I like to be well-prepared and have a feeling of what is going to fly given the rules and what isn't. Alternatively, if I trust the GM (i.e. he's well versed in the system), I'll tell him about a concept I'd be interested in and ask him how I might realize it given the available options.So, if a character concept doesn't see play, it wil be because the game/campaign fizzles before it starts.I remember a rather unusual character I created for a mini campaign in 'Das Schwarze Auge' which we had planned to play during our vacation. It was supposed to be the side-kick of a famous Indy-style archeologist/explorer who had basically inherited all of his idol's stuff after his unfortunate untimely demise due to a death trap while delving into a forgotten temple. So, he set out trying to get famous (and rich!) himself, studying the deceased's notes and travelogues for potential adventuring sites - or grave-robbery.</blockquote>
