I rolled up a sylvan just after reading the fountainhead, and had a three hour interview with sebeok liberally throwing in dashes of Rand. It worked well, and was a fun interview. I never played a Skarab, but from what I read of Ingvar's posts, it seems somewhat in line with Rand, also. That sculpture story could have been written by Howard Roark. As far as Empire, yeah, I can see that, too, in her "failure" characters (eg. Wynand, Tooley). So, basically, I agree, she's a good source for roleplaying for nearly any cabal. She writes in brutal, uncompromising absolutes, and CF is a game of brutal, uncompromising absolutes (usually).
