alina starkov (shadow & bone)

Character Name & Journal: alina starkov ([personal profile] sunmon)
Guild Affiliation: probably sticking unaffiliated for the time being
Plot/CR Hooks:
teenager — she will be attending the metahuman high school, much to her dismay, and will be failing every class because she comes from fantasy tsarist russia what the fuck is chemistry???
weird dud? — she continues to pretend she doesn't really have powers from the confluence because she is used to being the sun summoner being a target on her back. please feel free to call her out or corner her into situations where power use is a must.
negative nancy — she's pretty distrustful of the whole situation here and ready to tell anyone that the guilds' attitude is too good to be true because, again, fantasy tsarist russia. NOTHING CAN BE GOOD.

Character Motivations: alina wants power so she can feel in control of her own life, and she wants power/prestige so that she can feel loved and accepted when she has always been rejected. however, she also wants to shirk the responsibility that comes with her power, and she wants to survive.

Potential Roles:
alina makes a good Jealous Rival for any kind of status marker, so bring on the competition.

she's here to be a good listener to your character's problems, but can also be a selfish clueless teenager who makes people feel worse.

most of all, she's a corruptable youth who makes a decent protege but not a good sidekick because she wants the spotlight for herself.
