Brooding characters are becoming rarer (however, rude/outspoken characters are fairly common) likely due to a lack of a sympathetic response to these tendencies. Weaknesses often are rare in a character that is meant to be your protagonist in a world of competing personalities, understandably so. To attract RP, you need to be easier to understand and agree with presumably.
So is your character unique, and how? Do you have flaws or motivations that are very human and interesting, that evoke some theme or profound concept? How do you justify your character's raison d'etre and desires?
Something will overlap another at some point in life.
I guess mine could be called not so unique ...
An old soldier with a past, that took on a new life because of the situation he is in now (yeah working on a thing here)
I like all character ideas anyway.
