Hey! It's been a while, I suddenly disappeared as soon as I made my debut. I should be around for longer this time. Anyways, I had a couple of ideas for my character, and I need some help making sure he's consistent with lore/some general advice. I know his name and what he's going to look like, and I have two very different ideas on how to build the character. First, he's a Hellsguard. Now, for the ideas:
1: A more mercenary take on the character. He's not evil, just very... well, just say he has a fondness for material stability. A sort of thief like Robin Hood/Goemon Ishikawa, he also gives away stuff he doesn't want to the poor (He likes rare treasures and armaments, he'll steal and rob regular stuff, but will end up giving it away if he doesn't need it) and also duels people and takes their weapons when he wins as a point of pride (Wheee~! Stuck some Benkei in there too!). He tends to follow his own rules, and will readily flee rather than face a tough fight. Though when he is forced to fight he is formidable. He is more "progressive" than many of his Hellsguard brethren, though still retains the desire for fame (or infamy) and recognition of his skills. He is much swifter than he looks, and even trained as a ninja, but was too impatient to complete the training. To some up his strengths; he is skilled and quick, but lazy and impatient. Personality-wise, at first he seems serious or stoic, but he is anything but. He bluffs to hide his rather impressive cowardice, and is otherwise prone to being sarcastic and snarky.
2. All business. This version of the character looks the same, but is completely different. He is a mage which seeks power over anything else, and desires to master all forms of magic. In a sense, he wants to be a master "Sage" like Tellah from FFIV. Although he is blunt and kinda scary if you don't know him, he actually isn't a mean guy, and will usually help out if someone needs his help. His desire to master all forms of magic and to gain ultimate power is more of a "personal mastery" thing than "I want to rule the world!" thing.
I also have no idea which gods to let each of them worship. Oschon for the "bandit" and Rhalgr for the "mage"?
