My characters are often based on characters I've made from other video games and D&D. I also take some inspiration from other anime and video game characters. I also add a little bit of myself or my friends into the mix. All this acts as a sort of base from which to start. Then I allow the character to sort of develop on her own as I go along. Sometimes she stays the same and sometimes she becomes something completely different. I guess you could say, that's my character alchemy.
