I have a new character. Originally, I made them as a joke (which they kinda still are) but I'd like to make them into an official character.

I'd like some things that I could add in, or expand on please! Also tell me what you liked about Janice.

Okay, challenge accepted. Overall, Janice is a great character. Just the name made me laugh. Idk, but Janice the Uber Driver is just a funny name…

Question: Why does her clothing hide her appearance? I'm intrigued!
I can see this is set in a future world, where she's like a futuristic uber driver which is really clever and a good idea, but I am left wondering about her background and history, I KNOW NOTHING! AHHHHH! It'd be nice to incorporate some sort of a past/backstory for our girl Janice the Uber Driver here. Where she's from, how she was made, does she associate anyone as being her family?

Also, just a question, but Janice has no friends…in a job like this where she meets new people all the time (and she seems very social) shouldn't she at least have some other uber driver friends or something???

Besides that, her character made me smile and keep up the good work! :)

I picture her being the kind of girl thats like super talkative and her voice is like super loud. She thinks shes super funny-and sometimes she is- but other times its just her laughing at her own jokes. When she laughs really heard she might even snort.
For part of her backstory I feel like she could be super insecure her whole life and she uses her extrovertedness and jokes to cover up how she feels. Maybe her insecurity comes from a dying dream of being something more than an Uber diver or maybe she dreams of being normal and the only way for her to feel normal is by making others laugh.
Idk maybe this isn't what you were going for but hopefully it sparked some ideas :)
