Ever had an idea for a character which you thought would be cool, but never had the time or inspiration to actually get it started up?
Well, post it here!
Other Discovery RPers can critique the idea, and maybe their own ideas and suggestions might give you the inspiration you need to finally get your character up and running. Or, if you have a great idea but have no real plans for it, it might inspire someone else to make a similar character.
I'll start. With the recent talks about a lack of pirates, I had the idea to create a posh Bretonian husband-and-wife pirate team piloting a Barghest (which is a two-seater bomber). Probably Junker tagged and generic Pirate ID'd, and completely neutral to the Corsair/Outcast war (and, because of that, not using any Corsair/Outcast weapons).
Not sure if I'll ever get that character(s) started up, just a random idea.
Well, I had the crazy idea of two pilots in one ship who are constantly arguing while speaking to other characters. With the current chat system that's just not feasible. In practice it would look something like this:
[Pirate]: Hei you there, drop your cargo ASAP!
[Player X]: Mike: We're humped.
[Player X]: Frank: Hei, give it a rest! I will handle the situation.
[Player X]: Mike: Yeah right, you can't even fly this bloody ship ...
Instead of being funny, it would be confusing at best.

I've been toying with the idea of a Cardamine-addicted character who refuses to take the drug, overcoming his cravings by counting cards in his head, playing chess in his head and the like, much like Atton Rand from KotoR 2: The Sith Lords prevents Force techniques being used upon him.
I was sporting around with Meiun yesterday and stopped on a Lane Hacker base. In and out of the bar I clicked to listen to the rumors...
Man, Lane Hackers SO fit in with Meiun's lifestyle... I'll never make Meiun into a pirate, so it made me start wrestling with the roleplay of a pirate that is just too rich for his own good.
Best of the best ships, weps, loadout, goods, booze, drugs.
I'm thinking like Nicolas Cage in "Gone in 60 Seconds", or Vin Diesel in "XXX"
