We loved the topic so much, we had to come back to it:  How do you make a good character background?
We love colorful character histories, but sometimes they get so involved that they interfere with the actual game.  One character can't pursue the plotline, because they're too preoccupied with rescuing their sister.  Another refuses to be hooked because the macguffin isn't something he'd go after.  And a third is too busy angsting and "being a lone wolf" to do much of anything with anyone!  How do you create an interesting background that supports the GM's plot, instead of hobbling it?
