[PTabbedContent][PTab=GENERAL INFORMATION] CHARACTER INFO: NAME: Darcy Anne Lewis ALIAS: Sometimes people leave off the last syllable of her name. Does that count? AGE: 26 years young OCCUPATION: Student [SHIELD Academy of Communications] MEMBER GROUP: Civilians POWERS AND ABILITIES: N/A PLAYBY: Kat Dennings OOC INFO: PLAYER NAME: Aech AGE: Also 26! GENDER: Female TIMEZONE: PST OTHER CHARACTERS: Natalia Romanova a.k.a. Black Widow Anna Marie a.k.a. Rogue Maureen Evans a.k.a. Morrigan Alflyana Alflysdottir [/PTab][PTab=PERSONNEL ASSESSMENT] PERSONALITY ASSESSMENT: LIKES: Social Media...most of it, anyways “Twitter is stupid, and Instagram is Twitter for people who can’t read.” Dr. Pepper “The best kind of Doctor is the kind that I can put in my mouth… Wait, don’t quote me on that!” Friends “Where would I be without you guys? Oh, right, among the masses of other people who don’t hang out with hot Asgardians on a daily basis. Yeah, I’m definitely glad we’re friends.” Men “Preferably Asgardian, but hey, I’ll take any guy with washboard abs and an accent!” Junk food “Chocolate is one of the main food groups, right?” DISLIKES: Old men without clothes “Most people just use a hat for thinking, Doc...” Nutritionally valuable foods “Why are you trying to make me eat a tree? What? Broccoli? No… This is a miniature tree. No wonder we’re running out of oxygen here on Earth so quick!” Science “It’s not that I don’t like it… I just don’t understand it, and I’d rather watch Netflix than try to catch up to your level.” Rich Bitches “Uh oh… Looks like someone got a little too much Prada in their Gucci, if you know what I mean…” Being underestimated and underpaid “I should not be left in charge of stuff like this; I don’t get paid enough. I don’t get paid, period!” STRENGTHS: Independent Darcy is a lot more resourceful than most people give her credit for. Growing up with a severe lack of parental guidance helped her to become exceptionally independent. Of course, it also meant she didn’t have to deal with a lot of discipline if she played on the computer too long. Computers The longer she spent playing with computers, the more adept she became with them. She spent part of her sophomore year in college as a campus PI, hacking into students’ social media accounts to help them find out if their significant others were cheating on them. Nowadays, she’s moved on to bigger fish, but to be honest, it’s just more of a hobby than a passion. CPR She’s been certified since age 12, when she started babysitting the neighbor kids. She found that by babysitting other people’s children, she didn’t have to deal with one of her own. Besides, it helped keep more money in her parents’ pocket. Every two years, she still goes to a class to get re-certified. It’s kind of a tradition, more than a job necessity these days, though. Observant Even when her mouth is running a mile a minute, Darcy’s brain is capable of continuing to calculate what’s going on around her. For instance, she’s perfectly aware of the fact that most people whom she encounters, think she’s nothing more than a ditzy girl. Needless to say, she loves proving them wrong. WEAKNESSES: Asgardian Men Seriously - have you seen those guys?! Motor Mouth Sometimes, Darcy gets just a little bit carried away and lets her mouth cross the line her brain knows is there. Squishy! Just like a vast majority of the Earth’s population, Darcy is just a mere mortal. Bullets, knives, and anything else utilized as a weapon can - and will - hurt her (or kill her outright). Lack of oxygen also does the trick, along with a myriad of other atrocities we won’t go into for the sake of Darcy’s sanity… GOALS: Graduate college “Neither of my parents finished, so I guess that means I have to, right?” Start a family of her own “I just want to find a nice guy and settle down...but not until I’m like, way older...well, I mean, not too old…” Write a book, maybe? “The Marvelous Adventures of Thor and Jane! Wait… That would make me the spunky puppy sidekick, wouldn’t that? Dangit! Nevermind!” FEARS: Darcy is easily spooked, but not easily frightened. Giant, killer robots definitely instill a healthy amount of fear within her little human heart, of course, but hey - who wouldn’t be scared of that? At the end of the day, though, Darcy’s biggest fear is failure. Failure to do her parents proud; failure to succeed in school; failure to be the person Agent Coulson believes she can be; and failure to find love are just a few examples of the fears that haunt her mind. OVERALL PERSONALITY: Darcy is an “interesting young Midgardian”, or at least that’s what Thor tells her...on a daily basis… If we’re going to get a bit more descriptive, though, we’re going to need to use the words “outgoing”, “observant”, and of course “stubborn”... Needless to say, what she lacks in fashion sense, she more than makes up for in personality. Generally speaking, Darcy is a very social girl. She doesn’t have that natural fear of talking to strangers that some people are cursed with, but that’s probably because she doesn’t have any kind of fear of talking whatsoever. If there ever was a part of her brain that filtered what came out of her mouth, it’s long since been destroyed. This sometimes makes her seem a bit rude when her opinion doesn’t match that of everyone else in the vicinity, but hey - she’s got the right to free speech, just the same as everyone else. It’s not her fault they choose to keep quiet and “save face”. Those who know Darcy, know that her mouth, while often the cause of whatever trouble she gets in, is mostly harmless. If sarcasm were a true language, she’d be fluent enough in it to teach it. Of course, this lack of filter also sometimes makes her seem crazy. When no one is around, she has a penchant for talking to herself. Despite her outspoken nature, however, Darcy is an exceptionally bright girl. She’s a Political Science major who got accepted as an intern for an astrophysicist, after all... Never mind that she was the only applicant. It’s a matter of pride to her that she beat out all of the other astrophysicists in their own field! Even though she’s not a true “scientist”, she’s done a damn fine job as an assistant to one. She may not understand everything that passes as conversation between Dr. Selvig and Jane, but on more than one occasion, she’s been the one to notice something they didn’t. Needless to say, she definitely earned her weight’s worth in credits working for the pair of them… Well, six credits, at least… Oh, and did we mention she got accepted into the prestigious SHIELD Academy of Communications? That right there should prove her level of intelligence on its own. When the internship first began, there was no way in heaven, hell, Asgard, Midgard, or any of the other ‘gards that she would have put her life on the line for either of her co-workers. In the past few years, as her friendship with Jane blossomed, and her respect for Dr. Selvig grew (except for that one time when she saw him pantsless and automatically docked him 10 respect points), she’s since reconsidered her stance on that matter. Hell, she actually did put her life on the line that one time, with the giant, killer robot! Needless to say, she’s got the “loyal friend” thing down pat. Jane’s acceptance of her for all of her flaws and quirks definitely helped bolster the relationship, especially since it never would have existed if she hadn’t. Darcy is well aware that people either love her or hate her. That being said, she’s perfectly content with who she is, and has no plans on changing that anytime soon just for the prospect of gaining one new friend. HISTORICAL OVERVIEW: BIRTHPLACE: Roanoke, Virginia RESIDENCE: New York City, New York PARENTS: GRAHAM LEWIS|52|FATHER|ALIVE SUSAN LEWIS|50|MOTHER|ALIVE SIBLINGS: None IMPORTANT RELATIVES: None IMPORTANT PERSON: Dr. Jane Foster - Best Friend extraordinaire Thor Odinson - Best Friend’s boyfriend Dr. Erik Selvig - Best Friend’s boss Agent Phil Coulson (a.k.a. Son of Coul) - SHIELD recruiter OVERALL HISTORY: Darcy was born the only daughter of Graham and Susan Lewis. All in all, her childhood was decently mediocre. Both of her parents positions at the hospital as CNA’s, and the pair of them worked hard day in and day out to see to it that their daughter never wanted for anything. What they didn’t realize, unfortunately, that the only thing Darcy ever truly craved was their attention. As the years went by, Darcy grew accustomed to the quick family breakfasts, and the babysitter that was there, waiting for her after school. In hindsight, it wasn’t terrible. Due to their tenure at the hospital, both parents had weekends off, which they devoted to family time. When she turned 12, Darcy decided she was tired of dealing with babysitters, and so she drew up a plan to get rid of them once and for all. A few printed articles about how to learn CPR were the only exhibits she needed for the presentation she offered her parents. In under a week’s time, she was attending a small seminar at the local YMCA on how to resuscitate a person who’d stopped breathing. It was an amazingly intense and enlightening course for a young lady, but she passed with flying colors. Now that she was certified to save a life, she was certified to babysit others, and thus, herself. Even from such a young age, she knew that she wanted to go to college, and so most of her babysitting profits went towards her future tuition fund. What she was not aware of, however, was the fact that her parents were also stocking up. For every afternoon of babysitting