Yeah, I'm thinking she'd try not to be obvious, though on the other hand, she's not trying to hide that she came through a rift (in the present, at least), so there's that.

But I could also go with resilient enough to counter or break free of some psychic effects without damaging her mind, with concentration and effort, if you think that would work better? It's more flexible than an always on protection, at least?

Well, the hexarchate authorities are probably in a tizzy trying to deal with people coming through rifts, LOL. As long as she's not walking up to a cop and shapeshifting right in their face, she's probably fine. :p

If you want something that's less likely to get her arrested on the psi front, a more flexible anti-psi effect would probably be safer for her--I would tend to recommend the revised suggestion over always-on protection, yes.

In any case, welcome to the game! I'll add you to the roster.

Hmm, yes, they've got a lot to deal with. But should she be trying to hide that she came through a rift, or just that she has some unusual abilities? I.e. is anything happening to rift folk in general so that it would be advantageous to not be identified as one (it might be possible that Elesa's patroness is willing to cover for her, maybe?), or are they free to figure out how to make their living and fit themselves into the world as best they can?

And sure, let's go with the revised version then. Sounds good, thanks!

The hexarchate tends to be suspicious of foreigners in general, but just hiding the unusual abilities is probably sufficient. I think realistically the general attitude toward rift folk is that the authorities are going to go after troublemakers and anyone who keeps their head down and assimilates (or doesn't make obvious waves) is going to be left alone. And sure, I could definitely see Elesa's patroness covering for her.
