You should see me with a few drinks in me after a college poli sci class... you think you're dark and cynical...

The other thing is that this is a game, a fiction, and as such shouldn't it be a bit more fun and sophisticated than our rather plain real lives? Sci-fi movies and spy thrillers and the like all layer on the intrigue and deeper plot, so why is it so hard for others to do the same for their own character? Its hard to write a good backstory for your character but it shouldn't be that hard to at least follow the currents of your pre-written faction outline. Be devious, don't just be another teenager from Kentuky with an M4, cause you could do that in real life anyway. Be something fun and different. I'm left wing at heart but I'm 2nd in charge of one of the largest (and probably soon to be slightly more corrupt) shipping corporations in Sirius.
