User blog:Jiskran/Archive of pre-fabricated characters for new arrivals

This is simply an idea, and the mechanics are something I haven't begun to consider, but given the apparent turnover of players here, might it not be an idea, particularly perhaps when people first arrive, and haven't a clue what would make a good or even workable character, to have a "bank" of some of the best characters whose players have moved permanently to pastures new? One "established" character given to each of them could allow newcomers to look to fill one more challenging role than first-year with a reasonable hope of success, and, based on past history and use, administrators could perhaps provide "guidance" as to where this more mature character is best suited to be.

As I said, merely a hypothesis.
