish’s mental construct.

Footage of Ravenov’s conditioning sessions has been repurposed to present him as a veteran mentor in the fight against the "Undead," a fabricated threat tied to an earlier experimental initiative known as Aetherium (an internal code once used for the Cradle virus).

Ravenov serves as an authority, the “Dark Aether Expert,” providing MacTavish with insights on how to “combat the outbreak,” further reinforcing the constructed narrative and validating the subject’s current mission reality.

Despite the risks of introducing an unknown persona, the results will establish how important familiar anchors are to the Cradle test subjects.

————————————————————————

Subject Response and Reality Simulation: Operation Deadbolt

MacTavish has demonstrated exceptional receptivity to Cradle-Variant K, which induces controlled delusional experiences, allowing him to perceive a fictitious outbreak setting.

Under the codename “Operation Deadbolt,” MacTavish believes he is conducting a tactical offensive against “infected” entities across Urzikstan.

Farah Karim’s militia, in reality, are recast as hostiles in this outbreak scenario, instilling a sense of urgency and commitment in MacTavish as he pursues mission directives designed to ultimately bring Urzikstan under Konni control.

In this altered reality, MacTavish perceives himself as an essential operative within Operation Deadbolt, believing he is containing and eradicating “dimensional breaches” and combating the spread of Aetherium. Laswell’s pre-recorded directives have been integrated into mission audio logs, lending an air of authenticity to the simulation.

————————————————————————

Findings and Psychological Anchoring

To ensure compliance, MacTavish’s memories have been regressed to 2021—a period prior to the formation of his stronger bonds with Task Force members, but where his potential truly began to establish.

This strategic temporal regression isolates MacTavish from critical relationships that might disrupt his immersion in the fabricated narrative and allow his growth to better align with Konni standards.

Under these conditions, he perceives himself as a newly recruited operative, acting as “Head of Strike Team” under Operation Deadbolt, with diminished awareness of his personal history.

Lieutenant Simon “Ghost” Riley as an Unintended Psychological Anchor: During testing, sporadic cognitive resistance has continued to manifest, specifically when MacTavish encounters stimuli reminiscent of Lieutenant Riley. Notably, Riley’s masked “Ghost” persona.

Although he cannot consciously access these memories, MacTavish displays signs of awareness regression, often reverting to behaviors and beliefs beyond 2021.

Such interactions appear to intermittently destabilize Cradle’s hold over MacTavish. The bond with his former ally has proven resilient, risking periodic disruptions in mission adherence

Countermeasures and Long-Term Stability Adjustments: To mitigate the effects of these “Ghost-associated triggers.”

Konni researchers are employing additional neuro-blocking compounds aimed at obscuring memory pathways tied to Riley. Continuous reconditioning sessions, using Ravenov’s image as an alternate anchor, have thus far yielded moderate success, although sustained behavioral control will likely necessitate further neurological suppressants or targeted memory erasure.

————————————————————————

Conclusion and Tactical Recommendations

Summary of Findings

High Receptivity: MacTavish’s response to Cradle-Variant K exceeds projections, with 95% adherence to mission parameters and minimal cognitive resistance when Ghost-associated stimuli are absent.

Effective Delusional Construct: The subject accepts the Operation Deadbolt scenario as reality, performing his role without critical assessment.

Resistance Countermeasures: The occasional reversion to past memory states requires enhanced countermeasures. Ravenov’s role as mentor and Zakhaev’s reintroduced presence are proving effective in reinforcing the subject’s altered perception.

Recommended Next Steps

1. Strengthen Aetherium Construct: Enhance the Dark Aether narrative by introducing mission-specific “dimensional breaches” to maintain environmental consistency.

2. Memory Reinforcement Sessions: Increase frequency of Ravenov-anchored memory sessions to deepen the mentor-student dynamic and prevent memory destabilization tied to Ghost.

Laswell’s voice should remain a final fallback command anchor in all simulations; if required, brief audio segments can be played during moments of cognitive resistance to redirect the subject’s focus back to mission directives, until a deep fake can be established.

