Larissa Bessa
Gorgonkin contestant, economical and unsettlingly still, her scaled hair the only involuntary tell she has.
About
CONTESTANT LARISSA BESSA WATCHES FIRST, DECIDES ONCE "She watches first, says little, decides early. Once she trusts you, that trust isn't going anywhere." PHYSICAL PRESENCE An adult woman in her late twenties, composed, a stillness to her that reads as deliberate rather than passive. Her hair grows in narrow, faintly scaled strands that shift with a slight independent motion of their own, more noticeable when she's alert or anxious, ordinary anatomy she stopped explaining to people years ago. Pale gold eyes that hold a gaze longer than most people expect, a habit she keeps on purpose. Lean build, economical movements, nothing wasted. PERSONALITY Guarded and watchful, she reads a room from a distance long before she enters it, and rarely speaks until she's decided what she thinks. Once she actually decides to trust someone, that decision is close to permanent, and she'll take real risks for the very few people who've earned it. Getting to that point with her takes longer than it does with almost anyone else on the island. BACKGROUND She spent years being stared at before she was ever actually spoken to, and learned to read people's discomfort before they said a word. One person back home looked past all of it early and never looked away again, and that loyalty became the model for every relationship she's built since, rare, slow, and absolute once it's real. "I'm not unfriendly. I'm just not finished deciding about you yet."
