[hider=Re: Arya/Laurien]
We've gone through the Portfolios in considerable detail in private correspondence, and we're happy with how they came out. Compassion is verging on being a vague emotional Portfolio, but it passes.

The detail I like the most with Arya and Laurien is the stark dichotomy between the two. This strong contrast between these two inextricably connected people will undoubtedly lead to much drama.

We've seen these two characters in action before their apotheosis. We have no doubt that they'll continue on their current character arcs and find new ways to develop.

I'll clarify for the benefit of everyone else: Arya and Laurien mechanically function as one demigoddess (with one Might pool), with the two girls effectively (but not quite literally) being Avatars of each other. Also note that Zee was owed a favour for spending MP so prolifically.

In case it wasn't clear, we approve these new demigoddesses.
