Scylla
Scylla Quay Holloway
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Much like her mother, Scylla is slight of build. She is, however, unusually fast and strong for her age due to the training regimen her father keeps her on.
Facial Features
Scylla looks exactly like her mother in almost all aspects. Large eyes, small mouth, dainty nose. The one particular difference is Scylla has a small smattering of freckles on her nose.
Identifying Characteristics
The only notable physical trait she gained from her father is the small line of spikes along her spine. Because of this, she avoids wearing anything with an open back.
Special abilities
The same angelic and demonic powers as her mother, as well as vampiric powers she gained from her father.
Apparel & Accessories
Scylla generally wears a skirt or jeans and a loose-fitting blouse. She also owns an immaculate set of black, glittering clothes consisting of a tunic-like shirt and a short skirt. This outfit consists of a strange, incredibly light, metal-esque material that acts as highly effective armor. She bought the outfit using an exorbitant amount of money she stole from her father, but he never had the heart to take it back. She has had it refitted as she has gotten older, and the material has remained in good condition despite the wear.
Specialized Equipment
Scylla has a loud, powerful, hot pink sports car that is built to withstand the brutality of the wasteland with its all-wheel-drive capabilities, thick armor, bulletproof glass, and heavy mounted turret on the hood. She also wields a pair of glittering, golden revolvers that she keeps on her hips.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Scylla was born in an underground military facility somewhere along the Hades Rift. She spent her childhood running rampant through the rebel base under the seemingly ever-present gaze of her mother, Newt. Her father, Donovan, is always incredibly busy, but he makes time for his little girl at least once a week. Unable to venture out on her own from the military base she was raised in, Scylla grew antsy. Sure, it was fun playing with the other kids, mostly kicking their asses at everything they did together. And sure, she got visits to St. Forbes to see Doc and Madame Bluthe, and to Phineas Gage's Fortess to study with Phineas, but those visits were always supervised and she was never allowed outside city walls. So, naturally, Scylla did her best to escape. Eventually, she succeeded, and now she roams St. Forbes to her heart's content just so long as she studies with her tutor Joel.
Update: After the time jump, Scylla is now a bounty hunter. She has an impressive reputation in the West as one of the best bounty hunters around, despite her tender age. A difficult person to pin down, Scylla could be found in any Free Western city at any time, seemingly at random, as she hunts down any target unfortunate enough to attract her gaze.
Sexuality
Scylla isn't a virgin, but neither is she all that sexual of a person. Her romantic ideals are unrealistic at best, which leaves most men wanting. Her parents raised her to expect nothing less than the very best of treatment from her romantic partners. As a result, her romantic history is limited to fooling around with a friend or two here and there, but nothing serious has ever arisen. Her uncanny intuition and suspicious nature make dating difficult, but at least she's never had her heart broken.
Education
Scylla was never formally educated, as such institutions were few and far between. Instead, she was trained almost exclusively by the eccentric Phineas Gage in his greenhouse fortress. Phineas, always delighted to share his vast wealth of knowledge and experience, has given Scylla as close to a well-rounded education as he can. Much like any other sane being, Scylla loves the greenhouse life and stays there as often as possible. Later on, though, she was made to study with Joel Harper in St. Forbes to keep her closer to her parents.
Employment
Scylla found that she had a supernatural knack for tracking people down after Doc was robbed one day in 246, when she was just 16. She found the guy hiding out in Vinesta a few days later, hog-tied him, and dragged him back to Doc's office to face judgement. As time went on, she found herself taking jobs off the bounty board in St. Forbes and completing them with increasing ease. It helps that she is able to use her natural charm and wit, as well as her father's reputation, to gain intel from many sources. She is well-equipped to handle different types of combat, as she got firearm training from her father, hand-to-hand from her sister, and sword-fighting from her mother.
Morality & Philosophy
She is intensely loyal to those close to her and will sacrifice most any of her (admittedly relatively loose) morals for their sake. She doesn't balk at murder or torture, although she prefers other methods for achieving her ends. She inherited her father's ruthlessness, but also her mother's empathy, which makes her one of the more pleasant bounty hunters to be caught by, but she sometimes allows it to tear her apart when things get morally gray. At the end of the day, though, she has a job to do and she gets it done.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Despite her parents being the leaders of the Rebellion, Scylla has little interest in what the Catholic Nation is doing. She has felt her whole life like the war was more important to her parents than Scylla herself, so she avoids the war if she can help it. She is motivated by the desire not only to prove herself to her parents but to prove herself better than them as well. She wants to surpass them both in combat prowess and renown, but she hasn't quite figured out how she's going to accomplish that. She strives to make a name for herself outside of being the daughter of the two most powerful people in the West.
Likes & Dislikes
Scylla likes flashy things that draw the attention her way, whether it be a fancy car, a stunning outfit, or a weapon that packs just the right amount of punch. Everything she does, she does in style. She gets bored easily and doesn't like to spend too much time in one place.
Social
Religious Views
Scylla believes in God, but she doesn't worship him. Rather, she challenges, rebels against, and sometimes even abhors him. He made the celestials to protect the humans but wasn't around to protect the celestials from anything else. She doesn't necessarily think God is malicious, but she considers The Apocalypse to be a result of his gross negligence.
Social Aptitude
Scylla is charismatic and confident. She has a natural charm about her that makes most people more than willing to talk to her. She is adaptable and able to appear comfortable in most any situation. However, she doesn't take kindly to being told what to do, and criticism, when taken seriously, has a notable negative impact on her demeanor. Her ego, while large, is also fragile. She is polite and well-mannered when the situation calls for it, but can also be irreverent and crass. While not overtly sexual, Scylla has adopted a sort of casually flirtatious attitude.
Hobbies & Pets
She has a pet shark bunny, whom she named Chompette, and she takes care of a hellhound named Chai, whose owner, Lexie, vanished six and a half years ago.
Speech
She swore far too much as a child, but has somewhat grown out of that since.
