When you’re making a character, do you prefer to start with the mechanics, backstory, or aesthetics first?

I tend to start with a rough concept/flavour and then look for mechanics to facilitate that. For example; for my current character I mainly wanted to build something like a pro wrestler. Looked a bit at the rules and found that Catfolk + Gymnast Swashbuckler + Wrestler dedication will do exactly what I want the character to be. Throw in some Kurgess worship and I basically had exactly the character I imagined.
