Morgan
Characters Played Here:
NA
Character:
Thea Queen
Series/Canon:
Arrow (DCTC)
From When?
Last ten or so minutes of "Broken Arrow" (S3) when she was stabbed by Ra's Al Ghul
Previous Game(s):
NA
World Description: (Original Characters Only)
NA
History:

arrow.wikia.com/wiki/Thea_Queen
Personality:
If she was being honest Thea would admit she was a total brat in the 5 years Oliver was on the island. But before that she had been a classic good girl with a loving family and plenty of friends. She did change during that 5 years, quickly becoming reckless and embracing everything crazy. She also took to booze and occasional pills to drown her pain, quickly becoming bitter when Oliver does return. But over the 3 seasons to date (canon point wise) she's grown up emotionally and has become a mature young businesswoman in a happy and stable (well given that Roy Harper is also Arsenal) relationship. She loves deeply, is very loyal to her family and the handful she can trust and has been clean for almost 2 years (something she's quite proud of). Sure she's still got an occasional moment of impulsive thinking and is still a little reckless, but Thea Queen has become a fighter and a woman that nobody would have seen just 3 years ago.
Once she wakes up from the stabbing she'll also live in fear of having a relapse (she won't with people hopefully keeping tabs) while trying to understand a world very much not her own. Add in not having the people she loves around and cue a somewhat darker and rawer Thea. But once she can trust someone she'll quickly bloom into that confident and brave young woman she's quickly become.
Along the way I do want to explore the mental and emotional fallout stemming from her part (abet via being brainwashed) in the death of Sara Lance along with her recovery from the events leading to her being stabbed by Ra's Al Ghul. My plan is for her to basically be overwhelmed emotionally/mentally at some point to cue a small scale downward spiral via not eating or sleeping for anywhere from a few days to several weeks, This will hopefully be caught before she gets too sick and gives her that push into actual recovery.
I also have headcanon Thea's been in and out of depression for years (stemming from the Queen's Gambit accident and only getting worse when her mother was killed by Slade Wilson, usually she's able to keep it under wraps beyond family and close friends) which will be a factor in her recovery.
Does your character have any close ties to existing canon characters? NA
Why do you think your character would work in this setting?
Thea is an accidental arrival but she would see this as a very weird form of a second chance to start over and to somehow make amends for the person she had been. This settling would only force her to start facing her demons and to grow more as a person/eventual hero (since she's about a month or so away from taking over as Speedy, an idea she'll embrace with time). Plus she's also in recovery as an addict and being beaten to a pulp and stabbed can only trigger a near relapse. Basically she needs people more than she knows at the moment.
How do you plan to expand their CR?
By nature Thea is a social butterfly and once recovered from the medical part of her problems she'll be trying to find her place in New Dodge. Her ongoing mental and emotional recovery will also hopefully force her out of her shell along with working. She'll also have to relearn how to trust beyond her cast thanks to basically being betrayed by Malcolm Merlyn (her actual father), which will also be part of her journey in game.
What will your character do for work?
TBD once recovered from stab wounds.
Inventory:
Clothes/jewelry on her at time of stabbing (jeans, crop top, motorcycle jacket, necklace/earrings, motorcycle boots).
Archery gear (bow and arrows,quiver)
