    The term "character" derives from the Greek word meaning "engraving instrument" and originally referred to distinctive marks on coins. It was later applied to distinctive personality traits, with an individual's character comprising the sum of their characteristics. The American Psychiatric Association defines character as relatively fixed patterns of behavior and the personality attributes that make up an individual. Character formation is the process by which a person develops stable patterns of functioning, thinking, and feeling through the interaction of their innate predispositions and environmental influences, also known as character building.
