Now that you have your OC, you have to think. Why the heck does he/she kill people?! What's the motive? It can't just be, "I'M JUST GONNA GO AND KILL SOME PEOPLE CUZ IT'S FUN!", or, "OH, LOOK, I JUST SNAPPED FOR SOME REASON SO I'M GONNA KILL PEOPLE CUZ I'M CRAZIER THAN SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS GOING TO THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE!" No. Just, no.

Your OC needs a good motive, because without a motive, why kill people? Defeats the purpose of being a creepypasta. Here's some ideas:

• A mental disorder (just don't make it "insanity" for no good reason).
• Psychological torture (I hear there is this type of torture where the victim is locked in a room that is completely white, and only be fed white rice on a paper plate. For days. The person will start to hallucinate, because they see nothing but white. They go crazy. Look it up. It's called "White Torture".
• If they don't kill, they die.
• The victim did something the OC hates.

There are so many good motives out there. Why not start thinking outside the box and using one?
