I can't say on having a bad guy character as it's been some time since I played a legitimate bad guy. I can say the reason for it: Often, whereever I go, there are just. too. many. of them. Apparently this isn't the case on Gilgamesh!
On Balmung, and mind I mostly see the who come to the Grindstone (and Horace Rook is probably the scariest of them), the majority of them seem to be neutral. Not -really- evil but not -really- good either. More inclined to be self-concerned and while they have tendencies to -be- good to others or at least protective, just as often they have tendencies to freak out and punch others in the face for not-a-whole-lot-of-reason.
I enjoy seeing black and white good/bad guys once in a while. Without them everyone feels too neutral. I can't say Siobhain is a 'white knight', honestly, I don't think anyone assumes she is when they first meet her. But personality wise she's about as good and honorable as they come. -Yes- it's mixed in with a solid blend of 'I'll destroy you if you touch that woman, even if she asks me not to' but otherwise pretty wholly good. She's a fairly altruistic character as well, despite how brusque she can be and I personally very much enjoy playing her. I get the feeling she's an original and memorable character. She's a 'traditional Paladin' by my view.
1. A paragon of chivalry; a heroic champion.
2. A strong supporter or defender of a cause.
She's a religious knight who aimed to become a Sultansworn but didn't want to lock herself down to Ul'dah where she'd always be forced to keep shadow politics in the back of her mind. Just didn't fly with her. So she left. Not totally in line with being Lawful Good, I suppose. I'm looking forward to meeting plenty of bad guys but thus far-- way more neutrals. Waaaay more neutrals.
