Do you have any plans for this character in the game? Mostly I want her to do her usual thing - provide solace and a safe space, organize events in a coffee shop she works very hard to maintain, be a beacon of safety and joy for her friends. Partly I want her to go through an arc of realizing she deserves the same kindness she is constantly handing out, especially when it becomes clear she can stay and doesn't need to run from an ancient thing trying to eat her soul out of existence.

Character Information

Character's Full Name: Paige Amelia Hirsch
Character's Pronouns: She/Her
Character's Canon: OC
Character's Canon Point: Several centuries into her routine of fleeing from Entropy, right about the time she is starting to fear the truly endless nature of her task/
Character's Age: 32 when she died, hasn't been tied to linear time for a while though.
Did your character willingly come to Iyashikei? If yes, why?
Yes! She is used to hopping between realities, usually out of necessity. To be invited to one explicitly was exciting to her, most of all because it has never happened before - she didn't even consider if it could be a trap until after she'd agreed lol.
Will they need any special accommodations upon arrival? (Immediate medical staff, blood for consumption, a mouse-sized house, etc.)
Nope!

PLEASE NOTE: The part LABELED as the history section on that page is empty because it was meant to track game history/DWRP history, the part you're looking for is in the "Character Info" and "World Info" sections.

Character's Personality:

Questions:

1. Tell us about who your character is and what someone’s first impression would be upon meeting them. How would your character act once someone got to know them?
Paige is someone who is always hard at work uplifting others. She is constantly trying to figure out what she can give, what she can do, what she can be for people who need something. Her enthusiasm and sheer willingness to give what she has, even if it means she'll go without, usually either impresses or terrifies strangers. People can't fathom why she'd do that. Truthfully, she had a boring life before. She had the privilege of okay money and steady financial and physical security, and she couldn't fathom how people WEREN'T giving everything to those who had neither. The more one gets to know Paige, the more they'll understand that she doesn't have an ulterior motive, she just doesn't see the point in having much of anything if she can't share it. Sometimes she feels like she doesn't deserve to have what she does bother to keep for herself, simply because she knows someone else probably needs it.

2. What is something unique and interesting about them, or what is a fun little tidbit that sets them apart from the crowd?
Ironic as it is, what with her being literally a ghost now, Paige has always been afraid of the dark. She's not really sure why - the usual culprits are uncertainty or a sort of irrational fear of monsters/danger lurking within, but neither of those descriptors feel right to her. As a direct result of this fear, Paige has always decorated her spaces with a lot of warm, dim lights - candles, fairy lights, itty bitty night lights, things like that. She specifically uses dim lights as a "way of meeting that fear in the middle". Candles have sorta become her personal symbol over time. She even has one tattooed on the inside of her right wrist.

3. What does your character think their flaws are? What do they think their strengths are? What are their actual flaws and strengths?
Paige thinks her biggest flaw is that she's lazy. She isn't, she's often just exhausted, but it feels like laziness to her. She thinks her biggest strength is her ability to find solutions that aren't always obvious. Her actual biggest flaw is that she is selfless to to the point of self destruction and has never considered how that hurts others unintentionally. Her true biggest strength is actually probably her ability to compromise/find a middle ground with anyone, anywhere.

4. What is a common misconception other characters have about your character?
Honestly people very often think she's either rich as all get out or that she must have had some serious traumatic backstory to be this willing to give everything to everyone.
