* GeniusBruiser: while it's somewhat exaggerated due to her having a headstart, Alina did invent the technique of turning jade into thread and weaving artifacts - which is promptly classified as a breakthrough. And she did managed to effectively master a celestial martial art before she was fifteen, beating the previous record by years.
Added DiffLines:
* LittleMissBadass: let's just remember that by the end of the story, Alina is barely fifteen years old.

* RedBaron: Alina has earned the nickname 'Sunslayer' for her list of Solar kills. She doesn't particularly appreciate it.

* DyingMomentOfAwesome: How the story starts. Alina's past life calls up the Kukla, Creation's single most powerful Elemental, and leads it on a rampage through the mostly victorious armies of the dead before killing the Ebon Dragon, himself and all Creation - to cover for the fact that his Circle have carved off a chunk of Creation to rebuild around. Not bad for a 'mere Dragonblood'.

* BadassBookworm: Alina's past life was literally called the Bookwyrm. He was known for reading, kung fu, crafting and fathering children. She notes that of these four things reading was the one that she considered a pleasure, the others were simply necessary. As for badass, she is and was a Terrestrial who operates as a full equal to Celestial Exalted.
Added DiffLines:
* BlueBlood: Alina is quite improbably well-bred, in terms of visible Terrestrial Exalted heritage, as was her previous incarnation. It's why Demarol adopts her in her infancy.
Added DiffLines:
* CuteBruiser: Alina is small, blonde, punches demons, gods, mountains and other Exalted into submission.

* UnderestimatingBadassery: The Sidereal Crane severely underestimated his ability to throw Alina under the bus for Lyta's death.

* IntangiblePrice: Alina's past life gave up the ability to experience for romantic love. She's not sure if that still binds her or not. Or if it was worthwhile.
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: because Dragonblooded live long lives and raise children in household creches, Alina has a sibling-like relationship with Icole, Hunt, Doreg, Nalan and Opiha.
** Alina's past life fathered a frankly absurd number of children.

Added DiffLines:
* TheHeretic: Alina noted that in her past life she rewrote the Immaculate Texts to remove the Sidereal's deliberate inaccuracies, which caused a schism in the Immaculate Order.

The story starts with the destruction of Creation, around a century after the normal timeframe for the setting. The Bookwyrm, a powerful Dragonblood, attempts to get reincarnated into a fragment of Creation that's been broken off to act as a seed for reconstruction. However, he is instead reborn in his own past, into House Tepet - who are destined to be shattered by the Bull of the North.

* ActionGirl: Alina is a rather small girl but she's also a deadly dangerous martial artist who can punch well above her small weight.
* GreyAndGrayMorality: House Tepet and the Realm are not nice, but nor are their enemies.
** Alina's own past life was by no means a paragon.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: The Kukla is unleashed in the opening of the story, devastating much of Creation almost incidentally.
* SupernaturalMartialArts: Alina practises several, some of of which the Immaculate Order would consider heretical.
