Take it to the simplest extent to start with. Why does that character get out of bed in the morning?
I have a character that's a chronically depressed Soviet-ish supersoldier. I couldn't get a handle on her until I answered that question. 'Because she owes her existence to others' sacrifice and if she didn't get up, she might as well just kill herself now.'
