Kept thinking about that thread of Circusonas or whatever (TADC OCs)
And the insecurity of impostor syndrome, and honestly I'm having an idea of a character to fill the "Funny Mental Crisis" void that Pomni left behind.
>Character based around Ciaphas Cain from 40k
>Adapted unnervingly quickly to their "New Home" on the first day
>Straight up gave a handshake to Caine and everything, even told him that couldn't wait for the adventures.
>Acting friendly and helpful with everyone, even bubble.
>When an adventure starts, is the first to charge headfirst into whatever portal Caine opens.
>The first one to engage into combat or help any other member of the cast.
>Almost a mary sue.

>But that's only what it looks like to everyone else
>In reality they are constantly panicking
>"Ok ok, I'm trapped in this place apparently with all these digital monsters, and I also became one.. OK! Just smile and shake hands with everyone, like in a first day of the job, that'll help you look for an exit in the future."

>"No you don't understand, I HAVE to run first into the adventures, otherwise someone might see the fear in my face and they'll abandon me or leave me behind for being a coward, even if they all are terrifying I think it'll be worse to be alone."

>"Yes I fought that monster to help one of them the last adventure, but that was only because they yelled for help, and the others were looking vaguely in my direction, so of course I had to keep appearances. Stop asking!"

>"I was runing for my life back there! I only lead it into your trap because It was the safer option."

>"You don't understand, I am actually a cowardly selfish bastard."

>They are actually pretty skilled and not just lucky, but with every "undeserved" win the Impostor Syndrome grows stronger and puts them constantly on the verge of abstracting.
