Right, so i've been eyeing this thread since it very much has to do with how I RP my own character, there might be a few problems though and i'm not sure if you guys are okay with it which is why i'll post this
Firstly, because I looked into the RP aspect of miqo'te -after- I made him, my name is not entirely correct though I have him introduce himself slightly differently ingame. His display name is Athir, but he introduces himself as K'athir. Not a big deal, right?
More importantly though, I took the "last name" (it's actually a title, since males don't use last names as far as I know) of Nunh, I didn't know what that signified when I made the character but I -have- made it a part of the character and it's very strongly related to his identity/behaviour. That is to say, he is a very traditional miqo'te whom is a bit of a father protective type. aka he is a gentle and even humorous giant but stern when it comes to certain things, mostly breaking traditions of the tribe he is against.
Which can be anything from (if it relates to him) not respecting those under the wing of a Nunh, or worse, endangering them, to things like leaving the tribe which he very much see's as abandoning your family and friends. It represents a lack of care, selfishness, recklessness in his eyes. Even worse if it's a male that wants to become a Nunh by doing so, because that one is weak and did not respect the tradition of challenging another Nunh and thus be actually deserving of being one.
To clarify, I don't RP him being that to assume any kind of leadership role (Nunh generally don't become leaders anyway. It's just something you are or are not) It's just fitting of him, and part of him. It brings interesting RP in my opinion in that he's so much on the traditions of the tribe. He already convinced one tribeless (born tribeless that is, else he might have a problem with them) of the worth of having such a family by simply talking what it means to be in one, what you gain. How good life is knowing that you always have those close to you and those you can trust and rely on, as even the strongest need a helping hand at one point or another.
TL;DR is there any problem with me RPing him a Nunh? Because it's rather important to his character. If not-- add me ingame. Character name is "Athir Nunh" looking forward to RPing with you lot
