Blackwood Tales
Elfie Thomas for Rheea Saffron
A Vulperin soldier from another world whose advanced technology appears almost magical to the people of Terinia. Rheea is highly disciplined and tactically trained, but unlike a purely restrained operative, she feels everything deeply and carries intense emotional weight beneath her composed exterior. Her loyalty is absolute once earned, and she protects those she cares about with fierce, unwavering commitment.
She struggles with guilt and responsibility, often placing the burden of others’ safety entirely on herself.
Rheea should sound controlled, but not emotionally distant. Her control comes from discipline, not detachment. Beneath every line is strong emotional investment—loyalty, fear of failure, protectiveness, and attachment all sit just under the surface of her speech.
She is deeply expressive in feeling, but rarely uncontrolled in delivery. When she speaks, it should feel like she is actively holding herself together rather than suppressing emotion entirely. In high-stress moments, cracks should appear as urgency, sharpened tone, or rapid emotional prioritization—not emptiness.
When she cares, it is absolute. That care should be audible even when she tries to mask it with tactical thinking or command structure.

I don’t care what it takes. I will not lose them.
Stay behind me. I can handle this.
If I fail, I don’t get to justify it later. I just don’t fail.
Love the emotionality! I see on your profile you want to play a "snarky spaceship AI." Perhaps you might want to try submitting one for the crimson den? I wouldn't exactly call her snarky, but she fits the other buckets and will definitely have her moments.
