OC master post:
I'll put everything under a readmore and I'll update this post as I think of more with my Drifter and Operator
Drifter:
Name: Actually just uses "Drifter"
Pronouns: She/her/they (Just rolls with whatever people call her but uses "her" out of habit)
Quiet and adaptable, will snark and show a morbid sense of humor, has a more withdrawn nature and will deflect with death jokes to avoid the more emotional moments. Runs hard on a sense of Debt and Duty, while also being a worry-wort. She has fears of abandonment, low self-esteem and is convinced that the Operator is better than her even though they're fairly evenly matched in different ways.
As for appearance, her hair is usually unkempt, she prefers practical clothing over style (Quincy had a challenge on his hands with her), she also tends towards keeping as much of herself covered as possible which hides the rather large scar she has from her first execution from which she has tendrils of void corrosion spreading out across her body. The spread has decreased and thinned quite a bit since she escaped Duviri but it regressed the most once she found her place in 1999.
Sorrow was the emotion loop she was most tied with while Joy is the one she most unsettled by, and Vazarin is her focus school of choice with Madurai as her second. She also leans more towards the Lua side of the alignment chart. Her preferred lore frame is Kullervo.
Operator
Name: Mara/Ayantan
Pronouns: She/Her
Direct and to the point. Mara is much more confident than Drifter in many things except for Drifter herself ironically. Mara feels insecure about how easily Drifter found a role for herself in the New War after her own "Failure" when it started and while she agreed that Drifter was the one to finish the War, that decision plus lingering trauma from the death of their older siblin on the Zariman has resulted in a Mara having a one-sided frostiness in their relationship.
Mara takes herself quite seriously to 'make up' for her younger apparent age and detests being seen as a child (even though she is). She finds comfort in routine and her duties to the Lotus but Umbra has become a father figure she will lean on when no one is around to see her falter. Mara also puts more effort into appearing 'proper' as was drilled into her through her training by the Orokin.
Mara's preferred focus schools are Zenerik primary and Madurai secondary with Umbra as her preferred lore frame. Mara leans more towards Sol on the alignment chart.
