Character is not faked, it is earned.
By definition if you faked it, you would have it, because you would embody it, and you cannot embody that which you do not have.
This is why character literally cannot be faked.

Fakery lies in the tactical micro, not the strategic whole.
You are still what you are, but you are trying to appear as if you are something else.
This is called wearing a mask.
You can fake specific actions, opinions etc - but this comes at great personal cost to you

That personal cost is the suppression of your true nature
This is draining & unenjoyable for you
You're not in touch with your gifts, because everything must be planned, considered, restrained - u have no freedom "to be"
This is the cost of trying to get what you don't deserve

This is why cons of all kinds (be they online hustlers, or degenerate thots posing as good women) like to operate on quick time scales.
Because the ruse cannot be kept up forever.
Cracks will appear in the mask, as the vigilance needed to maintain it wears them down over time.

So, you quite literally, cannot fake your character.
You can fake your actions, you can be misleading, you can say things you don't believe.
But a discerning person will test you, and unless you absolutely betray yourself to the core of your identity repeatedly, you will fail.

A person, no matter how bad they are, no matter how much they wish to trick you into getting something they do not deserve from you, cannot sell their soul over and over again.
This is simply too taxing to their true nature and identity. They will break, and manifest themselves.

This is why if you take things slowly and test repeatedly, you need not fear anything.
The true self has a way of asserting itself. They will at one point or another do or not do something which is not congruent with what they wish to portray.
That's your gotcha moment.

This is also why you should be inherently suspicious of anybody who tries to rush you into anything.
Why the hurry?
Honest people will take the time to build a meaningful relationship. There is no rush. You have a lifetime to cultivate something quite wonderful.

When you're on borrowed time, when you need that deal signed, when the clock is ticking, when you don't know how long you can keep up the sham for - that's when you want to hurry
Hurrying is never a good thing.
If you hurry art, you get ugliness.
Our personalities are art too.

And so your character is built over a lifetime of collective experiences, of a morality developed on your philosophical and theological research, but too based on your life's experiences, both with suffering and your inner evil.
Your spirit is always there, growing, unwavering.

It is your hubris to think because you adorn a mask, people cannot see who you are.
Like a baby that believes because it cannot see you, you cannot see it.
On the contrary, you can never mask your character, only your actions and your views.
And the house of cards is fragile.

Given sufficient stress testing, you can hide nothing.
You have the evasion, but not the endurance.
Which is why all will be revealed in due time.
And why you're better off spending your mortality cultivating your true self, rather than painting your masks.
Live in honesty.

Just know living in honesty does not preclude the use of cunning, on the contrary, the righteous use of cunning is essential to the toolkit of all great men.
If this seems counterintuitive to you, I can empathise.
But if it seems paradoxical, you have a long way to go.
