Sarah Goldham
Sarah Goldham (a.k.a. Scissor)
Anime peeps who use scissors as weapons are stupid because, unlike Sara Goldham, they don't separate the scissors into separate blades for dual wielding. That said this gorl is slightly bonkers for a few reasons and ultimately ends up being a self-destroying antagonist.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
She's a drug addict who has been ending up in frequent violent encounters from a young age and has generally always been malnourished.
Body Features
Scars are plentiful.
Facial Features
She looks like an aged up version of Himiko Toga but with a tattoo above her left eye.
Identifying Characteristics
A birthmark on her ankle with looks like a wobbly half-moon. All Gen 1 Population Program products have such a birth mark.
Physical quirks
Lefty who regularly bites her lips and the insides of her cheeks and scratches her wrists, especially around the scars.
Special abilities
When on certain drugs, she becomes especially dangerous as her reflexes etc are greatly heightened (don't do drugs, kids). Those nanobots that are meant to be making her more fertile (but there's only so much they can do when the drugs she's taken have negatively impacted her ability to pass on those genes so thoroughly) are re-programmed for a little something else but that's already spoiler territory (8-5-1-12-9-14-7 1-2-9-12-9-20-9-5-19).
Apparel & Accessories
She wears whatever she can steal out of dumps so mostly cheap hoodies and the like.
Specialized Equipment
Has a toast-cutting knife (toasts the bread as you cut through it) that she turned into a anything-cutting knife (by replacing much of the blade with tungsten and upping the temperature massively) that she always keeps hidden somewhere on her. She didn't make this herself but took it off of someone who she whacked over the head with a broken chair.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
During the simulations of the Population Program, she was raised in a dysfunctional AI family. The simulation ended with them all perishing in a tornado. This was, however, a simulation to make sure she was unaware of her clone-ness.
She was flung right into an orphanage where she acquired herself a nice little collection of scars on her back due to the nasty behavior and curiosity with regards to sharp objects of many of the other children in the orphanage (around 60% of whom were also Gen 1 products of the Population Program and most of the others gens 2, 3 or 4). The staff at orphanages like these were generally outnumbered 100 or more to 1 and so, even in the occasional cases of them actually caring, couldn't do much about how straight-up awful children can be when allowed to do whatever they like and not taught things like empathy and kindness. It was while she was here she got into self harm, eventually becoming both a massacist and a sadist.
When she was 12 she was moved into the "care" of her "5th cousin once removed" (population program muckery) who utilized her as a means of acquiring money (theft, hustling, begging, the loss of a kidney and, at 13 and 14, prostitution (*vomits*)) and venting out frustrations through physical and verbal abuse. Yay, because the best part is that she secretly skimmed the top off of all the drugs for her own use as what started out as curiosity but quickly became escape from her fairly dodgy situation.
Once she was 15 years old she was outta there and right into the criminal world again as part of a pirate group where she could have all the drugs she wanted because pirates make their own drugs and she almost died from overdosing... twice. Despite this, the pirates kept her because she was brilliant at intimidation killing (killing one person on the ship you're raiding in front of everyone else to make sure they're too terrified to fight back) as she was brilliant at both making sure the person couldn't kill her and making sure they died both painfully, loudly and messily. When they tried to stop her from having access to the drugs, she ended up having to retreat through an escape pod as all but 7 of the pirates (who were dead) were firing at her with very big guns.
A few weeks later, she learned of the CHG's plans to allow private companies to add things to the VR Net in the Horus Ring and knew of exactly one thing that would definitely be uploaded on the the VR Net as a result: the feeling of taking drugs. No longer destroying her body to feed her habits? Check. Not losing every penny she acquired to get high? Check. The potential to feel the same level of high as someone overdosing with no threat to her life? Check. After gaining the money to travel to the Horus Ring through... methods... she went there. It was after entering the VR Net that she found that the "what it's like to snort weed through your butt" and similar servers were shut down and she was trapped in the VR Net by the GTO. Yikes.
Gender Identity
Either a gorl, or everything at once, or nothing, or her own thing. It's very difficult to tell.
Sexuality
Bisexual. Possibly sexually attracted to violence. And chairs. She gets in very weird positions when sitting on chairs.
Education
Hahahahahahahahahahahahah none in academic fields but she's good at theft, murder, torture and other basic life skills.
Employment
Tool of money-making by foster parent -> pirate -> general criminal activity in streets -> stuff in the VR Net.
Accomplishments & Achievements
Getting picked for being removed from the orphanage because of her involvement in so much violence. Escaping her fake distant relative. Landing tonnes of kills, except mostly against people who were either unarmed or not even fighting back.
Failures & Embarrassments
Travelling numerous light years just to get high only to get stuck in a limbo with no access to getting high. Getting so thoroughly addicted to drugs.
Mental Trauma
Her fake simulated family that she thinks was real dying in front of her simulated eyes in a simulated tornado, the orphanage she was at was basically a re-enactment of The Lord of the Flies with her going from Piggy But Less Dead to Jack But Even Worse over the years there, an abusive foster parent who put her in nasty situations for their own benefit, having to kill people while working for the pirates (worsening her addictions) until she finally crossed that line of being able to turn off her empathy and even enjoying the killing and maiming. Some weird stuff goes on in the VR Net but that's spoiler territory.

Morality & Philosophy
She's a sadist and a massacist who has very little concept of right or wrong due to an utterly despicable upbringing by the adults who should've been taking care of her.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Getting high and getting sadistic/massacistic pleasure from causing pain to herself and others.
Savvies & Ineptitudes
Very good at theft, killing, torture, maiming, etc. Very bad at more or less any other life skill.
Likes & Dislikes
Likes: drugs and maiming and killing and teddy bears and drugs.
Dislikes: making good life choices and "weak shit" and letting others decide things for her.
Virtues & Personality perks
I struggle to think of anything good that she starts out with. Quick to act, I guess.
Vices & Personality flaws
Impatient, addicted to drugs, overconfident, narcissistic, selfish, violent, cruel, has no moral compass, etc.
Personality Quirks
One eye closes slower than the other but don't worry that's just the drugs.
Hygiene
She's filthy in body as well as mind.
Social
Contacts & Relations
*sniffs around* aw jeez Rick, I can only smell the ashes and smoke of all these burned bridges.
Family Ties
Ha no.
Religious Views
Doesn't care.
Social Aptitude
Her only concept of how to make someone like you is pressing herself against someone with a grin on her face because that usually made bullies in the orphanage and her foster parent just push her to the ground and stop smashing her face in.
Mannerisms
Usually has a hand in her hair when talking. Pulls and clenches fist when stressed/angry AF, wiggles fingers when in a good mood.
Hobbies & Pets
She ate a cat once if that counts.
Speech
Voice regularly cracks and sounds like if Himiko Toga chainsmoked in her spare time.

Frank
History
Sarah has a thing for redheads with ridiculously pale skin, apparently. Probably because they don't have souls. Also likes to compare herself to Cally but they both clearly went in different directions in response to the abuse they suffered. But in truth the attraction is based off of Cally being directly in front of Sarah when Sarah successfully screwed with the VR Net systems to get herself high and has attached the idea of Cally to the feeling of being high.
Relationship Reasoning
Sarah's weird.
Commonalities & Shared Interests
None it's not a relationship that would ever work you disgusting shippers.
Shared Secrets
None.
Shared Acquaintances
Everyone in the VR Net except that Cally actually leaves good impressions most of the time and Sarah is just an abnormally small thug.
