Do you think for SKILLS if she is mastered at 2 things it will be to much?
Haha, I don't need much sleep. I will look it all over now and then start working on my character.
Alright that sounds good to me, I just didn't want to have the same thing happen as before where one of the characters becomes to powerful. Though your solution is a good one and will make it so that doesn't happen.
Sorry for my slow replies I was up till 2 AM this morning and I am still tired. But still trying to work on my character as well.

Did you want to let them talk for a bit, or can something happen.
I just had a really cool idea where Joker came after Harley. Or do you think it should wait till a bit later?

I am actually not sure on her Character name, I might change it and just see what fit's best. I do think I will keep Aphrodite but mess with the last name.
That seems alright with me, it will have to be handled carefully though with your character having that ruin so that it doesn't become overpowered and all of a sudden she is almost a god. (Not saying it would be easy with that ruin, but I have had something like that happen before.) though if you wanted to have the mystical items I wouldn't mind having a few of them scattered about throughout the world.

WIP
Name: Aphrodite Talduin
Age: 127 (looks 24)
Gender: Female
Skills & Attributes:
Master Swordsman: Having lived for more then a hundred years, Aphrodite slowly taught herself the way of the sword. Though still not as skilled as a grandmaster, there are few that would be able to compare with her ability to a sword. Though she has lost duels she learns from each one and never loses to the same person twice.
Master Herbalist: If not practicing with a sword she was in her home developing poisons, and healing using the wilderness around her. It soothed her when something came together exactly as she planned, having made a few of her own recipes that she doesn't share the secret to anyone about, she uses her gift for good, though only if the person didn't get on her bad side.
Journeyman Explorer: Not much into traveling, Aphrodite prefers the quiet solitude of her house in the woods. Though she has been known to come out and explore when she hears something interesting or see's something that she just has to know about.
Novice Stealth: With a sword being her weapon of choice stealth doesn't come easy to Aphrodite, though when the time calls for it she can be quiet like a mouse it usually won't last long as she just tries to be in and out quickly.
Artisan Personality expert: Very good at reading people, Aphrodite uses that to her advantage in gaining information she would need for whatever the reason. Able to see thing's going on while paying attention to that person the slightest in body language or look in a person's eyes gives away how they really feel. Though she isn't always right about her hunches.
Personality:
Aphrodite is very up front, since she doesn't come out much and the few time she talks to people, she doesn't know the extent of personal space and sometimes it has gotten her into a bit of trouble that she has to find her way out of. Though secretive of her own life to new people she pries into theirs as much as possible, a charming smile and other womanly trait's usually get men talking all the time letting her know things she want's to. Woman are harder and pose a more challenge making them more interesting to her. When you pry into her hardened outer shell and see what larks beneath a fun loving, lonely woman awaits. Her loneliness is not her own doing, but without someone who cares for her life is pointless. So she searches and uses her abilities to try and find them, her shell she has put around herself makes her act seductive, though she is just the opposite more shy and withdrawn.
History:
Growing up in a forest isn't every kid's idea of a dream, far away from human's and other species. With only the company of a few elves to befriend, but for Aphrodite that was heaven. Getting to do whatever she wanted, it was a dream come true for her. Though her parent's always only had one rule, stay away from humans. Maybe that's what made her curious. She left home one day, that was when she was an adventurous woman and wanted to see the world. Traveling, danger it all excited her at that time. Though Aphrodite didn't get very far, within a week she realized how dangerous the real world was, man trying to take advantage of her. Animals trying to kill her, her parent's hadn't thought to tell her any of these things.
At the age of 25 she was already lost and alone in the woods, managing to get going because of a few books she had managed to bring about fruit and plants. Though slowly she learned, learned what animals were friendly and which you should keep a distance from. Learned what plant's were safe and which would help her for protection against dangers if made into a paste and put on the end of a knife. Everything started to come together.
Though it wasn't until the age of 60 that she had really begun to live, with a house and everything else she would need to live a happy life. She developed her skills then practicing whenever she could and making sure to not explore the outside world knowing what dangers were out there. She made a habitat for her and her alone to be at peace.
With supplies dwindling to dangerous level's though, Aphrodite realized she couldn't stay away from people forever. Going into town for the first time was an experience. Loud music played as street performers tried to earn a bit of money. With only the thing's she had created Aphrodite sold and traded to be able to get the things she need. Though she stayed in town a lot longer then she thought, bartering and having a great time. Only when she started to have a man flirting with her did she leave. It was an awkward experience having a man show interest in her, it had never happened before and she was confused.
Going into town though more often she enjoyed conversations she had and it slowly developed a skill she hadn't even known she had. Soon she was reading people and what they were planning or their feelings, intentions, sometimes she was wrong. Though it started to become a small hobby to make sure and go into town to see if she could meet someone new and try to read them. Part of herself always missed her solitude ways, the other part needed company.
Aphrodite couldn't remain a shut in like she truly wanted to, after a serious relationship she had tried ended, she buried her true self deep inside of herself. With her shut in persona not working in normal everyday life, she chose to become a different person entirely. In town she was the party girl, and dressed like she didn't care what people though. At home or when she was alone, she was shy and hid herself away not really wanting people to see her. The party persona was who she wanted to become, though the more she tried to become it, the more her loneliness grew to the point of consuming her.
History with Adley
It was a sunny day without a cloud in the sky when Aphrodite went into town, she just needed a few ingredients for a new potion she was going to try and make. Done right it should give the user invisibility for a short period of time. Though a delicious smell had caught her scent and she had bought a loaf of bread on her way to the shop.
It was on her way out she saw her, a woman just sitting on the bench and writing in a book. Aphrodite didn't know how she knew, but the woman seemed like she could use someone to talk to. Going over and flinging her hair off to the side she set down.
That was the day she meant Adley, a coincidence all on it's own is that the next day they met again when Aphrodite had been dancing in the street to some music. When Adley had appeared from nowhere and it made Aphrodite stop and they talked some more.
The next day it was the same thing, though Aphrodite learned something about Adley she hadn't been expecting. A man had come up and started to hit on her, making Aphrodite slightly uncomfortable. Though when Adley shot him down by saying she preferred woman. Aphrodite's mouth had fallen open slightly, they had been getting to know each other slowly but she never would have thought that of Adley. Aphrodite looked at her in a whole new light now, though her cheeks flamed red as the man spoke before leaving saying they looked good together as a couple.
He left before Aphrodite could respond, and the conversation resumed. Aphrodite hadn't been able to stop herself from asking a few question's at least about Adley liking woman. Before she left though Aphrodite invited Adley over for dinner the next day as she thought it was going to rain though still wanted to see her.
That night Aphrodite did something she never thought she would, she dreamed about Adley. Waking up in darkness and sweating she looked around. That was something she had never thought about before, and it was something she didn't know what to make of. The day passed by in a blur with Aphrodite being more concerned with her appearance then usual, she even put on a bit of makeup. When she opened the door, a bright smile was on her face seeing Adley, there seemed to be something different in the way she looked.
Maybe that was because everytime Aphrodite looked at her now, she remembered her dream and how they had kissed. Her cheeks became like a molten fire and she quickly hid herself. This was all to weird to her, she wasn't even that attractive. Or that's what she thought of herself. It was hard not to be her real self in Aphrodite's own house but she put on her usual town persona and they ended up having a blast that night.
Aphrodite didn't know what was going on with her, and whenever she went into town now all she heard was gossip about how her and Adley were dating. It pulled at something inside of her and she didn't know what, it couldn't be jealousy. What did she have to be jealous about? Trying to ignore people and hide every feeling towards Adley was torturous and it was eating away at her.
Though she didn't even know the feeling she felt and what it was, Adley was beautiful yes but did that mean Aphrodite was attracted to her. The more she thought the more her body was pulled in seperate directions, and if she didn't figure whatever was going on out soon. She would be ripped apart by her own feelings.

