So I'm thinking a representative of the Church (trying to be the redeeming light pushing back the dark or the avenging agent set to cleanse evil from the dark places of the city), a shaman that is has power granted by nature spirits, or a (mostly?) self-taught streetwise Sorcerer are the ideas I like best.

Fine by me, here's a slightly refined version of my character Phillip Hess.
High Concept: Retired Goalie for the Detroit Red Wings
Trouble: Plastic Knee
Backstory: His father was an aspiring hockey player and his mother was a Canadian immigrant and artist who he met during his career. When he decided to retire they moved back to his hometown of Detroit where she took up a position at the museum and he stayed at home with their newborn son. As he grew older the couple clashed over several issues until they finally divorced and she moved back to Canada. He spent winters living with his father in Detroit and summers in Canada with his mother from that point on. Unlike his father he demonstrated real skill in hockey and he eventually managed to secure himself a position on the Red Wings.
Aspect: Dual Citizenship
My First Adventure: When representatives of the White Court tried to get him to throw a championship game in order to increase their pool of possible victims he refused. Unfortunately this resulted in a violent confrontation that left him with a career ending injury. He also managed to injure one of his attackers further antagonizing the White Court in the process.
Aspect: Sworn Enemy of House Skavis

Hmm, after thinking for a moment I was thinking of perhaps either:
An urban shaman who draws their power from communing with the spirit of Detroit proper.
A made man who picks up as many advantages as he can get through creating and imbibing alchemical concoctions.
Or a lawyer looking to carve out a dominion on behalf of the Spring Court [Name pending].
I'm suddenly seeing you four basically getting together for drinks Friday nights at one of the bars downtown and then going out and finding monsters to kick the shit out of

Think I'll change the character I was starting to craft in my head around slightly.

We could probably manage it to based on some of the ideas being kicked around.

Berru Secune in Rise of the Jedi
High Concept: Wizard with Something to Prove
Trouble: Bites off more than she can chew
Backstory: Born in Montreal to two Wizards of the White Council, Alice was introduced to magic at a young age. She was a smart student of both the arcane and mundane, though she had a stubborn streak in her. She graduated from McGill University with a BA in medieval history, and aggressively pursued her magical studies at the same time.
Apect: Always at the top of my class
First Adventure: Alice receives word that both of her parents have been killed in a Red Court ambush. Furious with grief at their deaths, she vows to hunt down those responsible. Despite her lack of experience, the White Council is desperately short of manpower and recruits her to fight the Red Court, and she is raised to the status of full Wizard. She partakes in a coordinate strike on a Red Court stronghold in New York, killing dozens of vampires, including those supposedly responsible for her parents' deaths. It can't make things better, but it's a start.
Aspect: Vengeance is Mine
Second Adventure: In the immediate aftermath of the war with the Red Court, Alice moves to Detroit, to take a position as curator of the medieval european collection at the DIA. After a friend is murdered under suspicious circumstances, Alice suspects a supernatural connection, and investigates. Confirming her suspicion that the fomor were behind the killing, she hunts them until she finds one of their lairs, and confronts the group. In the ensuing fight, the building 'accidentally' burns to the ground.
Aspect: Sometimes I'm a little Hot-headed
I think my character would have some ties to the museum, maybe that is how he and Alice know one another? Heck maybe he could guest star in her second adventure.

