OUT OF THE GAME Upon first meeting, Taylor often appears confident to the point of occasional cockiness. A bright, cheerful demeanour disguises deep insecurity. Trapped in an abusive marriage, she finds it difficult to accept casual, physical intimacy, despite craving it. At her core she has always been a very affectionate and demonstrative person, but current circumstances mean she's much more likely to flinch away from such things. She craves independance and self-sufficiency, but has not yet been able to leave her partner for good. Aside from this and given the opportunity, Taylor is a friendly individual and takes to people very easily. She's very much an extrovert and would make friends with the whole world if they'd let her! Reckless but well-intentioned, the woman isn't usually one to carefully consider her actions before committing to them. She spends more time than she probably should in Unovr. Her husband is hopeless with technology and isn't aware that she's able to speak with real people in-game, so has yet to find any issue with it. This is something that she has very carefully avoiding correcting him on.

INSIDE THE GAME In-game, Taylor plays an idealised version of herself. To her, this means freedom, fierce independance and a strong sense of justice. Her confident, extroverted nature is exaggerated - she's very aware nothing here is "real". and with her husband being clueless as to how the VR experience works, none of her actions or inactions hold the same severity of consequence as they would in the real world. Very much the kind to champion the underdog and "save" those in trouble, Taylor uses her in-game avatar as a form of escapism, wish-fulfillment and reassurance. Perhaps one day it will help her build the courage to leave for good.
