Character Info:
Name: Margaret
Age: 14
AU/PG/CANON/OC: Atop the Fourth Wall, Gun and Sorcery arc
List 5-7 bullet points of the history of your character
- A long, long time ago, a girl was born into a cultist church that wanted to build an ultimate weapon of destruction to use against their enemies. The girl, unaware of this, lives in the world freely and happily. She loves her parents the way that any girl is supposed to, and they - supposedly - loved her back, and for who she is.
- It wasn't until her 13th birthday that Margaret would learn the truth: her family didn't love her for who she was, they loved her for who she was going to become: a magical weapon for the church. She would be sacrificed limb by limb for Whately, the leader of their cult and the person who created the gun itself.
- Angry by this, Margaret lets the gun be completed. But in the end, she murders her parents once they put their hands on the gun. She tortured them and tortured them until they died, letting them pay for their own sins. Since then, Margaret has been passed down from cults and magicians, but each one has given her up...
- ...until, she finds her way to Linkara, a comic book nerd who was just enjoying a leisurly lunch outside. "I'm free!" said some crazy guy, "Free at last!", but Linkara just takes the gun and continues to eat. No one knows what Margaret did to him, but one thing is for sure: being with Linkara has made her into a better person.
- Throughout Atop the Fourth Wall, Margaret has some pretty important and minor roles, but the most important role she has is Linkara's partner in crime fighting. Without her, Linkara would just be some guy with cosplay and he'd probably be curling up in a ball somewhere.
Summarize the above and focus on telling us about your character! Indicate who they are rather than what they do. History is important but the more detailed section should always be their personality/motivations. This can be between 300-800 words.
- Margaret is a ghost girl who was killed for a magical gun in a cult, and kills her parents because of how betrayed she feels. She makes her way to Linkara through different cults and magicians throughout the years, and because of Linkara, she becomes a stronger person. Also through Linkara, she becomes nicer and nerdier, but worries for his saftey 24/7. She has a strong desire to protect him and help escape the fate of evil, and Margaret helps Linkara overcome this by giving the reviewer her power and helping him fight different villains throughout the series.
Tell us what gem you have chosen for your character and explain why. Discuss what changes they may go through. I'm looking for an understanding of the system, setting and character! Also consider what sort of trajectory or character goal you have in mind.
- Flourite, a crystal that comes in many different colors (which can be attributed to how Margaret can change her looks with magic in canon), is credited for absorbing all negativity, and is also notworthy for promoting spiritual wholeness, development, protection, and peace. It is wholey a protection gem. In canon, Margaret first officially meets Linkara and prevents him from literally killing himself - her words being as follows: "No. Partner. Friend." Two arcs later, during Gun and Sorcery, Margaret shuts her power off from Linkara in an attempt to help him realize the missuse of her power. In the Psychoman review, Margaret appears in her human form for the first time. She warns Linkara about the dangers ahead and tells him that he can change his own evil destiny by bettering himself. Both of these points note the protection part of her gem, as she is usually protecting Linkara from hurting himself or others. Margaret is a generally cheerful person now, too, now that she has Linkara (and his crew) by her side, and in the Holy Terror review, she fights her mirrorverse self - "zapping" away that negativity back into hypertime.

Summarize how would they be affected by the powercap present in Cosmographia, and how they would react to gaining power.
- Margaret would have to be used to being on her own again; before meeting Linkara, she would be passed from her murderous family to other cultists and magicians throughout the years, so it was pretty hard to be happy and feel at home - especially since, before realizing that she herself can change, drove a man insane before meeting Linkara. She'd be scared, and wouldn't really know what to do. The first thing Margaret would do is to search for help at the best possible moment, hopefully make a friend, and try and find a way out or some sort of contact to home.
- She'll worry the most for Linkara, who in previous occurances has even broken down his mighty persona to a weakened man when he realizes his magic gun has also been taken away by the Entity in Planet of the Symbiotes review. He sees Margaret not only as a companion in arms, but as his best friend - and Margaret feels the same. Margaret worries that without her guidance and presence next to Linkara, something very bad will happen.
- Hey, the plus side is that she's finally just the slightest bit humanoid again, and nothing too drastic has been done to make this happen! Margaret would take full advantage of being slightly humanoid again. This means eating, sleeping again, and INTERNET. Yes, she knows she might not necessarily NEED it, but who cares? She's not a ghost anymore!
