GWL: THE SCIENTIST
Name
Gwllian (Gwl)
Pronouns
She/her
PERSONALITY
Vibrantly excited about existence. Loves kids, loves teens, loves adults, loves animals, loves plants, loves fungi, loves protozoans, et cetera. Not great at social cues, but means well, she is just too busy thinking about the awe-inspiring beauty of animals with radial symmetry to consistently pay attention to other people's facial expressions. Extrovert. Perpetually buzzing about the wonder of the universe. Obsessively passionate about an endless array of topics. Loves everyone so much and wants to take you by the hand and show you how impossibly, wonderfully improbable it is that we even exist.
APPEARANCE
Has less of a solid internal appearance than other parts because she is far more focused on the external world and its wonders than she is self-focused. Freckled, muddy, and sunburnt, with dark chin-length hair pulled back in a messy ponytail. Wears huge round glasses. Has a fondness for patterned button-up shirts, cargo pants, and big jackets with lots of little pockets for storing snailshells and animal bones. Always fluttering her hands with excitement.

MISCELLANEOUS
Stims much more openly than other alters. Identifies heavily with Aradia Megido from Homestuck. Wants to work in science communication and farm sheep. Has religious feelings about the golden spiral and turing patterns. In high school, she told everyone who would listen that she was in a passionate romantic relationship with her AP Biology textbook. Her daemon is a massive hagfish named Variable, who she wears slung loosely around her neck like a slimy scarf. She is one of the only alters who does not have trauma memories or interact with trauma at all.
