The idea came to me one day: hey, how can you have someone to whom all this crap happens and NOT have them break down? I would think having to go through hell like that, from Candlkeep onward, would really mess with anyones mind, even if they were the child of a god. Enter Jade.

No, you wouldn't. In the game I have her as CN, but like you said it really doesn't fit her all that well. Then again, I also gave her GM in daggers, and she's a thief. Eh, I role-play too much.

LOL, yeah. I was trying to think of a group that would fit around her... Yoshimo, Cernd, and Haer'Dalis came to mind, though I'm not sure why exactly. I will say that Yoshi's in it now, and he's gonna be staying whether he likes it or not.
Oh, and after what has happened, you are right, Jon and Bodhi should be afraid. Very, very afraid.

Thank you. I didn't think I had shown her as demented as I had hoped, but I guess it came off better than I thought, or even intended. Now if only I can keep that going through the next bunch of stories...

Hehe, silly paladin. Tell him not to worry, Jade doesn't bother with that type. There are two kinds of people in her twisted world: those who are directly related to your fate, and those who don't matter in the slightest. Lucky for him, Jaycen belongs in the latter category.
