Here are some questions to think about when creating a new character. This is not an exhaustive list or character sheet, merely something to get you thinking. It’s primarily focused on their past with a little bit of current situation mixed in. I hope you find it helpful!
Name:

Where they currently live:
What is the greater area around their home: (city, country etc.)
What they do for a living: (year in school also counts)
Previous homes: (or else why have they never moved)
Why did they move: (or where would they like to move)
How are they feeling at this time:

Siblings: (or how being an only child has affected them)
Family relationship:
How was their relationship to their family before:
How old were their parents when they were born:
What was some advice they learned from their parents: (Relationships, work, life etc.)
What was their education:
What kind of college: (or why didn’t they go to one)
What were two defining moments in their life:

I hope there was at least one question on here you haven’t thought of before and that it helped you in some way. Good luck!
