My Operator and my Drifter, now together!
Character notes:
Operator is 13, Drifter is 27.
Both are nonbinary and use they/them pronouns. Operator initially didn't realize that was an option, and seized upon it once they were told they could do that.
Operator's highlights faded a little while in stasis.
Both share a strong emotional bond with at least one particular Warframe. Nidus is Drifter's partner, and Nokko is Operator's adopted older brother. They've been through hell together.
Their Warframes show a strong degree of autonomy and personality. They are fully their own characters and cohabitate with Operator and/or Drifter in the orbiter. For them, Transference is less puppeting an empty shell and more sharing control with an individual who has their own will.
Both are notably ambitious and pragmatic with a thirst for secrets, drawn to the mysterious and forbidden.
Both crave connection, belonging, and family after many lonely centuries.
Drifter is fascinated by the Infestation and yearns to transcend their humanity, hoping to find ways to retain their Tenno powers while eventually transforming into a Warframe themself.
Operator is fiercely independent and loathes being talked down to, but they also desperately want the guidance and care of adult role models who actually respect them, after having to essentially raise themself for so long. In the Lotus, Drifter, and their Warframes, they've started to find that.
