Woah, you're good at this.Thanqol said:Oho-ho indeed.
Wondering if Petal is a motherly nickname or if Marena's actual name is Falling Petal of the Last Cherry Blossom On Spring's Parting Cloak or something.
All my life I've been waiting to be introduced to Exalted just so I can make names like that.Tal9922 said:Woah, you're good at this.
http://keychain.patternspider.net/archive/koc0187.html Bam.So, remind me what we know about Marena's mother so far? These infrequent updates really kill the sense of story, I regret to say, at least for people like me who don't really read the archive more than once.

She was trying to get away before her mother showed up.Aquillion said:I think it's hilarious how ominous and dark Marena's mother looked in her memories, compared to how she looks in reality. Suddenly Karen's reaction to Marena's rant about their mother makes sense.
On the other hand, Marena ran towards her, not away from her. So their relationship can't have been as bad as she implied.
If she'd go far enough to hide her real name from her Circle for 200+ strips, she wouldn't let it spill in a flashback she is narrating. And the only person who could correct her is a mute.Aasharu said:No, I think Petal is just a nickname, you're awesome naming convention notwithstanding. Given that we learned that Marena's full name is Ragara Marena on the page you linked.
Even with Exalted's crazy rules, probably not. However, a red haired dragon blooded man can have a red haired daughter, regardless of the hair color of the mother.Crasical said:I like the little heart on her belt.
. . Also, how does hair color work in Exalted? I'm not sure of the genetics, but Bright Blue haired mothers can give birth to pink/red haired daughters?
Ah, I'm probably seeing foreshadowing and plot twists where there are none.

Having emerged from a long, tedious argument about DB genetics, exalt types and aspect bias I've firmly resolved to never obey any coherent Exalted genetics system.Aasharu said:Well, that's a bit unfair. There is some genetics - it's just that it happens to be magical superhuman genetics.
I think Marena's hair color is primarily due to the fact that her father's Terrestrial blood overshadowed any of the other factors.
People did that in my Dragon Blooded game. That's why I adopted my "Screw Exalted Genetics" position >: (jokasti said:So, is someone going to start making Punnett squares and determining which genes are dominant/recessive?
