I agree with this what you are saying, I would say a loose cannon character is very useful when the party gets caught planning for too long or being too cautious to do anything, it does help push the story forward and show that some chaos can help push things forward more than going too gently and makes it so the DM doesn't have to cut off scenes for characters to progress.

Rule number one: your character should have reason to stay with the party and the party should have at least a reason to keep them around. As long as this true - your character can be literally anything. Psycho, dog, PTSDd soldier, clown, eldritch horror - anything can work, but the first step you should make - is listed above. If your party have a lot of problems, because you are chaotic - they should have something to think you are useful enough, to balance this out.

My last loose cannon character was once a real stand-up guy as well as a doctor. And what drove them to their chaotic tendencies was when a plague struck the city he lived in. He would tirelessly toil away at trying to find a cure, constantly getting roadblocked by the city council (none of them were scientists, so they were usually very skeptical of his sciences). As the mass graves filled, only around 15% of the city's population ended survived, eventually abandoning the city. The council were among the last to get infected, begging their physician to save them. Rumors say the physician hurled themself out a window, that there was no reason to suspect them of any malpractice, only shame in their failure. Others believe the physician had a hand in their exposures. So up-front he would be a generally really helpful dude who wanted to help people. But there were some phrases the party learned to avoid saying: "We need more time before we decide on anything" "I'll come up with a better plan" And "This is a very complicated situation" Were some of the trigger words that would really cause them to go full loose cannon mode (since they would hear it a lot from the old council)

I have a character who's a lot like this. They're usually really nice, almost like the mom friend of the group, but there's one button you should NEVER push: choice. The biggest part of their moral compass is the idea that, if someone wants to do something, then as long as that doesn't prevent the free choice of others, it should be allowed. It doesn't matter how good or bad for that person it is, if it's their choice, it's their choice. Basically, it may be a terrible decision, but it's my decision to make. No one gets to override someone else's choice unless it will infringe on the choices of others, and they're insistent on this to the point of pvp if it comes to that.

I always recommend teaming up with another player with these characters by having their character have a history with yours. Whether it's in intertwined backstory, or they just met a month ago, the character having someone who at least vaguely understands them and can introduce them to the rest of the party can be a huge help, especially if they know how to keep said character in check, if even a little.

The thing I really appreciate about your videos is the consistent attention to the 'Above Table'. Hey, it's a collaborative game, so not only do your characters have to work together but also you as players can and should! I think so often fear of metagaming or 'breaking the fourth wall' can actually get us all holed up in the silos of our characters and lose sight that we actually all together have to take care of whether the story is satisfying and where it's going. I love this example of firstly letting everyone at the table know 'hey, I'm wanting to play this archetype', trying to get them on board and involved, and then flagging that you actually don't want the character to derail the story, but work out together how to weave them in constructively. Good stuff. 👍

Thank you for making this video, this was a big help. In one of the campaigns I am in I am playing a character who has two personalities. One personality is Ovak Evenswood, the artificer. She is the main personality. She is cool, calm and collected. She helps in combat but in more a support role. I would describe her as Lawful Neutral. The other personality is Evok Evanswood. She loves the fight. She will intentionally take up a tank role in combat. Now the other players know if it's a situation where she can come out to keep her away from it, they do. They also know she can do some major damage, so depending on the situation, having that side of her come out can actually be helpful. I have also talked to my DM about this and not sure he will use it or not, but this personality came about from a childhood trauma. She is half-orc. Half races seem to get treated not as good as full races. Which could be a source of the trauma. Any way, found this video very informative. Everyone at the table knows what I am going for and are okay with it.

One thing I did once to play a Loose Cannon character without disrupting everything was to make a character with double personality caused by his powers. He was usually a very refined diplomat, but whenever he abused his powers or got a little bit nervous he would basically become a Joker of sorts. When the story needed more conflict, he would switch to "freaking insanity mode," but whenever things needed to run smoothly, so long as we hadn't just finished a fight a minute ago, he was genuinely the face of the party and would apologize for any trouble he may have caused. In any case, he blew himself up with a nuke at the end of the game to save the whole group from an unbeatable final boss, so that was cool.

