Valciane

Valciane is a Forge Follower. She is curt, mechanical, emotionless, and inhumanly strong.

One may engage in a romantic relationship with Valciane if she is spoken to and Oriflamme's Auction House is chosen as the subject of discussion. Temptation: Power or any of its forms (ex., Desire: Power) is also required to do so.

Valciane, an acquaintance

Romance:

Valciane can be romanced at Oriflamme's Auction House.

Some prefer moonlit walks. Some prefer soft music. But there are those whose enjoy shining opulence, high company, and the soft click of the operations of power.

- Invitation description

Valciane nods curtly, but her eyes glow as coals do when a furnace door is opened.

- Followup description

Valciane inches closer as we speak together. When she takes my hand, the machine strength of her fingers is matched by the embery heat of her skin. 'I'm not light', she warns me. 'We should establish tolerances.'

- Success description

Valciane's skin glows with furnace heat. Her strength is exquisitely strained. Each time when I leave, she follows me down the stairs for a final kiss.

Ever After

She fills our lives with shapely things: treasures of porcelain, nacre, blown glass. Some are the products of her work. Some are tokens from trips abroad. They collect in piles around our home, forming curious passageways. But I find her among the mazes she builds. She wants very much to be found. [This might be considered a victory. But the House is no place for lovers.]
