1. Character's Name: Lily Rammsteiner (Unit 67)
2. Fandom: DOGS: Bullets & Carnage (Manga)
3. Time Frame: Pre-death (detailed in background section)
4. Age: About 14
5. Background: (Note: Fanon will be in blue text.)
Unit 67, known as "Lily", was raised in an underground facility devoted to creating the perfect weapon. She and her "siblings" didn't remember anything before waking up in a large room at roughly the age of ten, where they were almost immediately forced to fight and defeat the "old models", failed experiments. Lily and her "siblings" were test-tube babies1, clones of the original "Cerberus", known as the "Führer".
Lily and her "siblings" all had collars around their necks, earning them the nickname of "dogs". These collars held their new spines in place, which enabled them to have super strength, speed, and incredible healing abilities. They also acted as detonators. The dogs could be "set off" from a remote location (as in, made psycho). For Lily, this advantage was double sided. It's implied Lily was the most skilled of all the dogs, but she was also the most unstable. One might call her defective.
Time went on. Lily and the dogs were trained in a variety of fields, though the focus was mainly on close-combat and guns. If they complied, they were not treated poorly. Still, they were held at arm's length. It was clear that the scientists thought of them as experiments rather than people. The only one to "love" them was the leader of the project, Angelica Einstürzen. The dogs strove to impress her and earn her affection, Lily among them, even though they knew how horrible she was.
The dogs made a plan to escape the facility, which ultimately failed. They entered the test chamber to find a large television screen depicting their brother, Heine, connected to a machine that was used to determine whether he can be the "master" or not. The "master" would be able to lead all of the other dogs. When the connection was successful, Einstürzen said she doesn't need the rest of the dogs anymore, and ordered them to kill each other. Lily emerged victorious in that battle royale, but it's all in vain. Heine arrives on the scene and, drunk on power, literally tears Lily apart.
Lily will be taken to the Keep from morning training on the day she dies.
1The master states here that Lily and the dogs were born and raised in the underground facility. However, they remember some outside things, such as flowers. These memories come from the "Führer", who had actually been outside.
6. Personality: Lily isn't the sharpest crayon in the box. She never was. Her education in the underground was minimal. She is, however, very open to learning, though very scatterbrained. When interested she catches on fast, but when disinterested she's easily confused. Still, she tries her best. Lily thinks on her feet and rarely considers the consequences of her actions. Acting fast can save your life, man. She relies on instinct more than anything. Nervous tics include biting her nails to little nubs and saying "yeah" ad nauseam.
Lily is very friendly and extroverted for two reasons. First, it's just a part of her personality. She naturally likes people and looks on the bright side. Second, she's afraid of loneliness. Being lonely or disliked in the underground is a pretty terrifying idea. She tries to be friends with everyone (everyone) despite her lack of foresight. Lily is quick to apologize and will do anything in her power to resolve an issue peacefully.
In another vein, Lily is prone to somewhat extreme jealousy. Back in the underground, if Einstürzen favored another dog over her, Lily would strive to surpass them and earn her "mother's" love, despite Lily's growing hatred for her. She had to be the best. She still has to be the best, though she's hoping to achieve that without violence. Lily hates violence and resents her situation. She gives 110% in everything she does and won't stop until a task is completed.
On the negative end of things, Lily is the most unstable of all the dogs. Once she's riled up, it's impossibly hard to calm her down. She tends to bottle up her emotions and subconsciously releases them in battle. It is obvious that she has a split personality that handles all the fighting, but she's unable to communicate with it. This personality-Lily's personal "dog"-is wild and entirely untamed. It doesn't think. It only acts. It is possible for Lily to calm down on her own, but it's pretty sporadic.
Note: Due to recent canon information (that is, pretty much Lily's life story), Lily will be played differently than she was on the Elegante.
7. Previous Game Developments: N/A (Starting fresh!!)
8. Appearance: Lily is a small, slight girl, with shoulder-length blonde hair and big, bright blue eyes. She has very pale skin, considering she was indoors literally her entire life. A long scar runs down the length of her spine from when it was replaced. A big bunch of scars are on the back of her neck, but they're mostly hidden by a thick metal collar that can't be removed.
9. Abilities: Lily is extremely (and I mean extremely) strong and fast due to the nature of her birth and the experiments performed on her. She displays incredible healing abilities that go as far as regenerating lost limbs and repairing organs (to a point). Her skills will be nerfed by about 50% (mods have permission to change this if necessary) .
10. Languages: Spoken and written English (though her spelling and handwriting are absolutely atrocious).
11. Items: Just the clothes on her back (a weird black jumpsuit jawn and a utility belt with 4 spare ammunition clips [converted to rubber bullets]).
