Anything to report from week 4/plans for week 5?

Some of the Diabolin collective conscious was leaking through around Asa during the quakes, especially when she was agitated, but it doesn't seem like anyone really took note of it.

Next week she's going to have the sense that something is amiss wherever her own body is, and come to realise that while all other Dreamers have come and gone with waking and sleeping, she's been present through it all. I'm not sure if during the elves uprising her body will have been damaged wherever it was being kept. If/when she realises that Allura and Thae have died, she's going to be very distressed since she was told that she could have been key to their survival, if that might give way for more Diabolin psychobabbles/hallucinations etc.

Is there anything to watch out for should Asa be caught in the Starquake and turned into a Harbinger - i.e. will the Diabolin conscious have any effect on it?

[powersthatare]

Oooh.

I would think she'd be more likely to flicker in an out of Harbinger status, and might change multiple times per scene.

[galvanizer]

And just how much damage/chaos might she cause as a Diabolin Harbinger? Or would it just be a case of her flickering between both states nonstop.

As for her body in the waking world - was she being kept in a medbay or cryogenically frozen? Would it still be kept safe or would it be losing power from life-support with the rebellion?

[powersthatare]

No more or less damage than any other Hasrbinger! Just a faster toggle switch.

She was in a medbay, and while nothing the rebellion did would have directly effected her, you could play around with that if you wanted to - say Diabolins after the fact directed power away from her life support systems and towards security.
