Intellectual/Mental/Personality Attributes and Attitudes

Educational Background: Went to St Hilda’s throughout but in year 11 she got bet up badly (broken arm and lots of blood) by some friends of her brother. Feeling week and with a need to prove herself Katherine joined the night fight club where after 3months, was already in some of the top fights and beaten the hell out of 2 of the boys who bet her up. This is also when she started properly training in Shota kan Karate and exercised often to “prepare” herself so if someone ever came up against her, she could fight him or her off. Through the fight club, Michael found her and got her training in a police force. From then she went through the stages quickly and has become one of the young homicide detectives working in the younger squad.

Character's short-term goals in life: To get to the top at whatever she has to and to be invincible with time to sleep

How does Character see herself? As someone who works with people at similar levels to her, but she is better and they cant challenge that. She sees herself as that she her job is the main of her life but because she “rocks” at it, she can take it with a laugh and a shine of confidence

How does Character believe she is perceived by others? By her peers, a brilliant smart cop who knows how it all works and is fun to talk to and you can joke with her. But by the ‘bad guys’ – don’t bother watching out cause I have already found you

How self-confident is the character? Very self-confident, but if someone beats her, she trains very hard in order to keep herself “safe” at the top.

Does the character seem ruled by emotion or logic or some combination thereof?

What would most embarrass this character? Being beaten in a fight, wither the terms are fair or not.

Best Characteristics: She know how to do her job and is focused and ‘kick-ass’ when she needs to be. She will be you most loyal friend – if she believes you are worthy – and will keep a promise to the end.

Worst Characteristics: If you can beat her at something that she holds dear (fighting, maths) you will be her worst enemy until she smashes you at whatever you bet her at. Some come-back fight will usually end in something broken

Does the character have any prejudices? People who don’t live up to their word, but nothing else.

Additional Notes on This Character:

She doesn’t like acting without proper reasoning because she doesn’t want to become a “mindless” fighter who will take the opportunity for what ever reason.
