Character Name: Ayana Darling
Character Age: 32
Diver Role: Security
Character Description: In her early thirties, Ayana commands attention with a striking blend of dark skin and carefully styled blonde hair, creating an alluring and unconventional appearance. Dressed in a tailored black suit adorned with jewellery, the ensemble is completed by a distinctive black top hat, with unique embellishments adding an air of mystery. Her facial expressions, often marked by a self-assured smirk, convey a sense of detachment and superiority, suggesting that she views herself above the mundane concerns of others. A habitual smoker, she is frequently seen with a cigarette, the act lending a performative quality to her nonchalant demeanour. Despite her opulent exterior, underneath lies the lean figure of a former mercenary, embodying a character who seamlessly blends elegance with a history of action.
Image Reference: Diver Rig: Clad in a formidable diver rig, she traverses the surface with an undeniable air of dominance. The rig, a robust and enduring relic of a bygone era, boasts a bold, rugged design tailored for resilience against formidable adversaries. Its dome-like head, adorned with an array of viewing ports, gives it an authoritative presence while offering a panoramic perspective of the surroundings. This mechanical marvel is equipped with a high-powered pressurized spear-gun, a fearsome weapon designed for precision and high penetration. Ingeniously, the spear-gun can be strategically ejected to anchor onto foes, securing them in a relentless grasp. On the opposite limb, a powerful, hydraulic-driven fist serves as a versatile appendage capable of grabbing, crushing, and bludgeoning with tremendous force.
Image Reference: Notable Character Traits: Ayana exudes confidence in every step, and her assertiveness is palpable, making it clear that she is unapologetically in control of her surroundings. Her facial expressions often carry a subtle smirk, as she views the world with a degree of amusement that may leave others intimidated. She is adorned in lavish jewellery, wearing her wealth like armour, with intricate pieces telling tales of successful endeavours. She blends the elegance of fashion with her own unique flair, challenging traditional norms as a symbol of individuality and sophistication. With her background, she is someone who embraces both the luxury and the grittier aspects of life as a diver.
Background: Ayanaโs journey began on a large island where resources were scarce, and life was a struggle for survival, with everyone fending for themselves in an unremarkable and unforgiving environment. Growing up, she learned early on that to escape the hardships, many turned to the profession of diving, seeking a chance at wealth and a life beyond the scrapheap existence.
It was amidst this backdrop that Ayana found her place among a pirate crew, one that became a makeshift family, navigating the treacherous surface world and engaging in daring missions together. However, fate took a turn for the worst during a dive gone wrong, leaving Ayana as the sole survivor. Adrift and with no clear path forward, she was unexpectedly rescued by a diving crew from Pitchguard who arrived seeking salvage.
Pitchguard, though offering a new beginning, presented its own challenges. Ayana, an outsider from a very different kind of island, struggled to integrate into the tight-knit community. The locals viewed her with suspicion, and negative rumors about her circulated, making it difficult for her to secure employment. Faced with limited options and a tarnished reputation, she made the decision to join a newly recruited diving crew, led by a young and inexperienced Captain.
Diver Reasoning: Ayanaโs choice to become a diver was born out of the necessity to escape the harsh and limited life on her large island. Faced with scarce resources and a constant struggle, she recognized diving as a gateway to a world beyond the unremarkable and unforgiving environment she knew. The allure of wealth, the close-knit camaraderie, and a life beyond the scrapheap made it even more appealing. Although her journey took an unexpected turn with the loss of her crew during a perilous dive, leading to life on Pitchguard, the desire for a fresh start doing what she knew best motivated her to continue her path.
