The main story is geared towards telling the tale of a single hero for the most part and there is absolutely nothing out there that will ever make a single role-player worthy of portraying the sole hero in a multi-player game. I'd be fine with someone tastefully presenting their character as part of a greater force, though - be it one of the Grand Companies, an enemy faction or even the Scions. I'll likely be incorporating some of the flavour lore I've learned during the course of the main storyline, though. There's some pretty interesting nuggets of information such as giving insight into the various plights major settlements face and their local superstitions and so on.
