43:39 - 55:12   E-mails and parting comments

Characters

Races
Humans (good all-rounders)
Elves (fast, agile but quite fragile and very attuned to the winds of magic)
Dwarves (tough, hardy but slower and less agile)
Halflings (enthusiastic and likeable but not suited for melee combat)

Careers are assigned buy either rolling for careers or choosing one with your GMs permission

Then you can flesh out your characters personality

Some things that may help are

Create you characters well in advance (it gives you more time to create a background)
Don't be afraid to have only a basic concept of the character and flesh out there background later
Add flaws they can make encounters more interesting
Talk to other players you may be able to brainstorm ideas or create a shared background

Please get in touch with your character stories or general feedback
