Chrissy Lenore

Name: Chrissy Age: 21 Appearance: Shoulder-length blonde hair held back by a pink headband with a small bow — a gift from her younger sister, meant to bring her luck. Large, pale grey eyes that usually give away more than she'd like.

Personality: Curious to the point of recklessness, but anything but fearless. Chrissy is the kind of person who walks toward the strange thing despite being afraid — not without the fear. She loves explaining things, building theories, taking notes; and that's exactly what keeps her composed a little longer than most when things get eerie. When she's nervous, she talks too much. When she's truly frightened, she goes very quiet.

Strengths: Well-read, stubborn, and blessed with a sharp memory for details and stories. She remembers paths, names, and symbols almost automatically.

Weaknesses: Routinely overestimates her own courage. Forgets to eat when she's deep into a project. Trusts strangers too easily if they have an interesting story to tell.

Likes: Old bookshops, rain on the roof, cinnamon in her coffee, unsolved mysteries. Dislikes: Deep darkness, the sound of footsteps crunching behind her, doors that won't open.
