Fun question, I like it. My current set of characters currently has a direct connection to Galm, but if I were to have never chosen a Caldari I have two other characters that never really had a chance to happen.
1) Ilya 'The Reaper' Silber-- The son of an obscure nobleman in the Khanid system, raised to be another worthless pampered lord of a meaningless plot of land. Ended up forming a romantic bond with his wiping boy, leading to a series of conflicting feelings about his faith. He beings to see just how far he can push the boundaries of his religion, eventually driving him to constantly attend Sani Sabik sacraments in secret. One day he awakens from yet another ritual to find that in a drug-induced high he had murdered his wiping boy and used his blood for the ceremony. When his father discovered his crime he arranges a wedding between Ilya and a woman from another noble house, threatening to report his crime if he did not go through with the marriage. The night before the event, a coven of Blood Raiders descends upon his estate to 'liberate' Ilya by happily slaughtering everyone but Silber. Years later, Ilya is known colloquially as 'The Reaper' by mercenary contractors who frequently hire him to put down rebel uprisings... Whatever the cost.
I know, I know, seems really dark and #3edgy5me but Silber would actually rely more on his reputation as a weapon than anything else. At the end of the day he was just a teenager that got wrapped up in the wrong crowd, and ended up paying the price for it. But when an Amarr Templar shows up with a Grim Reaper on his shoulder and a shark mouth spray painted across his helmet, no ones going to ask questions.
2) Sven 'Faust' Faustus-- A sebiestor who got roped into immortal service by Minmatar propaganda videos. Overall, just a really down to earth character, if not a bit of a screw-up. A lot of my ideas for Sven's personality went into Galm, but instead of it being a sort of jaded defense mechanism Faust would have just been a genuine man-child constantly upholding unit moral.
