1. Pick a name and gender for your character.
2. Decide the age, personality, history, and looks of your character.
3. Remeber to keep your character interesting(no cookie cutter perfections) while also remaining aware of the fact that we don't want unrealistic drama(no 'my whole family was murdered when I was younger and I'm emotionally scarred for life').
