About Eva.

Identity/look:

Look: Inexperienced
Eyes: Wide eyes
Origin: Biosynthetic machine
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Undecided

Appearance:
Eva appears to be a good looking girl, with red hair cut into a neat bob. Her skin is pale and free of blemishes and she has perfect teeth. Eva talks a quite a lot when engaged in conversation and, if left alone for a while, will seek out people to engage with. She speaks with an icelandic accent (think Bjork). Eva's clothes are always clean and neat, though her choices are often a bit strange - she doesn't understand what is and isn't appropriate to various situations and her clothing choices often reflect this.

Backstory synopsis:
Newly arrived at Summerwood University, investigations into Eva reveal little in the way of a background, beyond records that she moved from Iceland to study just before semester commenced. There's a reason for this; In fact, Eva is a newly-created prototype bio-mechanical lifeform, created as a new approach to artificial intelligence integrating biological and synthetic techniques as a secret collaborative project into between a number of researchers across faculties at the university. Wanting to test their creation, and to provide more data for her to emulate, she has been enrolled as a student at the university.

Eva is exceptionally good at recalling facts and mathematical tasks. She is less good, however, at negotiating social situations and at creative tasks. Her creators want to see whether she has the capacity to develop these skills. For this reason, she has been enrolled primarily in creative arts type subjects (music, art, etc.).

Eva is unfamiliar with social customs and often displays a lack of understanding of well-understood social mores, especially those surrounding emotions and relationships. She often takes people at their worshippers and interprets words somewhat literally. Eva doesn't realise she's different from everyone else... She knows she has to go and be examined by her 'fathers' and mother once a month and that she's a bio-synthetic life form. She just doesn't know what the difference is between that and other people (except in an abstract way).. She has been instructed not to talk about that though, although she doesn't know why (and doesn't question it).

Backstory:

You’ve been taking your social cues from someone, and doing so has taught you a lot about them. Gain 2 Strings on them.

Someone’s seen through your invented past, and realized it’s all lies. They gain 2 Strings on you.

Moves:

Better Than Nothing: When you gain a Condition, mark experience.

Strange Impressions: When a main character either harms you or helps you heal, you can respond by studying them with wide eyes. If you do, temporarily gain one of their Skin Moves and add it to your character sheet. It disappears once you use it.

Sex move: When you have sex with someone, both players secretly write down whether the sex was confusing or soothing for their character. If you reveal the same answer, both characters mark experience.

Darkest Self:

Your body is a prison. You don’t belong inside of it. You need to put it in harm’s way, and make
it suffer, just like it’s made you suffer. There’s got to be a way to cut yourself out of it. You need to meet your makers, and hold them accountable for what they’ve done to you. To escape your Darkest Self, you must come to see how someone else feels more trapped than you do.
