[QUOTE="kigmatzomat, post: 3233916, member: 9254"] Hear, hear. I played one of those "my life was pretty good but I wanna be a hero" characters. Yeah, I gave him one traumatic event with a quirk (always wears gloves to cover the scars from a serious burn when he was a blacksmith's apprentice) but it wasn't a defining moment, other than being an adverse situation he didn't let slow him down. The character resulted in a new skill in our campaigns (carousing: the art of being pleasant in social situations and generally improving the mood), tended to invest modest amounts of coin with various bakers & cooks to take on apprentices so he could be sure to have his favorite treats in the future, and generally felt a bar fight (subdual weapons only) was a great way to make friends. I won't call him the focal point of the party but he was pretty darned integrated into the setting and far from forgettable. [/QUOTE]
