For hundreds of years "Delilah" has been associated with treachery. Faithlessness. Harlotry.
If only they knew.
Working as a double agent for the Eclipse in the Military, she walks a thin line between life and death; and any one of the people she knows can tip the balance one way or another. She'll fall eventually, but which way?
Allies and Friends
Allies are hard to come by in Stronghold--Friends are even harder to find, but maybe they used to bone once upon a time and simply outgrew each other. Old partners from when Delilah used to work in the Task Force + Security Branches. Siblings-in-arms form special bonds when faced with the death of others or even their own.
Or maybe you're just out to enjoy life to the fullest and wand a hedonistic partner to gamble, drink and fuck your way through life? She may be nearing forty, but Delilah is always down for shenanigans of nearly any kind.
Relationship Ideas
- Eclipse contacts (smuggling + forgery)
- Military partners + co-workers
- Military officials looking for a "trade-off"
- Trouble-Makers + hedonists
- Childhood friends from the streets
- Bougie rich people looking for a vapid friendship to trade gossip and barbed insults with
Lovers
Delilah's lovers are many and varied. She makes no distinction between gender or age, including superiors and the occasional subordinate. From her youth she's left a trail of old-flames and shirked partners along the way. Her arms are almost always open, but the depth of her relationships are about as deep as a puddle on the roadway.
There's a significantly high chance of overlap with enemies or friends.
Relationship Ideas
- Rich Lovers
- Lovers with secrets
- Lovers with power
- The ever-so-deadly lover that might actually pierce through the barrier with sincere care for humanity and hatred for corruption that might also land you in the hot seat along with her
Family
The only people who know Delilah as Lily; the number is small and the names well protected. She cannot hide her mother, father or her daughter from the public eye--not without compromising her cover story, but found family? The people she met on the streets when she was young and the ones she met through Eclipse? Those she can keep secret and safe.
Hopefully.
Relationship Ideas
- Aforementioned lover who might actually be worthy of love
- Siblings from the streets who grew up in poverty alongside her
- Siblings + mentors from Eclipse
Looking For:
Percival "Percy" Odell - Husband
Enemies
Delilah is playing a dangerous game. As a member of Eclipse having infiltrated the Military, she is in a prime position to betray countless people. While it would likely be slow-burn, the possibilities are rife with drama.
As for immediate threats? Jabberwockies are always an option, especially after several years in the Security Branch dealing with all possible threats to the military within Stronghold. Shoot first, ask questions later paves the way for many, many people looking for vengeance.
Other options are the many people who've loved and lost her--including no small amount of people left wondering if she loved them only until her next promotion...
Relationship Ideas
- Suspicious Eclipse members
- Suspicious Military personnel
- Jabberwockies + other criminals
- Rivals for power, prestige and position
- People whose she's talked too much shit to and now want to make her eat her words
