Have you ever had a character show up earlier than you intended in something you were writing? It's like they have a mind of their own, and they've decided that now is as good a time as any to introduce themselves. I had that happen with not one, but two characters in Mars while I was writing chapter two. Both of them will be major characters later on, but they decided they needed to make an appearance before then.
Also, I have a confession. I have several characters that I originally intended to be likable that, in development, I have started to hate and several who were supposed to be unimportant that have wormed their way in and made themselves more important. Ah, creative process.
