@samreaper@QueenOfTheBee I know. :( I'm sorry. Let's just hope Lady Luck doesn't do anything too cruel to them, yeah? Like she did to dear Rose...

@Morose Neither of them deserve something as bad as Rose's fate :((((

But we'll see. This is kind of like Final Destination - with all these people going away and whatnot.

@QueenOfTheBee It'll be alright. ^_^ In every RP with a more strict posting schedule like this one, people'll drop out. It's almost healthier for the RP that way, as it helps people realize early on whether or not they can keep up with a RP like this.

@samreaper Which reminds me....As you're now the only accountant we've got left, you and Aidan will get to interview a bunch of NPC characters to fill in. :) If anyone makes an accountant character, they'll automatically be the one hired -- if not, you get the pick of the NPCs until someone makes one.

I present to you our new accountant

[hider=WHY AREN'T YOU WORKING]


Kayla Archer




Character Summary

Name: Kayla Rose Archer
Aliases: Kayla Moon
Age: 31
Birthday: December 24th, 1985
Ethnicity: Korean-American
Birth Place: Seattle, Washington
Years With Dunder Mifflin 0
Gender: Female
Major/Minor: Master's in Professional Accounting with a minor in Economics from the University of Washington
Occupation: Accountant
Languages: English and basic Korean





Appearance

Height: 5'7"
Weight: 130 lbs
Build: Slender
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Brown
Skin Tone: Fair
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: Her daughter's birthday tattooed on her shoulder blade, very hard to notice, though.
Personal Style: Due to the necessity of her work environment, Kayla dresses very professionally with dress shirts and skirts and whatnot. Sometimes flats, and sometimes heels. But outside of work is an entirely different story ;)





Psychology

Focused * Introverted * Calculated * Untrusting Trait


Sexuality: Pansexual
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Kayla's mind is always running, her mind deconstructing everything into calculations. If she did x at y, then what would be z? She thinks in numbers, but she also has the capacity to think very articulately. No matter how good someone is at math, you cannot break emotions down into numbers. Kayla does have problems expressing herself and her emotions properly, due to the fact that she was raised in a household where feelings were very rarely articulated and expressed. She bottles up everything inside, the only glimpses of what she feels are shown by very tiny quirks on her face.

She prefers to be alone, or alone with her child. She understands the value of teamwork and being able to form relationships with her peers, but it's not something she likes to do. Not since her ex had destroyed her trust a while back. She finds it very hard to trust people as well, fearing that she'd be let down as hard as she was from her ex. The memory of the betrayal, the pain she felt is all too fresh in her mind and her heart, stemming into issues that manifest themselves into now significant elements of Kayla's personality. She wasn't always like this.
Habits: Fidgeting with her hands when she's nervous, sweeping her hair back whenever she's trying to get focused
Hobbies: Competitive Swimming, Practicing Tae Kwon Doe
Fears:
  • Losing her daughter in any shape or form
  • Being ditched by her lover (whenever she finds one)
  • Clowns

Likes: 6 minimal
  • Competitive Swimming
  • Playing with her daughter
  • Watching her shows (Grey's Anatomy, The Walking Dead, mostly dramas and stuff like that)
  • Really good food
  • Rhododendrons
  • Time alone

Dislikes: 6 minimal
  • Being let down
  • Olives
  • Non-alcoholic beer
  • Hard Drugs
  • Having to change her daughter's poopy diapers
  • Planned Obsolescence






Cards On The Table

General World Skills:
[*] Crunching numbers at a breathtakingly fast pace
[*] Electronics (prefers to let other people handle it though)
[*] Communicating as much as possible using as little as possible
[*] Intricate knowledge of how a business's finances are supposed to work
[*] Knowing how to raise a child by herself
>/list]
Combat Skills:
  • Competitive Swimmer
  • Tae Kwon Doe (Black belt, but hasn't practiced in a while)
  • Killer Stamina

What Is On Your Person:
  • Gray purse with a black wallet containing her ID, at most $250 cash, (Washington) driver's license, and a picture of her daughter.
  • Small bracelet on her left wrist which was made by her niece
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 5

Desk:.
  • Photo of her family, including her daughter
  • Three Pilot G2 Pens, one in black, one in blue, and one in red.
  • A Texas Instruments TI-83 Plus graphing calculator that she had owned since her freshman year in high school
  • Half a ream of binder paper so she could write down math in case things get too overwhelming
  • A USA Swimming calendar
  • Miniature 2016 Rio Olympic logo figurine
  • 2015 Lexus IS350 F-Sport






