So I have four essays to work on over the next two weeks which will total about 25 pages. Yikes. Plus I'm getting ready for a diet which starts in three weeks...but thankfully my quarter is almost over! So yes characters!

I'm eager to get back into roleplaying. Since things have been so inactive around here, I've turned to my own personal novels and short stories. 

But yes...our main characters.

I'm thinking a general age range would be mid to late 20s.

I also assume we'll have to pick a city/town they both reside in. For the most part, we'll probably want to hammer out the skeletal aspects and then work from there to ensure we're not making duplicate characters or ones who would resist working with one another. I first presented the idea, under the impression they were strangers but if we wanted them to be coworkers or friends, that would also work for me. It may make adjusting to a new world easier?

I haven't give ambition or profession much thought but I am looking to play a woman who is pretty upbeat with healthy ambition but not too much that it blinds her. Maybe she's somewhat motherly or protective...or the flip side, maybe she wants to put so much faith in others that she doesn't feel the need to doubt/question/dote over them. 

What thoughts have you give to your main character?