12. Weapons: Two Mauser semi-automatic pistols. In compliance with the nerfing policy, it will only fire rubber bullets.
13. Writing sample - Third Person Prose: When your whole life s a nightmare, you can't dream of anything else.
Lily thinks this every morning when she awakens with a gasp and sits up so quickly she's seized by dizziness and held in its clutches for several long, agonizing seconds. Every morning-what the scientists say is morning, anyway-is the same. Eyes open, breath catches. The pictures in her mind retreat and hide in her subconscious until they're free to roam again.
Every fucking morning.
Rubbing the sleep from her eyes, Lily stands up and promptly walks into a wall that is definitely not supposed to be there. With an undignified yelp, Lily stumbles back and trips over her own two feet. The bed cushions her fall. Lily drops her hands from her eyes and rests them on the bed. She shakes her head to clear any cobwebs left from the night before. Rise and shine it's a new day.
By the way, this is not her room.
(Duh.)
Lily nibbles her nails and looks around, slightly frantic. She's unsure how to feel about this. Is this a test? Are they testing her ability to escape? Her resourcefulness? Now that you mention it, Lily doesn't remember going to bed. Was she drugged? She wouldn't be dressed in her training jumpsuit, compete with guns and ammunition, if this weren't a test. No. Oh, shit, no. Lily takes a deep breath. No time to panic. Calm the fuck down. Lily is the best dog there is (and ever will be, if she's got something to say about it). She can't be bested by a small, bare little room like this.
Examine your surroundings, Lily, not that there's much to examine. There's barely anything here. Just a little bed and a little closet and a little bathroom and a little… journal… thing. That's the most interesting part. Lily picks it up and turns it over and over in her hands. Just a book, it looks like. She opens it and-just kind of stares. "Lily", the divider says. Not "Unit 67". "Lily". Lily chews her lip and turns the page until she gets to Lord Deior's greeting, which she reads with some difficulty, unaware of the audio feature. Reading wasn't exactly a well-enforced skill back home.
Back home. Back home? That's a weird phrase. Who's to say she isn't home? It's not like she's ever been out of the training compound.
Ugh. All this thinking is hurting her head.
Lily flips ahead to the second divider, where everyone else's entries are. So many words and pictures! Way too confusing. Lily gets the gist, though. Write in your section and it shows up in the other. That's straightforward! Lily likes when things are easy. She sits cross-legged on the bed, grabs the quill from the nightstand, and starts to write.
14. Writing sample - First Person: [ text ]
i do not know were i am but i am not scarred. this playce is cold and i walked intoo a wall but i am ok. i do not no if any 1 can see this i hop you can. i did not chek the door i will now.
[Lily checks the door. Oh, shit, there's stuff out there! She quickly closes it.]
ok the door is unlocked but there is stuff out there so i clossed it. i will go out latter. i am sorry my speling is bad i am trying. is my brother haine here or is giovanni. i am sorry for what i did if i did somthing rong.
[Lily taps her finger on the page. Audio goes on and off, on and off, on and off. On -]
Uhh… Oh!
[- and off.]
also hi i am lily.
[Tap, tap, on and - wait. Wait.]
Is this recordi - [Off. On. Off. Suddenly, video! Lily's looking mighty confused. When she realizes it's recording she lets out a noise that sounds like "whit" (caught somewhere between "what" and "shit") and turns it off.
When she figures out as much as she can (which takes a good deal of time), Lily tacks on another video - an intentional one! She waves at the nonexistent camera. It's obvious to anyone with eyes that Lily is pretty uneasy, but she tries to hide it behind a big smile.]
Uh, hey! Wow, this is totally easier than writing. Yeah, I'm, um, I'm really bad at spelling and stuff, so… you can just ignore all that. All the text, I mean. Just pay attention to this part. So, yeah, hi! I'm Lily.
[Lily looks over her shoulder and jabs a finger towards the door.]
And yeah, like I said, I opened the door, and there's just a bunch of other doors. I didn't go out, though. I'm gonna go exploring after I post this.
[Back to the "camera"!]
Sooo, about this place. I read the message from… Deer? No, Deior. I don't really know what a "keep" is, or even a "holloway". Is that a name? It sounds like a name. But yeah, I don't really know where I am, aside from that. Information would be totally cool. I'll be keeping this book thing with me.
[So… how should she end this? Lily ends up staring awkwardly, chewing her nails, until she gets the genius idea to say,]
So… yeah. Bye!
[and end the video.]
15. Tattoo: Left-hand ring finger (I now pronounce you game and wife).
