Position in Sector: Staff Doctor
Sector: American
Name: Evande Gemma Sterling
Gender: Female
Nickname(s)/Alias(es): Doc Sterling, Miss Pink, And Eva.
Age: Twenty-Five
Appearance: Standing with her above average height, Evande is a woman who is not at all taller than most men, but she tall enough that her height will leave some other females stunned. Due to the fact that she happens to be taller than most of the other women her age, Evande has a tendency to walk around with a bit of a slouch going on in order to try and downplay how tall she is for the fact that it tends to make her rather conscious of herself. Still, when standing up straight, as she should, Evande can come off as a bit of an intimidating woman due to this, though she doesnât mean for it. Given her height, Evande weighs in at a rather average weight, though she looks . . . a bit thinner than she really is.
Build wise, Evande is rather irked about this, but she takes after her American blood and thanks to this, she possesses a well-built body. Her figure is obvious; Evande possesses a thin waist that is very much a different measurement than her hips.
Also, Evande has rather fair skin, itâs clear and rather soft, and it looks healthy. At the same time, Evande possesses scars on her body, just from things that look like the normal childhood scrapes and falls, those sorts of things, luckily her face happens to be free of any scars for the most partâthough she does possess a single mark on her forehead, an indent which is the lasting result of a bad case of chicken pox she had as a child. Her face is soft and delicate, her features are subtle and simple, her eyes are caught between being almond shaped and round due to her mixed bloodline. But, her features are partly obscured by her hair, itâs long, thick and an unusual shade of pink. It falls to her hips, and for the most part, she keeps it bluntly cut at the ends. At the same time, Evande keeps bangs, which fall into her eyes and to the middle of her face. There are also sections of her hair that fall to her chin, and frame her face.
Evandeâs eyes are an ordinary blue, really nothing seemingly special about them, the color is very much normal after all. Yet still, when she smiles, they do seem to light up and have a glint to them unlike any other.
As far as expressions are concerned, Evande tends to keep this goofy smile on her face a lot of the time, and honestly tends to look cheery and sweet nearly at all times. However, it isnât out of the question to find her pouting on occasion if things donât quite go how sheâs expecting.
On one more note about Evandeâs appearance, itâs pretty common to find her wearing a pair of red plastic glasses around.
Preferred Clothing: Despite her being in a suit in her picture, Evande is actually very much a causal dresser, she doesnât care for formalities despite being a doctor, and really she prefers wearing plain old shirts, shorts, jeans and all that.
Height: 5 ft 6 ins (168 cm)
Weight: 137 lbs (62 kg)
Hair Color: Rose Pink
Eye Color: Light Blue
Notable Features: Pink hair, somewhat tall stature, her glasses, and the near constant smile on her face.
Personality: Highly spirited, rather blunt, she likes playing simple pranks on people she cares about from time to time, and she will sometimes do this to get them out of their doldrums or to release tension in a situation. Evande isnât past making herself look like a fool in order to get someone to crack a smile, to soothe a crying child, or to just dissolve a edgy situation; this involves her maybe tripping, falling in a comedic manner and possibly acting like sheâs stupid. She considers herself a people person, likable and fairly charming.
Capable of making friends fast, she is able to bond with others rather easy, getting attached at the drop of a hat. Once sheâs bonded with a person, sheâs liable to latch onto them at random, give them hugs and at times, tease them.
She does have some drawbacks to her personality though, she can be a little domineering. Evande doesnât mean to be this way; but she can get irritated if someone canât come to a decision quickly enough, and if this happens sheâll take control of a situation herself and make the choices if she sees fit. She always makes the hardest efforts in whatever she tries, and no matter how many times she fails, she has a will strong enough to continue trying until she succeeds. Eva is a woman adamant in never giving up. One to believe she can accomplish most anything, Eva seems rather bull-headed to most, yet very confident in herself.
At times, if things donât go her way, sheâll pout. Evande is a good woman with a strong sense of what is right and what is wrong; she is sensitive, bubbly and easily able to be moved to tears. Despite being a doctor for the Titan program, Evandeâs sense of morality seems to have remained intact, she actually doesnât favor or support whatâs being done the world over with innocent people, but still, she works with it anyway. . . . If sheâs questioned about that, well, her answer tends to be an interesting one at least. She claims that her reasons for remaining with something her sense of morals doesnât support is that she knows she couldnât ever do a thing to actually stop the Titan program.
Her heart is with the people who have been made to undergo the experiments to become a Titan, and even if she knows she canât make it stop, she wants to do what she can for those individuals, because they arenât experiments or lab subjects, they are people. . . . Evande doesnât want them to forget that, so as she serves as a doctor, she does her best to serve as a reminder to the American Titans that they are all still human, and that they are important people, no matter what the hell others tell them. And though she doesnât openly voice it, Evande holds herself in opposition to Dr. Blonde in mentality in regards to the Titans. Though she should probably fear the man, she doesnât.
