Kathryn_aka_Kat was my first ISRP char.
I make my characters, sometimes with intents and purposes. there is something I want them to do. I give them a personalilty to match. Sometimes I give them a personality first. Lince'sa, started out with, MAAAAAYBE too much personality. Saera can probably atest. she's say everything on her mind and it would usually wind her and her friends in trouble. if there weren't any friends, it would wind her and whoever she was around in trouble.
Sometimes I look at, or think of a picture and think "That's it! That's my next character!" Name and back ground given after. Then off to the site to see where she/he fits in. Sometimes they don't fit in anywhere and they have to be completely reworked. Either way, personality is key.
Also, sometimes I like to make characters with quirks: something not quite right about them. Drunks, physical disablitity, depression (for those of you who remember Endolyn One-leg, who was both disabled AND depressed.)
Remember most though. if you don't have fun playing them, no one else will either. They may at first but soon they will loose interest. So make a FUN character, and see where he/she fits.
