Come now people, I have seen but a few creative characters in this game. Admittedly, many were not mine, but that gives me the modesty to honestly say, there should be more creativity within characters. You have mostly crafters, miners, heroes, non-heroes, slightly bad guys, and super villains. We need more than this, we need the common folk as well yes, but we need the freak shows, the weird people, the ones that turn heads, the one that arouse snickers. We need people with long pointy noses, hunchbacks, someone with two left feet! Someone with a severe speech impediment, someone slightly mentally disabled, someone SEVERELY mentally disabled, someone OCD, someone afraid of EVERYTHING but obviously the basic stuff needed for survival.
I'm certain you people can come up with good ones, I can, and I am certainly no more creative than a majority of the people in this community. Let's see some ideas.
EDIT: Oh, and off-topic, this is my 1000th post \o/
