how the characters and concept develop?

jms wasn't adverse to changing things in the story. In fact, he was well known and explained early on in the show's production that he had designed alternate paths for characters as "trap doors" should he need to take characters out of the story, and that with the exception of two or three characters, he was prepared to lose any of the characters if necessary. It is not uncharacteristic of jms to be willing to change things about characters. His skills as a writer enabled him to do so while also keeping the ultimate story "essentially" the same.

He used to say that B5 was kind of like a platoon fighting in World War II: Individual members of the platoon might come and go, be introudced and die, but that wasn't going to change the outcome of the war.
