Yo! Â I just joined this site a few days ago and got an awesome welcome so thank you all for that! Â Now I'm trying to come up with a concept for my character, a Miqo'te named R'ihkshi Tia. Â He's a Seeker of the Sun.
I've been trying to think up concepts while I play (and also while I binge watch Parks and Rec) but so far I haven't come up with anything solid. Â I've been doing research on the race and stuff and my struggle is coming up with a concept that is original, believable, and one that can allow me to RP without being that brooding person in the corner that other people have to walk up to interact with. Â I have no problem with that, I simply prefer initiating RP myself.
So! Â I'll put down a few of my ideas below and I'd appreciate any feedback you all have to offer. Â I'm still very new to the game so I would like the opinions of veterans who know the lore more than I do
 Â
Note, these ideas are very basic and nowhere near fleshed out.
1. Â Hard-shelled nerd. Â This one is probably my favorite. Â In this scenario he would live in one of the cities. Â I read that the Miqo'te are common in that deserty place but I like the oceany one a lot so far. Â While an introverted concept he would most likely feel compelled to be social on occasion due to the fact that he'd be pretty smart and feel the need to be smart at people. Â This could change. Â Again, this is just a very basic idea that is very must subject to change. Â He'd have a pretty tough exterior and may come off as a rough asshole but if one really got to know him they'd discover something different on the inside. Â Well-read, interested in stories, cares about where he lives, that sort of stuff. Â I'll be honest, I really love Parks and Rec and had a dream about a mixture of Ron and Ben, hence this concept and my love of it. Â He'd probably have left his tribe due to not feeling like he fit in and wanting a more solitary life.
2. Â Thief seeking righteousness. Â I had this idea at work a few days ago. Â In this scenario he would have stolen something (most likely from a city) in order to help someone in his tribe, perhaps an ailing elder or someone. Â He would've been seen and tracked back to the tribe. Â He would've gotten into a bunch of trouble and chosen to leave so as not to bring shame/authorities or whatever to the tribe. Â And now he would try to make up for what he did in small ways. Â Hey, maybe this could even be combined with option 1 as the reason for him leaving his tribe. Â Could be a reason for not being around the deserty place and instead be in the oceany place. Â Thoughts?
3. Â Inexperienced adventurer. Â I don't like this idea as much but I thought I'd put it here just in case to get opinions and whatnot. Â Young guy, leaves his tribe for (money? Â glory? Â knowledge? Â to see the world?). Â Is able to go to many places and learn stuff and work for money, learn new trades. Â This one's very basic and not very fleshed out.
I look forward to hearing what you guys have to say! Â Thanks in advance!
