Yeah, same here. Playing against type, even in small ways, helps keep a character interesting for me. Silas can be low class and blunt and he knows this and tries not to be. Unfortunately, now that he no longer has Dartis and Caramip to temper his anti-social behaviors he's gonna slip a bit. Maybe he needs a bracelet that says 'WWDD?'.
And it looks like you two are stumbling into trouble just as quickly (though, admittedly, through no fault of your own).
