Go to [url=http://tvtropes.org/]this site[/url].

Click on the 'Random Trope' Button.

Keep randomizing until you get a trope that describes a single character--not a group, situation, abstract concept, or otherwise. Like [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NonHumanSidekick]Non-Human Sidekick[/url] or [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheManBehindTheMan]The Man Behind the Man[/url] or [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HuskyRusskie]Husky Russkie[/url], rather than the [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/XanatosGambit]Xanatos Gambit[/url] or [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FiveManBand]Five-Man Band[/url] (you can use ROLES in the five man band tho) or [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/WhatIsThisFeeling]What Is This Feeling?[/url].

Build a character around that trope, keeping them true to its definition while making them dynamic and believable.

And that's pretty much as far as I got. I figured if this comes to fruition at all, it'd just be chill thing where the characters can live and breath and interact with each other, not a lot of action or anything. Characters would be flexible as far as species and origin, but I haven't thought about it a lot yet. Interested? Nah?
