Character Basics
Name: Quistis Trepe
Fandom: Final Fantasy VIII
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Point in canon: After the game ends, with Ultimecia defeated and everyone back at Balamb Garden.
Character LJ: bluemagicqueen
Character in depth
Powers/abilities: Quistis uses a chain whip as a weapon and has an ability called “Blue Magic”, where she can learn the attacks of monsters from the game.
Weakness: Although she hardly has any physical weaknesses (her attacks are strong and her defense is good), emotionally she is a very vulnerable person.
Describe your characters personality: Quistis seems calm and collected, but -deep down- she’s a very insecure person. Orphaned at a young age, she lived with an adoptive family for a few years, before they sent her away to Garden (basically, an academy for mercenaries). There, she flourished as a child prodigy, becoming a SeeD officer when she was 15 and an instructor at 17. However, she was demoted a year later because the rest of the staff felt that she lacked “leadership qualities”. She tries her best in everything she does, though, and is actually a very compassionate individual.

Examples
First Person:
It reminded me of Time Compression.
Everything was shrouded in a blinding flash of white and my body felt heavy, dragging me down even as I tried to force myself to run. And, although I called for Squall and the others, I only heard my voice echo back at me.
The next thing I know, I opened my eyes and found myself in this strange world. I walked far and long, but couldn’t find anyone -or anything- even remotely familiar. I didn’t know whether this was the result of Time Compression or some other unknown force, but I needed to find my way home. I just had to.
Third Person:
Quistis had to keep telling herself that her feelings for Squall meant nothing, that she was sincerely happy for him and Rinoa. And she was. Even if it broke her heart when they were together, she really was happy for them. They were her friends, after all, and she was grateful that Rinoa could give Squall something she had never been able to.
That’s why, although she would never admit it to anyone, being sent to this world was somewhat bearable. She told herself at least this way Squall and Rinoa could be happy, without her to make things awkward for them. But she still couldn’t help wondering where she was, how she got here, but what she had to do to get back home.
Answer the following as your character:
What is the square root of 169? 13.
Do you belong to a formal religion? Where I’m from, there are legends of the Great Hyne, who apparently created mankind and was the first Sorceress in existence. I don’t worship her, though.
What's one thing you've never been able to do? Well… I guess it’s that I’ve never been able to find someone who loved me more than I did them.
Which animal do you most closely identify with? I’m not entirely sure. Perhaps a cat? They are, after all, independent creatures, and there are times when I feel the need to be by myself as well.
How do you deal with your fears? Mostly I keep it bottled up inside, but sometimes I try to reach out and speak to someone about what might be bothering me. But the last time I tried, I was told to talk to a wall.
What is your favorite dream? The details are hazy at best, but sometimes I dream of a small, modest house and my biological parents playing with me in the yard.
Who (or what) would you die for? My friends. They mean more to me than anything in this world.
What is your most valued possession? Taking my occupation into account, I have learned not to value material things too much. In the end, none of it matters anyway.
Here is a needle, a tube of toothpaste, a deck of cards and some string. Make something. What did you make? A huge mess, most likely.
Would you prefer your mate had a rescue hero type job or a 'safe' job? Unfortunately, I lack a “mate” or significant other. But -if I did have one- whatever he chooses as a job is really up to him, and I would try to accept him regardless.
