Browsing some Fallout modding sites, I spotted this and thought it might be useful for everyone out there. I don't believe this has been posted here before, but if I am wrong, send this thread to the Vats.
From DjUnique's Fallout modding tools page:

The default character for the mapper is located in master.dat/premade/blank.gcd which is the file you have to overwrite with your custom character.
Create a new character either in the game or by using the edit obj_dude function (note that the screen fades to black after you're done, so you'll have to restart the mapper afterwards) and save it to a GCD file. Then copy it to data\premade as blank.gcd
If everything went fine, you should now have your custom character as the default test character.
