I found this link and wanted to share with you guys:

http://www.burningvoid.com/write/2005/365charques.pdf

Basically, the above is a list of 365 questions about your character to help you flesh him/her out. The list is set up so that you can do one a day, but I've found it very helpful to use the questions as jumping off points at the beginning of a writing session and see what comes out of it.

I hope this proves helpful for you guys.

Its just what I need to figure out Monessa. By the way, I like how the questions refer to the character as 'her' and then swtiches to 'him'.

Thanks Dusky!
