Ah, the sort of "You're unique, just like everyone else" bit? Characterization has always been an important concept for me. Her values and experiences are where she derives her motivation to consciously or subconsciously make every single decision she makes, and I try to stay painfully in character for them (even if it means brushing off a walk-up whom I have OOCly agreed to rp with, solely because my character doesn't want to)
It can be easy to be caught up in big plot lines and stories, but I've always loved the depth that comes with every day life on the side. I think people are defined by these kinds of things, so they're pretty intrinsic to my roleplay.
But moving back on topic, I would certainly hope my character is 'human' and otherwise believable. The choices she makes, even the trivial ones, I check against her prioritized values and defensive mechanisms before coming up with the right response. It seems like a longer process than I'm making it out to be.
