Fan Casting Surprisingly Normal Backstory

Role added by user_53973 on August 17, 2022

Description of Surprisingly Normal Backstory:

In a crowd filled with people who turned tragedy into triumph, went through some exceptional event, or have some abnormal linage, this person is normal. Completely normal. They weren't a go-getter as a child, they just went to school and took everything in stride. They don't have a past full of tragedies because they and their folks were smart enough to make sure it never happened. The most you'll get is that they had a loving family with maybe a couple of siblings and relatives and a cool pet. Members of the cast will be surprised to hear, in a world where something extra-ordinary happened to them in the past, only the ordinary happened to this character.
