I have tendencies to put a bit of myself into nearly all of my characters.

Sebastian has most of my appearance (at least at the time), talents, fears, and part of my personality (the tendencies to overanalyze situations and people, and also the duality of clear logic conflicting with raw, intense emotion. Stefan has my social awkwardness, singing ability (though I can't write lyrics well), and poor luck with romantic relationships.  Skylar has my accepting nature and strong dislike of being stereotyped.

From my character library: Kathryn has my insecurity hiding behind an arrogant facade (though I'm not as bad as she is, as she's partially based on Cary). Suzanne has my constant overshadowed status, despite having reasonable talent in multiple fields. Stewart has my ability to overhear conversations well. Griff has my general quirkiness and slight lack of conventional masculinity, as well as love of yoga.

I guess that's it for my characters, though, as the others have different origins.
