Greetings Speedrunner,

Firstly, I suppose it's a mixture of " why is Lilim treated so highly in rankings of MGs 

From an In Universe Perspective I think Lilims are considered so great because they are Daughters of Lilith, which makes them Goddess in terms of power and ability. So from a purely power standpoint they are hard to beat.

Your OC I suppose has an intimate relationship with a Lilim.

For my own personal tastes when I was creating the OCs for my novel I wanted to do a Doctor Who and MGE crossover of sorts. So one of the main characters is Doctor Nicholas Hawthorn a thousands of years old Time Lord and a Sorcerer who specializes in Chronomancy.(He hates being called a Chronomancer, it's a running joke.) So he is powerful and fairly tired with life after a number of losses. As such he's reserved and introspective. Though he does have a compassionate, caring side when dealing with the sick or injured as well as a yearning to explore and understand the world around him. He's just grumpy at points.

I wanted a strong (both physically and mentally/ emotionally) best friend/ love interest for him that made sense both from an age standpoint (So also several thousands of years old) and that could match him in ability and power while also countering that somewhat tired worldview with a better outlook.

So with that in mind the basics of the Vellantha character was created as a Magi-Tech Sorceress and a knight that could match and even beat Nicholas in terms of power. Though she has a more sweet and bubbly personality and an  'Everyone has the potential to be good' thought process to fit with that. But I still didn't have a physical design for the character.

When I found the Lilim entry it fit with the narrative structure I wanted, and how I envisioned the Vellantha character. Plus using a Lilim worked from a from a story structure too, I needed characters that were Immortal since the characters would be jumping across time and space and Multiple Universes over thousands of years of their life. The Lilim entry as a Daughter of Lilith made sense to use in that regard.

Of course the profiles are just guidelines and I altered the character design to better conform with my novel and worked the Mutation aspect into the story arc.

Also you're not a dumbarse there's just a bit of a language barrier there, besides you should see some of the stuff I write at 3 am.

Cheers,

The Weary TimeLord. [[File:Final_With_BG.png|thumb|This was Lionrunner's design for the charcters in the novel.

She did a fantastic job so I figured I'd show it off.

Vellantha is the really tall blue skinned Lilim with the red tattoo and Nicholas is the one next to her in the dark coat with the brownish hair.]]
