Ariadne

"The Minotaur's Sister"

DOMAIN(S): Emotionally difficult but necessary interpersonal tasks (ex. setting boundaries, ending unhealthy relationships, etc). Dangerous situations that require long-term planning to escape safely. Everything related to my/our biological brother.

PERSONALITY: Somewhat cold and detached; not cruel but not especially prone to kindness either. Calculating and clinical. Reclusive. Precise. Handles interpersonal interactions with tact but does not fawn or apologize. Self-assured. Largely emotionless but decidedly not apathetic; she has an objective and a plan and she executes it neatly and efficiently. Unafraid to look the monster in the eye, and frequently unsettles the monster with her clear unflinching gaze. To quote K.A. Applegate: "People don’t understand the word ruthless. They think it means ‘mean.’ It’s not about being mean. It’s about seeing the bright, clear line that leads from A to B. The line that goes from motive to means. Beginning to end. It’s about seeing that bright, clear line and not caring about anything but the beautiful fact that you can see the solution. Not caring about anything else but the perfection of it." To quote AO3 user paraTactician: "While everyone around you wavered and doubted and undid and redid and failed to commit – flinched to pull the trigger, drove the blade only half-way home – you saw your path as nothing more than a series of steps, and you walked it. It gave you an advantage. Crossroads are the gods’ culling floors, and nothing kills like indecision."

INTERNAL APPEARANCE: Black hair in a tight ponytail. Piercing eyes. Unnaturally good posture. Somehow both stiff and fluid.

GENDER: Sister (she/her)
