[X] Emerald Gyre of Aeons Style

honestly as soon as i saw the training involved tripping balls on acid i was sold
 
Ironically, the drug induced hallucinations are the primary mark against Emerald Gyre of Aeons for me. Prismatic Arrangement of Creations essence meditation is much more appealing for me personally, particularly with Gazetteer's flare for describing the more stunning vista's of creation. The essence lore alone makes this distinctly worthwhile before anti sorcery fisticuffs and full anima mimicry.

Also, someone might do art of Grace with prominent dragonblood aspect markings, which would be really, really cool. Can't help but be curious whose markings Grace would fashion her own after.

I think it is interesting to analyze the ways in which Grace is comfortable in engaging with violence, the degree in which she can think of restraint and care in her work, and how she views herself in relation to the harm she inevitably brings about.

That is to say, all of these questions are much funnier if her SMA is a consumptive art of sublime beauty-horror where an ideal move may in fact be cannibalizing someone, tasting their Essence, and experiencing how they dissolve in your maw. It is terrifyingly captivating and deeply visceral as an approach to violence that's so sticky fingered and well, hungry that she has to deal with as she develops in it! Prismatic Arrangement of Creation and Emerald Gyre are broader but, in this case, I think I appreciate a fine point that can really punch into several things Grace will be considering about her service as a Sidereal.

I wasn't considering it but meeting the philosophical discrepancies head-on does sound interesting (what was Kejak thinking when he included this one in the learning recommendations to Grace, and what specific thing, if any, would make her settle on it...)
 
Emerald Gyre of Aeons Style : 34

Prismatic Arrangement of Creation Style : 31

Charcoal March of Spiders Style : 22

Pretty split vote. I wonder if Grace asked her house's opinion? :V
 
The house would just express a hope that Grace won't practice Amethyst Edge of Severance inside and slash through a wall again, and have to be reminded that Grace and Wayward Prayer are not the same person.

Also that was one time--
