IC
NAME: Noa
CANON: Sky Doll
CANON POINT: Issue #1, Yellow City
AGE: Unknown, but no more than a two or three years. Appears to be probably around her 20s as a human equivalent.
APPEARANCE: Here!
PERSONALITY:
Sky Dolls, as a default, are given no real personality of their own. Their personality only exists on a chip. Noa is different. Because she was created differently, Noa has a personality of her own. While this difference is not actually easily seen in the comic (those personality chips must be damn good), it is told to us. Noa is a bubbly and social Sky Doll--she has no problems at all jumping into a crowd, and is perfectly happy to introduce herself to everyone in that crowd. She's a kind and gentle person who doesn't like to hurt anyone. She would much rather help everyone she can. Because of that, she'll sometimes do things that she doesn't necessarily want to do without (much) complaint, but she's still strong-willed. She doesn't let people push her around too much, but she does have a certain amount of give to verbal abuse, considering the industry she works in and what she is. It annoys her on the inside, but she'll just confront it with a smile and be as nice as always.

She does have a tendency to be a bit sarcastic, but this is usually shadowed by how bold she is. Noa will plunge headfirst in a situation without thinking twice about it, making her appear a bit ditzy because of her naivete in certain areas. But she's brave enough to tell her boss to his face that he's rude and just generally a terrible person. Noa will say what's on her mind, but she'll try and do it in the nicest way possible. Still, she's much more likely to be sarcastic and a bit bitchy to rude people. She hates rudeness!

Noa isn't totally naive, though. Since she manages herself and has control over her life more than any other Doll, she has a certain amount of street smarts. She generally doesn't get herself into terrible situations. She has enough sense to pick her masters carefully enough. None of them have been exactly in the running for the Nobel Peace Prize, but good enough.

The thing that Noa wants to know most is more about herself. She is living a relatively easy life and has friends, but she's unhappy in a lot of ways. She feels different from the other Dolls, and without her dreams of Agape, she has no way to explain them. It's just a feeling that she always has that she doesn't belong, that she's missing something. Other than those kinds of self-identification problems, Noa is very confident in herself. Obviously she has no physical flaws, but she's happy with who she is--she only wants to know why she is that way and how she came to be. Because of the Mnemonic Limiter, this is more than a little difficult, but she believes that the answers are waiting somewhere.

But speaking of belief, Noa doesn't have much in the way of spirituality. She understands the basics of the religion of Papathea, but doesn't know much about its workings. She has catered to clients in the church before, but they were only clients--she didn't really bother to get to the point where she understood their belief system. Noa doesn't really believe that she has a soul, since she's a Doll, but would like to. Like many of the more advanced dolls, Noa secretly wishes that she was "human" (the species of Papathea haven't been given a real name yet), but she also knows that it's impossible. It doesn't stop her from wishing.

Since Noa is so social, she is easily able to relate to other people and make friends. Since she's worked in the sex industry and other various industries that require a lot of interaction, she's very good at being open and tries to be non-judgmental. Her bubbly personality plays off of other social butterflies, but she is also persistent enough to try and make friends with more ornery and socially withdrawn characters. She really likes to be friendly!

This is especially easy because Noa isn't particularly opinionated about anything. Since her memories only last for an unknown amount of time (probably a little less than a year), she doesn't really have time to form her own opinions. That doesn't mean she isn't open to forming them or to learning in general. Noa is very eager to learn new things, and is one reason when she likes to change jobs so frequently. Getting to know new things is an exciting challenge for her. She's a Sky Doll of average intelligence with no real aptitude in one specific area, but has good operational knowledge spread across the board.

Noa gets emotional easily, and will freak out if she thinks something has gone bad, or be sad if something is remotely sad. She's a very emotional android, which the Sky Doll corporation would consider a flawed Doll. However, to anyone outside of her canon, these would just be signs of a "true," rather than programmed personality.
PROJECTED CLASS: Oracle. One of the central themes of Sky Doll is about Noa finding her identity, and she attempts to do so through spiritual means when she can. Because of her hyper-religious world, she's drawn to religion and finding meaning in spirituality, since it helps her understand herself. Not being a great fit for any of the other guilds, she would naturally gravitate towards a guild that could provide her a chance of understanding.

SAMPLES
FIRST PERSON SAMPLE:
...Well! Um, this certainly isn't Papathea, but this isn't really what I had in mind when I asked for a vacation! I mean, when I asked God, if I could have a day off, he kind of mad not like that's unusual but I didn't think I'd get... I don't know, banished to a distant planet or something! That's what this is supposed to be, right? Oh, or it's a really good hologram simulation! Maybe?

[ She clasps her hands together like she's praying, smiling sheepishly at the camera. ]

If that's the case, I'm super sorry, God! Maybe the suggestion box was a little much, even if you should learn to take criticism a bit better! Oh, wait, you'll still be mad if I say something like that. Oops...

[ She smooshes her face a little in worry, but she immediately brightens, looking like she just remembered something. ]


Oh, I'm getting distracted! Just in case this goes to someone other than God, hi there! My name is Noa! I'm a Sky Doll! "It's not a real doll if it's not a Sky Doll," you know? Or, well, I was, but it seems like something fried my circuits a little bit... Which makes it surprising that I'm still operating normally, but there's no way I'm going to find a mechanic for diagnosti—Crap, I'm definitely blabbering now! Well, whatever, even if this is just a simulation, I'll do my best!! Now, to find that, um Godlings thing...

THIRD PERSON SAMPLE
It's strange, but it's wonderfully strange, too. She can't help but thing that, even though she knows she should be a little more frightened. But... She can't help it. She just feels different, in a way that she knows she couldn't explain well. All of the little blips of her sensors aren't functioning in the same way. The electricity isn't running through her circuits. Her internal clock isn't ticking down to her rewind time. She should have stopped functioning. But she hasn't.

And that's amazing.

She's managed to find The Godlings Sect after some trouble, but she can't muster up the courage to go in just yet. Instead, she's settled at the park in front of it on a bench. It's funny how odd the people here look, but she distinctly feels how different she is. No one has a tail, and their noses are so long...! But that makes her stick out like a sore thumb. She's heard a few people commenting on her tail especially as she had wandered around, which is why she's so nervous to go in.

...What if they don't want her? Then what is she supposed to do?

She presses the end of her tail against her lips with a pouting, but thoughtful gesture. It's no way to think, especially when so many things are going right for her, technically. She's been given a new chance to live without an owner and to just work without worrying about any of that. It's a happy thing, definitely! One hundred percent!

But she sighs, shoulders slumping.

She'll work her way up to it by the end of the day, right?
