    Problem you have is that your character covers the light so it makes shadow 360 degrees. It's like in real world when you eat a bulb: No one will see it's on...

    Second problem is that even if you place the light away from the character when you connect that to your character it will be"sucked in". In other words light will be under your character no matter where you placed it. I am not sure why is this happening, I consider it is a bug but that's how it is at the moment.

    Workaround: connect an object to the character and connect the light source to that object instead. Light needs to be on to of it so it will not block it.
