Vices & Virtues

tough After a childhood spent largely on her own, Gideon acquired a certain physical and mental fortitude. It doesn't matter if she's taking hits in a fight, or receiving harsh criticism, she doesn't stay down long. In fact, she's likely to bounce back stronger than before.
crude Despite a perfectly proper upbringing, Gideon adopted a sailor's mouth and a mind permanently in the gutter. In the beginning, she had behaved this way to get a rise out of her father. Now, it is simply a part of who she is.
loyal Gideon is not quick to trust, so when she does finally commit, it's for the long haul. She cares deeply for those she has allowed in her circle. She would do most anything for them.
Lazy When Gideon is fired up, she gives it 110%. When she's not... she doesn't. Gideon has a tendency to sleep in late, lounge around, and cut corners if it saves her a bit of time and effort.
charismatic After years of moving schools, meeting new people, and watching her father lead sermons, Gideon has mastered the art of communication. She presents herself well, and can get along with most anyone. Whether the interacts are always genuine or not is up for debate.
stubborn Fierce independence and a drive to succeed can make Gideon a pain to be around. She has a mile-long stubborn streak, and often struggles to admit defeat. Even when she realizes she's made a mistake, confessing as much is difficult.

HISTORy

At eleven months old, Donna Jo was adopted by Father Chris Smith. He claimed it was a request made by God himself, but DJ always suspected it was publicity stunt. Regardless, Chris (she never called him Dad, or Father, for that matter) did a decent job. He put food on the table, and a roof over her head, though the pair moved all over the country for his work. Father Chris tried numerous times to bring his daughter into the fold, exposing her to his Christian literature and sermons, but it never seemed to take. In fact, during her early teenage years, DJ actively worked against him. She skipped school, blared offensive music, and even threatened to get a tattoo. The streak of red in her black hair came from those rebellious days, and though she has since cooled off, she took a liking to the pop of color. 

Meeting Casey ended up saving DJ in a way she hadn't expected. Suddenly, she was channeling her frustrations into various video games. More importantly, for the first time in her life, she felt she had someone to confide in. With his influence, her endless need to "stick it to the man" simply wore off. When she inevitably moved away, she stayed in touch with Casey. They have remained best friends ever since. 

Though many see Aincrad as a prison sentence, Gideon's view is that she's free from a life she'd never really cared for; no more silent judgement from her father, no more drifting aimlessly, no more pressure. Here, she has a purpose, and the thrill of real death to keep things fresh. Most importantly, of course, she has Casey by her side.