One of my players in an upcoming game is playing a mute character. 1. He’s using the spell caster sidekick stats bc he wants to be more support to other players than anything, so his character would have less reason to speak up anyways. 2. As a spell caster, I’ve worked on an arcane sign language that essentially allows any verbal spell components to be treated as somatic.

Not being able to hear is a liability - being able to act as a group silently is an adtantage. Does the arcane sign language include a faint glow of the casting hands? That at least partially offsets the advantage of casting verbal spells silently from the dark to achieve suprise.

Treating verbal as somatic (as opposed to it just dropping the verbal requirement) was in part to balance, but i realize more in-depth work needs to be done on the language to flesh it out.

Thank you so much! I'm going to play my first CE character ever, who used to be a paladin in our previous game, and is going to be anti-paladin in our new game. She is full on corrupt by the demons and does not trust gods, hierarchy and society one bit anymore. Paladins had killed her family (for being friends with demons) when she was a baby and raised her as a paladin without letting her know her legacy, and when demons started calling out to her, she got extremely confused and got on the bad side of her goddess, which triggered her excommunication. Thing is, I kinda see her being a lot similar to Jinx in many ways and I'm working on trying to make her personality believable to the group (her biography was a secret to everybody except the DM), and most of her corruption happened between games, so my friends are going to be surprised greatly on our first game of the new campaign. I can't wait to try this all out, and am extremely grateful for your advice!

Playing a character currently who is based off a loxodon (bite attack instead of a trunk, so effectively a shark man). He's also a redcap chef. He will go into physical withdrawals if he doesn't kill things to wet his cap. He will absolutely hold off, but he just continues to get more physically ill the longer he waits and he will start to talk a little crazy, spoiling for a fight. The chaotic part is that he's been trying to learn how to cook with magic (magic food) and it can have wild (and sometimes explosive) results as he's not actually smart enough to fully understand what he's doing. He's just determined to do so by trial and error. Group is a bit leery of when he starts to get "creative", as his failures are never standard. It either works, works too well, or fails spectacularly. There is no in between :P

My fire genasi charlatan bard/wizard, Roast, was a bit of a loose cannon in some ways or at least that's how she's perceived, she's the first to open the chest, she'd steal things to sell them later, she was definitely very greed motivated and was impulsive and quick to attack things. She was chaotic but she wasn't really, she was analytical, she assessed risks and made decisions quickly based on that which some would see as "lol so random" but no she was just conscious of risk and only did what she thought she could get away with though I must say it took her a little while to learn to viscously mock the chests from a distance before opening them (the Dm was a big fan of mimics) I describe her as analytically impulsive The same campaign had another player who played two loose cannon characters first being an aracockra ranger who while Roast was selling some wares decided to set the hospital on fire for no reason other than because he could, he ended up wanted with a large bounty so Roast (after an intelligence check to estimate the bail cost) turned him in and collected the money she then sent Clam (our water genasi druid/moral compass) to pay the bail fee and Roast then split the profit (not quite evenly) between the three of us, Clam got 1/3 which was 890gp, The ranger got 700gp and Roast got 1180gp the ranger failed the insight vs deception check to realise they got scammed, the player got overly huffy considering 700gp was more gold than we'd seen at once all campaign and the next session he came in with a new bard character who turned out to be even worse just trying to shoot everyone and everything and acting like he was the coolest person in the world and still played the character the same way he did the ranger which was what made it worse because the character was just unlikeable and the fighter we gained the same session had to stop him trying to kill npcs multiple times the character also tried to steal the probably cursed/evil sword that had just bonded to Roast at the end of the campaign so she stabbed him with it (I did state very clearly out of character that Roast wouldn't hesitate to stab him if he tried to take the sword to which he replied "wanna bet" and did it anyway. Needless to say the DM let me make the attack roll which crit my dice clearly enjoy being spiteful)

