[@Vec] for Lachesis [hider] You're pretty good at making these things look aesthetic and this sheet is no exception. Cool look and design; your sheet was one of Lauder's favorites. I'm satisfied with what's said in personality, and after my initial feedback on the discord, I see you've added some allusions to her goals: there's the obvious one that she wants to attain a shard, and to that I say fair enough. It's indeed a good thing to focus an arc on early. Beyond that we just know that she's secretive and wants her ambitions and real thoughts to be ambiguous, and that she wants to engineer conflicts for her own benefit. Exactly what sort of goals besides godhood she has would determine what's to her 'benefit', and I'm trusting and hoping that you either have something (or things) in mind that you didn't put on the sheet. If not, I still urge you to think about what sort of goals or conflicts might embroil her so that you'll have things to work off of and won't be as likely to find yourself wondering what to post. This is especially important if you're concerned about your motivation to write, I think; writer's block will be a lot worse if you're just winging it with every post and don't really know what you're building towards. If I'm reading the aspect right, her powers basically are a supernatural ability to influence other people so as to engineer conflict. I like this; once or twice in the IC Yudaiel's 'imprinted' someone's mind with some sort of desire, goals, or personality trait and this seems similar to what your demigod (still thinking she's her child?) does, but on a tamer and more mild scale. Perhaps Lachesis just perfects the skill! In any case, it's also a neat contrast to Apostate (who you were worried about stepping on toes for thematically) because he's more about embellishing or encouraging desires or conflicts that are already present, not so much the mind control or manipulating people against their own interest angle that you seem to be going for. The limited foresight also makes a lot of sense for some child of Yudaiel. Anyways, this is a broad enough aspect with straightforward enough applications that I'm not [i]too[/i] worried, so long as you're confident you know what you're doing. With any "highly conceptual" sort of aspect a sort of warning is in order, and Frettzo wanted me to reiterate that there's the risk of 'running out of things to do' and indeed it might be hard to think of too many things that a strife aspect could discount -- probably mostly curses and blessings. Then again you can still do lots of things even without a discount. It's not lost upon me that you've named the demigod after one of the Fates. Interesting choice. The aesthetic and theme you've got going for the character is just as strong as for the CS itself. As far as the appearance part goes, her being a shapeshifter without any real preferred physical form makes sense given the aspect and things you're going for. No problem there, and I see you've made note at how demigods don't have some incredibly dangerous 'true form' like the full gods with shards do. That said, under the aspect section you say, "Lachesis’ can choose to emit her divine energy in the form of ‘spores’. [b]As such by merely being in the same room as Lachesis means that one has been ‘compromised’ so to say.[/b]" The bolded part is quite extreme and seems like effective mind control of mortals. While I don't have a problem with her being able to do such a thing, stating that it just passively happens to [i]anybody[/i] that so much as comes near her is essentially giving her one of those auras that the gods have in their true forms, only it seems to be a constant thing. So I'd suggest rewording it to say something more like prolonged presence near somebody or concerted effort from her is required to sow a 'seed' in someone, rather than it just being something so automatic and unstoppable. Upon getting a shard and becoming a fully realized god, such an effect would be suitable for when she's in her true form. Okay so it's overall a pretty great sheet Vec and you're of course accepted. Great work, and welcome aboard! Going back over what was said, the only real gripe I had and thing I think should be changed is the wording about the spores.[/hider]
