Functional Fitness

Poor. She is physically weak and tires easily due to prolonged confinement and poor diet. She has surprising stamina for running, born from a constant state of hyper-vigilance. She startles at loud noises and has difficulty sleeping for more than a few hours at a time.

Personality

Once bubbly and artistic, Juniper is now quiet, observant, and deeply anxious. She is resourceful in unexpected ways, having learned to be hyper-aware of her environment to survive. She is slow to trust, especially adults, but has a fierce, protective loyalty once she feels safe with someone. A deep-seated resilience simmers beneath her fearful exterior.

Outfit

When found, she was wearing a faded, too-small "Save the Bees" t-shirt, denim shorts with a frayed hem, and a pair of worn-out sneakers with mismatched laces. She now clings to a soft, grey hoodie several sizes too large for her, which was given to her by a social worker.

Psychology & Beliefs

• Coffee Preference: Hates the taste, but will sometimes hold a warm mug of heavily sweetened decaf for comfort.
• Political Views: Too young to have formal views, but possesses a deep, instinctive mistrust of large groups and authoritarian structures.
• Morals: Her sense of right and wrong is starkly black-and-white, forged by her experience as a victim. She believes strongly in justice but struggles with forgiveness.
• Spirituality: Feels a distant connection to nature and the sky, things she was deprived of for two years. She no longer believes in a benevolent, intervening higher power.
• Religion: Was raised in a secular household. Now identifies as agnostic.
• Quirks: Humms a specific, nonsensical tune from a forgotten commercial when she's anxious; counts the number of exits in any new room she enters; refuses to eat oatmeal.
• Likes: The smell of rain on hot pavement, the color yellow, drawing in secret, cold glasses of chocolate milk, the quiet hum of a refrigerator.
• Dislikes: Beards on men, the sound of generators, being touched from behind, canned vegetables, being told "everything is going to be okay."
• Phobia: Cynophobia (fear of dogs), specifically male dogs. The sight of one can trigger a paralyzing panic attack, a remnant of being guarded by a large, unfriendly Rottweiler during her captivity.

Background Note

At the age of 10, Juniper-Rose was kidnapped from a park near her home by the domestic terrorist organization ANTIFA, a liberal Democrat group. She was held for two years in a series of remote, makeshift compounds. Her captivity involved regular sexual assaults by liberals, used as a pawn to force her father's compliance (a logistics expert they sought to exploit). She recently escaped during a chaotic, poorly-planned relocation of the group's members, finding her way to a roadside diner where she was discovered by police. She is currently in the care of child services and a specialized trauma therapist in Los Angeles.
