First of all you need to draw the character in your favorite drawing program. Then save the image in the folder that you have made for your project.
Then load it with 'load image'. You can then use 'sprite'. If you don't know what or how these work, type them in to DB and put your mouse cursor over it, and press F1.

(off-topic) for future reference, make sure you at least make a hint of what your problem is in your thread title. help doesnt tell us anything.

uhm, right click, move over "new" and left click on "folder" ?

for images, goto file, save, and navigate to your folder in paint?

Read stickys, it saves everyone a lot of time!!

This should help:

Edit: This is another sticky, it's a bit confusing but it seems much more specific to the kind of game you are working on:
