What character gave you trouble in your story?

There's a few.

Since I'm adapting an older story, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, into a futuristic time travel story, I've had to figure out how to transfer the original characters into my story so that they fit.

Each of Dorothy's traveling companions in the story needed some futuristic parallel. The scarecrow who wanted a brain (who became an AI), and the Tin Woodman who wanted a heart (who becomes a cyborg) were pretty easy.

The Cowardly Lion was more difficult. I eventually settled on a genetically modified person, who was upset that he now inspired fear in others, which kind of flips the script.

I've also not yet figured out how to adapt each of the random people/groups that they meet along the way, such as the Field Mice.

I've got a few pieces figured out, but it's still very much a work in progress.

How physically fit is your MC?

She's very fit. She eats healthy and runs, with Toto, most days.
