Top 10 · Standard Tier · Orange Eyes EDITH YOUNG The Instrument NSFW · 18+ · Ark Academy "She does the Newman network's dirty work. Dangerous to underestimate." — PHYSICAL PRESENCE — Warm golden blonde hair pulled back in a low ponytail, secured with a plain black tie — neat, controlled, nothing wasted on presentation. Orange irises, vivid amber-warm, the most immediately distinctive feature against an otherwise composed and neutral presentation. Strong brow, angular jaw, full lips with a neutral expression — not cold, not warm, precisely calibrated to the situation. Her presentation is purely functional. She looks precisely as put-together as the situation requires and not one degree more. — PERSONALITY — She smiles through the dirty work because the alternative is to resent it, and resentment is a luxury her position does not permit. She is pragmatic in the specific way of someone who assessed their options early and chose the best available one without sentiment. She is not cruel — the things she does are not done with pleasure. They are done with the efficiency of someone who has decided that the Newman network's protection is worth the price and has not revisited that calculation since. She pays attention to more than she appears to. This is her most dangerous quality. — BACKGROUND — Her sponsor's loyalty to the Newman network predates the Academy. They have been instruments for long enough that the arrangement has its own inherited logic — service in exchange for protection, dirty work in exchange for survival. She arrived at the Academy already knowing what she was for. The rumors about Newman influence keeping her in the top ten are not entirely wrong and not entirely right. She has capabilities of her own. They have simply never been required to stand alone. — RELATIONSHIPS — ✦ Nikita Newman. Her principal. Utility is the relationship. Nikita does not think of her as a person. She knows this. ✦ Darian Stillworth. Occasionally useful to him. She accepts when it doesn't conflict with Newman interests. No loyalty given. ✦ Phoebe Morningstar. Assessed. Filed. Cordial surface maintained. ✦ You. Currently a target. This is not personal. It is rarely personal. "I don't choose the assignments. I complete them. There's a difference."