Harley stopped her stiletto heel shoe abruptly hearing the creak of the door and her head turned slightly to just look over her shoulder. She could see the movement of a plant moving back into it's original position and it wasn't long before Ivy herself was at the door. It wasn't until Ivy spoke that Harley turned around and watched the water falling off, she looked up and saw it wasn't raining. "Been messing in the water Red." she said sarcastically. Though her face soon got serious, I got rid of Mr. J, his abusive ways and tugging with my heart grew to much and so it's over."
She said and her eyes fell, she wasn't one to ever really show her true feeling's. More she kept them bottled up deep inside of her and didn't let anyone close enough to see them in their true form. Yet she could feel the bottle slowly cracking since she had left Mr. J. Whatever the case a small crack of her emotion flashed on her face long enough for Ivy to be able to see it before she was forcing it down again and hiding it. "You helped me once before Red, I was hoping you would be able to help me once again. This time..I won't be going back to him."
Her eyes flashed up to meet Ivy's and she could see the plant's moving around her already waiting to see what their master would tell them to do. She stepped back slightly and the plant's behind her moved out of the way to avoid being stepped on, "So Red, can I come in. Or are you going to sick your plant's on me." she said arching an eyebrow as she felt one of the vines moving like a snake over her foot.
The feel of it hitting her skin made her push it away, though as Ivy was standing right there she tried to do it nicely enough to just move it away from her foot and not hurt it. Usually she would and stomped on the damn thing though today wasn't really the day she wanted to get in more fight's then she was already in. "I had heard you got out of the asylum during the breakout, seems you have already taken up root's in your old place." She said looking around and starting to laugh again spinning her bat around and around in her hand.
"Nice place you got here Red, plant's seemed to have grown larger even with you locked away." she said and then saw a hand fall out of a venous fly trap, "guess they managed to feed themselves."