The truth is that Evande knows of her own worth to the Titan program, despite her weirdness and not seeming it, the woman is a certifiable genius, she is an expert at working with people in Titan programs, her knowledge about dealing with anything that might go wrong with them is second to none, and she knows that no one could replace her.
Oddities: Sheâs a sleepwalker, and a talker too. . . . Donât ask about whatâs been said by her in her sleep, those are not appropriate things to repeat.
In all honesty, she has a tendency to drift off into la-la land when talking to others, meaning she slips in and out of conversations.
Charm Points: Her smile, and her odd attitude.
Likes: Books, television, video games, sleeping, daydreaming, being lazy, peace, animals. . . .
Dislikes: Dr. Blonde, when people get hurt, having to think too much, excessive labor, burnt food. . . .
Hobbies: Reading, writing, playing video games, sleeping, watching television, and daydreaming.
Fears/Phobia(s):
Neilasparophobia â Aliens
Skills: Working with technology, health-related matters, talking with people, trained in physical combat, capable of speaking in other languages, and also she can cook.
Personal History: Evande is actually half-Japaneseâher father had involvement with the Japanese Titan program, but uprooted himself to the United States for an unknown reason and met Evandeâs mother there. The two married, and had Evande, however her life was not a peaceful one as both the girlâs parents seemingly vanished when she was rather young. Because her father had been involved with the Japanese Titan program, Evande was taken in by the US government after her parents vanishing, and she was raised in a laboratory setting to take up her fatherâs skills working with Titan technology and the subjects.
Of course, because of how she had to grow up, Evande grew to be a genius technician and doctor, making her capable of working with the Titans from the get go, however, unlike other people who were working in the program, Evande had not lost her morality and sense of humanity. Although her parents had disappeared from her life at a young age, she could still remember her father and mother, and the weight and guilt her father seemed to carry on his shoulders. Thinking back on it as she became an adult, Evande came to understand that weight probably stemmed from his work in the Japanese Titan program, and he probably never really uprooted from Japan legallyâshe surmised her father had fled the country when his consciousness could no longer bear what he was doing to other people. As for her parents disappearance, Evande also had a theory to that; her mom and dad had probably been murdered or assassinated by either the US government or the Japanese for her fatherâs abandonment of his research and duties.
Regardless of the truth, the fact that her father always seemed to carry a weight on his shoulders reminded Evande, who had been more or less conditioned to become involved in the US Titan program, that the Titans she was undoubtedly going to be working with her human still, no matter what they had been made to undergo, they were human. She could never let herself forget that, and she felt it was her duty to serve as a link for those people made to become something more than themselves. Whatever had happened to her parents, that was in the past, she could only live on and do what she felt was right there on in. . . . That was as simple as it got.
So, Evande was deployed to become the staff doctor for the American Titan Sector, working with the twelve zodiac members there. In her time there, Evande knew several of the Titan members who have come, gone, and been replaced. Every time someone was replaced, she knew well enough what that meant, and every time it did happen, Evande was guilty of crying some, she didnât lose touch with her humanity, and because of that she remembered the value in the lives that were lost during that. Yet still, every time a new face would appear in the program, Evande would greet the newcomer warmly and do her best to be there for them as much as she could as a doctor and friend.
Before his death, Evande was friends with the Third Leo, and greatly respected him for his views on his humanity and how it was he treated the younger Titans. She tends to treat the boys who were attached to the Third Leo like younger siblings now, poking fun at them and hoping to keep their spirits up best she can. She also likes treating Aquarius like a younger sister, and adores her because sheâs such a small girl. And in regards to Scorpio, well, Evande hopes to help her in any conceivable way she can. As far as the new Leo is also concerned, Evande intends on treating her with warmth and kindness as she does with the others as well. . . .
Theme Song: Tower ~ Luka Megurine
The tears pouring down from the darkening sky,
are dying the asphalt surface black,
as though I can peek deeply into its heart.
At night when I threw away everything,
I climbed up that radio tower.
What can I see underfoot?
I could see unchanging bundles of light
as they became hazy and misty.
Probably nobody will even notice
even if I were to disappear.
The colors of the lights are just too beautiful.
Because nobody is looking at me,
I could just do whatever I please,
right at a corner of this hollowly gentle town.
Because nobody has ever touched it,
they forgot what it was over there on your side,
but I know that you will shake it awake.
Although, since I wonât be able to change myself,
I wonât be able to do anything.
Even if no one is listening,
I will sing only to you,
right from the top of this tall standing tower.
Probably nobody will even notice,
even if I were to disappear.
The colors of the lights are just too beautiful.
Because nobody is looking at me,
I could just do whatever I please, right?
I want to remain here.
I will never forget it;
even if you were to disappear,
your voice will echo even now.
Even if no one is listening,
I will sing only to you. . . .
Right on top of this tall standing tower,
of this hollowly gentle town.
