Let's not forget tribes too. It took a lot of drake blood and all kinds of favors to get the U tribe to tell me where to find a damn sandworm, and even now when I go back to them they treat me like crap
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.
