✦ Description:

Alexia is a former internal handler in xir system (presumably subject to delta programming due to this former role) who is now a protector. Xi wears long flowing dresses in many shades of purple and with chunky bracelets. Xir species of origin is a robot or other kind of non-human (especially any the system may have epsilon (non-human) programming related to), but xi identifies as human as a kintype. Alexia is meticulous, precise, and logical, and sie can sometimes come off as cold to others in that sie is very good at discussing unpleasant or even triggering facts in a completely neutral and unemotional way. However, sie is brave and protective of hir system, especially individual headmates sie is close to, and good at facing upsetting tasks and realities in a head-on way.

✦ Role performance:

Alexia is now a protector to xir system, which includes maintaining the system's physical safety. This includes assessing risks as they arise, deciding when to stay at or leave places, and (if applicable) managing physical disabilities. Xi also takes on miscellaneous roles that involve doing tasks, fulfilling responsibilities, fronting at work and/or classes, and generally doing things that nobody ever especially wants to do but that need to get done.

✦ Description:

Ulysses is a ghost headmate in a programmed system. in his timeline, he died at the age of 23 and is permanently stuck at that age. He dissociates frequently and feels emotionally numb most of the time, which means he is mostly comfortable discussing the system's programming most of the time. Ulysses has loyalty (gamma) and trapped (eta) programming. It often misses the system's abusers, and it is often attracted to people who remind it of their abusers, whether or not those people are actually abusive. It tends to expect the worst to happen, but it isn't really bothered when things do go badly.
