I feel that in my bones.
I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes.

Genevieve’s Aspects
Prime - Freedom from Obligation: An arranged marriage is the best Genevieve can hope for if she stays at home; adventuring is freedom!
The way I understand this is that she’s been sheltered and hidden away most of her life and her newfound freedom is intoxicating, yet she is also very naive about the rest of the world. I might call it something like “Freedom is exhilarating and new”
Heretic of the Blood: A royal blood princess who also has access to heretical magic in her blood. Oh the humanity!
does it make you do things? or is this just a matter of people finding out?
Touched by the Dragon: Algweorn and/or the Cult of the Dragon are looking for mortals who have to ties to dragonkind.
This works
Evil Stepmother’s Hatred: The new queen of Fake France has it in for her husband’s favoured firstborn and wants Genevieve out of the picture even though she can’t inherit the crown.
She’s the one who is out to get you, sounds good

I like it.
I guess I didn’t really think about the ramifications of this train of thought. If the former, then it’s almost like Wild magic, and if the latter, Genevieve becomes a sorcerer who doesn’t actually want to cast spells (well at least in public). Interesting. Do we want to open up either of those cans of worms?
As for the group thing. This is the first set of people she’s met outside of the closed circle of her upbringing. They:
- came to her defense aboard the ship
- appear to be adventurers
That’s good enough for her.
