the most boring characters are those written with the express intent of not being boring - to avoid giving another "do what you want" reply (even though you really should just do what you want) I can list off some questions that I ask myself when I'm first setting up a RP character - maybe they'll help you idk
- What's the basic, overarching concept I'm aiming for here?
- Is this workable within the setting's bounds? (don't fuss too much about this but many roleplayers are strict about lore)
- Can I play this well? (if the answer is no, this isn't a reason to trash the idea - you just might need to learn a bit more)
- How will this character interact with others? (important - most people don't have a lot of fun rping with themselves)
- What drives/motivates them? (this is how you find plots!)
- Will I enjoy playing this in the long run? (this one's very important to avoid burnout!)
