Parker Jean Bishop

Hero/Anti-Hero

Most people just address her as Parker, even though her full first name is Parker Jean.

Female

23-24

Often comes across as aloof; never shy, but sometimes awkward/stiff. Speaks articulately and rarely uses filler words.

Intellectual stimulation, self-determination/power, success/renown

She is blunt and often insensitive, even ruthless. She can become obsessively single-minded when she sets her mind to something, to the point of disregarding ethics or potential danger.

She has a brilliant mind and a perpetual willingness to question the things that others take for granted. She is also incredibly resilient and self-possessed. While she may come across as egotistical to some, her killer instinct and unwavering belief in her own value to the world have carried her far.

She is quick to judge people she deems as "basic," boring, or coddled. She's had to scrap for everything she has, and her "question everything" attitude towards life has led her to many a dark night of the soul. She is reluctant to accept that anyone who hasn't experienced the same kind of struggle is truly worthy or fulfilled.

Working towards her PhD in cognitive science, and having graduated summa cum laude with a BS in computer science, Parker is an extremely skilled researcher, programmer, and technical writer. She is particularly knowledgeable about artificial intelligence and computational neuroscience, and she dabbles in robotics. She was also president of her debate team in high school, in addition to running track, and knows her way around a couple instruments. Suffice it to say, she's multitalented.

Depression. Exhibits some ASD and schizoid symptoms as well, but the jury is out on whether there's enough there for any actual diagnosis.

Usually just underwear and a tank top. If she needs to be "decent," she'll wear pajama pants instead of underwear.

"What's yours, you little bitch?"

"I'm not." (She probably isn't. If she is, there's a non-zero chance she doesn't realize it yet)

Not sensitive; some might even say insensitive. She isn't as utterly heartless as she'd like people to think, though. If she lets her guard down for you in any way, you really mean something to her.
