Message: <blockquote data-quote="MoonSong" data-source="post: 6337259" data-attributes="member: 6689464">You are confusing perfect with just extraordinary, we are talking the kid that has been stuck with the genius label and now is in deep pressure to never fail, and in this case failure isn't the normal failure, it is failure to hold into parental pressure to never get anything below straight A, just except in this case it is pressure to be always an infallible paragon of virtue, and instead of just your parents it is the whole society just by seeing you. Oh and unlike the tiefling that can prove herself by just being good and doing the right thing and get approval and acceptance by going beyond the low expectations of society you are stuck between a rock and a hard place, no matter how hard you do, any good you do is taken for granted and the slightest wrong you do is grounds for you to be rejected and hated. Also true friends? hard task, everybody coming at you only wants something from you, and you barely have time fulfilling everybody's expectations to allow you some time to yourself. Do you dare to show your own mortality and human weakness? the slightest deviation from moral perfection will make everybody distrustful of you. This is a meaningful conflict, despite you being angel blooded and having a great destiny to fulfill, you are still human, fallible imperfect with the same cravings and needs everybody else has, but you are not allowed to show them.  How is that not a hook? It is a very honest and relatable hook. Also since when do you need a hook to play a character of a certain race? you don't play a race, you play a character, an individual, not a living stereotype.</blockquote>
