I would suggest writing down what other people can see or sense from her. I would allow some sense of her void link and aether dependency to be apparent to those who might be able to sense it.
Also I would consider her flaws and how you play them. Maybe something she is suceptable to or will avoid, like life energy or direct sunlight. It just adds to the flavour.
I hope that helps.
I agree with Nebbs here.Â
Xheja has a pretty similar concept, and I go this route myself. There are a lot of characters out there that are sensitive to others' aether. It's not unreasonable to think that they would be picking up on a case of heavy Void corruption.
Of course the problem with this is that if your character is a beacon of big bad Voidyness, public RP can be hard with how many people will sense that and potentially come after you. That can be especially problematic just starting out when you don't have a real foundation for a character yet and are feeling them out through public RP. So finding a logical explanation to balance believability and convenience is pretty important.Â
Really it's just a matter of balancing and rounding out your character with positives/negatives and strengths/weaknesses, especially when messing around with Void associated characters. Because there's a definite line you can easily cross from acceptably quirky to annoyingly overpowered if you're not careful (or sometimes without even meaning to), IMHO.
