In Divinity3, I hope the main character isn't the Dragon knight I was playing in D2. Why ?

First, he/she has powers, and I don't wan't to start over with the same character (I ended up powerfull enough to wipe armies, how many ennemies up to my level left ?).
Second, I played D2 in 3D, going back to 2D with the same character would be going backwards in my opinion.
