Mmm, good catch on the Lonely Spirit. I hadn't noticed that on either of them. As for Spirit in Combat, I thought as much as well.

Looking over the character earlier, as I said, she's written in a somewhat open ended style. But viewing her in this way made the character "click" in my mind & made her "make sense".

You would have to "read between the lines" but observe the following, if taken somewhat literally:

Quote:Liliana, Lost Soul

Though youthful, Liliana is an old soul who was changed forever when her entire village was wiped out by a vicious creature. Swearing an oath of vengeance, she now travels the countryside, hunting that very villain that savaged everything she once held dear. Her singular focus on revenge has given her strength over the years to press on, many times closing in on the beast, only to have it slip through her grasp. At last she has tracked it once more to the small town of Shadowbrook. No more shall die by its hands.

Shadow Of The Past - May roll an extra Fight Dice for each Hit she does in a Fight Round.

Spirited - Always uses Spirit in a fight.

Loss Of Faith - May not exchange Items or Allies with other Heroes. Training Spirit at the Church requires an Honor 6+ test for her.

Lost soul, old soul, shadow of the past, spirited, cannot exchange Items & Allies with other heroes, penalty for training Spirit @ the Church...all takes on a different meaning given the context.

ATOE: The gift that keeps on giving.
