Mine's kinda a Randomized Randomocity thing: Do your characters have (in your mind, obv.) birthdays? Moms and dads? Sibs and cousins and exes?

I like your Randomized Randomocity thing. I've never been asked that question, nor have I seen another author asked it. So kudos to you for originality! Thanks for the question, Richard!
My characters all have birthdays, moms and dads, sibs and cousins and exes. They just don't make it into the story unless they're pivotal people in the characters lives. I imagine lots of authors are the same way, we know more than the reader could ever know (or would probably want to. Lol)
