Player: Shana | antivillain Character: Georgia Mason Canon: Newsflesh, prooobably book 1 (Feed), but I'm indecisive Age: 22 Bio Blurb:(cw: adopted sibling incest, zombie plague that's way too accurate) Haaaa it must be nice having canons with wikis. Georgia and her brother Shaun were orphans of the zombie Rising that destroyed a third of the world's population and changed the world forever... but didn't end it. They grew up in a world where everything was constantly sanitized and people feared gathering in large crowds and this book came out in 2010 it wasn't meant to be this prescient.
ANYWAY Shaun and George were adopted by Stacy and Michael Mason, two of the earliest bloggers of the apocalypse. They grew up in a house that cared about ratings above all else and could only count on love from their parents when there were cameras to monetize it. They only had each other for unconditional love, and that led to them growing up extremely codependent. They were each others' best friend and, eventually, romantic partners. That part would not have played well for their parents' cameras.
They got into the blogging business too, with Georgia as the intrepid newsie, digging up facts and exposing secrets, and Shaun as an Irwin, poking zombies for fun and profit. They and their friend Buffy (a fictional, bringing poetry and porn to the people to distract them from the terrible status of the world) got a job following a presidential candidate during his run for office. It was meant to be the gig that made their careers. And it did. It's just that they happened to stumble on a massive government conspiracy that killed Buffy and, eventually, killed Georgia as well. She got the truth out before she died, though, and told the world to rise up while they could.
Personality Blurb: Obsessed with the truth. Georgia carries a gun around all the time but she won't use it if she can talk her way out of something. Her most important weapon is the truth, and she knows how to find it and how to use it. She's unerringly loyal to those she cares about but bad at expressing it. She's bad at expressing most emotions that aren't irritation, though a lot of that is intentional. Georgia cares very, very deeply about everything, and that's a big part of why she works so damn hard to bring the truth to light. She truly believes her words with the strength of the truth backing them up can change the world.
Preferred Essence(s): danananananananananananananana BATMAN. Probably. Since the mods said it was viable and I LOVE THE IDEA. Especially because while she and Batman share some qualities (dedication to JUSTICE, extreme intelligence) she is not in general a fan of vigilantes and even less a fan of keeping your identity (OR ANYTHING ELSE) a secret.
Looking For: ideas of where to go/possibly other ideas?? Some essence of a character obsessed with truth be good too
Appearance: Short dark brown hair, sunglasses, a scowl. She tends to dress as practically as possible and might be allergic to color. She does tend to wear some jewelry which is only surprising if you don't realize they all have hidden cameras and microphones in them.
Abilities: Mostly, begrudgingly, her physical abilities are going to get a massive boost and she'll suddenly be amazing at parkour.
Quirks: A tendency to find herself brooding on the nearest rooftop if she's not paying attention.
Goal: she is such a great character to dig into any mysteries because she REALLY WANTS TO KNOW.
