Harpe

Harpe is an experimental weapon designed to incite terror amongst enemy forces on the battlefield. She holds supernatural power over light, sound, and touch granted to her by a beast she claims dwells within her. Harpe takes the role of an antagonist to the main group of 'Players,' but often takes up a neutral stance depending on the situation. Harpe is an empath, and her source of power is as she claims, intense fear, pain, and negative emotions of others, especially if she is their source. Due to this, Harpe frequently targets individuals and uses her powers bring about their greatest fears in an attempt to incite the emotions that power her. It is not yet known how Harpe is able to discover the fears of others so easily.

Harpe is 4'8", with black hair tied into massive messy pigtails. Her limbs are tube-like robotics which stretch to great lengths, and she prefers to dress in black and green, taking on the style befitting that of a saturday morning cartoon villain.

She claims to have been human, once, albeit many years ago. The organic skin on her face is supposedly the last remnant of her humanity.

Personality
Harpe is an incredibly irritable person, set off at the slightest inconvenience. Her usual default state is a simmering frustration or annoyance, made worse when in contact with others. She is sadistic, reveling in the feeling of terrorizing others, often cackling whenever someone's life is made worse due to her actions. She will often chide or tease people on sensitive topics when given the chance, and it seems to be the only time Harpe ever finds joy.

However, there is a dichotomy. Harpe has shown sadness in the face of others caring about her, and when those people inevitably become frustrated with her for her actions. She has even shown remorse and guilt on several occasions, albeit covering it with anger when she's able. She is the type of person to try and hide emotions she feels ashamed of, frequently turning away and growing frustrated when finding herself in tears.

Harpe harbors a deep self loathing that she does not keep to herself. She will frequently comment on how she will eventually kill everyone around her, and how she only hurts people, despite seeming to find joy in it in the moment. Harpe will frequently push others away using such statements as excuses, and despite her sadistic nature she seems to avoid terrorizing those who have attempted to become acquainted with her.

Powers/Abilities
Harpe is an empath first and foremost, capable of reading the emotions of others, and sometimes very specific feelings when focusing on a single person. Her abilities seem to also allow her to discover the fears of others without their knowledge. Her other capabilities in tandem with her nature make her a force to be reckoned with.

Harpe's power comes from a beast which she claims dwells within her body. The beast does not come out unless Harpe's existence is gravely threatened, the most common reason being Harpe running low on power. Not much is known about this creature, as it has only appeared once for a very brief time. Though Harpe has been witnessed conversing with it as though it were physically with her. Harpe has never referred to the beast fondly.



Known History
Not much is known about Harpe's past, but through small tidbits she has shared a very vague outline can be formed. Harpe was created by an individual on the planet of Paxis for the purpose of being a terror weapon commissioned by the System Alliance. She was eventually sold to the System Alliance, where a doctor Harpe seems to dislike worked. She was held captive to be used as a weapon on the battlefield, though at some point Harpe broke free, killing or otherwise harming most of the staff on location in the process.

Harpe has since wandered aimlessly around, terrorizing innocent people for energy and laying low, always moving. At some undefined point she was taken into CORE through the usual arrival process, ending up at The Heap. She proceeded to torture and kill a member of the Yakuza who had also entered around the same time. Despite Harpe's nature, this is thus far the only person Harpe has ever physically harmed on screen.