they no longer had to pay for, they now put that money into a separate bank account, specifically for Darcy’s future. Puberty hit during her freshman year, and Darcy quickly found herself gaining more attention from the opposite sex than she’d ever received in her life. Of course, all the attention could also have been due to the colorful nature of her hair. Indeed, she had reached her teenage rebellion phase. Thankfully for her parents, this phase did not include sex, drugs, and rock’n’roll. Well, there were no drugs, at least… In the entire student body of her high school, there was only one boy who seemed genuinely interested in her for who she was, rather than for the size of her chest. The pair dated on and off throughout their high school career, but when it came time to think about the future, neither one of them could picture the other at their side. They still remain friends on Facebook, but both have moved on with their lives. Soon enough, it was time to pick a college. As intensely thoughtful as she’d been at age 12, she now realized she had no clue what to do. The medical field had never called to her, probably due to the knowledge that even the low-ranking nurses had to work 12 hour days… No thank you! Finding a school was more than a little daunting, but in the end, she finally decided on Culver University. After so much effort put into finding the right school, she decided against bothering when it came to a major. In the end, she jumped on the Political Science bandwagon merely by chance. Still, she was a stubborn girl, and so rather than flip-flopping like so many other college students, she gave the subject her all. It wasn’t until her last year that she finally started to get a bit burned out. Rather than searching for something in her own major for a few extra credits, she decided to apply for an internship under astrophysicist Jane Foster. She nailed the interview, but only because she was the only applicant and Foster was desperate. Still, despite her lack of knowledge in the realm of astrophysics...or astros...or physics… she managed to earn her college credits. Her keen powers of observation, and her knack for thinking outside the box slowly but surely swayed her into Jane Foster and her colleague, Dr. Erik Selvig’s good graces. Her natural charm eventually won Jane over, and the two became more than just colleagues - they became good friends. One foggy night, while on a mission to New Mexico, the trio of astrophysicists (well, two astrophysicists and their assistant) encountered an anomaly never witnessed before. In the zero visibility weather, Jane ended up driving the van straight into a large man, much to everyone’s fright. When he got up, apparently unharmed, Darcy found herself more than a little on edge. His neurotic shouting finally tipped her over the precipice and she tased him until he was unconscious. Feeling more than a little guilty, the three of them brought the unidentified man to the hospital. Perhaps a good, clean After a lot of arguing amongst themselves, a home err… lab robbery by SHIELD (which she never did get her iPod back from), and more than a few close calls on her life in such a short span of time, Darcy decided that this man - Thor, the God of Thunder, Prince of Asgard - was a pretty alright dude. He would definitely be better boyfriend material for Jane than Donald Blake ever had. If only he would stay. on. Earth! As the dust settled - literally… New Mexico is basically 99% dust with a smidge of tumbleweed - and Jane moved on to other projects, Darcy found herself 6 credits in the positive, but 0 ideas as to what to do. Graduation came and went, and she shook the University President’s hand along with all of her other classmates, but nothing in the job market around her area really ticked her fancy. So, rather than try to earn a second degree - this one in astrophysics - she did the next best thing: called the man who’d stolen her iPod. Phil Coulson had contacted her shortly after the New Mexico incident in regards to her future, but still in the heat of the moment after an alien attack, she blew it off at first. With a degree under her belt, and a reference in her hand, though, she did as he suggested and applied to SHIELD’s Academy of Communications. Her first year was a whirlwind of information. It was like college on crack, and as rough as it was, she adored every minute of it. Coulson helped when he could, which she greatly appreciated (especially since she found him sort of attractive in a “too old to date, but not too old to be creepy” way). She’s in her second year with the school now, and amped up for the knowledge and opportunities it will provide her with… [/PTab][PTab=IMAGE][/PTab][/PTabbedContent={width:485px;border:0px;margin-left:-2px;}] |