History

What Brings You to Dunder Mifflin: The whole business smelled fishy from the start, but the pay was good. As soon as Kayla had graduated from the University of Washington, she was approached by a company based in Bellevue, Washington. Promptly accepting the job, she took up a job among the adequately sized accounting department. Life was going smoothly until the president, CEO, and CFO of the company were all found to be embezzling money from the company as well as conducting insider trading with rival companies. The president, CEO, and CFO were all sentenced to time in prison and the company was promptly disbanded. Now that Kayla was out of a job and she had a daughter to support, the search for a job had become very urgent. She was willing to separate herself from her home state for anything. Reaching out to a friend, they had directed her to Dunder Mifflin, where she had applied for the accounting job.

Life Up To This Point: Born in Seattle, Washington, Kayla Rose Moon had become a member of an average Korean household. She had one older brother, and later along had one younger sister. She had been raised in a typical Asian fashion, high expectations that only grew higher as they reached them. As they grew older and became more skilled in tae kwon doe (which was mandated by their father, who made a living out of operating his own dojo), their parents started to really realize their potential and started to put them in all sorts of programs.

Each Moon sibling had their own specialty, and Kayla's just happened to be math. However, she didn't intend on having math be the only thing to her. She took up competitive swimming at the start of fifth grade, and also dominated in that sport. It took her all the way through high school, and landed her into the University of Washington, allowing her to become an accounting major while representing her school in swim meets. However, Kayla knew that her prowess in swimming wasn't going to last forever. At some point she was going to have to call it quits, and thus that lead her to choose accounting. Accountants made good money, and had stable careers, which was perfect for Kayla.

After graduating from college, Kayla had put her swimming career second as she had signed up with the aforementioned company as an accountant. She had a brief stint where she decided that she wanted to try going for the 2008 Beijing Olympics representing the United States. She made it onto the team, but she didn't past the first heat in the qualifying rounds in Beijing. After her Olympic stint, Kayla had gone back to her quiet life as an accountant. Life had been that way even past the 2012 London Olympics.

It wasn't until 2014 when Kayla's life had taken a big turn. She had met this person at a bar one night, and they hit it off. Perhaps a little too well. Drinks, good chemistry, and unprotected consensual sex were never a good combination. And then one day, Kayla discovered she was pregnant. She had told the person she was with about it as soon as she found it, and they swore that they'd stay by her side. It was foolish of Kayla to trust them. Kayla had gotten married about eight months into their marriage to the person who had gotten her pregnant, adopting their last name. And about a few weeks after that, Kelly Penelope Archer was born.

However, one day, when Kelly was about eight months old, Kayla's spouse had filed for divorce, justifying it with the intention of them not wanting to raise the child. Kayla was shocked by this, but ultimately had to agree. She retained her spouse's last name, and full custody of the child as she was now left to raise the child by herself. Kayla had the luxury of a stable job until the company folded, and that was when she was brought to Dunder Mifflin.





Extras

Character Quote: ""What we think, we become."
Theme Song: Lana Del Rey - Freak
Dirty Little Secret: Kayla's ex, and Kelly's father, isn't a man.
Also currently wears a knee brace, since she had injured her MCL recently due to her trying to train for a spot on the 2016 US Women's Swim Team at Rio.
Anything Else: See Emily's CS

*By submitting this CS in its completion I am stating I have read all the rules for this Rp and am agreeing to follow them to the fullest with respect and courtesy.

@QueenOfTheBee It's because you messed up the list coding for her general world skills. :P

But otherwise accepteeeeeeeeed! She'll be, conveniently, our first interviewee of the day. So you can have her arrive at the Office all nervous for an interview any moment. The interviews will be after the meeting. A few NPCs will show up, but she'll be hired.

@Morose What's weird about that is, it shows up as >/list] but when I edit, it shows up as >/list]

Also, that means I can double post and introduce her as soon as I get her CS into the characters sheet? I assume the relations sheet is yet to come since she's literally just coming in.

So I was prepping an update, and it involved someone getting to fill in as the receptionist. I entered all of the characters (even Aidan) into a generator, to see which one it would spit out...

....Chris Meyer is our temporary receptionist.....
