Best kind of belligerence is lore-backed belligerenceÂ
Haha yeah, I do that with Jet'a Vann. The Keeper family he comes from was of the stricter approach to the Keeper's traditions. Females ruled and males were not even allowed to learn how to fight, instead helping inside the family to cook, work hides and make medicines.
Because of a tragedy in his past, Jet forced himself to break the rule of his family and learned Thaumaturgy (and took lives with it, a terrible sin in his family as among the Vann they are taught that Only those with the power to give life have Menphina's permission to take others' lives. The soul of a creature killed by a male will never find eternal rest and will wander in torment and sorrow as a condemned ghost, and so will their assassin when his life is claimed.), but even now Jet'a is very respectful of women and intimidated by them, seeing them as his superiors. He has kind of a racist scorn towards Seekers of the Sun males, as to Jet'a's point of view they disrespect their females by mating with more than one in their lifespan.
It's weird, but it's a kind of racism I like to RP for a change XD.
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.
