THE SOVEREIGN facts

. name: utp . age: 20-30 . gender identity & pronouns: f or nb (female-aligned) . occupation: utp

backstory

you come to the world blue, gasping for air. it’s your first minutes on earth and you’re already reaching for something you can’t have. you grow up hungry, the daughter of descendants of an oil tycoon, and a beauty pageant queen. you can feel the town eat from the palm of your hand, your rosy cheeks, doe eyes and charming smile persuading anyone to fulfill your every whim. you lacked nothing, and yet, you found yourself dissatisfied. you were born with a spark inside of you that manifested into a wildfire. leaving town was never an option - you stayed, willingly, knowing this was your kingdom to claim. but still, still you want more.  there’s a thirst for excitement and power you’ve been looking to satiate as of late, something that cannot be accessed through your family’s renown or their money. nothing’s stopping you - not that it ever has - so... what are you waiting for?

connections

. the gregarious  » you were in high school almost at the same time, and hung out with similar kinds of people. in a way, you envied their success, but now you know that you’re both looking to change your circumstances. you were enemies once, but you can’t help but see yourself in them. you’ve found yourself developing a desire to become close with them. perhaps you’re not as cold-hearted as you thought. 

. the mystic » ugh, please. can’t they just drop the whole fantastical mumbo jumbo? you’ve always supported the idea that it’s you who decides your course, your fate. you don’t need some faux crystal balls or dirty tarot cards to tell you what you already know.

THE SLEUTH facts

. name: utp . age: 30-40 . gender identity & pronouns: utp . occupation: journalist, detective, or anything with an investigative character to it

backstory

although you were not born in blackpine, you fit the town like a glove. you were born with dreams that extended beyond the horizon, with unparalleled thirst for adventure and a wanderlust that consumed you like wildfire. as children do, you wanted to do everything at once. you ended up settling for law enforcement when entering high school, and even enlisted in training. however, you became stuck afterwards. your ambition seemed to halt, and you took on a desk job that made you feel more miserable with each passing minute. the word reached your ears that a young woman had gone missing in a town nearby, and you jumped at the opportunity. you’ve shown up to try crack the case, even though you may or may not be properly qualified. what can you say? your curiosity got ahold of you. you should remember, however, that curiosity killed the cat. who’s to say you won’t end up a fiasco?

connections

. the grief-stricken  » a source of interest. you don’t think they had anything to do in their sister’s disappearance, but you can never be too certain. you know it’ll be tricky to become close with them, but they’re your best shot at trying to learn more about this abigail girl. if you have to get to know their defensive brother, then so be it. 

. the bibliomaniac » you’ve gotten to know them thanks to your frequent visits to the library. you always wind up there to browse through archives and old newspapers, whatever makes you feel you’re getting closer to finding an answer. you can sense them peering over your shoulders as you read, but you pay it no mind. you make sure to pay her back for letting you in after it’s closed with a hot cup of coffee from cosmic ray’s.

THE GREGARIOUS facts

. name: utp . age: 20-30 . gender identity & pronouns: f or nb (female-aligned) . occupation: utp

backstory

you think it a bit cliché to put it in the following world, but growing up, the world was your oyster. you were born the daughter to the mayor of blackpine, and went onto do great things that gained you quite the reputation. you were cheerleader captain, student council president, and class valedictorian. nowadays you fear thinking back to these simpler, more generous times, feeling that you’ll get caught up trying to determine whether everything came thanks to your hard-work or to your surname only. there’s always been a drive inside of you, a need to bring others to their knees and kick back twice as hard. you never lacked anything up until now, long after your dad’s office term finished and he passed away. you found that the real world was far less merciful, and on the worst nights, you can’t help but question whether you’re actually made for it, or whether you’ve only convinced yourself to think that you are. 

connections

. the fervour  » you were high school sweethearts who broke up the week after prom night. yours was an ardent connection, but you both burned too brightly and ended up burning yourselves and the other. now things between you are somewhat awkward. will you ever be able to talk like you used to?

. the sovereign  » oh, how you hated that bitch back then. they were too arrogant for your taste, parading their luxuries around when you knew you were better than them at everything. you may’ve not been as wealthy as they were, and yet, you ended up the same way: reaching for something you couldn’t have. perhaps once you get over your anger and stubborness, the two of you could be friends... or perhaps, something a tad more intimate.

background (violence tw)

the world has rarely been kind to you. three children came after you, and after your dad walked out on all of you, your single mother was left to support the large family through odd jobs and unconventional shifts. you had the potential to excel at school, yet you didn’t. you thought yourself untouchable, unstoppable. then your mother and oldest sibling were in a car crash that took his life and left her bed-ridden, and for once, life stopped smiling back at you. you made some phonecalls joined blackpine’s underground fight club, quickly establishing yourself as the supreme winner. you were able to support your family with the earnings. it wasn’t clean money, but at least it was money. you kept going and going, even after you payed off the bills and bought them a new house in the more affluent part of town. you’re still fighting, not knowing why. you’ve been at war with the world for so long, you fear you might no longer know when to call it quits. 

connections

. the gregarious » an old love of yours. you loved them back then and you love them now, though in a different way. they seemed to understand your need to claw your way out, though they hated seeing you corrupt your innocence and stain your hands with someone else’s blood. perhaps they’re too gentle for your rough edges, but you secretly hope you can get past it to at least be able to look at them in the eyes once more.

. the conspiracy theorist » something about the whole ‘nerd’ gimmick they’ve got going on exhausts you. you appreciate them trying not to follow the status quo, but their tendency to question everything and everyone gets on your nerves.
