Answer:

For example, Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games is motivated to volunteer for her sister, because she wants to protect her (external) and because she could not live with herself if she did not (internal). Make Your Characters Have More Than One: Make sure your characters have a few motivations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ways that you can make your character more realistic too it

Give them flaws. ...

Don't make things black and white for them. ...

Give them unique appearances. ...

Let them talk like actual people. ...

Give them traits from real people. ...

Alliteration — throw that trash away. ...

It always works with my schedule.
