Customizing Your Character

[acetiff12]

In the games that let you customize the player character's appearance, how do you usually go about it? Do you choose their clothes and hairstyle at random? Do you try to make them look like yourself in real life? Do you not bother and just stick with a default appearance?

Same for when it comes to naming your character. Do you pick one at random? Do you use your real name? Do you use a default name?
