PERSONALITY

+ Excitable + Compassionate + Empathetic + Encouraging
= Emotional = Idealistic = Adventurous = Dreamy
- Distracted - Evasive - Over-Accommodating - GullibleWith her abundant energy and excitable nature, Nova seems to find interest in just about anything and everything. She desperately wants to believe the world is a place of hope and possibility, and tries to see all things within as what they could be, rather than what they are. This of course can lead to unrealistic views and expectations as she ignores reality for the sake of potentially greener pastures. Her idealism paired with her excitable personality, however, can also provide an encouraging combination that sees the best in people and their capabilities despite their flaws.Her compassion is her strongest trait. Paired with a strong empathy for people, she finds great joy in making others happy. Whether that be a calm night under the stars, or an exciting new adventure to distract from dystopian life, she is always looking for ways to make people’s lives a little more cheerful. That said, her naïve nature can make her a less than ideal candidate for advice outside her realm of experience. Regardless, she often resorts to other ways to help if need be.With a people-pleasing nature, she tends to make friends rather quickly. Though her ability to keep them relies heavily on her interest. Oftentimes she finds her attention wandering elsewhere, unintentionally leaving others feeling ignored. When given a negative reaction, she is often quite taken off guard. Thus she tends to obsess over ways to gain their love and approval in any way possible in her over-accommodating tendencies. During these times she will ignore her own needs as well, as she ultimately finds her worth in approval from others. She also tends to be quite evasive in the face of social conflict, and will struggle intensely in finding blame within others. Paired with her Gullible nature, she is a very easy target for things like gaslighting, as she will always believe others over herself.

HISTORY

TW: DEATH || HISTORY IS OUTDATED

✧✧✧

Nova was born into a turbulent world filled with tragedy and broken people. This was a painful reality her father protected her from best he could. Though her mother passed on in childbirth, her father spoke of her mother as a radiant sun- a beacon of light visible through the clouds. To Nova, her mother became almost a mythological figure of understanding and hope- brimming with kindness and without a flaw - someone she was encouraged to be like most of all, especially in times of hardship or fear. These types of fantastical descriptions are what made up most of Nova’s childhood ,as tragedy was desperately hidden by a rose-tinted shield.Her father’s name was Callisto, a motorcycle scout that had an undeniable addiction to adrenaline. He was a protective man who always seemed to keep a cheery excitable disposition. And despite his unpredictable life, he always made sure Nova knew just how much she was loved by him. Unfortunately, his own quest to ensure his daughter never lost her spark for life often called for a level of half-truths or deceit. His fear of the world manifested into an overprotective parenting style that left Nova quite naïve to the harshness of life. There were times of course, when her father could not hide the inevitable. This was especially so when it came to his anxious impulsive nature.Travel and change was always present within the small family. They never stayed in one settlement too long, and lived quite the nomadic life hopping from place to place. With the constant change, came little time to establish deep relationships with others. Thus Nova was a rather dependent and lonely child when her father wasn’t around. The lack of time caused the naturally extroverted Nova to learn to cater to others, ignoring her own needs and focusing on gaining as much love from them as she could before she was forced to go elsewhere. In her eyes anything was better than being stuck alone for extended periods of time with her nerves. Therefore, she developed a romanticized view of individuals even if they brought her harm. She learned to try and see the best in people even when they had abusive natures, and survived the social world by catering to their needs and feelings above her own for the sake of whatever approval they would give her. This, of course was rather damaging as it became a coping mechanism that continues to haunt her to this day.Her life continued this way for a while, until her early 20s. The two had been traveling a good day and a half in their quest to a new settlement before their trip took a very dark turn. Encountering Guards of Phanes was not unheard of for the two, though usually their motorcycles could outrun them. Thus the chase started with confidence. Though it only took one lucky hit from a guard’s claw to send a poorly secured piece of Nova’s bike across the desert sands. Having just worked on it herself prior to leaving the last settlement, any confidence she held in her abilities began to crumble with her bike. Feeling panic set in, her father was forced to think fast- pondering all available moves within a short time. Unfortunately, as nova’s bike began stalling her speed tremendously, he knew time was running short. He had to make a decision. Telling her to keep going as far as she can till she reached a settlement and to not look back, he chose to become a distraction. By using his scout experience, he effectively lead the guards away from his daughter. Nova obeyed best she could despite the intense fear that engulfed her, only glancing back with the loud explosion that followed- a trail of smoke rising in the distance. This was all she knew of her father’s final moments.With a sinking feeling in her stomach and her body coursing with adrenalin, Nova continued on her course. Her hand never left the throttle, even as her speed was significantly impacted. It wasn’t until her bike finally broke down completely an hour or so later did she begin to comprehend the reality of her situation. The launch from her collapsed bike felt little in terms of pain compared to the untimely loss of her father. Not to mention, she was now alone without a working bike miles from any settlement. After a while of just laying in the dirt, the reminder of her father’s words gradually pushed her to pull herself back up and keep going. Merely obeying his final wishes, she picked up her bike as well and continued her trudge across the desert with hopes she may somehow make it to a destination.As the days went by, Nova was thankful she always ensured to bring rations and water. These things were a scarcity in the desert, after all. However, little prepared her for the empty loneliness that surrounded her now. Left with her miserable thoughts to keep her company, this was a time of great trial within the normally hopeful girl’s mind. With dwindling supplies and the reality of an uncertain future, Nova was desperate for any sort of clarity within her turbulent mind. Her greatest comfort was found in the familiarity of the stars- and the legends she herself clung to. The book her father gifted her years prior becoming her guiding force. This was also the event that further pushed her obsession with her beliefs. And thankfully, her rescue seemed written in the stars. For the coming days eventually brought the arrival of her savior- a settlement lead named Benji.Benji had stumbled upon the unfortunate Nova by chance and quite literally saved her life in the process. Nova showed obvious signs of some sort of trauma, and was in a complex mental state and hardly responded to verbal questions. Though there was one thing she obviously was in desperate need of - safety and shelter. Thankfully the Salus Lead was willing to oblige, leading Nova to the well-hidden settlement known as Salus. This the start of her new life without the man who had been her guiding light for so many years. Now she was truly alone, left to navigate life as such with only his slightly faded notes to live by. And for grieving Nova, it was the emptiest feeling of all.The first year was the roughest, as she tried hard to find where to fit in. Fighting an internal warfare of emotion and trauma, she moved from job to job, realizing quickly that her sheltered upbringing left her lacking life skills that made her useful. Her clumsy nature and natural dislike of repetitive mundane tasks also made the experience tremendously miserable, making her even more distractible than usual. With distractions, came uncoordinated mistakes and negative experiences that added to her emotional plummet. She was also too afraid to attempt mechanics, as in her mind her lackluster job on her motorcycle led to the death of her father. It was in this dire time in Nova’s life, that Graeme, a kind-hearted man she had gradually grown close to, proved to be her guiding star.Scouting was a difficult trade. The high turnover rate paired with constant exposure to the worst Mars had to offer on earth made for a career not for the faint of heart. However, the life of a Scout took a special calling. It was a passing comment by Graeme about the lack of volunteers willing to risk it all for a distraction mission that charted Nova’s course to a new life.Overhearing the scout lead discuss the need for the mission, Nova perked up, ultimately begging for him to let her have the job. Graeme was very hesitant to let this be Nova's first mission, much less let her go at all. She very well could die, but to Nova it was a risk worth taking- a chance to prove her self worth that depended so heavily on how useful she was to others. And lucky for her, she turned out to be a natural at it. This moment was pivotal for her, and the beginning of a passion that eventually rebuilt the person she used to be. The excitement and rush of the job, paired with the opportunities to help others proved to be the combination she needed most. With her scouting success and gradual improvement of her mental health, she also found it most useful to attempt mechanics again. And though her expertise was limited, she found ample space to learn and tremendous minds to learn from. And now, 3.5 years since her first arrival to Salus, she is still getting used to a life of settling in one place.

