hullo all!! short player intro first: i'm evie and i like dinosaurs and today i'm bringing you the first watch this space for future disposables of my characters, my main gal elise.
elise is a bit of a firecracker. she's twenty years old, a uk resident who has lived half her life in yorkshire and the other half in london (giving her a bit of a funny accent) and is two thirds of the way through an earth sciences degree at ucl. she's a boxer, a smartass, and the very definition of gryffindor. the initial plan was to head to costa rica for a holiday with her uni friends. she was flying alone because she was coming straight from a short internship in america and planning to meet her friends at their resort. but. uh. well.
she's the sort of girl who has some leadership ability: works well under pressure, is physically very fit, can think on her feet. but she's a bit too hot-headed and young to take on such a role and will be dependent on others on the island for emotional support, so i can see her fashioning herself as more of a quirky sidekick/co-captain to any leader who might emerge in the group.
i'm up for all and any kinds of plot, so please do hit me up with any ideas. some ideas i have floating about involve finding people her own age (i've spied a few about and i imagine she'd naturally gravitate towards them), people she might clash with, and older characters that might take her under their wing and/or help her balance out some of her stronger emotions.
i'm also in the middle of writing an open starter for those nearer the back of the plane - elise is in 40f and i'm planning that she has a bit of trouble with her seatbelt, so anybody near her or within shouting distance who might want to help/freak out/be stuck in their own seat is more than welcome to tag in or plot here!
