Character profiles of the Five Horsemen

Chapter 1: War

Chapter Text

General

Name: Kadira Bitar
Nicknames: 'Dira (mostly by Zack)
Height: 5'8"
Age: 28
Hair: Black, buzzed
Eyes: Dark brown
Nationality/Ethnicity: South African. Has trained herself out of most of her accent.
Appearance: Very dark skin with cool undertones. Has pronounced cheekbones and a runner's body.
Orientation: Kinsey 2.5
Scars: Numerous small scars from her unkind upbringing. Some noticable ones include cigarette burns on her hip and marks on her thighs that look like a belt buckle outline.
Personality:
Reserved in the company of anyone she hasn't decided is a friendly party. Can put on a good show of being a socialite due to extensive lessons in that department as a child/teen, but prefers to be solitary or with her inner circle whenever possible. Occationally obsessive and emotionally distant, as well as slow to trust. Quick to lash out verbally or physically if she feels threatened and responds poorly to any kind of coersian.

When in company she trusts she has a wicked sense of humor and a lack of propriety. Enjoys pranks and buying expensive things for her friends and generally being nosy and involved in their lives.

Generic History

Born to political figureheads, Kadira spent her childhood being (painfully) molded into the perfect daughter. Her mother was strict, aggressive, demanding and often abusive, while her father meekly let everything happen. She was raised mostly by nannies and later tutors and didn't make any friends her age. She has a lot of practical (and impractical) skills intended to make her an appealing sucessor to her mother's political career and was strongly encouraged to never have a personality of her own.

When she was 15 her mother was ruined by a political scandal and took her own life, leaving behind her husband who similarly withered away shortly after, and Kadira, who was shipped off to England to live with her aunt and uncle. It was here that she was finally encouraged to be her own person and discovered her love of computers and hacking. She has a huge inheritance and land/houses/etc back in South Africa but has sworn to never return.

Domestic

Possessions

Clothes
When going out prefers form-fitting, flattering business wear, generally used as part of her "professional" persona. At home she'll wear workout gear and comfortable leggings / tshirts / etc most often. Constantly steals other people's clothes if she's too lazy to find hers.

Weapons
x

Habits

Health
Big on endurance and agility stuff. Actively runs, usually 5-6 times a week and several miles each time and is therefore in great shape. Also eats very healthily; a leftover from her childhood she can't shake.

Morning person?
If scheduling allows, no but she tends to keep weird hours due to hacking binges. Her sleep patterns are unstable at the best of times so while she's quickly awake and functional after opening her eyes that could just as easily be 7pm as 8am.

Interests/hobbies/reading material
Technology, particularly hacking and computer hardware. Also likes watching the stock market. She'll never admit it in public but she actually really likes dancing.

Food and Drink

Food/taste preferences?
Prefers healthy choices and finds excess sweet/sugar distasteful. Frequently has a craving for something salty.

Breakfast
Fruit. So much fruit. Also yogurt (with fruit), oatmeal (with fruit), etc...

Drinks
Black coffee. The rawer and more bitter the better; just because she needs caffine doesn't mean she should enjoy drinking it. Likes fruit juices and generally goes for that or water with meals.

Alcohol
Most familiar with wine and champagne but doesn't particularly prefer either as it reminds her of her childhood. Will gravitate towards hard alcohol if she's not in polite company and required to put on a persona.
When properly tipsy, she's just a bit rowdier than usual and with even less inhibition. Rooftop leapfrog? SURE! Hacking into the Pentagon? SOUNDS LIKE FUN Upon approaching blackout drunk she gets unusually quiet, reserved and really clingy. She tries to avoid this whenever possible.

Inside

What do you know about them but they don't?
x

What do you know about them but they won't admit?
She's terrified, all the time. Scared of losing her independance, her friends, her life. Scared she's going to wake up one morning back in South Africa with her parents alive and everything exactly whow it was.

