History:

Elenore was identified early by the global authorities on her world that identify and track super-powered and potentially superpowered persons in her version of Earth. Her intellect and aptitude for science let her sail through overt programs designed to funnel the potentially powerful to become resources for the public good and while developing baseline empathy in a hope to reduce the number of potential supervillains. This was largely successful except for one major hiccup: her college/grad school mentor went villain and abducted her for a week she refuses to discuss with anyone.

After her abduction resolved with the mentor's incapacitation and capture, Elenore appeared to have lost her intellectual advantage. She was still remarkably bright, but no more than the average PhD student putting a solid effort. There were several minor attempts to provoke her to a return to greatness, but she was eventually written off as a casualty of a mad scientist's attempt to take over the world and started working as a lab technician at a mid-level biotech firm.

Content that she had been forgotten and ignored, Elenore started to slowly rebuild her sense of herself and her goals with her still extraordinary intelligence. It became clear, she couldn't fix what had been done to her but she could work to fix the mostly forgotten or ignored damage done in the wake of super scientists while trying to avoid causing similar harm herself.


Abilities: Genuis in the comic book sense of the word. Incredible ability to apply intense intelligence and background knowledge in the biological sciences. Give her some degree of technology/resources and she's able to make end products that are fantastical in a comic book super science sense.

Questionnaire:

1. What do they care deeply about? What kind of loyalties, commitments, moral codes, life philosophies, passions, callings or spirituality and faith do they have? How do these tend to be expressed?

She believes that science should be used to make the world better and frequently does the opposite because of the difficulties of it being interpreted and used by people, who are inherently flawed. She believes that it's worth fighting for a better world, even if she'll never see it, and that it's vital to work to fix things that have been damaged. She actually likes people though she can struggle to relate to them and innately does not trust them. While she would claim that 'do no unnecessary harm' is a major sticking point in her worldview and motivations, 'necessary' and 'harm' both offer her a fair amount of wiggle room especially since there is a part of her that could become extremely focused on revenge if she indulged herself. But seeking good rather than becoming like the mentor she trusted who caused her great harm in his self-centered misanthropy functions as her most true guiding light.


2. What kind of person could they become in the future? What are some developmental paths that they could take: best, worst, most likely?
Best - Gets over her fear of causing harm by taking large scale actions, works as part of a coalition of very smart people to reverse a significant amount of the harm done to the planet by humanity, maintains a group of rewarding interpersonal relationships while still exploring scientific concepts for the joy of it in her greenhouse.
Worst - A) The unprocessed trauma becomes something she uses to justify a series of terrible, violent decisions in which she becomes a supervillain who attempts to eradicate humanity in the hope that nature resets or B) she gives up trying to do better things and becomes as unremarkable as she's been pretending.
Most Likely - Developing a small number of important relationships encourages her to take on slightly bigger scientific challenges that leave the world better for her having been a part of it.


3. How do they behave within a group? What role(s) do they take? Does this differ if they know and trust the group, versus finding themselves in a group of strangers? Why?

Elenore can be a leader but tends to lean into adjusting to meet the needs of the group with a tendency to fade into the background unless her expertise is called for. She's become the kid who asks if she can work independently on group projects. It's really difficult to say what she'd do in a group she trusts because she hasn't built a community/group she trusts. This can and should change.

4. What do they need and want out of relationships, and how do they go about getting it?

Elenore badly needs connections but is extremely bad at acknowledging that need or knowing how to maintain them. She will not seek them out most of the time unless she sees something that makes her curious or a problem she can solve. She needs partners that give her space and who understand that her needs are pretty minimal but very definite. Her love language is respecting her boundaries and understanding that when she's setting them that it's an attempt to sustain a relationship. She's willing to push herself to be more emotive when it meets a partner's needs, but she's not ever going to be gushy.

5. How do they understand the world–what kind of worldview and thought processes do they have? Why?

She is all too aware that the world is full of violence and terrible things, but she remains innately hopeful that humanity is capable of better if it can be kept from killing itself and most other things along the way. One of the most common independently evolved traits in organisms that survive despite being widely separated by classification, time, and genetics is some form of cooperative behavior. From bacteria and slime molds to the complex interspecies social behaviors of macroscopic organisms, she finds reason to hope in those patterns.

6. How much do they rely on their minds and intellect, versus other approaches like relying on instinct, intuition, faith and spirituality, or emotions?

Because of the baseline of how she functions, there's a very thin line between what Elenore would qualify as her mind/intellect and her instinct/intuition. She is definitely more of a logic and reasoning type by default but doesn't hesitate to trust her gut reaction about things if only because she aware of the research done into how instinct and intuition actually function as a product of the mind's incredibly rapid calculating power. Emotion is not her forte, and she can have a lot of difficulty handling other people's emotions in a way that's socially acceptable given her gender and age. That said, she sees the value in both her own emotion and the emotions of others. She's just not good with them and doesn't seem likely to try to get much better. On a faith and spirituality level, she just kind of doesn't engage in any organized fashion. The patterns and order she finds in the chaos of nature are sufficient for her.


7. What is something others might find intolerable about them?

She's a snarky know-it-all who tends to be more emotionally removed than women are expected or encouraged to be.
