Here’s my code:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class Characterlist : MonoBehaviour {
	public bool createcharacter;
	public float scrollbar;
	public bool choosecast;
	public float scrollbartwo;
	public string name = "";
	public bool showcharacter;
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
		createcharacter = false;
		choosecast = false;
		showcharacter = false;
	}
	
	// Update is called once per frame
	void Update () {
	
	}
	void OnGUI ()
	{
		GUI.Box (new Rect (400, 10, 800, 800), "Character");
		if (GUI.Button (new Rect (500, 100, 600, 100), "Create new character"))
						createcharacter = true;
		if (createcharacter) {
			scrollbar = GUI.HorizontalScrollbar (new Rect (30, 40, 100, 20), scrollbar, 1.0f, 5.0f, 1.0f);
			GUI.Label (new Rect (10, 10, 100, 40), "Class:");
			scrollbartwo = GUI.HorizontalScrollbar (new Rect (30, 90, 100, 20), scrollbartwo, 1.0f, 5.0f, 1.0f);
			GUI.Label (new Rect (10, 60, 100, 40), "Race:");
			GUI.Box (new Rect (0, 0, 200, 250), "");
			if (GUI.Button (new Rect (20, 200 ,150 , 40), "Create character"))
			{
				createcharacter = false;
				showcharacter = true;
				if (showcharacter == true)
				{
					GUI.Box (new Rect (100, 100, 100, 100), "asd");
				}
				}
			}
		if (createcharacter) {
						if (scrollbar == 4) {
								GUI.Label (new Rect (70, 10, 100, 40), "Mage");
						}
						if (scrollbar == 1) {
								GUI.Label (new Rect (70, 10, 100, 40), "Warrior");	
						}
						if (scrollbar < 4 && scrollbar > 1) {
								GUI.Label (new Rect (70, 10, 100, 40), "Ranger");
						}
						if (scrollbartwo == 4) {
								GUI.Label (new Rect (70, 60, 100, 40), "Human");
						}
						if (scrollbartwo == 1) {
								GUI.Label (new Rect (70, 60, 100, 40), "Orc");	
						}
						if (scrollbartwo < 4 && scrollbartwo > 1) {
								GUI.Label (new Rect (70, 60, 100, 40), "Elf");
						}
			GUI.Label (new Rect (10, 150, 100, 40), "Name:");
			name = GUI.TextField (new Rect (70, 150, 50, 20), name);
				}

	}
}

Pardon me, but I think you’re doing something wrong… I mean with a wrong logic.

If you want to add a GameObject named " character" to a list, you have to first set up a list.
This class of yours called Characterlist would be a good spot to do that.

Write this as your 3rd line ( it doesn’t have to be the 3rd line, but it must be before the line in which is wrote: public class Characterlist : MonoBehaviour)

using System.Collections.Generic;//This enables the Lists

Then add this in your class constructor:

public List<GameObject> ListOfCharacters = new List<GameObject>();

This way you’ll have a public list set up.
In the editor you can drag and drop there your characters.

You could even do so by code.

This assumes you know what a Class, a GameObject and a List are.
If you don’t then I encourage you to have a look at these links:
