Description

Real Age:
25
Occupation:
Hacker
Gender:
Female
Orientation:
Sapiosexual
Appearance:
Tiny. She doesn't stand higher than 5' 3" and is not much more than skin and bones. Her skin is almost as pale as what one would imagine Snow Whites to be.... Pasty. Partially because she spends a majority of her time inside glued to the screens instead of soaking up the Vitamin D. Her hair is pin straight, and kept in a modern type bob. The color is a silvery grey that matches her icy grey blue eyes. She was never one to care much about physical appearances so she often wears clothes that are designed for comfort rather than style and she never understood the concept of shoes, especially when inside.
Reason for playing LAIOS:
An anonymous benefactor from the Pandora Gaming Corporation had a substantial bribe if she could successfully hack her way into the game. She would receive payment upon successfully killing the GM to reset the game and setting loose a virus that would corrupt and inevitably destroy LAIOS. She has little to no personal attachments so she stands to lose nothing if lost in the game, but a chance to gain everything if she succeeds.

In Game Appearance
The Horseman is anything but friendly and approachable by the looks of her. She is made to look mysterious and somewhat unnerving to those around her. Although her level is higher than anyone who has just joined LAIOS, she doesn't let her appearance out right shout her secret. Stature wise, she doesn't seem like much of a threat standing at about 5' 6" with a slender, impressive lack of bulk or muscle. Her skin tone would be all but a mystery aside from the rare occasions she undoes the collar of her attire which reveals pale skin that is nearly corpse like. Grim Reaper or Headless Horseman are often used to describe her and with good reason for they were some of the inspiration drawn to create her eery and unnaturalness she has.

Her eye color, hair color or anything above the neck are unknown for she is never seen without her helmet. Iron forged and shaped to resemble the face of a saber tooth tiger. The helmet is the only bit of color in the vastness of black that is The Horseman. It is painted yellow, while the saber tooth fangs are solid gold. Everything else is completely black. She always wears light weight armor that is a single jumpsuit type of apparel that is tight to the skin, but allows a full range of flexibility and movement. Her hands are always gloved and her feet are adorned in steel toed boots. Some venture whats under the helmet, but if they removed it they would be sadly disappointed. With being a glitch she isn't completely there and lacks a head in its entirety. Some how her character can still speak, but everything just stops at the peak of her neck which is the cause of her username... The Horseman.



Skills
Glitch Teleportation - Can be controllable or sometimes involuntary. It is a minor teleportation jump that has the reach of a maximum of 10 feet. For a second prior and following she flickers as her form tries to stabilize in the game, which at that point her body is transparent and things can pass through her.

Cyclone - Player grasps the scythe near the center of the hilt with both hands then begins twirling the weapon in front of them, on either side and above their head while they also spin leaving destruction in it's wake.

Glitch Pit Pocket- Can be controllable or sometimes involuntary. Hands become transparent and able to pass through solid objects, when an item is in their clutch it too becomes transparent to allow for easy removal. This also includes standard pit pocketing which involves light handedness and agile movements.

Stealth - Player can mover around without making a sound and unless directly looking at them they blend into the shadows.



Enhancements
Gloves: Deft Hands - Raises chances of successfully picking a lock by 100 points.
Body armor: Dexterity - Raises proficiency by 20% / Agility - Increases dodging speed by 25%
Leg Armor: Muffled Steps - Silences footsteps by half to increase stealth.

Likes:
Intimidation - She isn't here to make friends and enjoys when people are a bit apprehensive around her because in the end its for good reason.
Being a Glitch - Although it has it's down sides it also has its ups. she didn't have to grind to be at her level and it'll get the GMs attention so she can end this quicker.
Killing - Be it monsters or those trying to attack her there's a certain amount of a rush that comes from spilling blood and the adrenalin.



Image











Dislikes:
GM - Self explanatory.
Dishonesty - Although people may not like the truth, she always is upfront so she doesn't like it when others don't have the same decency.
Out Smarted - She thinks she's rather clever and hates to be out done.