I play my loose Cannon (the character I mentioned in the latest "evil characters" video) I remind me of my time, when I had problems of that kind and turn that up to 11. For me it is this trickling flow of stress, bottled up in the subconcious. Always ready to blow up, but somehow contained in daily life. Until... a trigger happens. For my character it is seeing old enemies or having friends and family endangered. One of these triggers alone and BOOM! Out is the psychotic maniac, who turns a human beeing into a living pin cushion at the blink of an eye just for talking about doing evil things to a friend. Out of stressful situations she is more the cold reserved type of maniac... the mostly uncaring type with a heart of gold for her few chosen people. And then, when she is happy? She is cheerful, chatty, is good friend to everybody. But it is this unpredicability that makes her... kinda crazy.

I was thinking for my next character that I would make him a veteran from a war before the campaign started where he barely survived a fireball to his right side of his body as a ground trooper. He was forced to amputate his right arm after he was escorted off of the battlefield. He has since turned to drinking to counteract the ptsd of war and especially fire of any kind, like torch fire, campfires, etc. He doesn’t quit mercenary work because it is all he’s ever known. When the party picks him up at the tavern or something like that, he acts reserved and collected, but at the sight of fire he goes crazy. What do you guys think? Is there anything I could tweak about this character?

I'm actually doing this character archetype in the Warhammer Age of Sigmar Soulbound Campaign the group I'm part of is doing basically she is a Witch Aelf which means she is of the brutal anti-heroine Dark Aelf faction the Daughters of Khaine and like all Witch Aelves her psyche is split into two personalities a aloof, flirtatious personality when not in combat and when in combat against enemies she changes personalities to a child-like psychopath who views combat encounters as a killer party she's throwing in Khaine's honor with the killer part being literal, and enemies as "party guests that have been invited" and PS. Khaine the deity my character worships according to the Warhammer Age of Sigmar lore is the Aelven God of Blood, War, and Murder basically the very brutal anti-hero counterpart to the Chaos God Khorne and my character views battles and the enemies she kills in brutal, sadistic, at times squirm-inducing fashion as throwing killer parties/religious celebrations held in Khaine's name.

The other players would find themselves sometimes triggering him on purpose when they had to, otherwise they really just wanted to cure him.

Taking Jinx as a reference, I think that a very interesting way to play this kind of insane/mentally unstable character would be to have the player role a wisdom saving throw every time the character is in a situation that triggers their trauma (like Caleb in campaign 2 of Critical Role) and if they fail the saving throw, the character would lose control and act in a completely reckless and chaotic way, potentially causing trouble to the party; this way it wouldn't really be the player's fault so the other players would be less likely to get mad at you because of that, it could even be something everyone is invested on bc there's a reason behind that behavior that people could really empathize with, it would make sense for the character and add a lot of depth to them, and in a long-term campaign it could even go into a recovery storyline, which I believe would be pretty interesting to explore. (I'd also like to say though, I'm aware that mental illness is a pretty delicate topic, and it's not something I have personal experience with, so if this idea is insensitive or harmful in any way, I would appreciate it if someone called me out on that.)

As someone experienced on mental health issues, I like your idea a lot. Yes, to have your character be just vulnerable to certain triggers may be more realistic in a way, but it can also be more harmful to be perceived as someone who is always gonna be affected. Sometimes we can handle things just fine, for which a saving throw can perfectly depict that experience. On the other side it´s not fun to have to be constantly careful around your chaotic companion or to be that constantly potential dissaster. For which this is good for handling group cohesion because the character it´s not always gonna be unreliable. In any case, how delicately any topic is handled relies mostly on the narrative aspect and not the mechanics. This particular case can help avoid stereotyping mental illness, but only as far as both the players and dm are willing to take it.

