Let's take one of the new dev's quotes and pick it to the bones until Ex3 Sidereals comes out or we grow bored:
As I know nothing about Demon: the Descent, I had to google what a Demon's cover was.
This is what I want with a Resplendent Destiny. I want my PC to slip into an existing social group and not have to come up with weird excuses as to why they suddenly showed up. I want the Social group to believe the Sidereals has been there for years. Yes, I know Sidereals get a dice bonus for those situations, but that isn't the same as "What are you talking about? Lin and I grew up together." The idea of people not even existing until a cover is created is kind of cool, but I imagine this part of Cover won't make it into game. If it does, the Sidereal will most likely accrue paradox for creating new people on the Loom.
I like this idea SO much better than the paradox table. Strange things happen around the Sidereal with high levels of paradox. A shattered cup lies on the floor, but is still in the Sidereal's hand unbroken. A strange child follows the Sidereal around. No one knows where she came from.
Identity stealing has always been in the Lunar's wheelhouse more than the Sidereals. With each splat growing to take up more narrative space, maybe a Sidereal can take over an Innkeeper's place for a week until the Solar Circle has passed.
While Sidereals aren't unfeeling inhuman monsters like Demons, I wonder if a Resplendent Destiny could carry intimacies with it. For example, the Sidereal who took the Innkeeper's place now has a temporary intimacy for the Innkeeper's children.
