Alright so, a Garlean experiment on a moogle that gave them magitek cyborg enhancements including a cloaking field that mimics the appearance and feel of a human type person!Â
Kidding aside, it happens to lots of people. Start with one idea, another one that might be neater or more interesting to you comes in, then another, ect ect. Like the others said, it's not so much the concepts or things that happen to the character as it is the base, solid core, foundation of the character itself.
Just like people, you take away your job, you're still you.. you're a more stressed and slightly poorer version, but you all the same. The thing with creating a past for a character is, just like us, it doesn't have to be just about one thing. No one person is made up a single event in their life but a collection of them. So if you come up with something else later, just.. find some place it fits in the time line if you really want it to exist and tweek and nudge from there.
I always have an idea of past history for my character in my head and add to it as RP and idea's come up that make sense. Especially for ADHD types of people.
There's nothing wrong with it really, but one thing that does help keep it solid, is having RP'd with others that know of it. Once it's out there, retconning it for a new idea just isn't something you'd want to do so it helps you keep with it and then, just add more later.