But he's also got a great old one influencing him toward total madness He spaces out, blabbers to himself, gets hyper focused, forgets what he's talking about and switches topics mid sentence, basically I took the real traits and amplified them bc of the old ones influence, and his specific trauma is uncontrolled magic and fire. He loves magic and he loves fire, but the second either gets out of hand he panics. How severe that panic is and wether or not the actions taken as a result are reasonable ways to solve the out of control magic/fire is usually a private personal roll I make myself like your wisdom save example. I also have him on a course for 2 different character arcs based on further compounding life factors that add onto his trauma or bring stability to his life, where if either counter of 'points of trauma/stability' exceeds the other by a certain amount he will have a major development moment, going from chaotic neutral to true neutral as he stabilizes and learns to deal with his trauma healthily or to chaotic evil as he descends into madness fully and sets out for revenge against those he sees as associated with his trauma. This whole thing has been talked out with the DM, to the point where his actual innate magic will shift with his alignment, replacing all his levels in wild magic sorcerer with clockwork soul if he finds stability and order or with abberant mind if the old ones influence compounding his trauma sends him deeper into madness. It's a lot of fun playing a character that's sitting in such a delicate balance :)

At the end of the day literally everything is the player's fault, they are singularly in charge of their character. If this triggering becomes an issue for the other players because it happens so frequently that it's becoming annoying or a huge issue, then stop or tone it down.

One downside to using a saving throw for this type of thing is that you don't get nearly as much control over the timing of "loose canon" incidents. I've tried that before with a character with deep-seated trauma and it actually straight up ended a campaign and made everyone at the table frustrated. Granted, it was with newish players and a new DM and we handled it poorly...but still. As the video mentioned, knowing when acting out of turn can move the story forward or make it more exciting by upping the stakes can be fun and interesting. Having a breakdown and attacking the party in a situation where it only delays the inevitable and grinds the story to a halt is just bad and fun for nobody. It might be fun for the loose canon, and maybe the DM, but that wore off for me pretty quick when I realized how miserable it made everyone. I think for a saving throw for emotional triggers to work, it has be consistent and clear to everyone at the table. They need to know that the issue is a trigger beforehand so they can be ready for it, then need to see the Saving throw happen publicly and know the outcome. And even then I think the player and DM should both have the power to say "It definitely Does/doesnt happen here, no save necessary." Some moments are so dramatically appropriate that it would be a letdown if the loose canon DIDN'T fly off the handle. Sometimes it will literally only derail the campaign. I would only trust the dice with the moments in between. I'm also fortunate that I can trust the players at my current tables with this stuff though.

Great video for the experienced player who wants to try out this personality archetype, but there are a few big things I feel you missed here- 1) Some people who tend to want to play this character tend to not care what the other players think/feel and use "It's what my character would do" as an excuse to be disruptive. 3) This is often played for laughs, without any proper consideration of the mental health of the character or RL people like them, and comes off as insensitive at best, offensive at worst. Props to your wife for playing it well, but I do think this is a really big minefield unless you are playing a character like this in a group where everyone is already comfortable with each other.

My loose cannon character has access to exploding things with warlock shooty eldritch gun cantrips, and always offers to blow up a problem even when it's mundane. He backs down when someone has a more subtle idea. His excuse is that the place he's from was a nondescript chaos dimension (high fantasy campaign with a bit of comedic homebrew) he's kinda nuts.

The entire plot of Seven Samurai was to stop thieves, often with deadly force. This is one of the greatest martial films in history, and I am certain that it is similar in plot to many D&D adventures. The law enforced by the samurai was brutal but effective. As part of role play, I want to have the right to kill, injure or kick out someone who is insane in my party in a way that obviously harms the party or its mission. There is a reason that military officers in the First World War carried sidearms and used them to execute field courts-martial. There is a reason that thieves had their hands cut off. Speaking from experience, having a party member that steals from the rest of the team during their night watch is really disruptive to the table, even if is 'in character'. if it is OK to be chaotic, it is also OK to be lawful. The DM may need to establish what the law says - when does the law have a modern sensibility and when does the law have a medieval sensibility? Is capital punishment acceptable? We have parties that exist largely as kill teams - basically elite military units. Murder Hobos should be driven out of town. Party disrupters should be kicked out - with the players understanding what the line is that can get a character kicked out of the party. The limits of chaos within the party need to be part of cession zero - and they need to be enforced by the party.

