# Character Development: Athletes, Coaches, and Beyond

In Draftables, every character, from athletes to coaches, is unique. Each character has their own attributes, abilities, and potential growth paths. Athletes are more than just statistics; they are digital entities with personalities, career aspirations, and the potential for development both on-and-off the field. Coaches and staff members also play crucial roles, offering strategic advantages and contributing to the overall success of the franchise. \
\
Players must manage these characters wisely, fostering growth, planning career paths, and making tough decisions about retirements and signings.