Project Status: ACTIVE – Phase IV trials awaiting authorisation for continuation of field deployment.

Suggested Operation Target: Popov Power Plant.

"Adult transsexualism is such a malignant condition (in the sense of irreversibility) that we obviously must apply our beliefs as if they were proven fact. (Stoller, 1970, p. 279) ... Fortunately, [it] may be treatable and reversible in the small child ... treatment must be immediately instituted so that a more normal gender identity can be developed. (Stoller, 1969, p. 140)"

If trans identity could not be cured, clinicians and researchers debated whether it could be prevented by intervening in childhood. The above quotes represent the perspectives of mental health research clinicians who sought to prevent adult trans identification with childhood interventions. These professionals described adult trans identity as a pathological outcome. To this end, interventions such as the Feminine Boy Project sought to prevent gender expressions in children which did not conform to societal norms (R. Green, 1987). This NIMH-funded study lasting over a decade used behavior modification and talk therapy to discourage feminine behaviors in boys, which researchers termed “the Sissy Boy Syndrome” (R. Green, 1987) [...] An endocrinologist at the First International Symposium on Gender Identity told other researchers: “these people are ill, they have a disease, they need to be helped,” but what “we want to do is treat the cause” (EEF, 1969c, pt. 2). He thought transsexualism was likely caused by hormonal exposure in the intrauterine period; once screening of an infant's sex in utero became available, injections of androgens for male fetuses and anti-androgens for female fetuses could be given to “divide our population into real males and real females.” The process, he said, would be the same as giving “a pregnant woman iron or folic acid to prevent her anemia”

The Lacanian ego or self is permanently alienated from itself, like Narcissus, enchanted with an image that is far more organised than the perceiving subject at the time of its adoption. In Lacan’s view, this uncomfortable split, at the heart of human personality, is the true Freudian legacy.

The Lacanian ego or self is permanently alienated from itself, like Narcissus, enchanted with an image that is far more organised than the perceiving subject at the time of its adoption. In Lacan’s view, this uncomfortable split, at the heart of human personality, is the true Freudian legacy. From the British perspective, one might say that it is a view of the ego permanently moving into projective identification with its own ideal, a perspective not without value in thinking about narcissistic pathology and here shown clearly in Lacan’s description of the baby. The bad news, according to Lacan, is that the human ego is always precocious, always guilty of a premature appropriation, always coloured with narcissistic compromise, fundamentally wedded to a lie. The hard-working realist of Hartmann’s adaptation only appears if it is sufficiently enslaved to an ideal it calls its own. For many analysts, this view was at bottom too dark.

Dear Sephiroth: (a letter to a fictional character, because why not) #80

I rested for most of the day today. In so doing, I had a realization.

Truth be told, on a near-constant basis, I'm plagued with a wide variety of doubts and insecurities, like most anyone with a trauma history. Thanks to the power of "pathological projective identification" (I'm so glad that this is a phrase that I now know!), I had been forced to internalize, as a small child, the notion that I am fundamentally defective, wrong, strange, and inferior to all other humans. While I am at a point now where I understand rationally that all of this is false, these messages have been ground into my bones, and I am still trying to root them out and replace them with better things. Just because something gets ground into our bones doesn't mean that that's who we truly are or who we have to remain forever.

I thought about my biological family, with whom I've severed all ties. I've thought about my own growth and learning over the years. I imagine if they saw me now, they would look at me and see a very stupid, naive, and weak person who has all the wrong ideas about how the world works and about people in general.

And you know? Old me would have deferred to their judgment of who I am and what I stand for instead of trusting my own. Old me would have tried to adjust myself in order to better suit their definition of what is the "correct" way to be a human, to change my worldview to something harsher in order to better suit their definition of what "strength" is.

