I have a series of paragraph styles and character styles. When i go to create a new text frame, it defaults to a specific paragraph AND character style. I don't know why it started doing this but I want the default characters style to be "none." How do i do that?

This happened because you selected the styles with nothing selected.  You get out of it the same way: deselect everything and set the styles to your desired ones

In agreement with Dave, with nothing selected, set Character Styles to None.
