User blog comment:StevenTheKing/PE Proposal: Aresia/@comment-1705775-20190613204009

unfortunately Aresia has a very solid tragic backstory and reasons for what she does, she was brutalized as a child by men and grew to hate them - yes, she was saved by a male and her plans went way too far but she has a legit psychological reason for why she developed her radical philosophy.

she acknowledged that she owed her life to a man but reasoned with "the good of one man can not outweigh the evils of the others".

she's sadly a radical formed from war, violence and being exposed to the worst of humanity rather than a truly wicked and evil character.. she also cared about other females, expressing confusing and regret when Wonder Woman etc decided to go against her.

she genuinely believed she would make the world better - extreme PTSD and whatnot, as said above.. makes it harder (but not impossible) to be a PE.