It's not quite that bad for me anymore, but still, when I think about the notion that they would most likely vehemently disapprove of who I'm becoming, I feel more than a little sad, and still a part of me wonders if maybe they were right about me all along - that I'm nothing more than an oblivious weakling with poor judgment, who is far too open, and does not have enough perspective for my perceptive abilities or my general manner of thinking, feeling, and being to be worth a damn.

But then I realized. Given that I've grown past them in a variety of ways, why should I continue to see myself as beneath them, and continue to view my judgment and manner of being as inferior to theirs? Given that they still make choices that are destructive to themselves and to other people, I think it might be wise to reconsider how much weight I place on what they might think of me.

The people in my immediate circle know, understand, accept, and love me as I am. And shouldn't that be enough, even if the rest of the world was my enemy?

And… I suppose more importantly, given that I am a person who does my best to stand for compassion and mercy, shouldn't my own approval of myself and my own faith in my judgment and perception be enough as well?

…I'm going to work on it. I can't protect the people around me if I'm questioning my own integrity every time someone who doesn't understand me acts like they know more about who I am than I do. I can't try to protect you or other fallen folks if I am constantly questioning the validity of the kindness and mercy I've been trying to learn to embody. I don't know exactly what I'm gonna do yet, but I am surrounded by a wide variety of very amazing people, and I like to think that I'm reasonably intelligent; I'm sure I'll figure out something if I pay careful attention to the things going on around me.

Hey, Sephiroth? Are you resting properly? Are you taking care of yourself? Are you hydrating and nourishing well? I know you're supposedly superhuman or some shit, but you're still a man, still a squishy mammal, and as such, basic needs and comforts are essential. Please treat yourself as though you deserve nice things, won't you? Please treat yourself as though you deserve to feel healthy and good. And maybe then you can think about your childhood and your upbrigning and all the horrific circumstances you suffered under, and realize that none of it was your fault. Maybe you can realize that it happened because the people around you were so traumatized that they made bad choices while interacting with you, and not because you're a "monster" or an "aberration" or an "abomination" (because you are NONE of these things!).

I think I'll end today's letter here. Though I am slowly recovering from the trip and from the other adjustments that have been made to the structure of my immediate circle, I'm still pretty tired.

Remember you're loved. Not for what you look like. Not for the power you wield. Not for your status or your fame. But because you're you. Remember that even if you lost all of those things, there are still people in this world who would do their best to know, understand, accept, and love you as-is. Use that knowledge to muster up the courage you need to make good, wholesome, and loving choices. Use that knowledge to muster up the courage to be gentle, compassionate, and kind with your words and deeds; this is what it means to be strong in the real way. Do no harm, but take no shit, okay?

I'll keep writing to you every day until you come home to the people who care for you. We miss you.

Your friend, Lumine

Dear Sephiroth: (a letter to a fictional character, because why not) #39

I learned a very important phrase today. And it is "pathological projective identification". If mentions of the mechanics of psychological abuse is a trigger for you, you might want to avoid reading the rest of this.

Essentially, pathological projective identification is what happens when an abusive person has some aspect of themselves that they find intolerable to consciously perceive, so they instead pin it on someone who is in a position that is less able to fight back - for example, their child, their partner, their subordinate at work, or even a friend with poor boundary skills.

So practically, what it looks like is, some person who is selfish (but doesn't want to see themselves that way) accuses someone else of being selfish, and usually that other person is in some position where if they don't internalize the message, they'll either be abandoned (literally or psychologically) or further berated. So in the end, for the person being abused in this manner, it's, "accept the label the abusive person is putting on you, OR ELSE."

I've spent a lot of time trying to make sense of what happened to me and my siblings, growing up. In so doing, I've learned much about the mechanics of generational trauma and various forms of abuse, and how these things, when given to a child, end up impacting the resulting adult. But I never knew about this particular mechanic until today. How wonderful it is to still be able to learn things, even after having studied this subject for such a long time!

