This may sound completely stupid but forgive me I'm a noob to all this. (IMG:

I've heard that sci-fi and fantasy authors 'interview' their characters by imagining them sitting across from them in a room and asking questions. The answers are supposed to let you get to the know the characters more.
Could this be useful if you intended to give a servitor/tulpa/whatever a personality? I was thinking about creating a 'friend' servitor just to start out with, and I was wondering if this could help.
And if it could, what would be some good questions to ask?
