Name: Tabitha Oneiroi
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Personality: Tabitha has always been, in many ways, irresponsible. While she is loyal and trustworthy enough to friends and family, they all recognize that what Tabitha wants,Tabitha will do, and with little to no consideration to the consequences. Add to that her innability to make up her mind, and Tabitha has cultivated a reputation for impulsivity. Despite this oft-repeated criticism of her character, Tabitha remains incorrigible in her behavior.
Ms. Oneiroi has also cultivated a reputation as an exceptionally lazy person, albeit a competent one. When a choice presents itself, she will always take the path of least resistance. I almost everything she does, she gives the minimal effort. That lazy attitude has carried oger into her demeanour, speaking, and moving in a slow, almost lethargic manner. One of the few things she actually does put any effort into is her swimming, while in the water Tabitha is alert, animated, or in the words of her mother "finally awake".
As anyone who knows Tarot, used to be a practicing Wiccan, and claims to be a Lucid Dreamer, Tabitha has quite the reputation for being a bit of an oddball. Not that she has done anything to dispel this opinion of her, happily offering readings to anyone who asks, sharing stories about her years and experiences with her Wicca group. Regarding her Lucid Dreaming, she has always been a bit more tight-lipped, happy to explain or offer advice to any curious individuals who may be interested in experimenting with it herself, but rarely sharing her experiences, even when pressed.
History:
Tabitha’s upbringing was mostly ordinary, with a happy childhood, loving family and warm home, if a bit quiet at times. When she was eleven, her upbringing took a short detour for the worst when her parents briefly separated. During this unfortunate time in their lives, Tabitha found herself being used as a pawn in her parents games, each of them attempting to play her against the other to their own benefit. While not old enough to fully understand what was going on around her, Tabitha nonetheless felt used and slowly began to retreat within herself. Slowly, her parents began to realize the trauma they were inflicting on their own daughter. Miraculously, this realization somehow managed to save their marriage, and they managed to pull together shortly before their daughter entered high-school. Tabitha often wondered in her teenage years if after graduating they would begin to separate again. Whether or not this was their intentions at first, after graduating and heading off to college her parents relationship was stronger than ever before.
While in high school, Tabitha was an unremarkable student. As an athlete she was much more notable athlete, she and her swim team won one competition after another. She may have went on to have a long and successful career in the sport, if it had not been for a tragic accident. Heading home from a party one night in a car with some of her friends, all of which had been drinking, Tabitha nearly drowned after they careened off of a bridge - after passing out underwater, she woke up on the shore receiving CPR from her best friend. After narrowly surviving and losing two of her teammates in the accident, Tabitha chose to retire from the sport, to the dismay of her coach. She went on to finish her high school years uneventfully, taking up smoking in her final year, to the great dismay of her former coach, and parents.
In college, Tabitha studied philosophy, and began to experiment in “alternative spirituality” as she describes it to anyone who asks her now. She ended up joining a Wicca group, and remained with them until earning her degree. This is also when she took up Tarot as well as lucid dreaming.
After leaving college to enter the workforce, Tabitha discovered the stereotype of useless degree’s to be more than accurate - to her great disappointment. After working a seemingly endless stream of dead end jobs, she found a job working as a telemarketer. The job was not the most glamourous, or rewarding, but it did pay
moderately well, and it was easy, which was enough to convince her to settle for the moment.
Since beginning her telemarketing job, Tabitha’s life has become decidedly uneventful, almost boring. Her working hours blend together and she is more asleep than awake most of the time. At her apartment, she wastes away her time playing a MMO by the name of ‘Manabot’. In fact the few times she feels truly alive, or awake is when she is spendig times with her friends, so when one of them suggested a trip to Europe, Tabitha leapt to agree, happy for a break from the monotony. Even more encouraging, when she decided to do a Tarot reading for herself, the reversed devil chose to make an appearance. For Tabitha the omen was clear and her bags were packed, and the ticket bought the very next day.
