Treading into OT territory again~ I just want to say that I think a majority of the new RPers to XIV are having that same crisis, you're not alone. The only reason you see a lot of us looking so comfortable in our skins is because we've been playing the characters since launch or even before. Two Three years can make one very comfortable. XD
The Echo.. well. I don't want to give too many spoilers or anything. But when you find out like.. a ton of CS's you've experienced were apparently Echos and your character didn't even know it.. ohgawd. It's so complicated. I pretty much severely play it down in Aysun's story. Luckily she has the personality that I can just have her pretend she doesn't have it, ignore it, etc, for fear of being different or abnormal.
Good luck with your characters. Just remember, if you start RPing them and suddenly discover they're coming out differently than you intended you can always tweak things! That's what happened with my own. While her basic personality and story remained the same, it was because I had deliberately kept it mundane until I knew for sure how she was going to be when I played. Some things were added or tweaked later. It'll all come together when you are in the game RPing!
