Demon of Revolutions:
1). Genevieve knows, at any given time, the area on the corporeal plane most likely to have a political or military revolution in the next year.
2). Genevieve can, on a Perception Roll, determine whether a particular political movement has a good chance to actually seize power. This is also available as a Servitor Attunement.
3). Revolutionaries and conspirators always react to Genevieve at +1. She can walk into any protest, secret meeting or demonstration and be accepted there.
4). By spending 3 Essence, Genevieve can bolster a person's will for one day. During that time, the mortal will be able to concentrate on following his or her secret desire for power, no matter what the cost. Note that this counts as fulfilling a Need: also note that Genevieve may not know precisely what the human plans to actually do with his power…
Rites:
: Participate in an armed uprising against the state
: Help someone distribute propaganda
: Deface or blow up a symbol of the established order
: Publish a manifesto or story that advocates armed revolt
Some people have it so easy.
Admittedly, there are times that Genevieve actually wished that she had gone along with her sister's harebrained scheme to bust out of Hell and see what the Other Side had to offer: if nothing else, she wouldn't have had to deal with those interrogations by the Game. One lasted 39 days. Hell, she betrayed her twin's intentions as soon as Columbia was out of sight: what else was she supposed to do, sit on her until the Game's forces arrived?
Luckily, Lilith kept her out of Asmodeus' clutches (for a price, but so what else is new?), and Genevieve paid back in full. While her twin was off gallivanting with her new best friends on the corporeal plane, Genevieve was stuck serving in Hell, pandering to Andrealphus' and Valefor's whims. All right, all right, it wasn't even close to the worst duty in the world to be a liaison between Freedom, Lust and Theft, and the contacts (along with the French Revolution) eventually got her a Word, but that's not the point. There's a principle involved, dammit. Columbia got to run away, and Genevieve had to pay. The system sucks.
So, of course, you change the system…
Genevieve isn't precisely a bad person (for a demon), but she's fairly ticked off with the world in general. She had to pay for everything she ever got, and she had to pay with interest because of guilt by association. Very few demons understand the inherent unfairness of the system better than Genevieve does; and, if she ever has anything to say about it, there'll be a few changes made. Right now, publicly advocating this would be insane, so she sublimates her aggravation into her Word. Her energy has had at least one side effect: the Demon of Revolutions owes nobody anything. Even her Geas to Lilith were paid off years ago. Genevieve stays with the Princess of Freedom because it's a mutually beneficial arrangement, nothing more.
Her relationship with her twin Columbia, the Angel of Revolution, is a bit more complex. At the very beginning of their careers as Word-bounds, the two clashed in almost every armed uprising on the globe, and if there wasn't an uprising scheduled, they'd go make one. It's only been recently that both have started to calm down a little: despite the hopes of both sides, it is possible to share the Word of Revolution without too much friction (at least below the Superior level). It helps that Genevieve specializes in just starting armed revolutions these days, while Columbia is becoming a dab hand at fomenting social and artistic changes. There are times where they may clash, but they've managed to keep it relatively civilized.
Well, mostly civilized. You know how siblings can be.
