full name: sofiya 'fia' callahan. literally everyone but helena calls her fia.
gender: cis female
pronouns: she/her
age: 31 by the time helena brings her back from the dead (although she's still debating if she's technically only 30 then - so, not counting the year of being dead) [x]; 25 when she meets helena [#]
race/ethnicity/class: white, earth-born, middle class. grew up in a pretty average middle class family and never really had to struggle much financially. but also doesn't particularly care for money in general, certainly has no ambitions to 'get rich' in any way.
describe them physically: 5’6’’/167cm, pretty skinny - has a tendency to not eat when she's not well, mentally, so having a few pounds more is actually always a good sign that she's doing ok overall. brunette mop of curly hair (very grabbable), big green eyes, some freckles. very cute.
describe how they dress: pretty normie white woman-style, like probably shops at space H&M or something. moderate amount of colors, cute summer dresses (more since she's with helena because she just really likes fia in dresses), or just jeans & tshirt. comfy big snuggly cardigans. shoe-wise either some cute flats or something with a little heel. occasionally jewelry, but nothing expensiveTM because she always lowkey fears to lose it somewhere.
favorite things: music - variety of genres. lazy sundays on the couch. coffee. getting fucked till her brain turns off. helena.
least favorite things: drinking whiskey - if helena tastes like it that's fine tho. spiders & a bunch of other crawlies. not getting taken serious. feeling unloved.
hobbies: reading - working herself through helena's vast library. going out dancing - alone, not talking to anyone, just her & the music in an anonymous crowd. getting experimented on.
quirks: fidgeting & skin picking, if you'd call that a quirk?
what's up in the romance department (and if they're aro, are they in a queerplatonic relationship): madly in love with the worst woman alive lmao. got lowkey dubconned by her boss into some fucked up sex thing, which went on casually for a while, until she realized eventually "wait fuck, i love her. uh-uh". well the problem is, helena doesn't feel the same because aro. by now fia has more or less come to terms with that. more or less. she's aware how imbalanced and actually unhealthy their whole relationship is, and occasionally is like "maaan would be better for my mental health probably to get out of here", but also "i'm hers and i don't know how to be without her" soooo that's not happening. my toxic girlies
sexual orientation wise - bisexual, and very much has a type of 'older than her, very smart, domineering', no matter the gender. also, shes the subbiest little masochist imaginable. would probably let helena kill her for sex-reasons, if she's really honest with herself.
best qualities: smart & a great multi-tasker, juggling a million things at once. pretty sweet & personable, like she's a really pleasant person to know, and very loyal. high pain tolerance? 😂
worst flaws: undiagnosed adhd & all the problems that come with that. kinda low self worth, deep down. hard time opening up to people & actually letting them close. kinda aimless & passive, doesn't really know what she wants in life. mommy & daddy issues, probably.
would you say they're a good person: i mean, she's not a bad person. i think she has the inherent desire to do the right thing, in the greater scheme of things. unfortunately she's in love with and works for a war criminal lmao. and there was a time when she struggled with that, but then she just pushed it aside and tried not to think about it too hard. it is kinda gnawing on her sometimes tho. so yea. i think she could be a good person, with better company. and in comparison to helena, she's a fucking angel anyway lmao
fears/phobias: weird irrational childhood fear of floating in space, alone and untethered - which kinda got worse after coming back from the dead, because this is now somehow a recurring nightmare. also a very deep seated fear of getting left & abandoned by the people she cares about. yea i'm sure her parents loved her enough as a child ✌️
