Answer 8

By the character's thoughts and actions.

Let's say your character, Sherry, is a rude person. Here are some examples to make that point:

Sherry grabbed the cup from him. "Go away."

---

Sherry laughed at her. "You're such a little twit, Marcy."

---

"Sherry wouldn't come," Gregg said. "She said to drop dead."


None of those directly say "Sherry is a rude person", but they all imply it.

Answer 10

It can be done by directly stating the character's likes and dislikes. For instance, in Harry Potter, the author has directly stated that the Dursley
family stays away from anything that is not normal.
