Hello Prosopeio,
A quick question about the character, have you had the chance to play through a few of the melle class story lines? The Monk questline touches on Ala'Mhigo as well as Rhalgr, and while I won't spoil it I think it might offer some interesting context to your character if you incorporate their "gospels" as it were.
I think the idea of focusing on some one who is fixated on the constructive properties of destruction or "tearing down" is interesting and could lead into a lot of character growth. I would how ever be wary of using Dalamund as an inspiration for seing destruction as a "positive" force. While you certainly can, A lot of PCs' and NPCs have lost a lot to the calamity and might be offended by anything other then solemn respect. That could how ever be your intention, or an avenue to explore your character, perhaps not realizing how much it affected some people he comes to reanalyze his own feelings towards the event or destruction itself? Either way, plenty of possibilities.
So far as "Building a Character" I try to keep it pretty "natural", years ago when Quarimar was new, he was pretty much a blank slate with a few character traits, but people, events and conflict grew him, made him change his mind on things, made other things more important. he's certainly "grown up" so don't worry about trying to make something "just right" from the get go. Maybe just start with an idea, throw him into some conversation and see how he responds.
If you'd like to continue discussing the idea you can of course post here or reach me in game depending on how you'd like to continue, Quarimar can usually be found in Ul'dah though i'm sure I could contrive a reason for him to speak with you elsewhere.
Edit: OH! and when you have the chance, could you go into the control panel and add server/character name? not critical, but it helps when trying to reach people or provide information.
