Prompt 9 - A Protagonist or Very Important NPC

Create a person that will be a Protagonist in writing for your Region, or a Very Important NPC if you're thinking along game lines. This is the first of a series of prompts that will be related to this character, so just focus on getting the basics down. Over the coming weeks, there will be additional prompts that will give you the opportunity to provide some additional "flavor" to the character you create.

Every story has at least one main character. Every RPG setting has at least one important, persistent Non-Player Character (NPC). So why should your region in Synergasia be any different? The last prompt asked you to create an important historical person; this time we want a current, living character within your setting.

To tell you where this is going, though... There will be a series of additional prompts starting next week that will target very detailed quirks, habits, mannerisms, beliefs, possessions, etc. that will help bring this character to life. By the time you're ready to really start writing, you will hopefully have a very good idea about who this character really is.

Focus on a single person. Feel free to use as many of the standard template prompts as posible. The prompts coming in the future will either address completely different topics or will give you the chance to enhance or refine what you do with the "basic" template.

If you already have your "main character", you may choose to just skip this prompt, or you can create a secondary character - a supporting character, or perhaps a villain. If you're really ambitious, create a couple characters; you'll be able to apply future prompts to any or all of them.

Suggested Template

You want to use the Character template. WIthin this template, the Generic, Naming, Mental, and Physical tabs are all fair game. If you're stuck on any of the built-in prompt areas, don't fret. It is quite possible that some of the future prompts will give you a chance to revisit a few of them..

The Rules

The only rule in Synergasia is that your worldbuilding is restricted to your area unless you are actively collaborating with a neighbor. If you are collaborating, let us know and we'll make an entry in the Canon articles to notate it.
Other than that, your region is your world. Go for it!
There are no prizes... no judging. An article with 300 words is probably the low end of "enough to be useful", and more than 1500-2000 becomes a "wall of text" that will frighten people off. But there are no hard restrictions on minimum or maximum word count.
We will review your article and will, from time to time, extract certain facts to be included in your region's "Canon" article. These articles will be guides for you in the future, and for anyone you wish to collaborate with. ("Canon" will include things like capital cities... names of rivers, settlements, deities... major past or present events... wars... conquests... You get the idea.)
