Character Ideas:
Okay, so real briefly: my character, Malika, is loyal to the Shah...but she's also painfully naive. This means that if someone wanted information about the Shah from her, she wouldn't freely turn it over to help the rebellion...but she could, certainly, be manipulated.
Alternatively, if someone wanted to make up more of a spy-type character, they could make up a slave who serves alongside Malika...but where Malika adores the Shah, this other character (you!) might hate her.
Just some thoughts. Random thoughts!
