I play my character as Drk-type, but it's hard to explain.
I tie his character closely with the struggles seen against the WoL and their 'darkside' that ensues during a few cutscenes on the level 50 Drk quests (iirc.)
Rah also has a split personality, which can be sort of tied to the fact that he is what he and ignores his instincts to cause havoc, do bad things, etc. Basically it's the Rah that is capable of love, reason and compassion for others vs. his instincts to do bad things, tell everyone how he "really" feels, etc.
The drk thing happens to tie very nicely with what I already have going in his giant, far-reaching mess of a backstory. I definitely wouldn't say he's not your stereotypical dark knight perhaps--he uses his inherent dark abilities as a means to protect that which he values most, and he's perpetually at odds with said darker side. I wouldn't say he's a certified dark knight, but he's that way naturally. His is probably different than a regular dark knight's, and that's okay!
In Rah's case, I would even argue that the "darkside" is actually the real Rah, or who he should've been...but for space's sake I won't indulge the rest of the surrounding context for that.Â
How you want apply that to your character is up to you. But a much of it seems to be turning one's suffering and negativity into a shield to protect others and one's values. I'm very interested to see how you put this together, though! ^^;;
