Lorelei Has A Plan.
She puts it in all capitals, because that's the sort
of angel that she is. And she is very,
very happy to be an angel, rather than the pathetic Free Lilim that she had
been, before Gabriel found her. No
drive, no Spark, no self-worth: Lorelei was as bland as a Lilim could possibly
be, and perhaps even a little bit more than that. Worse, she knew it. She's thankful for it, now - it keeps her
cover - but the Lilim took Redemption when offered more because any
transformation was a good one. This is
often considered not a good mindset to have, but then again, she did survive. The process made her both driven and
possessed of a certain dry humor, but this was hardly upsetting to her. Even if it had been, transfiguration beats
death any day of the weak.
The difficulty is what happened after Lorelei was transfigured.
Soldekai recognized that the new angel needed something reasonably
simple and straightforward to start with, and arranged a Role for her as a
member of the idle rich. As "Laura
Meadows" she is expected to keep one eye out for promising new artistic
talent, and the other for the Servitors of the Media who might prey on them. And, of course, acquiring a Geas or six along
the way would be useful for Heaven; Ms. Meadows typically meets all sorts of
unpleasant people that the Host would like a bit more control over, and the
Bright does work for an
Truth be told, Lorelei has no objections to her
work, what there is of it. It is,
unfortunately, not enough work to keep her from starting to develop boredom -
and giving her more official work is complicated by her unique
circumstances. As it stands, activating
Lorelei's Geases requires a little forethought by Soldekai; he has no desire to
blow the Lilim's cover by having her too-freely order her acquaintances
around. At the same time, her Role is
too public to let her disappear on a regular basis. This means that the Bright is kept from
actively being assigned to Cruelty projects, which makes Lorelei a little
hyperactive. She's about ready to put on
a mask and go beat up on muggers and petty thieves to relax... which is a Plan
that she herself finds vaguely silly and melodramatic.
Interestingly, when she finally breaks down and does
it anyway, Lorelei's going to discover two things: one, she might have actually
some small talent at masked vigilantism.
Two, the activities associated with that are apparently covered by her
Role...
Lorelei is a
balanced starting character.
