It has it's faults, but on the whole I quite like the epic nature of the story and the level of detail and thought that has gone into it. Which is quite rare for me as I dislike modules in general.

I mean, usually it's an organic process for me. I start tinkering with stats and specialisations and try and envisage the character and how it thinks and reacts to various situations.

All up, there isn't one single thing that goes into making a character. For me, it's a process and one that doesn't stop once I start playing the character.
