help with character?

[Susan]

can someone help me with this character? Liana is simply listed as Liana, not Liana Scott, she's in all 6 of the A Distant Soil trades and the individual comic issues but NOT Forbidden Legacy by Phoebe Conn or XX by A.R. Arisandi...

and https://ofearna.us/comics/ads/liana2.jpg is a public image of the character

both those books seem to have a character of the same name, which is why they are linked here.

I am wondering if Liana needs her name changed to keep it clearer? I forgot this, but the wikipedia page gives her full name as Hunter Liana Scott (she was always just Liana to me!).

Librarian guidance for common names is:
"Make every attempt to distinguish the character with a unique name; the character's common name can be placed in the Alias field. If this is not possible, then add a short version of the book or series title in parentheses to distinguish between characters with the same name."

I think creating a character under her full name (with Liana as her alias) and removing the existing character link would make the most sense here- this way seems preferable to me, rather than "Liana Scott (A Distant Soil)", and I'm happy to do that if another ADS reader thinks it makes sense :)

Sounds great to me -- and she's in all 6 of the graphic novels (the original Immigrant Song and Knight of the Angel and the "new" The Gathering, The Ascendant, The Aria, and Coda) as well as all 9+42 individual issues and Images of ADS...

Hi- created a new character as Hunter Liana Scott, removed the other two Lianas from the individual books, and linked her to the 4 volumes of ADS plus Immigrant Song and Knights of the Angel.

I can work on adding her to the individual issues over the next few days, and a picture too. (Focussed on the books as I don't really think individual comics should be on here as they're not books, but they always find a way somehow :))

COOL We both thank you and are reading madly during quarantine :)
