==I. Character Concept== The character concept could very well be either the easiest or hardest step depending upon the player. Essentially the mental picture of the character, the idea, the hook, anything and everything that goes into the characters makeup. Some essential questions are best answered before character construction even begins. '''What race is your character?''' Elf? Dwarf? Human? Gen? something else entirely? Ask your GM if there is anything new and exciting, or maybe you might make up something yourself? Keep in mind the effect that this will have on your character beyond the stats, each race has a culture, a bearing, and basic relationship standards with other races. '''What is your characters nature?''' Is your character a warrior through and through? are they a bookworm? powermad? psycotic? the consumate professional? a wanderer? anti-social? what makes your character tick? what is that basic personality trait that, when all else is stripped away, is central to your being? '''What is your characters archetype?''' What is your characters base archetype? are you a warrior? a rogue? a mage? or a archon? a spiderguard? what is your background, what did you grow up as and what was the nature of the training you have recieved thus far. '''What is your driving goal?''' What do you want to accomplish? build an empire? create a better world? kill every dwarf you see? bed every hottie you come accross? nothing at all? Is your characters life leading to something? and if so what is it? What is methodology? How does your character tackle problems? do they kick the door in? pick the lock? are they careful? considerate? do they set traps? or do they charge the pack and hope for the best? Does your character have a way of doing things? And if so what is it? '''What are your Peculiarities?''' Is there something that is just plain odd about your character? something that sets them apart from others? do you have grey eyes? a huge unibrow? do you have tatoos all over your body? do you have an odd skin pigment? Is there anything about you that people would remember? And if so what? When your done your character concept you should be able to write at least a couple of paragraphs about your character, about who and what they are. Once you are finished the concept the rest of the process is simply building to that type of character.
