I'm going for a martial character, possibly leader of a unit assigned to a particular district.

Ummm... What is the unit and district like? That might be a good ground to start on, and does the district has any special meaning to the PC (like he was born/has a lover/etc there) or even his country (like it's an area where precious gems are mine, nobility's residence, country borders, ect)? Is it a unit specially train/bred for combat whose sole purpose is to seek out threats to their country/community, completely isolated from any views other then the ones he grew up with? >_> Sorry, I might ramble and toss out my thoughts. It normally helps some people in getting their brain juices flowing. XD
