Problem with a class. C#

Question

So I have my variables set up in my class file, then...

public Character(string aCharName, double aCharHpMax, double aCharHpCurrent, double aCharSpeed, double aCharExpMax, double aCharExpCurrent, double aCharDamage, int aCharLevel, bool aIsCombatant)
{
//Sets up public attributes that we can easily use when creating different characters.
charName = aCharName;
charHpMax = aCharHpMax;
charHpCurrent = aCharHpCurrent;
charSpeed = aCharSpeed;
charExpMax = aCharExpMax;
charExpCurrent = aCharExpCurrent;
charDamage = aCharDamage;
charLevel = aCharLevel;
isCombatant = aIsCombatant;

//Keeps track of how many characters we have made.
numberOfCharacters++;
}

The field variables equaling the parameter variables are defined above them with no values assigned.

Now... outside of my class file and inside of a form file I have this...

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Create Characters
//name, hpmax, hpcurr, speed, expmax, expcurrent, damage, level
Character pcCharacter = new Character("Protagonist", 20, 20, 5, 100, 1, 5, 1, false);
Character rat = new Character("Rat", 5, 5, 3, 100, 1, 2, 1, true);

//Set Up Player
PlayerName.Text = "Name: " + pcCharacter.aCharName;
}

It will not let me pull the attributes off of pcCharacter, defined just above it. It's saying that the attribute aCharName is read only, but I don't understand why as I defined it in a public class constructor.

Do I have to make a get/set method for this or is there a way to make it MORE public somehow so that I can easily pull that information when I type 'pcCharacter.' or 'rat.' or whatever object I make underneath the 'Character' class.

There is some code missing, but I guess there is not such Attribute as you initialize "charName". aCharName is a parameter of your constructor and therefore out of scope at this point in code.
