[indent]Female[/indent]

[color=ffaa00][b][u]Reputation[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Echo is often mistaken to be [Color=ffaa00]incredibly knowledgeable and pretty much an expert at every form of engineering, craftsmanship, and science. She was dubbed the “darling of the project.”[/color] This is a bloated evaluation. The administration used her tenacity and resourcefulness to raise awareness in the public’s eye almost like an advertisement.[/indent]

[color=ffaa00][b][u]Appearance[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Because of the rigorous program, she is in good physical shape... This was not always the case. She holds her chin-up and proud as an icon to the world. This is only a front, but has become habit. She is clean cut, professional looking, and well kept. Rarely is there any form of blemish even when she has been doing dirty-work. There is a [Color=ffaa00]dignified and noble (almost aristocratic) edge to her.[/color][/indent]

[color=ffaa00][b][u]Personality Description[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Echo is the responsible one, taking on the jobs nobody else wants to do. She isn’t happy about it, but [color=ffaa00]never complains, and is always helpful[/color] foregoing her own free time in order to help others in their pursuits. Likewise, she is always anticipating needs and flaws, and searches for solutions to implement long before it becomes a problem. She puts on a well-practiced [color=ffaa00]enthusiastic and content[/color] front. However, deep down she is disillusioned, and buries herself in her work to hide the pain.[/indent]

[color=ffaa00][b][u]History[/u][/b][/color]
[indent]Always the best. Echo was expected, always, to learn to speak and walk and be potty trained as soon as her parents deemed would be appropriate. Likewise, she was to always earn an A, and be capable of anything that could make anyone envious. She met their expectations.

All through schooling, she was an introvert. This was exaggerated by all of her siblings being extremely popular and social. Year after year rolled through, and year after year she found herself alone and alienated from her family. They were all the smart, funny, popular, and successful ones. She was just the normal one that her parents wished she was like the others. Graduation was particularly temperamental when her eldest brother had graduated with honors from law school and was on the fast track to becoming a senator.

Her higher education (which was not an option to avoid college) was riddled with mediocre marks as she was not really all to interested in any specific subject. She bore the full brunt of her family and extended family on one thanksgiving day that she was to “stop being lazy and to make something of herself.” [color=292929]That is when she decided... that is when she made the decision to die. She was insufficient for this life and the depressed death of a coward was only fitting. No, she wanted to slip away with everyone cheering. Project Renaissance was that avenue.[/color]
She had read the expose on the project and who they were looking for. War heroes, and geniuses, doctors and philosophers, the physically gifted and those with bright futures, the leaders and the teachers. These were all splayed out with pride as the best of the best and those that had earned the privilege of holding the hopes of the human race on their shoulders. No, more like the human race had strived and finally succeeded in creating these gods. Something so obvious and simple stood out to her, something that the staggering IQ’s of the project could not see in their constant search in the details. None of their poster children could do one very simple thing... live. They spoke of staggering volumes of supplies, armies of robots, and technologies yet to be invented in order to provide three meals a day, and water to bathe in. It was a flaw, but she was no expert on homesteading.

Then came the “if”s. If they were frozen correctly, if the system functions without error, if they are woken properly, if, if, if. When she looked into it, this was a very risky parlor trick. Every competitor of Cryonautics agreed, this was a very expensive and fancy way to execute 6 people and not even know that they did it for at least 100 years. That is why all of the celebrities in Cryonautics’ theoretical line up were all second best. They could not afford to lose the actual movers and shakers. [color=292929]It was a suicide mission. And so she had her means of execution.[/color]
She taught herself everything useful before she even had applied, her family was skeptical. When she made it into the pool of possible candidates, their interest was piqued. When the administration let her name slip as “The darling of the program” they were surprised. And when the press releases hit the public, and she was the poster child, wearing her uniform and the country’s flag with pride, they had become fans hook, line, and sinker.[color=292929] And when that final administration of the anesthetic rolled over her and blackness swallowed her... she sighed a sigh of relief. “It is finally over...”[/color][/indent]

We have this bond now. I don't know how to describe it beyond that, but it isn't something we can simply pass off as friendship. It is somewhat like being brother and sister, but not exactly.
[color=292929]I've been violated. I don't know if it was by Benji, or he was simply a witness and powerless to prevent it. But this I know, whoever was responsible and whoever allowed it is going to live only long enough to regret it.[/color]
[h3][color=292929]☠[/color]◑ [color=009496][i]Tahlia Spade[/i][/color] ◑[color=292929]☠[/color][/h3][i]"Total focus"[/i]
She is all business. Give her a task and she will track it down like a bloodhound. She is sure to get the job done any way she can. Just let's hope that it is the right job, and it requires bullet holes and blowing things up. She isn't exactly well suited for civil society.
[color=292929]I can hear her now. "You're suicidal? Get over it you wimp."[/color]
[h3][color=292929]☠☠[/color][color=ffaa00][i]Echo Montigawitz[/i][/color][color=292929]☠☠[/color][/h3][i]"I am a metamorphosis."[/i]
It's wonderful to see the world in a new light every day.
[color=292929]It's up to me now. I'll see them to freedom and safety if I can.[/color]

That man is ingenious! I must admit I had no idea of the sort of tricks he has up his sleeve. He actually managed to escape the Principality's power, and made it look simple. I should have joined him, but I couldn't leave the others like that. Now, because of the inner workings of his brain, we have our first step toward liberation.
[color=292929]What, the devil, was all that about?[/color]
[h3][color=292929]◑[/color]☺ [color=yellow][i]Yaz Cormick[/i][/color] ☺[color=292929]◑[/color][/h3][i]"She's nice."[/i]
It is fantastic having a remnant of the good old times. It is like a piece of home has traveled with us. I'm a little reluctant to inflict myself upon her, lest I contaminate the last of its kind.
[color=292929]She's immature. She could use a big-sister role in her life, and I'm sure Thalia will do a terrible job.[/color]
[h3][color=292929]◑[/color]◑ [color=f49ac2][i]Owen Childs[/i][/color] ◑[color=292929]◑[/color][/h3][i]"I respect his advice"[/i]
He's a shrink through and through. With how things are going he will have his work cut out for him. Just don't ask him to be something more than his nature and everything will be fine. I don't know if I can consider him a friend, but I think he is definitely a reliable co-worker. I would hesitate giving him anything that you don't want psychoanalyzed.
[color=292929]If he knew, he would have me talking about my potty training clear until I'm old and senile. THEN he would say, "Now were getting somewhere."[/color][/center][hr][/hider]
