| Q: What do you get when you take a woman born thousands of years ago, Awaken her, and then drop her in modern day Philadelphia?
A: Trouble
[ edit ]

Lost and Found: Tsara is straight out of her Awakening, which started in a time and place she doesn't have numbers or names for and ended in the here and now. How? Why? Who the heck knows, blame Arcadia and the sorts of nonsense that seem to happen around the Acanthus for Reasons.
Everything New Under the Sun: Nearly everything that Tsara encounters in the modern world is completely new to her, whether that's in a minor way like a fabric she's never seen before or major ones like electronic devices, but this also includes things like social customs, philosophical concepts, and many other things that people take for granted. She has a million questions about everything and not a single solitary qualm about pointing out things that are truly ridiculous or just horrible.
Trouble Magnet: A combination of weapons-grade nonchalance and an empty void where knowledge of modern conventions should be means that Tsara is likely to just walk blithely into situations that she should probably think twice (or even once, good grief) about.
Spiritual Cycles: Tsara's modern identity, Miriam Bar Zohar, shot into the public eye in 2023 when her debut novel, Spiritual Cycles, was published. The novel was a 150-success work of art with themes of Interconnectedness (+5) and Loss (+5), Moods of Optimistic (+5), Mysterious (+5), and Wonderous (+5), and a Meaning of "No person is incapable of meaningful contribution" (+5). It was published simultaneously in English, Hebrew, and Yiddish, and shot immediately to the top of the NYT Bestseller list, with almost universally positive reviews. (Fame  )

Songs for here and now
|
|
Kacey Musgraves - Follow Your Arrow
- You're damned if you do
- And you're damned if you don't
- So you might as well just do
- Whatever you want
|
Jem - They
- Who made up all the rules
- We follow them like fools
- Believe them to be true
- Don't care to think them through
|
Songs for what came before
|
|
Love Outside Andromeda - Juno
- I don't miss you
- I woke up I was clinging to
- Some bed sheets and a use-by date
- I had disappeared in who did what
- The wrong in wanting what you didn't want
|
Love Outside Andromeda - Chameleon
- As brave as I am
- I come out with a broken down mystery
- I can't work out how you cannot love me
- But this is nothing new
- It has been done, I must let it be
- Not walk around with untidy hands
- Making you my own misery

| Long-Term Nimbus:
Memories come to mind of things that could or should have happened, but didn't.
Immediate Nimbus:
A sense of displacement in time, as though now is not when the viewer should be, and that the more modern things around them are the more wondrous and impossible they seem. (Tilt: -2 Composure)
Signature Nimbus:
Things imprinted with this nimbus feel renewed, as if they've been aging in reverse since the nimbus touched them.
