he's young and open to change

probably has had all sorts of crazy stuff happen to him thanks to Wild Magic in the past

[Adragis]

Sandra is used to change but she still freaks out when things happen

Alan freaked out.
Then people insisted on renaming him.
Alanis didn't freak out because she had always been that way since her conception.

@Twi:Not really.  But sort of.

[Adragis]

That makes no sense. A name does not a person make.

[BlitzDungeoneer]

i think tbf is implying theyre basically seperate people

[Adragis]

which makes me feel bad for Alan

[TheBiggerFish]

That makes no sense. A name does not a person make.

Names have power, though.  In magic and in real life.
Give something a name, and it's different from a nameless thing.
Like, the difference between 'a dog'  and 'Butterscotch'.

They're the same person, Alan and Alanis, but they're different personas.

[Shadestyle]

Dackly and Gozer plan to make flying devices out of the gravityballz™, so there is anouther route to flight for Alanis.

Calling me 'Marigold' would hardly have changed me from who I am.

[TheBiggerFish]

I don't know.  Once you all gave her a name, it started snowballing.

I'm not expressing this very well at all.

But it's like, a character.

[Adragis]

I never gave her a name, jeez.

[Twinwolf]

So they constructed a new mental version of themself to cope with being in a body they don't feel is their own. Is that right?

[TheBiggerFish]

The characters pushed a renaming.

Alanis was born from that.

Sort of.  Maybe.  Close enough.
They constructed a new version of themself to take possession of their new body, I think is more how it went.