I think maybe the Scholar aspect could be a little hotter. Maybe something like "Always At The Top of My Class" or something a little more spicy perhaps?
Oh, whoever was thinking of making a character with ties to the church would tie in nicely with my character. As a irish quebecer, she would probably be Catholic, so there would be opportunities for ties.
I'm stuck on aspect names and nailing down my characters backstory/personality.
Right now I'm thinking he used to run with a bad crowd, so the backstory is related to that and the aspect would be "Ran with the wrong crowd."
No idea for a good high concept or trouble (only idea I've got for trouble is something relating to a patient man with a bad temper once it's tested. "You wouldn't like me when I'm angry" as an idea for what I'd try to aim for.)
Took a little down time to start boiling down to a character. I'll work a bit on my second adventure shortly, anyone wants to claim the Guest Star spot?
Marco Conti
High Concept:Full-Time Made Man, Part-Time Alchemist
Trouble:Never good enough, always do more.
Backstory: A native of Detroit, the Combination was in his blood from the first moment he drew breath. His father Gennaro "Engine Joe" Conti, was a small-time leadfoot for the Detroit Combination. Marco could remember the uncles that came by for birthdays, the long stretches where Papa was gone leaving him alone with Mama, the police always sniffing around about every so often. It was natural as breathing to him, besides what else was a boy supposed when his prospects were the factories or slaving away at some other sweat-drenched job? Marco wasn't no mamaluke. Aspect:Battered navy blue Matchbox cruiser
My First Adventure:"Big Top" Esposito has been having a little trouble with his runners. They've been disappearing in the middle of their rounds, reappearing dead later in the street, and none of the profits from various operations have not been making their way back to line Esposito's pockets. After Marco utilizes his particular skills he discovers that that there's a new street gang operating in the area, the Crimson Brethren. They're been carving their own slice of territory out of Esposito's and looking to make a name for themselves. According to the locals, the members which make up the Brethren can be identified by their dark red berets and odd features that only appear when there's an odd trick of the light Aspect:An ear in every pot.
destroyah87 my fallback when stumped for inspiration is to ride in coat tails
maybe play someone's relative? Friend? Spouse?
Hmm, that's an idea. I'll think on this today and should have something by tonight.
In other news, I had a flash of inspiration and think I have an idea for the character's backstory that makes it easier for me to get the other aspects down.
EDIT: To clarify, the flash of inspiration is having the character be ex-army. So right now, I'm picturing an Irish Catholic ex-army priest. Kinda up in the air if he's still a priest or not. I've been operating under the idea that he still is, but it could be interesting if he's no longer officially a priest. (ie, not employed as a member of a church.)
My original idea was for a warden who was in the army reserve. I scrapped it in favor of something a bit more mortal. I really like the idea of an army priest though, very cool destoryah.

I'm bummed I missed recruiting for this but I look forward to reading the thread as the campaign progresses, the Dresden Files are boss and y'all are coming up with some very cool characters.
So this is more or less the final draft for my character. Changed one aspect and added one for the last adventure.

Confronted with monstrous servitors of the Fomor he allies himself with a wizard named Alice. Together they manage to track the murderers to their lair and reduce it to a pile of charred rock.

Alright. Here we go. I present to you all what I have so far.
James Malone.
High Concept: Soldier of the Lord
The old saying goes, "There's no aethists in foxholes," and before serving in the army James Malone would have called it just that: an old saying. Only after he'd seen combat did James learn his Irish Catholic upbringing had stuck harder than he'd have ever thought. Not long after his first taste of combat, James was taken in and mentored by his unit's chaplain. Once out of the army, he came back home to Detroit and found his city under siege from within and without. Given his skills and history, he felt compelled to work to save Detroit and the souls of the city's people.
Trouble: Thou Shalt Not Kill
Backstory: Ran with a bad crowd.
Growing up in a bad neighborhood, it's small wonder young James fell in with the wrong crowd. Things came to a head when the then nearly 18 year old Malone boy was caught in a burglary attempt. He was given a choice: be tried as an adult and face hard time or enlist in the army and be tried as a minor.
My first Adventure: There's some fight left in this dog.
Having recently been released from the army, James was adjusting back to civilian life, trying to find where in Detroit he belonged. He felt lost and alone. It's only when he stumbled across something abducting children that he was snapped out of his funk. Calling upon skills learned as a juvenile delinquent and honed in the army, James Malone took out a lone ghoul that was taking kids into the Detroit sewers and eating them down in the dank and the dark. Down there in the deep, James found his faith had power. Now knowing that there was this huge unknown world of monsters and magic, James took a vow to protect the innocent from what lurked in the shadows.

Calling upon skills learned as a juvenile delinquent and honed in the army, James Malone took out a lone ghoul that was taking kids into the Detroit sewers and eating them down in the dank and the dark. Down there in the deep, James found his faith had power. Now knowing that there was this huge unknown world of monsters and magic, James took a vow to protect the innocent from what lurked in the shadows.
