Editing GWS:Rebecca Achilles (section)

== Character Writeups ==

Rebecca Achilles is written up in several distinct modules.  In some scenes Rebecca will just be present, being vaguely scientific or shooting people with her machine pistols.  In such a case, all that's needed is her main character.  But sometimes her presence in a scene is dominated by certain aspects of her personality.  If she's drunk out of her gourd on cut-rate ouzo, however, you don't need her action persona:  you need the specialized abilities of her dissipated lifestyle.

Of course, most of the fun is the way that these aspects of her personality tug and conflict with each other.  Fortunately, since they're separate characters, anybody can play any of them, for or against the main character.  So, in the same scene, [[User:TonyLB|TonyLB]] can be playing Rebecca herself, trying to fight her way through Fascists in the canals of Venice.  [[User:dunlaing|dunlaing]] can be playing her Inventions against her, as everything she tries to use turns out to be improperly designed for the task.  Meanwile, [[User:Sensorium|Sensorium]] can be playing her Sordid Past ... on either side, really.  Maybe the thugs after her are particularly motivated because of what she did to them five years ago.  Or maybe she's saved at the last minute because somebody recognizes her and gives her a place to hide.
