On the roleplaying in a bubble thing: That's fine if you intent to stay in the bubble. I had someone jump my case thought because her super overpowered demi-god wasn't accepted by me because her friends totally let her play it -- therefore everyone had to accept it. Me, I'm not personally comfortable roleplaying with any sort of demon/angel/primal. Voidsents are the exception since they seem so common, but even then only as glorified NPC's. I'm unsure about people having them as their main.
Actually, I'm okay with people roleplaying fantastical things as NPCs or Villians in a story -- if it's lore compliant of course -- as long as it's for a specific story and not trying to interact at the Quicksand. Yes, I'd even be okay with someone playing some embodiment of Garuda for a STORY, letting the character go once the story is over. Stories need fantastical elements. I get that. And things are much more rich when someone is behind the wheel of the villian or thing.
I really only have one peice of advice (Besides follow lore, because that's honestly my preference) and it was said above. Build a character that happens to be a class, not a class that happens to be a character.
