I don't know why I did that, but it was a learning experience. You guys should try that sometimes. Make a character, it's archetype and story, and only later give it the backstory to back it up and/or justify it?

Already did it. Twice.

No, no. Literally write the character in reverse. No backstory. Start with an in media res, then write how he got there with no start point. And no clue on your own.

It's basically you tracing your steps in a puddle. It's fucking batshit insane.