It’s become a running joke how much he loses consciousness, whether it be because of a plot point, dropping to zero, or getting himself in over his head and the stress causes his body to just quit on him. He’s too old for this lol. Seriously though, this is very helpful. There’s lots I can work with this in terms of the character.

My advice would be to set clear goals and desires for that character and make sure even if they are doing chaotic things it is always because that character thinks it will accomplish that goal. (even if it might not) Like jinx in first 3 episodes of arcane, her goal was to help her family and even though it didn't work out. She still acted for that goal.

I play a character who has been brain washed since he was 4 old to a age off 25. (Not DnD another game rule for more open world building) The setting is a post apocalypse while some of the survivors gain superpowers/mutation. These powers have a range from absolute bad to pretty nice an in really rare situation (1:250'000) God like powers. Because his strong ability (Mid A Tier) my character was brainwashed to be peaceful, by a local warlord) This means many of his memory’s was change but a lot of his memories are complete artificially, include his hole education. (For Balancing reasons/ He has almost no knowledge and his social behavior is a little disrupted) After some events he snaped out of his manipulation and was forced to join the rest of army and join a special force who should prepare some location for a war to restore the lost democratic. Now whenever his live isn’t in danger he tries to find out how he really is and what a person he wants to be and what morals he will have. Of course, this causes many stupid situations. Maybe you can also cover How to play Characters with Amnesia.

You just need to play it for comedy a bit. Instead of suddenly pulling out a blowtorch during negotiations and setting random things on fire do this. "Were going to important negotiations. Great hold on while I make sure my blowtorch is full." "Why?" "Because I can't set things on fire if it's empty silly." Scene starts with your character tied to a chair occasionally making flame noises.

I think Rick and Morty has a fun motivation for being a "Loose cannon". The time crystal that shows Morty's future, your character could act "randomly", being a Time Wizard who is trying to follow the path towards something (eg: Resurrecting a loved one) So them constantly fidgeting is them checking the "area" for better paths (time wise). Naturally they are chaotic in nature as they've dedicated their life to going againsy social expectatiom to reach their goal. Some RP opportunities could be the player ignoring the future to help a party member in trouble instead etc. If that makes sense? XD

I usually play a driven character, sometimes good, sometimes neutral but always someone that is very determined in their own goals and in league with the rest of the team. My group usually plays a VERY wide spectrum of angsty, silent, cardboard, crazy, backward, one note, or otherwise singular characters. A lot of them are a lot of fun, but a lot of the time it's hard to enjoy the game when no one is on the same page, ever, in spite of best efforts. I'm tired of playing the 'serious' character that's used to keep things on track. I want to make a loose cannon character to disconnect myself a bit more and try and enjoy the game more but It's not really what I'm used to or even like.I don't know how. I'm worried this is going to be a disaster, but this is the ONLY thing my friends do together, we don't do anything else, so If I stop playing, I stop having friends. Should I just go for it and play a loose cannon using your advice, or do I need to cut my losses?

Cripes! I wish I had these tips about a year ago! ^^;; Played a -very- intelligent Artificer-type with intense familial issues. Due to her high IQ, she was frequently able to exploit players and NPCs in such a way as to serve her spoiled, rich-kid origins. Although I crafted her backstory to be interesting, a fluke encounter caused it to spring up pretty early on in the campaign and make her Chaotic Neutral tendencies to just get worse. Only one character in the party knew how to handle her, while the 'face' enjoyed antagonizing her. We wound up completing a mission wherein she made a ploy to stow the loot in her private vault and hold the whole party hostage, resulting in a John Wick scenario of several 'friendly' guns pointed at her head while she calmly drank a cup of tea. Still don't know how we lived through that. X3

