You're kinda right. Everyone is special, that's the problem. There are too many Mary Sues, and not enough believable characters.

I try to make sure my characters are out of the ordinary, but still have faults and problems enough to make them interesting.
The only person you're impressing with a stupidly special character, is yourself. Masturbation basically.
Try ganging up with some people and roleplaying a believable family, like, five brothers or something like that.
Try roleplaying a realistic romantic relationship between one of your characters and someone else's.
Try not playing the Order.
Try giving all of your characters a crippling fault or a negative aspect to their personality.
Try being, I dunno, more normal.
Try making a good character, than killing them off somehow, an execution or a lost battle for example.

I kinda agree with it all.


Though I believe the Order can be roleplayed decently. But that'll need people to ditch the Osiris and fly recon in fighters. But that's the "I WANT BIG AND SHINY" syndrome. It's everywhere. Some people just love big ships.


P.S. The NPCs actually helping newbies is also a great idea. Always loved reading the lulzy news and rumors. They're pretty interesting when you have nothing to do.
