I've thought about doing more with her, but on an OOC level I get self conscious when I think about opening up her story to include others because too many people and its a clusterfuck, people end up feeling neglected, key players end up not around and the story has to shift, etc.
The support bit aside, Lili is realistic in a way Camille from The Originals is while at the same time being able to accept things that are outside her previously figured realm of possibility. I can't really think of another show or series that might aptly describe the accurate kind of tone to place with her, but if I had to be general it'd be healthy bit of realism mixed with romdram due to her hectic love life with a pinch of dramatics because, well, life IS drama.
This is how I usually play Tarot. Always a supporting character, never the lead. And sometimes, that just works better for a character if they are the type that is along for the ride; it lets you develop and reveal aspects in your own time rather than having to pick the right time so you don't hog the spotlight as WELL as running a story.
Yeah, pretty much. Some FC mates and I are developing a personal story with Lili that will put her through a LOT of drastic development in a very condensed time period. It'll be something that ultimately changes how I play her from that point onwards and I have NO idea how bad it will be.
