We all make choices in life, but in the end our choices make us.

Name: Ariel Bainbridge

Name Origin: Hebrew, lion of God

Species: Little Sister

Age: Baby

Likes:

Dislikes:

Overview: For the most part, Ariel is your typical little girl. She loves playground games such as hopscotch and double-dutch and can often be found playing alone, singing softly to herself. She laughs, she cries, she sings in a truly eerie little voice.

Not particularly outgoing, Ariel is nevertheless a friendly girl though she enjoys her solitude. She comes across as rather passive most of the time, obedient and biddable. Not the leader-of-the-pack sort, she's content to follow. She prefers games with set rules and tangible goals, like jacks or monopoly. She's not particularly imaginative and doesn't "play pretend" a great deal.

As a presumedly rescued Little Sister, Ariel no longer has the sea-slug inside her and therefore doesn't actually require ADAM for her survival. However the mental conditioning she underwent when she was initially captured and taken to the Little Sister's Orphanage is still in place. Meaning she still feels a strong desire to harvest and feed from the dead, though she doesn't understand it. It manifests more as a strange pulling desire when she sees something dead. She knows she's supposed to do something. She wants to do something. She just doesn't remember what. She has no memory of life in Rapture, or her capture or rescue.

Image Song: God Bless the Child - Billie Holiday

Abilities: Ariel is nigh physically indestructible. She is also telekinetic.

Name: Gustav Bainbridge
Name Origin: Scandanavian, staff of God
Species: Human
Age: 65

Likes:
Dislikes:
Overview: At 65 Gustav has the short, compact look of someone who used to be in excellent shape but has let himself go slightly soft around the edges. His black hair is now shot with grey but his blue eyes are still sharp and intelligent, alternately glinting hard as steel or twinkling with amusement.

He was married, once, though they never had any children. Gustav and his wife Lina were both history addicts, they spent the majority of their marriage traveling to the distant lands of dead civilizations. Life was an adventure, then.

Sadly, Lina died after ten years of marriage and Gustav hung up his explorer's hat, seemingly for good. He took a position as a museum curator and specializes in artifacts from dead cultures. Though he no longer seeks out artifacts on foot, he greatly enjoys finding them and purchasing them on behalf of the museum. It's just a different sort of treasure hunting, as he puts it.

One of the cultures he's been doing some research on is that of Rapture, a supposedly utopian underwater city, though nobody truly knows where it is or what became of it. He's found a few items of interest, but altogether it's a small project in the face of many bigger projects. He purchased Ariel without fully realizing what he was getting into. If he hopes she'll be able to shed some light on Rapture, he is sorely mistaken.
