I'll second that. And I've actually changed my Master (mistress?), as I think I can take the same concept I had and put it at a right angle to where I was headed with it and still have it make sense.
Yair: I'm moving our other conversation here to this thread, per your request. I'm s-blocking my PC just to keep the thread fairly clean for the time being. Some notes —
- I've added my Gild, Apple, following after the politics of Octavian's mistress.
- I've rearranged the personality traits and assigned them tempers. I've muted his authoritarian leanings and changed brave to traditionalist. I'd like him to be slightly afraid of change, but not cripplingly so — it definitely hinders him in matters of politics and whatnot, but he can be convinced that a newer way is a better way (which Daria la Gris had been working on doing).
Otherwise, he should be pretty much good to go now, save for a background, which is pending your approval of his Mistress. My basic thinking is that perhaps he has been sent to Fengheld and Teneo at the request of Daria, in order to secure more political sway for the Apple Gild, and, if Sphynx goes with being the filius of Stentorius, in order to balance out the influence of Stentorius. If you approve this, I'll finish out the background.
