CHARACTER
Name: Alice "Daisy" Tonner
True Name: Daisy Tonner
Canon: The Magnus Archives (MAG 158, Panopticon, just before she fully gives into the Hunt) + CRAU from Sail itself
Age: 36
History: Wiki Link
"CRAU" history: Daisy was on a previous excursion alongside a bunch of other murderous bastards that later became the hoard of ghosts trying to take over this voyage. During her original voyage on the boat she didn't make friends so much as she made enemies (hi, Omori, Chase, Billy, Ginger, etc.), though she developed a sense of mutual respect with a few people over time. She didn't really care about this lack of real friends, especially once her partner from home turned up; this co-dependency with Basira only got worse over time, too, though it also made her more bearable to be around long-term (unless you're Pickles, who got Hunted for hitting on Basira).
She won at least one Battle Royale in her time, killed countless people, and generally Got Worse out of a need to survive the cutthroat atmosphere. The Captain's violent games encouraged all her worst habits. The only person she refused to hurt was Basira, and against all odds she managed not to. Of course, she also couldn't ultimately protect her from Jenny slitting all of their throats and ending the voyage there.
Then: October event. She woke up in Crabb's body, half-killed Shi Qingxuan so a ghost could hop in, helped investigate a murder done by one of her fellow ghosts and only got busted three days later (by three different people in an hour) for forgetting her host was cockney, got lectured a couple times by Erin about Doing Better, and generally tried to lay low until they could act. Ultimately, she made it to the party without having her cover totally blown but made the mistake of going after Johnny first; he fought back, and Erin finished her off Grendel style. Now, she's back! A little further ahead in her home timeline and not exactly happy to be back, or to be alive.
Powers/Abilities: Daisy is technically human. Technically. In actuality, she's an Avatar of the Hunt, though as of her canon point she's been metaphysically starving herself. In practice, for her this means:
- She's inhumanly strong, capable of tearing people and fully realised Avatars who are much stronger than people apart with seemingly her bare hands.
- She's got inhuman endurance, healing quicker than most people, being able to run for faster and longer. Normally, she would be anywhere from extremely hard to impossible to kill for most people (normal humans seemingly can't kill avatars at all) but obviously she'd be able to die here.
- She has better senses than normal humans. Sight, scent and hearing especially. She can sniff out monsters, people, etc. all to make her a better hunter.
- Sharp teeth like a predator's, nails sharp like claws.
Inventory: Normal set of clothes (comfortable sweater with daisies on, tank top under it, sturdy pair of jeans, shoes, earrings, etc). Her mobile phone, portable charger and earphones. A hunting knife. A loaded pistol and extra magazine. Totally empty analogue tape recorder just to make her squint.
Job History:
Road Policing Unit -
- Traffic cop.
- Monitoring speeds, behaviour on the road.
- Questioning and arresting people.
- Giving warnings.
Section 31 Detective -
- Dealing with reported supernatural incidents.
- Killing vampires when they're reported.
- Keeping supernatural incidents out of public knowledge.
Hunt Avatar -
- Killing other avatars.
- Killing monsters.
'Employee' of the Magnus Archives -
- Hunting on Elias's orders.
- Protecting the Archives from other avatars.
- Providing input on some of Jon's statement reads.
- Resisting the call of the Hunt.
Suppressions:
- The Hunt. Both as in the actual desire to hunt, and the influence of the entity. She's been suppressing her desire to return to the Hunt for months at this canon point but has just made the decision to give into it to protect her partner and other colleagues. It's in some ways like a supernatural addiction. So... hit and miss.
- Fear of losing who she is. She doesn't know who she is without the Hunt and has been struggling with that just as much as the actual bloodlust, because the Hunt has been a part of her life for so long.
- Violent temper/urges. Really not that successful, generally speaking. Threats are kind of a go-to.
- Fear of being the weak one, of being the hunted, the 'pathetic wounded prey'. She has major control issues which is part of how she fell into being a Hunter anyway.
- Softer emotions, tied to the above. Mostly successful with most people, but some people find their way under her skin and she ends up fiercely loyal.
- Dislike-to-outright-fear of being alone. This started back in her own world post-Buried, but will only be a worse issue with the years in the Nothing piled on top of it.
- Doublethink re: other monstrous/left-of-human/non-human entities vs herself, in that she definitely targeted other fear-touched folks at home and made enemies of most differently/non-human people on her own voyage, whilst originally thriving in her own Hunt-touched state.
- Guilt for all the things she's done. She's starting to deliberately let herself feel this as she tries to move forward as a better person, though.
- Co-dependency on Basira. Until recently, both at home and on the ship, she's been able to rely heavily on this, but now...
Greatest Fear: This is a two pronged thing, as she's just as scared of being a weak, pathetic prey animal as she is of giving totally into the hunt and becoming a ruthless apex predator. Basically, she is terrified of being any part of the Hunt. Bonus: The Nothing.
Greatest Desire: At this point, to die so she can be free of the Hunt and stop hurting people.
Greatest Regret: Daring Calvin to go into the old building site where he was touched by an Avatar of the Slaughter and Daisy first really felt the pull to the Hunt. This day sort of set the course of the rest of her life.
