I whole-heartedly agree!! This is the BEST advice so far IMHO.

Interesting point. In my game I make up the NPC's and their
background since I am the only one who knows the true dirt
behind many of my npcs.
But I am curious- is Chris' suggestion a commonplace occurrence?
Do you other GM's allow the players to create the background and
descriptions for your/their NPC's?
