so i was considering making an old character of mine but i'm sort of in the same boat as Hylian
because my character has a very, very heavy backstory because i've had this character (mainly in actual stories and one or 2 short rp's with friends) for nearly 8 years and i'm horrible to my story characters most of the time

but i don't want to change her

so here's my question for you guys
i have 3 options:
 rp her from after all the horrible stuff happened
 rp her from before all the horrible stuff happened
 or not at all

but i can't decide, help?
