Good stuff.
The one thing I can think to say is that often character, situation, setting, color, and premise all sort of emerge at the same time. Like, when you sit down to play a game of Polaris, you're not like "I have this problematic character, what's the situation" or "I have this premise, what's the character." You just play.
This is the same with InSpectres, I think.

P.S. Who is the protagonist of The Far Side of the World: Aubrey or Maturin? Look at it from Maturin's perspective, especially the last scene.
