> Just feel I'm disgracing Saphira as a character...
It's a much more common feeling than you'd think. Personally, I don't see why you'd feel that way, considering you're just hitching her up with a different rider (so far; you're probably planning some more deviations from the plot).

It's important to remind yourself that she's a fictional character, and that rewriting her story (and her) into completely different things isn't an act of disrespect. You're pouring time and energy into creating a story - not a fetish fic - by using pre-established characters. If you were using my characters I'll feel honored.

>...I'm changing her to something else.
That's fair. She would be somewhat different than her canon description due to the differences in her upraising; it's only natural. Frankly, I'm interested in seeing how she's different with this other rider, and to compare canon Saphira with this one. As long as you keep the original character of Saphira in mind as you go about it.

Changing her isn't an act of disrespect in this instance: it's an act of keeping the plot internally consistent; it's an acknowledgement that she's a person that's affected by her upbringing. I feel it'll be more disrespectful to keep her fully canon-compliant after everything you've depicted of her childhood.

I'll like to see you continue the story, because I'm now invested in these characters. But of course, that's your call. If you feel you cannot continue, whether that being due to not wanting to disrespect the characters or not knowing how the plot would continue, then it's best to stop. You are just going to bash your head against a brick wall if the story simply doesn't work.

Maybe, once Siveth is complete in whatever manner, you should try your hand at some original characters; you have the experience and I feel you are capable enough to do so.
