Okay, Yoshi, it might be worth having another look at Lorina, because I found a few things that could probably do with a tweak. [quote=@YoshiSkittlez]Because of Lorina’s… [i]unique[/i] ties to The Dark Lord and his followers[/quote] I might be missing it, but I don't really see what her unique tie to the Death Eaters is that the other spies in the Ashes don't have. It's not really a big thing, but you shouldn't be thinking that Lorina is unique among the spies (unless I [i]have[/i] missed whatever that unique thing is :P). Also, your CS states that she is Abraxas' sister. Abraxas is the father of Lucius Malfoy, who was born in 1954, and therefore Lorina would be Lucius' aunt, despite being almost twenty years younger than him... [quote]She is a practiced [color=Silver]duelist[/color] able to stand against anyone she has ever faced[/quote] Okay, many of the problems with Lorina come with the fact that she does feel very over-powered. She is a master of transfiguration, a terrific duellist, who is an impeccable actor that always makes the right decision. It doesn't help that she doesn't seem to have any really balancing weaknesses, or that her skill level doesn't seem to match her age. For comparison, Bertha (my character) is exactly twice Lorina's age whose entire academic and actual career has been about duelling in some respect, be it competing in tournaments, being an auror, or fighting with the Order of the Phoenix and then the Ashes. It might be worth reconsidering how absolutely Lorina is a brilliant duellist, because there are many characters in this, who, just through having significantly more experience than Lorina, should be able to best her without too much difficulty. [color=Silver][b]Weaknesses[/b][/color] [quote][color=Silver]Muggle knowledge[/color] is a great hindrance to Lorina.[/quote] Really? When? All their opponents are going to be exclusively magical. Ignorance of Muggle tech and culture being a gap in her knowledge doesn't really disadvantage her. [quote]Because of Lorina’s ‘double life’ there are a lot of stresses that plague her mind, keeping her awake and restless. Because of this, Lorina oftentimes turns to [color=Silver]alcohol and drugs[/color] to help her cope with the decisions she makes on a day to day basis that she is able to express regret for when she is alone, unable to confide with anyone about the struggles she constantly faces.[/quote] On a similar token, this isn't really a weakness as such. Where the sheet says "weakness", it's kind of asking for a balancing factor that will make your character vulnerable, both generally and literally. Lorina not really having any weaknesses but feeling isolated won't manifest in the IC as a balanced character, but a sad OP one. [quote][color=Silver]Draconifors[/color] - Transforms the target into a dragon (Lorina has only done this a handful of times as it expels a [i]tremendous[/i] amount of energy and has only done it to someone else on one occasion)[/quote] The spell might be listed on HP Wiki, but it's actually from one of the HP games, which aren't very canon. It doesn't really seem like a spell that could really exist in the HP universe because, well, turning shit into dragons is... a bit dramatic, no? :P [quote]Lucius Malfoy, assassinated by another branch of the Malfoy family, Rodolphous Lestrange[/quote] By the Ashes, akshully. :P
