Character Name: Ris Bancroft
Canon: OC
Canon History: You know what fuck it I'm going to be lazy and link to her SF app because I'm not writing all this down again

Canon Personality:

  • Loyal... to a scary degree: Once you have Ris on your side, not only will she die for you, she will also kill for you.
  • Cautious and distrustful: Ris assumes everyone is out to get her. Which, to be fair, from her limited experience, this is true.
  • Passive-aggressive and snarky: If everyone's out to get her, she's out to strike back! But also she's not like, looking to DIE or anything, so she's just going to be as paggro as possible about it and hope no one picks up on it.
  • Thoughtful and caring: If anyone makes it past the initial wall of nastiness she's put up to keep herself safe, Ris is capable of being a really sweet person, actually. If anyone's sick, hurt, or just in need of a tiny shoulder to cry on, she might not be the actual best choice, but she sure will try her best.
  • Possessive: Refer to bullet point the first, but let's also add that her loved ones are hers. And woe unto anyone who tries to challenge that... even if those people are the loved ones themselves.
  • Nasty teasing little gremlin: Ris' favorite thing is teasing other people and making them fluster. She's terrible like that.

AU History: Ris' name may be legally Iris Bancroft, but please don't call her that— that's her mother. Her mother is legally married to Dr. Varen Bancroft, a highly esteemed surgeon in Kaisou's hospital, but Ris isn't the doctor's daughter. No, she's the product of one of her mother's many affairs... who her mother just happened to drop in the doctor's lap and be off on her merry way.

The doctor, for his part, has never been cruel to his stepdaughter. Although she's not really his stepdaughter, as he never legally adopted her, but whatever. But "not cruel" does not necessarily equal "kind." The reality is that he's just never been much of a figure in Ris' life at all. He at least made sure she had someone looking after her when she was too young to do so herself and now that she's older he's always sure that she has a roof over her head and money with which to feed herself, but he otherwise doesn't take any interest in her at all. Really, the only thing he seems interested in is his work, which he throws himself into entirely at the expense of most other things in his life.

As for Ris' mother, she only bothers to stop by when she wants to show off her cute trophy daughter. Then it's right back to vanishing for months on end.

As a result of no one really giving much of a damn about her, Ris has never really given much of a damn about herself. She made it through her schooling, but her grades were middling at best and she never really took much interest in any extracurriculars. She graduated high school last year, but right now she's just taking a gap year while she figures out what she wants to do. ...Or, at least, that's what she says to keep suspicion off of her.

Ris really has no plans for herself or her future, instead choosing to just throw herself headlong into whatever seems like it will kill the endless droll of her life for even a few seconds or let her pretend someone actually cares about her. She's never strayed too far into the Realm of Extremely Poor Decisions, but you bet your ass she's dabbled if the option was open to her.

AU Personality Differences: AU Ris is more morose and depressive than her usual self, although she does a better job of hiding it. Additionally, she's way more prone to risk-taking than in canon, and doesn't value her life nearly as highly. This will change once she starts regaining memories, of course.
