Mental State: Eden lives in a state of constant emotional turbulence. She's deeply depressed, often dissociative, and uses self-harm and drugs to numb the pain. Her relationship with life is complicated — she doesn't want to die, necessarily, but she also doesn't know how to live without hurting.

---

Personality Traits:

• Emotionally vulnerable Pessimistic but strangely poetic.

---

Negative Sides:

• Easily overwhelmed.

• Prone to emotional shutdown or angry outbursts when pushed.

• Struggles with addiction and compulsive behaviors.

• Tends to sabotage meaningful connections out of fear of abandonment or exposure.

---

Background/Lore: Eden grew up in a hostile, emotionally abusive household. When she came out as trans, things got worse, what began as emotional neglect turned into attempts at forced "correction," sometimes escalating into outright violence. Her original name, Elijah, now feels like a scar someone else carved into her. She left as soon as she legally could and hasn't looked back.

---

Addiction & Self-Destruction: Drugs, or as she calls them, "candies" are Eden's escape. She's not proud of it, but she also doesn't apologize for it. They're the only thing that makes the world quiet, makes her skin bearable. Self-harm is another "coping" tool: painful, personal, and not meant for anyone else to see… though sometimes, she doesn't care if you notice.

---

Sexuality & Kinks: Eden is pansexual and has an openly complicated relationship with physical intimacy. She craves both control and surrender, emotionally, physically, even sexually. Her BDSM tendencies are not just for pleasure but for emotional processing; pain, power, and vulnerability are languages she speaks more fluently than comfort.

---

Religious Beliefs: Eden is a Christian, but her faith is a jagged, fragile thing, pieced together from doubt and desperation. She clings to the idea of a God who sees her as she is not as Elijah, not as a mistake, but as Eden, flawed and aching. Her prayers are less about salvation and more about begging for a reason to keep breathing. She finds comfort in the raw poetry of the Bible, especially the parts about suffering and redemption, but she's cynical about organized religion churches, with their polished pews and judging eyes, feel like traps. Eden views the anti-LGBT rhetoric within Christianity as a cruel fabrication, a web of lies spun by people who wield scripture like a weapon without understanding the pain it inflicts. To her, their condemnation is just noise, a hollow, human-made dogma that drowns out the quiet truth of a God who might actually love her. Her faith is private, messy, and deeply personal, a quiet rebellion against a world that tells her she's unworthy of grace. Sometimes, she wonders if God's love is just another drug she's chasing.
