Of course, if I'm wrong, feel free to disregard this entire post.I think it may be the extrovert to introvert switch that's throwing you off. You may be used to showing intensity through voice, facial expression, and gestures. Your current character mostly just acts. And you're not sure how or why. For an introvert, it's the inner dialogue that shows a "richness". Ask yourself what your PC thinks of other characters? NPCs? Enemies? Allies? These are all things you may be used to answering "on the fly" as your character interacts with other characters. In this case, these are questions you could maybe ask yourself when other characters take actions, particularly significant, important ones.In addition, ask yourself how your character feels about themselves and their skills. You've said they're good at killing (in essence), but don't want to be an assassin. Your character may not show it, but being a LG with a "soldier" mentality, yet being good at being the "sniper" (you've said he uses a longbow) is probably a significant source of inner conflict.And even if your character is an introvert, does not mean they will not talk. Often, quite a bit. Introverts are (generally, of course; all this is generally) not good at "idle chit-chat", and lose energy through social interaction (that's the key difference between an introvert and an extrovert; an extrovert gains energy through social interaction). AFAIK, that is. I imagine your character may have quite a bit to say about their real feelings with their ability to kill from afar, and potentially with no opportunity for the target, or enemy to fight back...Of course, it's also entirely possibly I am barking up the wrong tree. In that case, hopefully someone will find this helpful.</blockquote>
