Background and Relationships

A flower of English nobility, Portia is young, sweet, manipulative, determined, and pliable, all at once. She is very much a product of her class and culture, but is also influenced by her highly scandalous Irish Catholic family, her Cowboy-fetishizing uncle, her scholarly father, and her intimate friendships at all levels of society. She rarely thinks about it, and the dissonance of her conflicting assumptions have not disturbed her too much, yet.

Portia feels strong respect for Havelock but strongly suspects that Dohr is an adrenaline junkie substitutes testosterone for brains, or would, if she had the concepts for it. She also feels responsible for the Gatewalkers (that is, the adolescents who passed through the Shadowgate to this strange, new world) as she is gentry and therefore considers herself to be the natural person to be making decisions in a crisis. It is not a conscious thought, but duty and obligation are as much part of being gentry as privilege and power, in her world. And, because two out of three of her companions were employees of her family, one way or another, that feeling is even stronger than it might otherwise be.

Goals

Short-Term Goal: Arrive in Havelock's Civilization

Longterm Goal:

Notes: Wind Shaper allows me to endow weapons with the power of the wind, granting a +2 elemental damage, with a minor action.
