> Pick a song, any song. A song you like. My suggestions? 1 2 3
> Take what you like about that song. (Lyrics, names, themes. E: I imagine lots of pastel colors in number 1.)
> Once you've gathered all that you like, write them down in notepad \ somewhere.
> Begin imagining this song as a person, a character. Why would they feel that way? What makes them feel that way? What would they look like? What's their favorite color. -- Already for number one I have pastel orange, red, and cream colors. Their favorite color is blue, they've very spindly and gaunt in frame. Maybe they're a large cat, maybe they're a deer or a horse.
> Wrap all that up and tidy it into something you like. You have a basic appearance.
> Take the song again, and listen to it. Collect 3 pros and 3 cons of the personality you can feel in the song. Again for number one: Apologetic, Sincere, Workoholic, Oblivious, Careless, Cold - Once you've done that, write up a personality. (E: NAME is a sincere person that overworks themselves to the brink of accidentally ignoring those they care about. They are often oblivious to more serious ordeals, but have a good heart and are trying to do the right thing. They could be seen as careless and cold, but they are trying to be better for themselves and those they love.)
You have your appearance and personality. NAME is a pastel lynx with mixed markings along their legs in the form of softened stripes and spots in the colors of faded orange and teal. Their main base color is white, their eyes are blue, and they have a soft voice.
> Think of names, or just words, that fit the personality and appearance. For this I'll be picking Demure.
There, character made!
