Arjuna

I feel the character of Arjuna is very interesting because
of the weapons he gets are symbolic to the development of his personality. I
like how Arjuna is basically on an adventure while getting these weapons.
Urvashi falls in love with him, he learns new dances, and he even deals with a
curse cast on him—all things that happen throughout his journey. I think this
concept of adventure and journey is something I could use in my own story to
build my characters. I would also like to use weapons to represent a piece of
Arjuna’s personality as he continues his trip.
Urvashi is character I would like to keep in my story
because she reminds me of an evil twin sister in fairy-tales I used to love
watching and reading. She is considered one of the prettiest, but she has a bad
influence on people. I would like to use her character to represent human
emotions in Arjuna such as feeling attraction towards something that may not be
the best for them because lets face it, we’ve all had our moments where we give
people benefit of the doubt.
Benefit of the doubt is the lesson I want to include in my
own story through Arjuna’s character. I think the weapons will tie in really
well with how this lesson is learned. I think this will be a fun story to
portray because it will have a little bit of everything—bravery, love,
mistakes, and action. I’m excited to put this story to work! I want my story to
be a little different when it comes to his journey. Arjuna’s character in my story
will have to go through many obstacles to gain a number of weapons that he will
pass down to his future kids. I would like to use foreshadow in my story, as
well.
