#heartaspect

I've been meaning to do this one forever. Gomen.

1) Using courage

The Maid of Heart would use her courage to serve and help people. Maybe everybody else is too scared to do something, so she does it instead, regardless of whether she's scared or not. This could benefit the group in massive ways, depending on what it is she's doing. This is almost entirely selfless, unless she was doing it to gain respect (but even then, she's still doing it).

2) Using soul

Serving using her heart and soul would mean that every time she had to help somebody out, she would absolutely go all out, no expenses spared. Even if she didn’t particularly like them or want to do it, she would still do it to the best of her abilities. This could be abused by others, having her do things that would benefit them personally, or she could put her heart and soul into making the session or personal goals work. Basically, she would be the most determined person ever, but probably very easy to manipulate and take advantage of.

3) Serving soul

The Maid could serve the soul, whether it be hers or somebody else's. The best thing I can come up with to explain this is through religion. For example, she may pray to save a person's soul if she believed in a God at all, or even that the soul existed. This pretty much can't be interpreted as selfish at all, and she would probably only be doing it to put another team mate's mind at rest.

The Maid of Heart is a fairly simple Title, and she wouldn't be too powerful in when she'd God Tiered. but she could help a team a lot at a personal level, which in the grand old scheme of things could be very helpful.

Recommended players: Sylph/Knight of Breath

Bad players: Witch of Mind/Heart/Hope/Rage

1) Sharing heart

The Rogue of Heart could share their own courage, soul, emotion and inspiration with others, making them a very supportive class. If someone was feeling down, they could share their happiness with them to make them feel better, or if an artist was having a block, the Rogue might lead them to somewhere that would inspire them to continue making beautiful art.

2) Sharing love

It’s possible that the Rogue of Heart would be an excellent match maker, able to set up couple they think are good together and almost always having the right hunch about who likes who.                    :33 < Purrhaps they would be pawsitively delighted by the purrospect of shipping?

3) Splintered selves

The Rogue would possibly be able to have multiple fractured selves within many different people, allowing them insight as to how they feel so that they can assist other more effectively. They could also re-create dead dreamselves for others if they lost them, although this might be a higher level ability. This ability wouldn’t work if the Rogue was trying to remake their own dreamself, however.

The Rogue of Heart would be a useful player to have if your team was either unstable, lacking drive or needed a little nudge to get people together.

Works well with: Seer of Mind, Knight of Hope, Sylph of Rage

Works poorly with: Witch and Thief of heart, Witch of Mind, Bard of Blood

1) Emotions

The Witch of Heart would be able to manipulate another’s emotions, whether using some sort of special power or just through their actions. If the Witch needed a loyal servant to do their bidding, they would simply ensorcell the desired thrall with their power, making them their slave. This would be different to how a Witch of Mind would work however, as the Witch of Heart’s minions would truly believe that they wanted to serve the Witch with all their heart, while the thralls of the Witch of Mind would simply not be more akin to thoughtless drones. They could also make people feel better or worse.

2) Soul

The soul is an abstract thing, but here it would mean splintered selves. This means that the original Witch would be able to control and manipulate their other selves. If the Witch was inexperienced then they would likely have little control and if they were a very conflicted person, the splintered selves may be aggressive toward them. A fully realised witch would perhaps be able to be in control of every other self all at once, if they were able.

3) Courage

With this ability, the Witch could raise her ally’s courage in order to help them fight against their enemies, as well as lower her enemies courage to make them easy targets.

The Witch of Heart is definitely a class you want to keep an eye on if you’re in a session with them. If they become power hungry you may end up being manipulated without even knowing it. Others may try and warn you but you’ll just laugh it off and carry on serving your new master.

Works well with: Maid of Void, Prince of Blood, Rouge of Mind

Works poorly with: Knights of Heart and Mind, Maid of Breath

Heir of Heart

Requested by justcisleague.

I’ve started this one loads of times, but never really got very far with it. All that’s about to change! Also, I’m surprised at how much I had for this. I hadn’t expected it to be that interesting but actually there’s a lot to consider.

1) Inheriting

Inheriting courage, soul, inspiration and everything else from the Heart aspect could work in several ways. For one, should the player be a troll, they could inherit these things from their ancestor. If their ancestor was particularly courageous or soulful, your troll could call on them in a time of need and inherit these traits, or gain inspiration from them. If your Heir is a human then it could be inherited from their parent/guardian/another important figure in their life. Inheriting this could give them the gut to do something terrible, or the heroism to do something brilliant, so this could work either way.

2) Inheriting using

This might mean that inheriting something from another might need gall. Perhaps they need to complete a task or they need a certain situation for the inheritance of something to happen. In this case, he probably would be able to call on his Aspect to help him gain the courage to do it. This would be a personal thing, and this would help the Heir himself, rather than affecting anybody else.

3) Soul

Inheriting the soul of an ancestor/parent/guardian/whatever may mean taking on parts of their soul. Depending on how you define ‘soul’, this could mean quite different things. I will use ‘soul’ to mean a person’s being and what makes them who they are. Inheriting this from a/p/g/w could mean that the Heir will start becoming more like them and will begin to take on their traits and being. Depending on what kind of person they are, and what their a/p/g/w is, this could mean very different things. A lovely person could become horrible, a bad person could become good, a terrible person could become worse. It really depends.

4) Becoming

Becoming courage and soul could mean encouraging it in others to the extent that they start to associate you with it, and you begin to become a representative for it to them. That was badly worded, I know, but I love this theory so stick with it. Similarly to an Heir of Hope, who becomes a beacon of hope to others, the Heir of Heart will become a beacon of inspiration and soul. They could be a person’s reason to keep fighting, and inspire and encourage them to be brave and do their best.
