What if you're writing a story but feel you require you fully flesh out like 15 characters exhaustively first, fail to convince yourself otherwise, get tired, lose sight of the actual story, and give up for a while because of this toxic spiral?

Write a paragraph about each of their deaths. Whether it happens in the story or much later. Think about how they got to that point, and whether they are satisfied with the timing and the lives they led. They don't have to be good, or publishable, or usable. You only have to write.
