Characterize is the perfect tool for writers, role-players, storytellers, and anyone who needs to come up with original characters on the fly.

Pulling from an extensive database of names and vital statistics, Characterize has the potential to generate over 3.5 million unique names, and over 8 quadrillion possible characters. That's more than enough for even the most ambitious of projects, and plenty to allow you room to cycle through options and pick the perfect one for you.

You can set specific parameters, if you know your character needs to be named "Johnson" or have green eyes for instance, or you can leave everything up to chance and generate a whole character from nothing. You can even choose to base the results on real-world statistics, or just randomize everything and see what happens.

And once you've found the perfect character, share it effortlessly through Facebook, Twitter, Email and SMS, or copy it into the document of your choice with a single touch!

Whether you're finally naming that long-discussed protagonist, populating a gaming world or even challenging yourself to write a story without knowing who the players will be beforehand, Characterize makes it easy to create realistic, fully realized characters at the touch of a button.
