Just gonna add in here ('cause I can), one-shots (solo stories, as Con describes 'em) really are a nice way to build up a character. I did that on BFF, this thing here, to give some exposition on a character of mine. You can do it for historical events of their life or even present events you're unwilling to RP, etc. They're fun, provided that you stay committed (I didn't).

My recommendation is to do one-shots of extremely important, engaging actions that your character is undertaking and things like that. It helps you settle into character too!
