what lore breaking is as opposed to lore bending tends to be subjective when in smaller doses. that's what I'll have to figure out. how to bend the lore a smidge to suit me and the people that I will end up RPing with, rather than break it outright.
I think I should also say that it takes a whole lot from any of my characters to keep me interested long-term, so I don't get tired of a character before I even finish developing them. that's why I'm not about to start with a personally less interesting character. it's all a matter of views and personal preferences, anyway. I'll just say again, my most successful OCs in any place, with everyone, have always had that special-snowflake risk. if I knew what I was doing right away, I probably wouldn't have even needed to ask the question, haha. hence asking and a little paranoia, orz
personally, in regards to the suggestions, I'm most likely to do something similar to WHM without actually being a proper WHM. either way, bless that ignorance is bliss, because there's no need for glory over on my end by way of titles. I'd rather get glory for having an interesting character, but y'know, gotta make one before I can have one.
I don't know how everyone at large rolls, but I'm going to play through the story first, before I decide what to do, haha. until I play through the rest, I won't be sure how to approach it. I'm still in the development process, so I'm not too worried about it, and probably won't 100% finish the development process until I start seeing more cutscenes with the important figures and such.
(and on another note, I have a feeling this character would be far more likely to be friends with the sylph than the Gridanians... I am totally going after that Sylph-Friend title when I get up there in levels. whoo, lv24 as of today.)
either way, delicious ideas and feedback are wonderful, thanks to everyone for giving me their views and opinions! (and ideas in some cases.)
