Which do you figure out first, character looks or personalities?
I often start with the situation or a line of dialogue that comes to me, so a character's personality grows out of that. I don't often settle on (or even describe) looks in detail, sometimes just mentioning attributes in a different character's POV.
I never have a character in POV "look in the mirror" so e.g. in disOrder, I know what Nolene looks like, but I don't really know what Calnor/Joreth looks like.
