On the other hand, Conan never had much connection to his old life in the stories, so that's a viable approach... but if you go that route, she'll need some good, strong inherent motivations of her own; greed, lust (of the wander- or conventional variety), gloryhounding, etc.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Well, as I am working on refining her background, I'll bear that in mind. :) There are a myriad ways around those elements, of course, starting with there being no indication whatsoever that either the chief's son or Nyaxa's wife were only children. ;D<br/><br/>I was actually figuring on the last three motivations you suggested sort of blending into a need-for-coin. She is not so much financially greedy as out to live life to its fullest. Anyhow, back to work for me!
