CRAZY HOMESTUCKER HERE

My name is OJ and I am a Homestuck fan and therefore I am playing a Homestuck character and her name is Rose Lalonde and she was cloned from an ectobiological paradox slime and sent to Earth thirteen years before her cloning to grow up and help set in motion the series of events that led to her cloning from an ectobiological paradox slime.

...Wait, let me start again.

Rose Lalonde is thirteen, an American of Quebec descent (or uh she would be if she wasn't cloned from her mother who was cloned from herself - the webcomic clearly doesn't make one whit of sense without a few tons of context). She types in bold, velvet-colored Courier.

To put it bluntly, Rose is a child prodigy gone horribly wrong. No, she's not evil - actually, quite the contrary - but she is definitely more than a little paranoid (she often thinks honest actions are meant as passive-aggressive, and reacts accordingly, only for said sarcasm or passive-aggressive behavior to frequently fly over the head of whoever else). She has a secret hobby of creative writing about wizards, and more public interests in psychology and eldritch abominations. She'll sometimes try to psychoanalyze people as a way of getting to know them or otherwise trying to get under their skin. She reads Grimoires, of the Lovecraftian variety, of the zoologically dubious (that come complete with incomprehensible instructions on summoning said horrors).

She's grabbed from canon's EOA4 animation when she blows up her gate. A suitably tumultous moment to pull her from.

Rose is best friends with Dave Strider, John Egbert, and Jade Harley. Jade isn't in Paradisa. John and Dave are. This is why I'm here, at least in part: playing the kids off each other provides an interesting dynamic that I can never, ever get enough of.

I'll make this dynamic a bit weirder by noting that her Loss is... her vocabulary. Yes, the famed writer of the page picture on the TVTropes page for purple prose will lose her purple status and become just another girl with an average teenager's vocabulary. We'll see how this goes.
