If someone has an idea for a better name please say so. What I mean is, what stuff do you tend to do with your character that, while lore compliant, aren't completely intended? I tend to take things that are inherently evil and twist them into good intentions. Take, for example, Angolben Verion (Who I actually need to use some day...), a Void Worshipper who believes in sanctity of life and equality, as well as a lust for knowledge. Another example, is an upcoming character who came from a group of people led by a Death Mage who used her curses for the good of others or for wholesome purposes. (Ex., One person wanted to be a cat, and she made him a cat and gave him instructions for what to do if he ever wanted to be human again).
I'm a degenerate. Most of the characters I end up enjoying most to play are eccentric and break the mold of sexuality and gender to the point of fluidity despite not engaging in any intimate actions. They are literal manifestations of twisting an eccentric nature to ridiculousness and resulting in some disturbing and discomforting results.
I love playing a manipulative playboy kind of character that ultimately ends up getting into trouble due to their ways.
I'm a fan of roleplaying as a witty recluse. My Maraya is quite literally the concept of "a wizard who locks himself in his tower all day".
i now love playing my slightly manish looking augusta. she isn't vain, and physical insults usually don't bother her like at all. you could call her a man all day and she'd be like "yeah i know". i plan on developing her more in the future, maybe making her hair LONGER. GOD FORBID. no but i love her squire boy bowlcut. she's a really nice friend to have, and a very loyal one at that as long as you're not a howlester enemy. i'd really have to say her character trope is "bruiser with a soft center" like the hulk.
I tend towards mischievous characters. And, a lot of my characters are very proud because I find doormat characters boring.
I seem to tend towards traditionally edgy characters (Vampires, criminals, vampirecriminals) then end up making them as unhedged as humanly possible, possibly with slight edge of edge to keep it from falling off the edge of unseriousness Also characters that get their race or one of their other defining characteristics revised into utter oblivion