Image











Strengths:
Group Attacks - The Scythe being a large two handed weapon is idle for facing large groups of opponents and dealing damage on multiple at once.
Agile - With her slender frame, light armor and glitching she can move and dodge quickly.
Stealth - Proficient in sneaking, and easily goes unnoticed.
Glitching - This aids in dodging, theft and other tasks.



Image











Weakness:
Physical Strength - She has a slender build, and being a human her muscle mass is lower than other species.
Guard - Two handed weapon doesn't allow for much defensive attacks. Also wears light armor.
Glitching - Although this can be helpful, it is also unpredictable so she could phase out in the middle of an attack, lag or freeze up for a moment or two.



Image











Fears:
Being Trapped in LAIOS - She didn't come here to enjoy the game and she doesn't want to be stuck in it forever.
In Game Death - She fears more than anything never waking up from this hell and being sent to another hell in a coma in the real world.
Those Who Know She's a Glitch - It puts a target on her head which makes her in game death more likely.

Personality:
Sassy ღ Intimidating ღ Mysterious ღ Independent

Lexi is sort of a yin and yang case when it comes to her personality. Although she tends to feel and lean a certain way, she is often timid and pulls back from showing her true self in some situations. Her and The Horseman are very much alike personality wise, but Lexi has to bottle that in the real world. She's so meak and small that saying the wrong thing could get her in serious trouble or worse. But if The Horseman says it, what can they do? She feels invincible in LAIOS even though she knows that she is far from it. Most compare her to a mouse but she is rather feisty when people get to know her and pieces of her true self come out.

Her Sassiness carries into the Horseman but doesn't have to worry about putting her foot in her mouth so much. She says what she wants to say, when she wants to say it with no regrets, and if someone doesn't like it they can taste her scythe. Her sass can also come off as a snideness and cold sarcasm. Every word is usually dripping with sarcasm and when something escapes her lips that's serious, people should heed it because that is indeed a rare sight.

One major difference between the two is The Horseman is very mysterious and keeps a distance when it comes to getting overly friendly. Lexi is very friendly but she doesn't want her ulterior motivates to drag others down with her in the end. She also feels that if some people knew the real reason she was in LAIOS it would just increase the target on her head and she'd never be able to accomplish what she came there to do. But also knowing the truth of what happens to those who die in the game, The Horseman avoids letting people get too close because she doesn't want that to happen to others from following down her own path of destruction.

The Horseman, although in a guild, in the end tends to go off on her own. This has a lot to do with the true reasons to her sudden appearance in LAIOS. She does wish to make friends but knows it's a bad idea so sometimes a crack in her shell can be seen into her friendlier side. But it usually doesn't last long for fear of bringing someone down a dark path with her.

History:
Lexi was always a troublemaker but good with technology so it was no surprise that she got a knack for hacking encrypted... Anything really. She remembered hearing about LAiOS since preproduction. It sounded almost too good to be true for a game. But once she heard that the game adapted and thought for itself she knew that was bad news. Artificial Intelligence of any magnitude was always thin water to tread on. So instead of joining in on all of the hype when the game came out, Lexi stood by and just observed.

It wasn't out for long when the news hit about players getting trapped in the game. She filled with a sense of 'I told you so' but still wished there was something she could do. She tried hacking her way in through back doors and past fire walls but there was nothing she could do. From her end the GM was too strong from her to defeat it from the outside. It got worse when they started realizing that those who died in game went into unresponsive comas.

She still had no desire to even meddle in the game until an anonymous letter came in the mail from the Pandora Gaming Corporation. Everyone knew this company was constantly battling the makers of LAIOS. The letter included a check for $1000 telling her that if she wormed her way into LAIOS, defeated the GM then set loose a virus in the game she would get paid a million. At first she thought it was a hoax until a week later a benefactor form the PGC came to her house with another $1000 incentive. They told her the moment the virus is set loose in LAIOS that they would wire over the million dollars to her account and all of her past criminal charges would be expunged. So with nothing else to loose... She hacked her way in, but now is left to her whits to escape.
