YOU NEED TO START MAKING IT FOR YOUR CHARACTERS
It's really not all that difficult, either. Just put in some details about how they speak, how they walk, how they look. Basically the things that you cannot deduce by looking at their sprite and at their 'say' text alone. I hate it when there is an interesting and engaging character in-game and they have no goddamn flavor text. This needs to be rectified immediately.
THINGS TO INCLUDE
Accents Talking speed Height (saying someone is 5'7" might be alright, since you can guesstimate height in real life) Prosthetic limbs Glasses Eye color Hair color Hair style Facial features Scars Tatoos Other unique and defining details
Also, I cannot stress this enough:
DO NOT USE FLAVOR TEXT FOR THE CHARACTER'S BACKSTORY

You can also set your character's records too!
If you have any back story that you want to share... using character records to subtly push in things that would have happened to them before is a good way of doing it. Just make sure its set out like someone else is writing about your character to inform the medical/security/HoP.

You could also use it to show your character's easily observable mannerisms
