I like everything I've read so far, and if anything bothered me slightly, it's far more convenient with my schedule today to just say "sure". :) With that in mind, I wanted to throw an idea out. Let's say that Ambrosia suggested Sharess, and the idea was quickly shelved. Due to the depth of her involvement with that goddess, I could see an alternative coming about (if the group approves) - she could split into two goddesses. One, an intermediate power, would be as described - another, a demipower, would be much like Sharess (but slightly different, of course). That would be the catlike one, and the more powerful one would be focused on freedom, creativity, inspiration, etc (does "morning" fit in with this portfolio?). It would really be her in both incarnations, but they'd function independently (and simultaneously?). > I wish I had more time to participate in the discussion.
