[QUOTE="Tokiwong, post: 3041708, member: 961"] That looks good Shavuri, I will check the math later, but it looks good at first glance and being an Apostate will mean that she will be at the center of a fierce bidding war for her to join one of the Pentacle Orders... Think up a mentor, or I can come up with one if you like; and also definitely a Shadow name :) [i]And in case these were missed...[/i] Some questions for your character to answer… they can be answered in-character or out-of-character; but they should apply to how the character feels about being awakened. [b]You don’t know the truth yet…[/b] Your character is a young mage, the Mysteries are new, the truth of the universe, indeed reality is just making itself known to you. And already you know that some truths are being hidden from you, either purposefully or perhaps because you are not ready to understand the greater secrets just quite yet. Awakened society is all about secrets, and you know that even your Master is hiding things, perhaps for your own good, perhaps to secure their own power… but how does your character feel about this, or do they even care? [b]I have the Power…[/b] Sleepers are ignorant, they believe that the world they live in is the way things should be. They can’t fathom a supernal world, a world where reality can bend to the will of an individual. The awakened have incredible power at their fingertips, how does this affect how you see sleepers, how you view reality, and how you view yourself. You can force your will on the world at will, but as the saying goes power corrupts… Will it corrupt you? [b]This reality is a cage… a prison for your soul.[/b] The Exarchs, if you even believe they exist hold all the keys to reality. Their minions the Seers of the Throne do exist, and they are the enemy of the Pentacle, they are rarely obvious but they lurk just the same. They are omnipresent, they are dangerous, and they want to control you… or do they control you already? [b]Your Shadow Name is your identity…[/b] Your Shadow Name is important, it is the name by which you shall come to identify yourself. It is who you are now, how did you choose your name? What does it mean to you, and what does it express about you, or how you view the world… [/QUOTE]
