* Lays two cents on the discussion jar *
I don't personally believe in quantitative intelligence, so I don't think anyone's dumb, or smart. They simply know and has more experience and affinity in one area and another. That being said, I personally feel sometimes we have more difficulty playing a certain role than others, due to how we are as a roleplayer, and our own experiences as tastes. I, for example, can't really do long-worded characters, or villains, because English isn't my first language, so it has a lot of hiccups, and that I get really paranoid about overdoing when I do villains. This is character roles I simply don't feel comfortable playing.
Can someone that isn't witty play a witty character? I believe frankly that yes, with effort you can pull something good. Early characters are always weird, Quki used to be such a snowflake when I first envisioned her, but with the experience I got roleplaying, I finally got her in a mold I like, so that's great. So, after a while, you learn. So I guess my answer is yes, if you do want you can; might take more effort than normal, but no pain no gain.
