Use Theme.A good way to do this is to position the character around the theme.<br />
<br />
By giving the character a certain belief or point of view relative to the theme, you determine more specifically Who They Are.<br />
<br />
This helps decide so many things: their backstory, their description, how they'll change, how they interact with other characters, their role...and so on.<br />
<br />
It gives you a solid foundation for building a character, a solid role for the character to play and a solid reason for the character being in the story.<br />

<br>
<br>For example:
<br>
<br>In the Ordinary World, there is no hope.
<br>
<br>In the First Threshold, hope is kindled.
<br>
<br>By the time of the Boon, characters have rediscovered hope.

How deep do you go?<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
<br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
A good answer lies in AVATAR<br />
<br />
Each world is a function of a side of the argument, and the worlds are developed to represent those arguments.<br />
<br />
The worlds are functions of the change you're trying to deliver.<br />
<br />
For example, think of the New World as designed specifically to turn the character journeying through it to the other side.<br />
<br />
That takes the randomness out; it gives you something tangible to base the world on.<br />

<br>
<br>If you compare the execution of Superman (1978) and Michael Corleone (Godfather, 1972), the two may be defined as different hero types but both journeys are remarkably similar when it comes to executing the underlying change/arc/theme etc.

<br>
<br>The characters, their change, their positions and archetypes, the world etc will all be reflections of the message.