1. Don't worry about insulting people about mental illness in games. It's a game. Unless the person is really trying to be hurtful, it's ok to play a character as a stereotype of a mental illness, or some variant of it. Because it isn't reality. 2. The problem with playing a Loose Cannon is simple. Do they have the same motivation as the group. Because, at it's core, a Loose Cannon is someone who has the drive to do what they deem as necessary at the time regardless of what anyone else thinks. So, if that character's goals are at odds with the Party's goals, that's where problems will arise. Jinx works because, as disruptive as she is, she also is 100% loyal to Silco. No one else, just Silco. If you don't have that anchor, then a true Loose Cannon character has a higher chance to become an Antagonist than an Ally.

So, I've got ptsd, and I'm not gonna watch this whole video because I'm upset right now, but I'd like to toss my two cents in. I don't have the kind of intense hallucinations a lot of folks have, like Jinx, and I'm usually able to rein in my responses while triggered from a whole lot of therapy, practice, and from a response a lot of folks have going the opposite way from Jinx, which is the complete shutdown of emotions. That's unpleasant in and of itself, but it tends to be less disruptive to the people around me. When I get triggered, I respond with techniques learned in therapy to ground me and bring me out of my panic or dissociation. Having your character do this can be good representation, because you might not know who at your table has struggled with things like this. Now, if you're table's down for it, you could your character go into fugue states, or emotionally volatile ones, but importantly, this is a thing that happens when someone is triggered, whether or not it makes a whole lot of sense. Like, my mom once said the word, "Promenade," and I had a flashback. It was a song I listened to with a person who hurt me. Doesn't always make sense to you, or to an observer. Another thing that can be less offensive representation if you're going for a more lowkey mentally ill person is paranoia, which is a very common response to trauma and symptom of mental illness. It doesn't usually manifest as someone taking a swing at whoever they feel threatened by, but often does manifest with constant mistrust, vigilance, and fear. A paranoid person like myself will often keep people at a distance because we feel it's impossible to trust anyone. Plus with DnD, players tend to feel a bit paranoid anyhow lmao. I end up playing a lotta characters with trauma similar to mine for a couple reasons. One, because I don't have to try to get into the headspace of a mentally healthy person, so I can enjoy my DnD easier. Two, because I can look at this character as an outside observer and better understand and come to terms with my own bullshit. Above all, run potentially problematic character ideas by the whole table before you bring them in for their first session. I even do this for characters that are simply flirtatious, in case that's going to ruin anyone's game. You don't want to bring in a character that has screaming flashbacks to warfare, and then find out someone at your table has dealt with that in the middle of a session, when they get up and leave.

My loose cannon was just a very dumb orc (im talking 5 for Int) so any action he chose was spur of the moment and not well thought out, but he had like 17 wisdom so he knew when to do certain actions. So I as a player would just Immediately gravitate to the first or second thing the DM stated and Generally throw caution to the wind because of two things, Why would my character think about what he was doing, and He was beefy enough to tank most hits he got and just heal up later. It essentially eliminated the party's "what if door trap" issue entirely

Hey, just wanted to give a heads-up because it's clear you want to be sensitive around discussions of mental health, "psychotic" isn't a general term like crazy or insane but an actual medical term used to refer to people who experience psychosis, and using it as a non-specific description of anti-social behaviour can stigmatize disorders real people suffer from. Big fan of the videos, and don't sweat it too much, it was clearly an innocent mistake.

My favorite DnD character who I love bringing back a lot could be considered a lose cannon, not because he's crazy, not really a mental illness, but he saw things much more differently than everyone else, so closer to autistic I guess now I'm typing this out. Which sometimes is great, and other times (or sadly in my case mostly) causes the conflict. Which is my favorite character to play: One that has a equal chance to create or solve a problem, chaotic personality or not. So let's say there's a hostage situation where if the group doesn't meet the demands of the bandit leader he'll kill the family. There are more than a million reasonable solutions to this that would make sense, But this guy will think "If we burn the camp down and make it look like an accident they'll be forced to leave then we can knock them out and throw them back into the fire, problem solved." and go through with it whether if its approved or not because he thinks that's the best idea. Logic is there, just not in a conventional sense. Or if the group needs to defeat a bunch of pirates he'll think just to steal the captain's hat because that must mean that'll make him the captain. Though his chaos is more memorable, like the time he started a war between the dwarfs and the humans because he was being chased after a bunch of town guards because he tried to ask a girl where he was and got mistaken for a monster. And was the most tame thing he's done because it wasn't actually his fault that time.

