So since he's this uber strong for his level his personality and outlook on life are somewhat schewed... LE, He believes that destiny controls all things. He believes that since he is so powerful he is inherently right (destiny will not let the right person fail). He believes that if you fail to fend him off, he may do anything he wishes to you and he's in the right. He believes the good guy always wins, and since he rarely loses fights (only to people of higher level, and then he knows that they've had more training than he has) he must be good. And the thing is since noone of "equivalent skill" has beaten him, he cannot be convinvced that his outlook on life is twisted. What do you think? Suggestions? Feedback? ps, sorry for the char opt bit at the top

But if your character is uber-powerful, it could be very disruptive to your party; the next time a fellow player will loose his character, he will try to build a better character than yours, and it will lead to an endless powergaming. The mentality of your character could be good with a weak character and could lead to funny moments, since he will need the rest of his party to win, and all the party would be the Good Guys, not only himself. If you want to keep your powerful character, you could use the mentality of a man who wishes to get more power into a specific order or group. He will respect the general laws, and will help the rest of his party to achieve mission if he finds a way that could make him more powerful, or if it can lead him to a better position in his order.
