I had a problem similar to this in the beginning, but being given a chance to play one-off characters (for one-shots and the like) gave me the chance to experiment and lighten up. Most of my one-shot characters ended up being parodies of their models—either playing them as a joke contrasting with their tragic backstories or giving a more tragic twist to their relatively joke-y backstories.
