Character: Ada Vessalius
Series: Pandora Hearts
Character Age: 18

Canon: Reveille is home to the four noble Duke houses, where the only thing prettier than the veneer of civility that covers up the brutal power politics are the people themselves. It’s never mentioned that they are in a position of autocratic power; they just manage the Abyss and Pandora. By contracting with ‘Chains’, powerful monsters from a secret hell-world called the Abyss, a person can gain eternal youth and unfathomable power. Our hero, Oz, contracts with just such a monster in order to escape the Abyss after he has been thrown in for unknown reasons. Together with Pandora, the shadowy organization that conceals the Abyss from public view, he pursues his strangely human chain’s lost memories and the secrets of the Abyss.

Ada, Oz’s sister, is a sweet, uncomplicated girl in a world full of messy politics. She believes the best of people (sometimes rightly, sometimes very, very wrongly), and is quick to pick up other people’s true feelings. She’s a proper lady of her Victorian-esque time,well-mannered and a prefect at her school, but with a sweet sense of curiosity, adventure and a tough work ethic. When her brother was lost to the abyss Ada did not despair, but threw herself wholeheartedly into devising ways to rescue him. As a byproduct of her research into the Abyss, she developed an insatiable love for all things occult, from sorcery to torture. Although she is normally somewhat reserved and a little bashful, her passion allows her to rant for hours at a time about her strange hobby.

Sir? Excuse me, sir? If I could have a moment of your time, I have a very important question that I would like to ask you. Thank you for stopping to take the time to talk to me. I’m very pleased to meet you; My name is Ada Vessalius and I’m a little lost...Please, I don’t mean to be rude or stare, but you must understand, such things are not very common where I’m from. It makes it very hard to find people with the same interests, and it can be a little lonely... I’m sure you yourself have experienced the same feeling.If it wouldn’t be too much trouble, do tell me all about yourself and how you were reanimated. Was it perhaps by using the methods of the Vodun? Or a different Necromantic method? Or maybe... stimulation of the electrical impulses using a lightning bolt? Ah...! The possibilities are endless! ♥ --O-Oh, I didn’t mean to make you groan; I’m sorry. My Uncle did tell me not to overwhelm new friends, but it is such a relief to be able to speak about what is truly in my heart.

Ah, no--you don’t have to feel obligated to show me your heart as well. I’m sure it’s still very important to you, even if it’s not beating anymore. If we could just walk and talk like this, arm in arm for a little longer... If you like, maybe I can even help you reattach it later. I don’t have any practical experience, but I know how to do a little bit of this and that from a particular book I read and I would really like to have to chance to test what I’ve learned, and of course to repay you for your kindness in showing me around!

Um, please don’t think I’m strange for saying all of this. You don’t mind, right? I wouldn’t want to bore you to death talking about such things, but I truly feel as though we share a common interest. --I wasn’t trying to imply being dead was a bad thing! Oh, I’m so sorry, I just got ahead of myself. I’m very fond of dead things, actually, but normally they don’t talk back to me.

Oh, yes, about my question... Thank you for reminding me. I was so excited I completely forgot. Is that really a tentacle beast in the grain silo over there? Do you think it be possible to meet her right away? I’m sorry, I know I’m asking a lot for only having known you such a short while! But you see, if that is one of the Elder Gods present we probably don’t have very much time until the end of time itself, so I have to take in as much as possible very quickly.
