Wait, this game has lore? Could have fooled me....


Joking aside, I don't think it's possible to not have at least parts of your character in grey areas of the lore, seeing as how we don't even really know anything like what kind of culture we're in. We can make guesses from how NPCs act but all the important stuff is left in the dark. The devs could at any time lore bomb anyone with info that no one would ever expect. It's inevitable when none of our characters are canon.

That said, I'm not a fan of retconning but recognize other RPers will need to do it at some point, possibly even myself. I try to work around retconning if possible by offering up alternative explanations but I will scrap those and retcon anyway if they're too implausible/not very fun ideas.
