Bryn's 40, that's a lot of backstory. Big events in her past are the main influence and motivators for today-Bryn, so it's very important to me that I have a solid idea of her past. As solid as it can be with what little Ala Mhigan lore we've been given so far anyway. Mumblegrumble.
But Bryn is an intensely private person. I find that this blend of having a character with a lot of history and yet having her be very guarded has been very fruitful for RP; I offer snippets about her past to the characters around her, and it's up to them to piece the whole story together. It's much more enjoyable than having her be an open book.
Eventually I will write her story. But it's awkward without more lore to work from.