The cheerful centerpiece to Nova's life for many years. He was her best friend, her closest ally, and the one who taught her everything she knows. It was also because of his sacrifice she was able to survive and eventually find Salus.From him, she has her custom bike, her matching scarf, and a book of astronomy and star-mapping, all comfort items she holds dear.

LACY CARTIER

MOTHER

STATUS: DECEASED

Akin to the sun, with a smile that lit up the room and a heart of pure gold. These were words continuously repeated by her father when asked about her mother. Though Nova's birth brought new life, it was at the cost of her mother's. Therefore, she relied on her father's memories to form an image of who this mysterious figure was. Unfortunately, he was a man whom hardly knew her himself.

ROLEPLAY EXAMPLES

"Reassignment"

If anyone was good to flake out on, it was Nova. In all her flighty ways, she was also tremendously forgiving. Therefore, when she was told to meet Benji in the watchtower only to make it all the way up there and find no boss in sight, well… she looked back on it as a nice experience. She had an excuse to go up there and check on people as well as admire the view! No harm done, though then came the task of actually finding him. Casually making her way down the stairs in thought, she ponders over where SHE’D like to be if she could be anywhere else. Whether it was by sheer luck or the intervention of some unknown dystopian god, her decision was precisely where she found him!✧✧✧Cruising her way into the Mechanics Workshop on her heelie boots, she nearly slips past the man working under machinery. Sliding to a halt, she nearly takes a tumble before she straightens up with a cheerful salute and a smile.“Found you! Scout Nova reporting for duty, Benji!”Unfortunately for the scout, poor Benji seemed to be startled and bonked his head, causing her to flinch at the impact. Eyes widening as the man slides out from under the frame and rubs his head in obvious pain, Nova takes a couple concerned steps closer, almost reaching up to pat her poor boss on the forehead.“OH my goodness!!! That had to hurt, are ya okay!?”Once he laughs it off however, she relaxes a bit with a small chuckle of her own, lowering her hand back down as well.
Upon listening to his words, she clasps her hands together with a grin. The stars in her eyes were undeniable at the thought of whatever the mechanics were creating- she would surely have to check it out later! Shaking her head with a little dismissive wave, she replies cheerfully.“Oh no need to apologize!! Sounds like something super exciting is in the makin’! I don’t blame ya for comin’ down here, it's one of my favorite places to be, too!”Once Benji circled back to the subject, her smile faded into a concerned frown. Ah, the last scout was injured... not the most uncommon occurrence... It was a dangerous job, after all.
Taking the paper carefully, she scans it’s contents vaguely before her gaze returns to her boss. At his concerned expression, she places a hand on his shoulder with a confident look.“You got it, Chief! I won't let ya down! I’ll check on em for ya before I go, okay? It would be good to get as much info as possible before I head out!”As the young scout turns to go, she pauses as he mentions her mission companion, only for said companion to scream in response. Gaze moving towards the source, her grin grows with a laugh. Obviously the raccoon man was nervous about the mission!!! Raising her voice so that Darien could hear, she calls out to him gleefully with an animated pose.“Not to worry, Darien!! I won’t let ya down either! Our success was written in the stars!!!”✧✧✧
