Cherry:

-16 year old mortal; 100% normal human prior to death

-lesbian

-died on a red ambrosia flower and received a boost to her charm

-since it’s a boost to her trait, she can’t “turn off” her power

-it’s meant to be like Snake of Drawing Eyes from Kagerou Project, just without that additional part ab being able to sense where attention is directed

-her power attracts positive attention from other people. If she’s in the presence of other people, they’ll all turn to look at her instinctively, even if she’s covering her face

>people will automatically like her etc. and it can get to a point where she’s surrounded by a mob of people pushing at her and following her if she tries to run

-she used her power to become an insanely powerful internet celebrity (read: YouTuber)

>pays the bills, esp since she’s living alone in her house

-her house has memories of her past life, most of which she’s forgotten. Yearbooks, family photographs, and most notably, a group photo of several teenagers. Cherry herself is featured in it with her original eye color, standing next to an androgynous individual wearing a purple hoodie

-her intro thread technically happened twice: once on discord (with Bix and Mills) and once on the forums

-as a result of her first intro thread (discord) her best friends are Allen and Millie/Mills

-she refers to all non-mortal people as “magical people”

-her friends were killed by a malevolent fox spirit. They’re a separate character I have actually more on them later

-she was stabbed while she was running away and bled out on the flower, which sprouted in her throat

-a week or so after her death, Cherry met Allen and Mills, who tried to help her remember her previous life. First she requested to go back to her home (which was resolved off screen) and then she wandered back to her school

>she finds her phone in her school locker, but all the contacts have been deleted except for one. There’s no name assigned

>however her phone still has all the notifications from messages as well as a complete chat history. Most of the messages seemed to be about some kind of incident, with someone asking about who survived and another saying “I’m scared...”

-Cherry has all but forgotten her previous life now, and as a result hasn’t pursued her investigation

-her near kidnapping might’ve also contributed to that

>at the end of her forums intro thread, she and those who participated went to her house to figure out why she died

>that single contact remaining texted her, stating that some of them survived and that they needed to meet up ASAP

>Cherry tells the others to stay and rushes over to the location

>when she opens the door, the purple-hoodie figure opens the door, who Cherry recognizes. But she realizes after a moment that her friend never had red eyes before

>turns out the fox spirit can shapeshift! It melts into a puddle of shadowy tendrils and turns into Cherry’s brother

>she pauses but uses that time to yell angrily at the spirit. Then she runs again

>Mills and Allen eventually realize that something is wrong and go to the scene

>the spirit shifts again and wrenches Cherry from Allen and takes off

>gets stopped eventually dw

-so Allen got his free will snatched by Dahlia. Cherry has realized that and so she’s been working with Rune to try and get Allen back to normal

-either through Rune’s magic or Chan’s power, Cherry finds out that Allen lost his free will because of a deal. Dahlia offered Orphos good fortune and precious minerals in exchange for taking Allen’s free will

-the plan is that Cherry offers Orphos her power in exchange for Allen’s free will

-the power is tied to her flower, which is what’s keeping her alive, so when she loses it she dies

-Orphos receives Cherry’s power so it’s funny to imagine the god of deals and edginess getting chased by mods of people who think he’s pretty neat

//I discussed that last part with Bix and Ishmael chimed in too, now it’s a matter of deciding when and how to do it
