Oh, I forgot to mention: an established in-lore place where orphans do gather is the Acorn Orchard. The Carpenters' Guild built the playground for the orphans of the Calamity and the carpenters still take care of them and make toys for them all the time.
To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
