@Ethryndal definitely better. I love it just how it is, but as Daeus mentioned, you might cut out the first bit about her step-sister without any damage and probably with benefits.

@ethryndal Like normal, I love the voice you use.

You can probably make the point about her being heroine material shorter and cut out the part about her step-sister

@sam-kowal I can see how it must be fun to have Stan as a dragon. 😉

@Ethryndal your sneaking suspicion is absolutely correct, but otherwise this is absolutely brilliant.

Kate Flournoy replied to the topic An Interesting Concept I'm Working On in the forum Fantasy 7 years ago
@Dragongeek good point… 😛 Just try to find a power that actually fits with the story for a reason. Don’t just go for super-speed or super-strength ‘because’. Think through what would best fit.
What era/type of names are you looking for?

@0-0enyali0-0 @dekreel‘s advice is very solid. Maybe if you have a fight scene that isn’t too long you could post it here for critique.
