DRK RP is a pretty sharp sword to fall upon right now, to be honest. Even though HW launched months ago, I've little-to-no doubt that people are still discovering the class, going through the quests, maybe not even reading them, who knows?
Anyway, with people still in the dark, pun intended, about the lore of the job, it's unsurprising to see different takes on the way it's presented. The main gripe I have with more DRK RPers is the choice to be super edgy and as dank as possible. It's really uninteresting, and doesn't do much to make a character approachable. I don't know much about 'voidsent' DRKs, but... sounds a bit sketchy. I have the utmost respect for those who treat the DRK as it is presented within the story, because let's be fair, the DRK quests are fantastic. They give you just about anything you could need to understand the Dark Knight, and how they work.
I RP DRK in the way it is presented in the story, too. Emotion-driven, but not overly cynical. Controversial, I know. But what can I say? If the WoL can be a goodie-two shoes while being a DRK, my character can at least not be as dour-faced as a 90 year old nun.
