I have returned with lore, yapping, and mediocre drawings, and again, yap warning. It's a long one, so buckle up and grab some food or something.
I did minor edits. Are they good? Who knows. This is a broken apart character sheet (I do not know how Qiu and Tamarack stop being friends, for this I'm imagining there was maybe a huge fight or something. It will change if that's not what happens, maybe the game stated it, maybe it didn't, I don't remember).
Enjoy!
Step 1: Spark
Wonderful. Just great. Xipil was mad. Why must they keep moving? She's tired of her mom trying to get her to make friends. People are scary. Like, look at her cheek! Isn't that enough motivation to not want to socialize? What if people here do it again? Oh well. Guess she has to tough it out again. She's nervous, upset, scared and on edge. But then she meets a girl. Xipil had never seen someone so... pretty before. And she blurted it out. But instead of being met with a side eye or disgust...the girl compliments her back. She even smiles at her too, and offers to be friends. Huh. Maybe Golden Grove isn't so bad after all.
Step Two: Wildfire
After the fallout of the three neighbors, Xipil changed. She had been there for the fight. She tried everything she could to keep the two from breaking apart and be the peacemaker. In the end, it didn't work. Is it dramatic to blame yourself? Xipil doesn't know. But she feels guilty. She blames herself for it. Qiu and Tamarack are important to her. Normally she wouldn't care, but these are two people who helped her, who were there for her when no one else was. So for them to get into a fight that she couldn't stop, it scared her. They were there for her, yet when they fought she couldn't be there for them. Now, she's cold. Blunt. Even aggressive at times. She's emotional, and she knows it. But sometimes, you'll see her walking to each house, ready to listen to their troubles. Though, you'll often see her with Tamarack.
Step 3: Fire of Golden Grove
Four years later, after a lot of struggle and problem solving, especially with Tamarack's help, Xipil has gotten better. She's more confident, friendly, outgoing, talkative, and now makes jokes. Luckily, Qiu, Tamarack, and Renee are all friends again, and Xipil's never been happier. She's also realized she is in love with Tamarack, and plans on confessing. Too bad she's very prone to freezing in previous attempts. It doesn't help that Renee and Qiu tease her for it.
