Character Information
Summary
Sc4rl3tt is a technomancer in hiding, using a blend of Southern charm and polite refusal to answer direct questions to create uncertainty as to how she works in the Matrix.
Goals
To find somewhere she doesn't need to be anything but her. It's irksome to have to pick up and move when the villagers come out with their torches and pitchforks because you're wired differently. To deepen her connection with the Matrix and her abilities since it's the only place she's ever felt a 'high' or a 'low' and her hedonic treadmill didn't snap her back to 'normal' immediately after.
Background
Narrative Significant Qualities
Sc4rl3tt has been diagnosed as many things in early childhood (before her parents found that even the best psychologists have loose lips), ranging from antisocial personality disorder (sociopathy) to autism spectrum disorder. She lacks the ability to empathize and finds that most emotions (as others describe them) just don't exist in her brain. To cover for her lack, her mother instilled in to her from a very early age that she is a proper Southern Lady - sweet, kind, and charming to everyone she comes into contact with. Her condition is less apparent within the Matrix as she finds herself much more comfortable in a predictable world. When a therapist in her teens discovered she also suffers from synesthesia, he pushed her to develop a creative outlet as a means of relaxation, reflection, and social icebreakers - she carries a sketch pad and pencil wherever she goes now.
Positive
- Technoshaman - the Matrix has always been easier than the real world. Sprites are almost as good as friends, right? At least she understands sprites.
- Trust Data, not Lore - as someone who has a very hard time with feelings in general, she long ago decided that her gut wasn't "wired correctly" so she trusts data above everything else.
Negative
- Antipathy - an inability to feel most things has left her with no way to fully comprehend how to be an emotional, functional human that successfully interacts with other emotional, functional beings. She has a shiny veneer of charm to cover for her lack, but when questioned, the mask has a tendency to fall off and reveal the (almost) flat automaton underneath.
- Every Man for Himself (or Herself) - it's nothing personal, but with an inability to form connections and empathize, she's more likely than not to trust you to take care of yourself in professional situations.
- Insomnia - Sensory overload and a life of hiding have made sleep hard to come by.
- Reduced Taste - brain must have just run out of wires at some point when it was double and triple wiring all her other senses.

Appearance
Clothing
If it weren't for that shock of auburn hair and those luminescent green eyes, you'd never really remember her if you saw her on the street - which is how she likes it. While she is 'attractive' Sc4rl3tt goes to great lengths to downplay any distinctiveness (covering her hair, hiding behind sunglasses). Typically she dresses in black, favoring zip up hoodies, t-shirts with bands everyone has heard of, leggings, and tennis shoes that are at least 60 years out of date.
Matrix Persona
In the matrix, Sc4rl3tt lets her guard down slightly - she appears much as she does on the street, but her hair is a neon rainbow riot of color. Her matrix actions often appear as if they were parts of a symphony and she the conductor, and her sprites resemble fantastical beasts (she has a love of unicorns she will not admit to).
