+ | |||
+ | Standing about 160cm tall, Cordelia is a slight, delicate-looking woman who could vanish quite easily in a crowd. She wears her dark blond hair to neck length, and few jewelry or ornaments. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Many have remarked that the first thing they notice about her is her eyes, which a poetically inclined ex-colleague once likened to ''"Uncut sapphires long left / To mercy of wind and sand".'' They peer out at the world from behind plain square glasses: tired, unfocused, as if she is perpetually distracted by something only she can see. | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Personality == | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[File:Cordite in uniform 5.png|border]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | Cordelia is the model of a stereotypical introvert: timid, awkward, conflict-averse and armed with an online persona far more outgoing and witty than she is. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Her reclusive lifestyle and lack of any real circle of friends have done no favors for either her understanding of the world or her interpersonal skills. Compounding this is an almost pathological shyness. She doesn't talk a lot, and when she does, it is often without much thought; surprise and even hurt tend to follow if others take offense. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Past all that, however, she is a good-hearted person who is always up for reaching out a helping hand. That is, if she can push it past the social anxiety first. | ||
+ | == RP Hooks == | ||
− | + | [[File:Cordite in uniform 3.png|border]] | |
− | ''' | + | * '''Guns.''' Cordelia is an amateur gun enthusiast, and was formerly an active member of several London-based shooting clubs. This hobby is what earned her her nickname, 'Cordite', from teasing co-workers. |
+ | * '''Mundane life.''' She is very attached to her pre-Bee life - it's an anchor to sanity for her - and still struggles to hold down a mundane office job when not on Templar duty. Her work experience includes five years as an admin assistant at a small London-based web firm called Mag-314 Solutions, and, currently, Admin & Exhibits at the British Museum of the Occult. | ||
+ | * '''Religion.''' She was raised a very devout Catholic. | ||
+ | * '''Inter-Society collaboration.''' She resents the Secret War between the factions, and strongly believes that, in the fight against cosmic evil, everyone is on the same side. | ||
− | + | '''SEE ALSO:''' [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1x2mF-n5tBzGWjvU7erK55AqW97hyNdww SWL Cor-mics] (scenes and moments from Cordelia's life in comic strip form, made with in-game screenshots). | |

− | == | + | =• OOC Notes •= |
+ | * Playtimes: weeknights and weekends, GMT/UTC plus 8. | ||
+ | * Will RP in-game and via Twitter tweets and DMs. No long-form, MUSH-style RP out of game. | ||
+ | * RP preferences: adventure/mission, plots, shades of gray. No ERP or permadeath. I also do not consider the game's story missions in-character (since all players share them), and do not acknowledge any RP directly tied to these. | ||
+ | * Lore-adherent (in-game content is king), but willing to bend it within reason. | ||

− | + | '''Latest developments (post-Season 1):''' | |
− | |||
− | |||
− | + | Cordelia's life and worldview was upended at the close of Season 1, after [https://twitter.com/i/moments/922392790218113024 a fateful encounter] in Orochi Tower. The revelation of her past deaths, and of the true nature of angels, left her lost and embittered - and shattered the religious beliefs she had lived by since childhood. | |
+ | In the wake of the encounter, she made [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CT9LUdRaOtWSFQKKhnF7AVzHQ8NtVD8d/view a suicidal trip] to the Hell Dimensions, which was ended only through [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hmDXLT3napDrqYoWB0swTHgvIfICiVYj/view a friend's intervention]. | ||
− | + | What happened to her in the Tower has yet to be fully revealed, but the changes it wrought on her are far more than behavioral: formerly an arcanophobe and lacking in any magical ability whatsoever, she now possesses a strange form of blood magic that she cannot fully control. It seems to be a direct manifestation of her anima, appearing as stigmata from her hands in response to as-yet-unknown subconscious triggers; fearing and detesting it, she is never seen without gloves or some sort of hand coverings. | |
