No, not necessarily:

I am not talking about quoting.
Capitalization is for the first word in a sentence, unless it's quoting a lower case word, and for names.

I would just write it as follows.

1) character
2) fa

I know that. The ones I wrote were meant as list items, that is, I listed the words.

Well, whether they are list items or not, they still don't merit capitalization. They are not names. That's my opinion.
But at least I give you credit for not putting periods after those words.

I know you don't agree, and I hate to prolong this discussion further. But you are just taking the trouble of going back and forth between capital and lower-case letters with no benefit at all. In fact you have the opposite result.
