Do you have a setting, character, plot, art, or other notion that you wish to put on the Internet? This is the Internet! Whee!

Idania seems likely to be extra inconvenienced by trackerhood in that she seems likely to change keepers, possibly several times. Would she?

Yup! She would change keepers a lot, actually, unless she had a Rae or an actual long-term lover. She honestly wouldn't mind it as much as Aldaras does, though, she would just sit down and cheerily tell them all required information and then move on from there. If the favorite person starts trying to extort information from her, they immediately stop being her favorite person and she runs.

It was ever clarified if the keeper needs to be actively liked or it can be the least despised person?

And... noooo. It needs to be multiple Verons, they would be her servants, cleaning the house, fetching her drinks, fanning her with longer peacock-feather fans, giving her massages and handfeeding her grapes. While wearing skimpy outfits displaying their forever-young bodies for her viewing pleasure. True Love!

It is a homestuck thing, they have this alien race called trolls who have four kinds of "romance" the ♢ symbol represents one that is described as "platonic soulmates", each kind of romance can be filled by different people.

The ranking of favorite person is relative, so the least despised person is valid.

I genuinely can't see Veron ever doing that. Idania would think it's hilarious, but Veron - just wouldn't do that xD

Man, that world really got the worse deal, magic wise.

Well, clearly we need a new template specific for that... for science, yes, for science!

This is kinda of sad, but what kinds of artifacts Cypress, Olympia, Adarin-from-Treasury-that-I-cant-remember-the-name and Idania would leave behind?

Idania would be amused by the setup you've described at first, but about two days into it she would tell them to stop it because it's weirding her out. Silliness is one thing, being treated like she's a goddess instead of a person is another matter entirely.

Most of them don't treasure an item enough to make an artifact, but I'll go with their most treasured item anyway.

Cypress's wedding ring would be the artifact, and on top of the communication thing it already has, would grant a power that lets you switch planes, but not actually teleport. Sort of useful, except for the part where you have to travel for ages to get to a spot where you won't die immediately when you switch planes. The side effect would be getting a shadow of a daemon - unable to speak, but also incapable of separating and regular rules about touching daemons apply. The daemon is still sentient, and your soul.

Olympia's dagger would be the artifact, and it would give the person an aura of plant growth. The touched would gain a complete abhorrence of clothes and mentally become an exhibitionist.

Aldaras is tricky. I don't know what his chosen artifact would be, but it would grant the ability to pick a specific person and be able to tell where they are anywhere in the world, and their physical status/how injured they are. The side effect would be becoming an obsessive completionist, to the point where if you start anything you literally can't stop until it's finished. There is no way to avoid this, there's only finishing a task and then switching to a new one that also needs to be finished.

Pantheon's Idania's artifact would grant flight. The side effect's a severe, crippling claustrophobia and fear of being trapped in any form. Those touched would be super not into bondage.

Okay, I will take what I can get.

That woman with the ghosts and the bow-making widow are secondary characters in your or something?

edit:

Would Prime date a younger alt? Would he date one without knowing they are alts?
