Prior to coming to LifeAftr, what is an aspect of your character that they struggled with - be it a shortcoming, a fear, a bad habit, or eccentricity? Hoo boy there's actually a lot. The biggest one though, I think, is codependency. Her emotional state has depended a lot on the handful of people she's started caring a great deal about, particularly how well their doing or even just... their outright presence. In LifeAftr, one of the biggest hang-up points she's had is the possibility that she might not see them again, if she doesn't get home and doesn't fix things.

What do they struggle with now? Is it the same as the above? I kind of touched on that a little but yes, yes she does. Right now it's centered a lot on Shion, to the point of putting him up on a pedestal. But it's a universal problem.

What personal demons, specifically, haunt your character from canon or from past game experiences? I'm a little unclear on this question, but I think the big ones are just... the possibility of failing her friends, or making a wrong choice - a big one - that ends up hurting the people she cares about or putting them in danger.

What is the type of person your character hopes to become? It's probably not something she's thought too much about? But she wants to be someone that her friends and family can rely on. Wants to be the kind of person who can just... figure things out. She's got pretty high expectations of herself given what she's trying to do (change her canon fate).

What is the type of person you hope your character will become? Happy? Happy, honestly. gorse if you wanted her to be happy maybe you should have left her alone after Animus. Just... a bit more able to roll with the punches that life gives her. It's definitely okay for her to be sad about missing her family and things like that. But I don't want it to be as... subconsciously debilitating as it currently feels like it is. Also I feel like she's... losing some of her faith and hope a bit and I really wish she'd get something to sort of re-solidify that.

Do any of the Seven Deadly Sins or Virtues stand out as applicable to your character? Why? None of the sins are a particularly good fit, but for Virtues there's definitely Fortitude. She may be feeling like crap and going through hell but she does not give up easily. That was one of her bigget arc lines in Animus - that no matter what the admins did or tried, that she and the others would never give up on fighting for a future they could believe in.
