Comments on Lorna Smit All Comments

Anytime a character names their weapons I become absolutely delighted.  It's just one of those bits of slightly nerdy character development that always gets me excited. What was the reason she chose the names Afion and Dortia?

I just want to pinch Lorna's super-serious cheeks, and I think it's really cool how you can trace a sensible line from her background to how she became the way she is today. Of course she'd be serious and have bad social skills due to the precarious position she was in with her family growing up! And of course she'd be quiet and reserved, when she's ended up shooting her brother at a traumatically young age. There are a lot of interesting angles I could see her story going, and I'm really interested in learning more. Does gang warfare play a part in the eventual relationship between her and her sister? How did things with Marisol shake out? Who was it that taught her to shoot well - was it herself, or did she have a teacher? And what does she do within the Jackals, is she more of a fixer type person, or is she a bit more violent?

I'm really weak for characters like this. Totally my aesthetic.

Thank you so much, I'm really glad that you like her! I've tried my best to make her feel like a rounded character so it is really cool to hear that it reads well. I'm still figuring out a bunch of stuff but lots of the stuffed you mentioned I am planning. And as for Afion and Dortia, they are the names of the Vielstinn God and Goddess of Sleep and Dreams! 

AHH THAT'S INTERESTING I adore little world building details like that. And it's so fitting - what badass names for a pair of guns omg.
