It works on both directions. And you can get to know a person really well by knowing how she roleplays or GMs. I try not to put too much of myself on my characters because I like them to be different people, not just look like extensions of myself. But I realize I end putting some things of myself on them even if I don't want to. They have come out of my brain and it's me who is behind them so I guess it's unavoidable.

You like the word or the act?
I don't know what is my favorite English word. My vocabulary is a result of mixed languages and a lot of made up words. I speak Spanish, swear in Galician and use some English words that don't have a proper translation or that somehow have made it to my everyday vocabulary. I also use some made phrases on other languages because c'est la vie!

So, Paizo forum-goers, I'd like to make a request of you, and/or present a (hopefully) fun exercise!
Obviously, this is a volunteer-basis kind of thing, but I'd appreciate it if any of you that wanted to made a character or two!
What kind? This one!
Though it's a 3.5 class, presume upgrades to PF skills, and give it any two additional class skills of your choice. Similarly, if a class feature has altered, give them the updated version (though not things that build off of that - so the new rage, for example, but no rage powers). Give it proficiency with any single weapon of your choice as a bonus proficiency. It can be a favored class.
Level five minimum. Mostly use any normal PF creation method.
There is no base class - give yourself 5 ranks each in bluff and disguise, and the Skill Focus feat in any skill you want at all; these are taken from your normal resources (so these are not bonus feats, but use up actual feat slots and skill slots). With this, your character is considered qualified for the class.
You may take other levels, but a total of levels under ten, please. Presume PF classes.
Despite the lore, there, no connection to the School of Broad Horizons. In fact, this is rather strongly Final Fantasy Tactics-based, though, if you've played that game, presuppose the character you make takes place a little more than 400 years later.
Really, this should surprise no one.
While the glories of the past have not quite been re-acquired, some hints of them have slowly been unearthed. The Glabados church is loosening, and a kind of Renaissance-cum-Industrial Revolution has been happening (and continues to) within their lifetimes. Train-like devices, by way of lightning-charged magicite (lightning charged "magical rock/crystal-like-thing"), has begun making travel more possible. Various low-grade magical devices have slowly become more commonplace, as various forms of magicite have been found and mined, and distributed through trade. Magicite was always known, and used, but relatively hard to come by - either due to general rarity and being difficult to find, or by way of the extreme danger it represents. Recently, breakthroughs in technology have changed this - a large number of different kinds may now be reliably located, while a number of the more dangerous kinds may be reliably approached, and thus mined.
That said, actual magic, like honest-to-goodness "I cast spells." magic is much more rare, and generally considered impossible. The actual pieces of auracite (a particular and rare form of magicite, considered a holy stone) from the FFT story are generally unknown, or believed to be a pure myth or perhaps a point of religious teaching.
The main continent/nation is a place called Ivalice (made of seven regions - Fovoham to the north, Gallione to the west, Lesalia to the middle, Zeltennia to the north-east and Limberry to the south-east, and Lionel to the south), but there are other continents - Romanda and Valendia (both to the north - west and east, respectively), Ordalia (to the east), and Kerwan to the south-east (see here for some details, but here for a proper description of Romanda's location).
If you care, look at the War of the Lions map of Ivalice on this link: Romanda is to the north-west of Gallione and Fovaham across that short body of water. If you look at the map immediately above that, Ordalia is the land toward the top-right.
Recently, a large scale... eh, "war" except not really... raged across several countries and continents, apparently sparked by the revelation that a few powerful and noted bloodlines were false lines - pretenders to their thrones. This "Succession Crisis" meant a lot of death, power structures becoming shaken, and social revolution, even within the backdrop of (magi-)technological revolution.
If you want a published RPG setting, think of a combination somewhere between Forgotten Realms (drop the myriads of archmages from active duty) and Eberron (there is no spoon Cyre, or mages).
In any event, you don't really need this information, but it's here for you.
The gist is that you've a vaguely quasi-French named character (or actually French, if you care) who has ties to somewhere in the world of Ivalice and who, through <reasons> (feel free to specify), has recently acquired a lost ability to change their skill set daily, including the ability to cast magic, as desired.
(Prepared casting isn't a thing, but you can go ahead and presume it is when building a character, if you like.)
Regardless of how you make the character, in addition to name and basic stats, I'd appreciate: an alignment, an allegiance (choose a regent or concept to be loyal to - make a name up, or give a minor historical note, or something), a vague morale and/or tactics box (they don't need both, but it'd be cool to have at lest something there), and something about their personality and history (however small) to get a handle on the character. I'll need to know about their relative amounts of bravery and/or faith in the supernatural (note: this is different than the divine) - there are no wrong answers, here. Finally, I need their zodiac/horoscope sign (based on birth date).
They may or may not be making an appearance as an NPC later in a game I may or may not ever run*! Ally? Enemy? Never-see-light-of-game? Who knows*!
Other than that: go nuts! If it's Paizo-or-Dreamscarred-or-Alluria published: sure, go for it! Also, if it's made by Drejk or a badger (either on the blog or published, if PF-compatible (or not, if it has no bearing on the mechanics): feel free to work it in!
* I'm not being coy, here: I'm being honest.

So, just in case we're all destroyed by bad weather, I figured I should tell each of you: I love you. Yes, you. Doesn't matter - you're on my "I love that person, too!" list! XD
Also, read my profile, and follow the listed instructions, so we can game together (either again or for the first time), someday, dangit! 'Cause there ain't enough time in this go-round for all the people I want to hang out and game with! Life is pretty awesome, that way, and the hereafter will be even awesomer*!
* Totally a real word, as of now.
:D
See you somehow or another,