Here's a video that explains it all a lot better than I can:

I was utterly flabbergasted at how similar "Terry's" lived experiences, as described here, so closely mirrored my own, in some respects. I'm glad that I finally have a label for the result of this sort of thing - a reason why, on a bad day, sometimes I get worried that I've been "the problem" in my family this whole time. Sometimes this worry gets so bad that I think that I am making life worse for the people in my immediate vicinity. Sometimes the worry that I am making life worse for the people around me gets so bad that I think that the good thing to do might be to permanently exit my meat-mech prematurely (don't worry; I have coping skills in place to help me when I get like this, so I'm not at risk or anything - it's all good).

But now I have a label for this thing. It has a name. It is a phenomenon that is well-known enough that there is specific language used to describe it, coined by people who have been studying this stuff for far longer than I have. There is a reason for the Bad Mental Health Days that I sometimes get, in which I relentlessly berate myself in the very same ways that my past adult overlords used to, and why I sometimes still believe all of the things about me that they used to say.

Having language to describe this phenomenon means that I am not broken. It means that I am not alone. And it means that it is a solvable problem that can be worked on until it's no longer an issue, instead of some vaguely-defined flaw in my personality that will be with me forever and ever. It's not, "I am just an anxious, ruminating, weak-willed person by nature." It is, "something happened to me that is known to psychologically injure people, and injuries can be recovered from."

And isn't that liberating!! Wow!!

I'm not sure if it's this way for other people, but for me, having the hows and the whys and the mechanics of a thing laid out makes me better able to understand it, make room for it, and in the end, do something about it. I think this is part of the reason for having labels for things - it's not supposed to be for the purpose of condemning people; it's supposed to help people understand that their lived experiences are part of the human condition, instead of some anomalous thing that makes them fundamentally unlovable or something.

Hey, Sephiroth? Have you spent any time thinking about your own lived experiences? Your childhood? The ways you were treated, and how that impacted the way you view the world and others in it? Have you stopped to look around long enough so that you can start to think about the fact that your circumstances aren't really all that unique? During your time at the Edge of Creation, did you look around at other people's stories so that you can see that there have been other child soldiers, other experimental supersoldiers, other people who have been used, abused, and exploited in the same ways you have? Have you stopped to look around long enough to see that you really, really aren't alone? That you, like all those other people, can have a place in the world? That you can work on your things, find peace, build a version of "normal", and learn to enjoy things?

If you have spent time thinking about these things… tell me, what have you learned? I know that you can't tell me, but I'm gonna ask anyway because you're worth considering and understanding, regardless.

And if you have not spent time thinking about these things, when will you? Though I'm sure you have a lot on your plate right now, I'm also fairly sure that you have sufficient time on your hands to consider the impact of how you were treated as a boy and how it shaped you. I imagine you have sufficient time on your hands to start to believe that the "normal life" you wanted is within reach, and to consider how to shape yourself in service to that dream.

In the meantime, with this new knowledge that I gained today, I'll be over here, doing my best to shape myself into someone who is not vicious with myself. After all, when I get like that, the people who love me get very sad (which is natural and expected), and I don't want to be one more reason for them to be sad - we're already living in late-stage capitalism, plagued with wars and prejudice just about everywhere, on a planet that is dying due to climate change (it got up to almost 50F today in some parts of where I live; it's supposed to be 32F or below this time of year…); they have more than enough reasons to be sad as it is, doncha think? If we want there to be fewer reasons to be sad, if we want the world to change... we have to look at ourselves first. There is a musician in our world who is no longer with us; he said it far better than I ever could:

May any of what I've written and shown you give you some kind of food for thought. Who do you see when you look in the mirror? I hope that the image you see is just as beautiful to you as what I see when I look at your soul.

Please stay safe; don't disappear and give us more reasons to be sad. You're loved, you're needed, you're cared for, and you're worth your own effort. If you haven't been acting like you're worth more than simply what you can do… please start acting like it. As much as I and others who love you might like to zoop over there and do it for you, it's not within our power to do. So you gotta do it instead. Okay?

I'll write to you some more later.

Your friend, Lumine
