What goes into creating characters? Do you start with lore first or characterization?

That's a great question! Kaas, Keito, Leran, Sylvanna, and Kaori were my friends' characters in the D&D campaign that this game was loosely based on. Whenever I'm stumped, I just text the original player. You can actually see them in the credits, LOL.
For game originals, I always start with characterization. Characters like Aria, for example, are also heavily vibe-written. The lore of each character comes second to their quirks, personality, and vibe, you know?
Nonetheless, this game is a tribute to my friends, and each character deserves that level of care.
Thanks as always for asking, Owlstar!
