Lilith

Description

Vanilla: "Although she is now more than 2,000 years old, Lilith still looks like a woman in her early 20s—a very athletic woman, whose vibrant beauty is if anything enhanced by a feral air that suggests she could kill you in a heartbeat. In her true form, she has dark hair streaked with white and gray owl feathers. She wears a moonsilver breastplate, bracers and greaves."

Lilith is overall a beautiful but intimidating General, blunt and in one's face. Her age is showing, she's not youthful but still attractive, especially with her aura of power. But she likes to use her looks in a more unorthodox way - she often adopts animal traits on her human frame, mainly strange and alien to the Gunstar, to add to unnerving those going against her.

Role

Main

• Lilith is a strong and powerful Lunar, one of the two recently promoted to general of the Gunstar Defense Line. She knows the promotion is more gesture than true recognition, but she gladly accepted it as the position would have never been available before. Now she sets her sights on a new position - Narikon's. He's had ample time to end this, and he hasn't - so she reckons it's someone else's turn.
• She's Roy Mustang but Narikon isn't Bradley.

Other Activities

• I imagine she has some (if not all) say over the Void Hunt, and when Narikon inducts the party into the organization Lilith smiled like a shark.

Relationships

General

• Abyssals - Well now, what are these??? (I don't know)
• Alchemicals - These guys are alright, do good work. Bit misled though, you try to change something from the ground up and you topple the whole thing. You gotta be at the top if you want to really change things, and she intends to.
• Dragon-Blooded - Do whatever they're told, for better or worse.
• Lunars - The real backbone of the Gunstar, keeping the people safe from threats in and outside of every aspect of it.
• Sidereals - Fucking toadies.
• Solars - Move over, I'm taking the wheel.
• Titanics - Pests, but not threats, as has been proven time and time again.

Specific

• Chejop Kejak - The fattest toady of the bunch, who buys into the idea of 'sunk cost' so much that he cripples any innovation within the Gunstar.
• Leviathan - Doesn't really concern her, but doesn't seem to be a bad guy. But he is competition, and she'll take him down any way necessary if she must.
• Narikon - He's going down. She's not one to rush it, of course. But she is pulling all the favors she can to make it clear she's the best candidate to take over should he go down, and she's not being subtle about it at all.
• Her mate - I imagine someone (Swan? Or someone else?) has the Solar shard she's bonded to, but she doesn't give a damn if it's in the Gunstar, she's got her whole career here. HOWEVER, with Abyssals and Infernals coming up after the first arc and establishing her, it COULD be interesting to have her sense the shard and have a part of her go 'What do I do' while for the most part she maintains a cover of 'What I normally do.' That said, I think Lilith can live without this problem at all in the Gunstar, it might be a nice change of pace.
• The Party - Well now, this is interesting. Show me what you can do, kiddos. Make momma proud.

Sheet

NOTE: Oh hey, another one of these. This is her Scroll of Exalts write-up, NOT her Dreams of the First Age one. They might be worth comparing some to check the differences (I noticed a different Virtue Flaw for instance) at some point, but I think she's one of the few we'll be pulling more from the Second Age for.

Tell: Feathers in her hair. (I'm thinking something more intimidating, it could be the end of her sentences echo like an eagle's cry or something cooler like that?)
