I was reading Casanova's autobiography around the time that I made C'kayah. I'd never played a particularly charming character before (I've played charismatic characters, but their charisma didn't come from charm), so I thought it would be fun to try and do something like that. Casanova's autobio is long, and filled with dialogue, so I started out just using his speech mannerisms and seeing where that led. With that much material to study, it came pretty easily, and it set the stage for C'kayah to be this charming rogue with a silver tongue. The first FC I was in needed someone to smuggle explosives for them, so that led to C'kayah being a smuggler.
Setoh was originally a single-purpose alt for a story that required a bad guy in the vein of Leon the Professional. I ended up liking him enough that I kept him around. I gradually fleshed him out some more and made him more three dimensional, but both his willingness to do anything for money and his skills (which are not superhuman) came from that.
