Verity probably thinks they're friends and is loyal to her and Lavinia is outwardly very nice/charming/respectful of her, but Lavinia probably personally can't stand her and only uses her to get what she wants.

This could be fun! At some point Verity discovers Lavinia has been playing her and as she prides herself on knowing everything about court she really flies off the handle, and switches sides?

Ooh this is getting good and we haven't even started yet. I think it'd be interesting if while trying to form alliances, Aria discovers a less than wonderful side of Lavina (@ElinorBrynn this may be a prime time to show off Lavinia's crazy) and begin to lean more towards alliances with Henry, all the while curiously watching the enigmatic Prince Northpeak. Thoughts? Ideas?
@Griffinkeeper - I'm going to give Lauren, Lou, Auxii and Aria some time to post their profiles, and give us all a chance to plot a bit. I like plotting ahead in SBs, it's my favourite bit!
So to that end: http://stellathomas.writerfeedpad.com/17 here you go everybody! Please scribble ALL OVER THIS. Genuinely, I don't care what you add or change, I would just love to see all your thoughts.

@AWritingAffliction I actually love that a lot. Aria would probably not want to let on to Lavinia that she didn't have her support any more, though, otherwise she would be in trouble

@StellaThomas: I think Verity and Aaron should become an item, while simultaneously doing everything in their power to prevent anyone else from figuring that out. See the pad for more info.
Well, my iPad's working against me and my profile was just deleted twice. So, sorry for it being so short and meh now, I'm way too mad to rewrite it all as it was.

Apologies for double post but I wanted mentions to work:
- @AriaAdams looks good, Aria, you're so darn creative! The only thing I'd just like you to clarify is, who exactly is her father? Is she biologically Bernard's, Lavinia's or Henry's half sister? XD but I like her a lot, another wildcard tossed into the mix!
@Griffinkeeper - makes sense, let's go for it! I especially like "Aaron is after Verity, Aria is after Aaron and Henry is after Aria." Let's complete the circle with that (at least originally), Verity is after Henry. Because why not xD

That moment when you're sharing a name with a character.
As for your question, I don't know xD She's 22, so her father *could* technically have been either of theirs. I figured it might need to be a thing for us to discuss and figure what makes most sense/what we want the most, so if you (or anyone) have a preference, I'm good with everything.

I love the idea of Verity and Aaron having an affair. I do think Aaron should fall for Lavinia before he realizes she just's playing him and doesn't actually care about him. Verity could realize this afterwards, and at first they could be too afraid to do anything before they decide to plot her assassination.
A thought.
