My original list for this is getting long and cluttered since I just tack on little things as they occur to me, so here's a more concise version.
My characters, for the most part:
-are driven, generally in a morally complex way, and resilient as hell.
-are loners, usually by way of being fundamentally different from everyone else around them.
-desperately need other people in their life to remind them how to human.
-have obsessions, typically in the form of goals that never get met because canon gets in the way (and in many cases... see directly above).
-usually don't talk in any depth about themselves, but probably keep a long mental list of everything they know about you.
-take a long time to really trust anyone, but once they figure out who their friends are, they will do everything they can to keep them safe and happy.
-are most often in a position of leadership; if they aren't, they're pulling the strings in the background.
