Character guide in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Character guide

Personality Shy, awkward, strange individual. Bad at people. Very anxious, can't stay still, hates eye contact. Feels like their brain works differentely to others. Empathetic and sensitive to the point of being overwhelming. Hides their emotions until they have a glacial exterior as a survival mechanism, but this inevitable cracks at some point.
Deadpan, serious, seemingly uncaring. They're very clueless about a lot of things, usually affection. This means they get annoyed more often than embarrassed. Once they do get attached, though, it's a very intense feeling. Few things make them lose their cool, yet they have a storm of emotions inside.
Strong will, driven, stubborn, loud, witty, confident, big prankster. Says they have everything under control yet never seem to actually do. Never seems to run out of tricks or rebuttals. This intense exterior tends to mask weaknesses, insecurities, or a lot of pain.
Alignment "The strong protect the weak." Redemption vs prevention of harm via murder.
A N A R C H Y. Questionable means.
Backstory Very strong loyalty.
Humble, happy family that died tragically, and they now treasure them somehow. Perhaps going on adventures to have something to tell them.
Adopted by a capable individual, being their apprentice in a dangerous field.
Abuse, feeling like they're not good enough, blaming themselves for something that isn't their fault. This might lead to a corruption of their alignment, wanting to get revenge of the world for what they've suffered, whilst at the same time wanting to prove their worth and gain affection.
