Alright so here is the CS as promised, and I'll edit this into the OP as well.



Here is a sample CS, I may or may not actually play this character, but still feel free to use it as a reference point for what I generally want to see.

@Dead Cruiser Here's what I've come up with so far.

What lumps aeromancy in with the more forbidden stuff? Lack of understanding or is this some big brain Amun reference where 'air' entails way more than just air?

Either way, I was thinking either that or pyromancy. Maybe a Sekhmet aspirant.

@Scribe of Thoth Aeromancy is unsanctioned for two main reasons: it's the magical discipline used by a particular tribe of unruly savages that descend from the northern mountains every so often (the tribe themselves call their magic Hrideki), and for reasons still unknown Photepi Sorcerers can't seem to get it to work the way they can.

Pyromancy is a sure bet. As for the Sekhmet aspirations, remember that the Red Orders choose who they want, not the other way around. Maybe your character has family in the Sekhmet, or is generally positive/ambivalent in attitude toward them. Remember also that most Sorcerers are distrustful at best of the Red Orders. Sorcerers that join their number are treated with pity, as most think turning their gifts towards warfare cheapens them. Sorcerers that try to maintain their status in their Cult alongside their membership in the Red Orders are treated much more contemptuously, and are generally black sheep in the Cults.

@Dead Cruiser Pyromancer it is then. In a rough political oversimplification, are Lions generally more supportive of the Red Orders and the Eagles more supportive of the Cults given their values or do those groups have no correlation?

@Scribe of Thoth That's essentially accurate. The correlation is more due to the fact that several of the most prominent Lions are members of the Red Orders, and likewise for the Eagles and Cults.

I'll be updating this in a bit, but I just wanted to go ahead and get what I had down.

Ugh I need inspiration.

I could make any of the specialties work but my problem is a why? A long term goal.

Biomancy with Cult of the Serpent - Maybe a transhumanist, making people better with 'enhancements'
Telepath - Maybe they're trying to find someone who wronged them and reading thoughts is how to do it.
Diviner - Wants to learn to avoid harm for himself or others. Dreams of being a general, using divination to help become a tactician.
Also, using divination for research purposes, essentially make a nerd character.
Pyromancer - Maybe a jock like character, flexing his magical muscles for fame and superiority.
Telekinetic - More of a protector type character. Wants to use his power to shield others from harm, maybe tragedy befell him and he has a constant 'not strong enough' mentality.

I just need a motivation and then I can fit a character around it. Even something as insidious as getting close to the throne or the pinnacle. Would I want to make an a hole character though...?

Discussing with someone would help cement my character.

@ShwiggityShwah You can PM me if you want but you seem to have written motivations for each of these characters?
