Character Information

Summary

Bird changeling girl who started to do small time hacking to help pay for her art major, and now fell into this entire huge shadow mess

Goals

Survive! No really, this stuff is VERY scary!

Figure out all this technomancy stuff. Submerge, or something, whatever these technos do.

Get that degree!

Background

Ophelia is the daughter of Kenneth and Marco, an Horizon middle management executive and a former child actor turned adult civil engineer. Perhaps atypically in this line of work, her dads are both alive, doing well and still love her very, very dearly. From the medical complications after her SURGE, that left her body weak and her muscles in a state of permanent hypotrophy, to her early emerging, to her gender transition, they remained by her side, trying to help her ease into the admittedly quite complicated adult life she was getting ready to face.

A super early bloomer, perhaps due to her emerged status, Ophelia very quickly developed a taste for art, more specifically painting and performance art, getting through all her education with abysmal scores as she used most of her time to draw instead of actually studying, and despite her young age, actually managed to get a name going in certain high society circles, where bored rich people commissioned her works, some as genuine fans of her bold and often cyptic style, while others much more cynically planned to buy the early works of someone whom could later in life becoming an established artist, and make the value of those canvases sky rocket. Still, most of them were obvious to her talent in everything matrix, and so she started extracting data, hacking smart home systems, so on and so forth. Really, at first it was for fun, or expression. Perhaps both. But it quickly became lucrable.

At first, it was just corporate espionage, selling blueprints of items she didn't realize to firms she didn't know existed, but it quickly devolved in digging blackmailable material, or even forging it. When her parents found out, they scolded her, both because they disapproved what was by all means a crime, but also because Kenneth was well aware of what happened to those that made a false step while stealing from the big hitters, and didn't want that fate to befall his daughter.

Now though, she is an adult, and left her small hometown for Seattle, to study at the prestigious, Horizon sponsored university. Visual arts, to be exact. And left alone in her dorm room, away from the judging eyes of her dads, she decided to get back in business, hoping she will manage to stay small, and not get in trouble

Narrative Significant Qualities

• Bird Person - A nice thing. A peahen? Perhaps, some traits. Yes, an owl. partially. A being inbetween, stuck in there. A permanent metamorphosis. Poetic, really. Ominous too.
  1. Beak - An interesting silhouette, yes. The hardness of food, irrelevant, very peculiar facial mimic. Beautiful, in a foreign way, like a blue sun.
  2. Electrosense - A dance of negative currents, that evolve, wrap, they move, and exists in that movement. Electricity is ethereal, it is in how it isn't. I'm glad to be able to put it down in paint.
  3. Metagenic Improvement: Charisma - They like me. I don't know why. They do. Or, they like the homonculus of expectations and stereotypes they constructed in their mind in my likeness. That! I will teaer that down! I will be the only me they see!
  4. Nasty Vibe - CAPITALISM DIED! THE WEST DIED! LOVE DIED! ALL DIES! YOU, TOO, WILL DIE! DESPAIR, DESPAIR, DESPAIR!
  5. Vomeronasal Organ - I lack a fun thing to say. People just stink, really fucking bad. No like, REALLY bad
  6. Astral Hazing - Magic rebukes me, the astral frays in my presence. There is symbolism here. A hole in the collective unconscious? No, my vast and oceanic soul! No, something else...
  7. Bioluminescent - Sei, e sempre sarai, la mia piccola stellina
  8. Feathers - A suggestion of air. Upwards mobility, and yet, I am caged here, in concrete. My fate denied by my own inadequacy. Shaped for the potential, destroyed to never accomplish it. Cruel, in a very loving way.
  9. Impaired Attribute: Strength - My skeleton REALLY fucking sucks.

• A normal person - No shade here, but like...yeah no. Ugh
  1. Electronic Witness - There is so much stuff going on! All the time! This is inspiration GOLD
  2. Creature of Comfort: Middle - I'm sorry! I don't want to sleep in filth!
  3. Sinner: UCAS - What do you mean you are not citizens! I could help get you registered, it is quite easy! Come, come!
  4. Infirm - Yeah no I can't do the shit you do. The whole double jumping on walls and stuff, I'd break EVERY bone in my body INSTANTLY