Favourite person (living or dead)?
x

Greatest fear?
Being powerless; without allies and without leverage to get on top.

Greatest regret?
x

Obsession?
x

Wants to please who?
x

Causes of anger?
When she's patronized, talked down to, minimized or otherwise brushed aside. Being powerless scares her, and that in turn makes her angrily lash out.

What calms them?
Wresting power away from whoever angered her. Being in control means things are back to normal.

Recurring dream/nightmare?
Waking up back in her childhood home with nothing changed. See above.

Flaws

Annoying quirks?
Stubborn as hell, even when she knows she's in the wrong. Tends to completely zone out when working on technology or hacking and won't respond to anyone talking to her. Tends to leave her technology projects in whatever stage of disassembly wherever she was working on them last.

Bad habits?
Terrible, terrible sleep schedule. Can be dismissive of other people's needs / prioritizes her own. Throws money at problems even if that isn't the best solution. Every anniversary of her mother's death she drinks to the point of blacking out to avoid thinking about anything.

Addictions?
Coffee.

How might they fuck up a friendship?
By trying to buy it with money/gifts instead of earn it.

How might they fuck up a romantic relationship?
Physical intimacy is easy; emotional intimacy is exponentially harder. She'll refuse to talk about feelings.

Biggest mistake they've made?
x

Mistakes they continue to make today?
Not getting therapy.

Physical shortcomings?
x

Emotional shortcomings?
A wheelbarrow full.

Intellectual shortcomings?
Not very creative if it isn't a technology-based activity. Not good at thinking outside of the box if it doesn't have a business application.

Something they overreact to?
Being underestimated or patronized.

What are they pessimistic about?
Relationships. With no good role models in her upbringing she's pretty sure every relationship is doomed to end in double suicide. The sex is good though so she'll keep her beliefs to herself for now.

What are they optimistic about?
x

Are they ignorant/prejudiced/judgemental about anything?
x

Are they ever a pushover about something?

What are they stubborn about?

What is a self-inflicted misery of theirs?

Sex

In general Kadira is usually the instigating and aggressive partner. She prefers multiple orgasms as quickly as possible, but is in no way above making sure the guy(s) have a good time too. Bisexual but far more into guys than girls (she has had a couple lesbian interactions in the past but always seems to gravitate back towards guys). She enjoys rough sex, especially in unusual locations, and may have a bit of an exhibitionist kink. Is absolutely a screamer (and a moaner, and a swearer) and loves pegging and topping in general. Generally very up front about what she wants and good at giving her partners what they want, but toppers beware, she’s not great at giving up the reins and becomes an extremely pushy bottom.

Turn-ons/likes/kinks:
-UNIFORM KINK AHOY
-Pegging (giving. Especially with her custom dildos c: )(actually custom gear in general)(leather can be very sexy)
-Wall sex. Or table sex. Or balcony sex. Unusualplaces!Kink go!
-Being “forced” to come several (cough 4-5) times in a row, although it makes her incredibly loopy afterwards
-WATCHING MEN GETTING IT ON (this is that exhibition/voyeurism thing kicking in)
-Orgasm denial in others – enjoys stringing them along but makes it worth their while in the end |D
-STRIPTEASES giving or receiving (ESPECIALLY WITH UNIFORMS)
-Handcuffs, although you'll have to pin her to get them on, make her incredibly horny. It's a good thing she's too good to get caught by the police much

Likes but doesn't know it:
x

Turn-offs/dislikes/squicks:
-Pain beyond, like, enthusiastic fingerprint bruises or nail scratches or some rug burn.
-Slutshaming, kinkshaming or any other kind of negative language directed towards her. Teasing is fine, calling her a slut/whore is not
-PREGNANCY she is on every type of birth control she can reasonably use together.
-Roleplay. Too much subtlety for her.
-Food in bed. Not sexy.

Side of bed?
Middle. And possibly on top of anyone else. Like a 16 handed octopus, this one.
