Well, it was recently pointed out that nobody ever seems racist in FF14, and while I view that as a good thing (having run into plenty of antisemitism is real life), I decided to go ahead and work it into my character. Playing out negative traits is rewarding in it's own way.
Actually, I used to play a necromancer that hated elves. He traveled with one annoyingly perky elf named Nunally for years. He referred to her exclusively as 'breed' and derided her constantly. And then he showed his hand by detonating a soul-bomb on himself to give his party time to escape. His death paid off in the end, as he was able to peel himself off the Wall of the Faithless in the abyss just long enough to drag the villain back through a portal to hell. His name was Kashan Krowes, and he is one of my all-time favorite characters.
Of course, that was in a radically different game, but it's a fun anecdote nonetheless. For me, anyway.

Each man longs to pursue his dream. Each man is tortured by this dream, but the dream gives meaning to his life. Even if the dream ruins his life, man cannot allow himself to leave it behind. In this world, is man ever able to possess anything more solid, than a dream?
