Name: Larissa Duncan
Age: 16
Birthday: October 12.
Sign: Libra.
Blood Type: O-, the universal donor.
Fav. Food: Chocolate banana soufflé.
Hated Food: Sloppy Joes. They're so sloppy.
School: Crystal Academy.
Hobbies: -
Whistle While You Work: Cleaning. She loves the smell of Pine-Sol in the morning. The fact that "cleaning" is the first thing listed in her hobbies should tell you something about her.
-
That's Alright, That's Okay, You're Gonna Pump Our Gas Someday: The Crystal Academy pep squad has lots of pep. Larissa knows the power of team spirit, and loves being a cheerleader.
-
I Made You a Mix Tape: Larissa loves organizing her iTunes library into hundreds of themed playlists. She will make you a mix CD. You don't even have to ask -- she just wanted to do it for you.
smile This one is called "Songs About Opossums" and has 12 tracks on it.
smile VirtuesAssets:Organizer: Larissa is a little bit like Mr. Clean, the Pine-Sol lady, Snow White, a Personal Digital Assistant, a Blackberry, and a comic book super butler rolled into one, on crack. Or, at least, this seems to be her life's aspiration. If it can be cleaned up and organized, then Larissa can clean it up and organize it -- and if it can't, well, they have a place for that too! It's called the garbage can.
biggrin She is excellent at assigning roles to group members and dividing up tasks into many smaller tasks. She never met a cubbyhole she didn't like.
Proactive: She doesn't believe life ever became great for anyone by sitting back and simply reacting to what it throws at you. She believes the best defense is a good offense, and acts accordingly. She would in fact stage starseed "lures" to draw Negaverse agents out into the open. She thinks this is a great idea. The
best idea.
Mortar: Larissa hasn't forgotten you. Once you're in her orbit, it's nearly impossible to reach escape velocity again: she is an excellent multitasker and doesn't forget a single brick that makes up a wall. She promotes teamwork and synergy, and is always ready to offer an encouraging word to an ally who seems to be floundering, to reorganize the flying V when the lead goose gets tired and they need to shift the rotation to get back into alignment again. There's a difference between leading and managing, and Larissa is a very good manager -- on a macro scale. She aims to be the oil in a well-oiled machine.
Elementary, My Dear Watson: Larissa has excellent deductive reasoning capabilities. Given a set of puzzle pieces, she can construct a picture fairly readily; given a set of events, she can often tie them together in a logical order. The sciences and mathematics make a great deal of sense to her, and she has a similar appreciation for music. But though she is creative in making organic ties between disparate events, it should be noticed this is a mark of creative logic more so than concrete logic -- as a result, she is easily thrown off by red herrings and can also tend to cling to the wrong theory for too long.
FlawsLiabilities: Neat Freak: How can she keep from cleaning? She can't. If Larissa sees a crooked picture, she will straighten it. If she gets dirt on her hands, she'll wash them five times. She will reorganize your pencil case ("What do you mean, you don't have a pencil case? How do you
live?"). She will sort her school binder by color-coordinated tabs. She will tie your untied shoelace. It's a matter of principle.
Ruthless: Larissa is a person with a great deal of inertia -- once a plan is in motion, she hates to call it off at any cost; when a goal is in sight, she strives for it, certain that even the best of omelettes requires a willingness to break a few eggs. She'll see things through, but there may be some cuts and bruises along the way -- fair warning.
What trees? All I see is this forest: If Larissa is a good manager on a macro scale, then she's a bit overzealous to be equally as good at managing on a micro scale. Once you're a part of the plan, you cease to be separable -- you can no longer be removed from your relationship to the plan in Larissa's mind. You are one important cog in a
very important machine. Once she sees the big picture, she no longer wants to be bogged down with the details, even if the details are "I can't come because my mother has the croup."
Stay within the lines, the lines are your friends: Larissa is good at connecting the dots, tidying things, organizing, adding structure: she flounders when structure is consciously being taken away. She'd rather learn the entire
Thriller dance routine than go to a dance and have to shake her booty totally free-form. Once she has a plan, she likes to stick to it, and can be slow to adapt.
