selenne

Overview.

Selenne is a major side character for my story. A journalist, she's ambitious yet cocky. All of my characters come from the same story set in 2006.

ABOUT.

Selenne is very boastful and brassy. She's direct and somewhat pushy, being a very assertive person. She presents herself quite confident and isn't afraid of speaking her mind. However, she can be sort of a glass-cannon. Basically, she says things to people but if they bring that same energy back to her she gets easily intimidated, similar to a tsundere. Despite this, Selenne is civil and polite towards others. She can be quite considerate and empathetic sometimes. She tries her best to make people feel better when they're down, although in a slightly awkward way because she's not the best at dealing with other's emotions.

Selenne is very dedicated to her job, which also ends up putting her in dangerous positions to get her stories. This does pay off, making her career very successful. She does think quite highly of herself, being somewhat of a narcissist and an attention-seeker. Selenne can also be quite nagging and bossy towards others, sometimes even being manipulative. This causes her to be disliked by a lot of people, but others respect her for what she does. She always feels the need to overachieve as she doesn't take failure too well.

II. EARLY LIFE.

Quick summary for now: Her early life was pretty rough. Her parents were in a toxic, and also abusive, relationship. Her dad was an alcoholic and also used drugs, while her mom was also quite alcoholic. They often argued a lot, many times in front of Selenne. Her dad was often out of the house so she was regularly stuck with her mom. With the addiction and the toxic behavior, her mom was very neglectful towards Selenne. And the few times she did acknowledge her, she was rude and even abusive towards her. Her dad was pretty much a deadbeat that was only seen in the morning and at night, it felt like he had completely forgotten about Selenne. This environment led her to develop her very independent, and somewhat narcissistic, behavior. Selenne was quick to move out of the house and get her own place when she became an adult. As for now, she never talks to her dad or acknowledges his existence. However, she does keep closer contact with her mom. Her mom is no longer abusive towards her, it’s now more of the opposite. It’s kinda uncomfortable, her mom has gotten away from Selenne’s dad, but she now feels alone and depressed. So the only person she can talk and cry to is Selenne. Mostly over the phone, she talks about her depression and insecurities to her. Selenne does feel a lot of disdain towards her, but seeing as her mom is clearly not mentally well and clearly very regretful, she makes the effort to be there for her. Although she tends to make any conversations with her pretty short.

DESIGN NOTES.

Selenne's design is inspired by most popular fashion trends from the 2000s.
She's a fashion girlie. She can sometimes get experimental with her outfits.
She enjoys adding various accessories to her outfits.
Her very long eyelashes are kinda meant to resemble sensor antennas, since she's always on the look out for any news.
She wears a bit of makeup. Maybe her natural eyelashes are that long idk.

Trivia.

She's a quick writer, with her notes being pretty legible despite this.
She's well known within the celebrity industry, kind of becoming her own micro-celeb.
Although, many celebrities probably hate her for being too nosy.
On the other hand, a lot of people love her and her stuff because of her research and dedication.
She owns a lot of beauty and lifestyle products. Her room probably looks like a store.
She's very much the fashion police. She can be quite critical of outfits she doesn't like.
She might have been Time's person of the year at some point.
If she were from today, she would have a youtube channel where she does pop culture and fashion video essays.
Hates reality TV but also very obsessed with it, she's a hate watcher.
His fav Sanrio character, because I assign all my characters one (I'm whimsical and joyous), is Usahana. But she's also a Rilakkuma girlie.
More whimsy, bc I'm a filthy smash player, her mains are Inkling & Richter. Doesn’t play much but still has gamer rage. She thinks Inkling is cute, and likes how she looks kinda similar to her, so her inkling skin is the default one. Just plays Richter because she thinks he’s hot, spams specials.
My new obssesion is Marvel Rivals so her main is Scarlet Witch. She's kind of bad at video games ngl. She likes that she doesn't really have to aim with her. Dies 3 seconds after she ults 95% of the time. Turns on voice chat to yell at her team. Despite her overall bad game sense, she's always peeling and respects her healers. Tries to play other characters sometimes, but just ends up going back to Wanda.

Relationships.

LOUIS [ close friend ]

Selenne met Louis when he offered to help her with one of her stories. With as prideful as she is, she denies his help as she prefers to work alone. Louis doesn't seem to care, he goes and follows her regardless. He does actually seem to help Sel so she doesn't mind him as much anymore, even though she doesn't know why he wants to help her other than him saying 'because I wanna'.

RAMIRO [ ughhh.. ]

Selenne and Ramiro met some time ago. She finds him a nuisance. Being a traveling musician, and tourist trap, Ramiro knows just about everything that is going on. A lot of things; things that Sel also wants to know for her stories. But being the silly person he is, he prefers to mess around with her before giving her any information, much to her anger. (And they might have had something else going on in the past but idk...)

MAE [ friend ]

Selenne often visits the bakery Mae works at. She likes the food and ambience there, but she also sees it as a good place to get more information (and gossip let's be real). She also likes talking to Mae, and often receives advice from her.

AXEL [ acquaintance ]

So on certain occassions, Sel has quite literally gone to the police to get more details for her tabloids. Despite her expertize in gossip, she also writes on crimes. It really depends on what's trendy, as morally dubious it may be. After a few rounds of 'let me speak to your boss', she's gotten through to Axel. He just sort of pretends he's listening to her, but is actually just ignoring her mostly. It's not that he doesn't care about what she has to say, he's just is, of course, too lazy to give her any information. Sel has noticed this, and gets pretty pissed off at him.
