The process is the same as making a story for a regular OC.

First get a general idea of what you want to get out of the story. Is there a certain plot point that made you want to choose Pre-Gen Kiri? You have the overall events during that time, and this first step will narrow that overview down to a starting point. Or if it's something that would take place later in the fanfic, then you would have that as a goal to lead up to.

Once you have that starting point, the next step would be making some characters. You may have a few thought up while deciding on the starting point. The rest of us can do the same, and when we see each others' characters, it may spark more ideas for the story that we wouldn't have thought of on our own.

I saw you mention the caste system in Kiri. I may end up trying a lower caste character for this story, though I'll have to think on it a bit more.
