Martingale

Created by Gris Lee

An internationally famous German actress and model, Martingale got in the business early as a child star. Her ability to draw attention was quickly taken advantage of by her parents. She shot to fame by her teens after a run of successful roles in some teen sitcoms. From there, Martingale got her own tv shows, films, photo spreads, fashion lines, the works. Just to have her a guest star was pretty much guaranteed success for any project. However, the fame was restrictive. Martingale's agent made almost all the work decisions for her. At times, she felt like nothing more than a puppet. She got to see the dark side of the industry, growing to resent the corruption within. Eventually, at her nineteenth birthday party arranged by her agent, she just snapped and wreaked havoc on the place. She took her long standing invite from childhood and fled to Gehenna, seeking freedom. Nowadays she continues to pursue fame, her face being plastered all across the city. But now, she does things on her own terms. She is not owned by Lucifer Broadcasting, and that is made clear.

Personality

Martingale is the epitome of fabulous. This eccentric diva is the centre of attention wherever she goes, from her wild personality to her unusual fashion sense. Her tastes are quick to become trends once seen by the public.

She's a creative type, gives no fucks and holds great disdain for doing anything by the book. Martingale is the type who likes to experiment with never before thought of combinations. Even if the experience turns out bad, she never holds regret for having tried. If she's given an order or a challenge, she will complete it to her own, strange standards.

Because she does what she wants, Martingale is usually happy to lend a hand. Doesn't matter if you're a stranger, she'll consider you a friend; she's just in it for the experience. Bonus points if you're feminine presenting, she'll throw in some playful flirting as well. Only setback is if you turn out to be a selfish prick, then she'll scold you and leave you.

One thing the cameras never capture, nor will Martingale allow to capture again, are her mood swings. The incident that happened in Hollywood is public news. However, it's not an isolated case, just the only one that had a major impact. She was privately diagnosed with BPD, but keeps this information to herself. She has learned how to cope with the symptoms, and quietly takes medication that she has secretly delivered from the Harmony Hospital in Nirvana.
