I saw a post similar to this, but only dealing with OP's character, so here's mine.

The BLU Sniper in my fanfic I'm working on is one of the main antagonists, but I'm running into a mess.

First off, his name's Tristan Springfield and he hails from Perth, Western Australia. He joined the Australian Army and was sent to Afghanistan for a humanitarian mission. He ends up being kidnapped by the Taliban, brainwashed and converts to their brand of Islam. Tristan eventually gets rescued, but the damage is done.

But then I run into the problem: when he was younger, he was raised with the "White Australia" belief...which factors in because my RED Sniper is part-Aborigine.

Is this conflicting or not because I want him to be a total arrogant rat-bastard who shows no emotion when confronted by death/killing people.

Any advice welcome.

Only part that threw me was the Taliban. Considering the game takes place in 1967, it's hard to tell when some people are either putting their characters in a modern setting instead, or if they just don't know that something didn't happen in 1967.
I don't know what the case is here, but if it's modern-day, or at least takes place in a different time than the game, you might just wanna let people know ahead of time. Otherwise you might get comments like 'OMG UR a moron! Da Taliban didn't come around till the 90's, DUHHH', and so forth. Not necessarily the comments you'd get from here, but still.

yes, very big edit, I failed to mention that my timeline happens early-2000s...about the time the Afganistan/Iraq wars happened. The RED/BLU battle is still continuing, with people getting replaced after their contracts are up or they die in a non-respawning zone.

Thanks, for pointing that out, Iz. I wrote that at like 3 am