I'm currently playing an 18 year old orcish mage/sorcerer in the SOTDL system, so he's basically an angry magical battery that explodes randomly. He's very much a loose cannon in combat, but very predictable in social situations because all he's known his entire life so far as an ex whaler and pirate is that force is what gets you what you want. He rarely speaks unless it's to ask clarifying questions or to press anyone outside of the group to do what he wants. This goes as far as him focusing on his goals so much to pierce all pretenses of pleasant conversation, even pressing freshly traumatized people to tell him things that he believes to be related to whatever they're doing at the time even if there's absolutely no connection. He's a loose cannon but he's loyal to his mercenary clan and loyal to the dark faith's unbending nature to push oneself to one's Wyrd, their destiny where they earn their place in the halls of the dead to eventually be called upon to lay siege to the forces of Hell, protecting the world through power and force rather than diplomacy. Of course though, he does have a soft spot for animals, and lacks any understanding of how different fae creatures are different and whenever the fae are brought up, he spends more time being called a bigot for not understanding how a changeling, an elf, and a goblin are very much different and why. He's not very smart, but if you try to press him on his knowledge of what he actually knows, it'll be difficult to beat him in a battle of wits related to it. He knows the history of the orcs and dwarves being pitted in a war because of the empire, but if you ask him about say, the Old Faith, he will have very sparse knowledge even though most people know a good amount about the Old Faith seeing as how it's one of the 3 dominant religions in the world.

You don't have to be a Loose Cannon to be a Loose Cannon. Jynx and Tokyo aren't really great, but a swashbuckler doing something really inconsequential to set thing in motion, the barbarian doing something dumb, the greed from the wizard or the misguided Cleric are events that great players embrace to get the party out of some bad situations, its always a good idea to break character and ask the table if they want to solve that situation or it they are okay with a really bad decision to see where it leads. You don't have to discuss everything and say out loud what are you planning, but its good to give a heads-up before tossing pasta into the wall. Sometimes it is something you'd do in the heat of the moment and usually is just an annoyance for the party and some people wouldn't be happy with how the situation was handled, but its good to keep people more invested and be more active to get their voices heard the next time they want thigs to go their way. But the best moments are planned and have their foundations laid in anticipation, you can be the a-hole that steals the hand of Vecna and become a legend, you can read your DM's plan to how he is planning to end your campaign with a TPK and betrayals and search for certain items and individuals without anyone knowing what are doing but unraveling everything in the final cinematic to save the party connecting the dots of every scroll, item and pact you made and see if the DM is willing to ignore months of prep to end it in the intended way or aknowloge that he didn't saw it and it wouldn't matter for the grand scheme of things and could be great to embrace it. Loosen Cannons aren't just to bring chaos against your party, but it might be used as a counter spell; You may use it to burn spell slots to save some health, and you may save spell slots for spells that you know are comming, you don't know when or even if it will happen, but you know that you'll need to save that slot just for the counter spell.... Or for a wish, but have to walk the bitter path anyway. That's why its important to have flaws and to know when to use them. That greed might make you full psycho and Lerroy Jenkins your way, but could just be enough motivation for you to persuade your party to work with you towards that goal, being transparent or deceiving, a gentle push could be all you need to get things spicier.

A good Loose cannon cares about the party and the party knows this and shares that feeling as well. But the part you also missed was the loose cannon should NOT be the most powerful person in the group. The fact that they initiate things is what makes them more powerful so if you optimize your character and you can do more then anyone else - don’t be a loose cannon.
