== Description ==
The Character property is initially nil. But is set when the Character is spawned.

== Example ==

This code demonstrates the use of the Character property. First, we print the character while it hasn't loaded yet, which should print <samp>nil</samp>. Then, we print it after making sure it has loaded, which should print its name.

{{code|=
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
	print(player.Character)
	player.CharacterAdded:wait()
	print(player.Character)
end)
}}

To get a player from a character, you can use a 'for' loop, but it is preferable to use the [[GetPlayerFromCharacter (Method)|:GetPlayerFromCharacter() method]].
