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

I try and come up with something mechanically interesting and then work my character and backstory around that.

Yeah this is the way I do it except I do a third step which is go back and see if any of the feats ive chosen because of mechanics could be switched to better fit thematically
