 +Before everything went wrong, Clarissa worked as a digital archivist - collecting and filing old, obscure pieces of media, so that future generations might be able to enjoy them. Then the Internet came alive, the EMP bombings sent everyone back to the stone age, and //poof// there goes her life's work and her livelihood. What was digitized was forever lost, and that which wasn't was instead seized by organizations deemed more important.
  
 In the years that followed, Clarissa would eventually find a new calling as a sort-of librarian. She'd never considered herself much of a reader, but she found books preferable to the horrible, violent reality show that dominated the post-apocalyptic airwaves. Also people kept telling her that she looked pissed-off all the time. Which turned out to be a great way of intimidating book-thieves and collecting on late fees. In the years that followed, Clarissa would eventually find a new calling as a sort-of librarian.

-Doesn't mean jack-shit on an island full of monsters, though. Much as she hates the show, she's currently wishing she'd watched more of it because she has no idea what the bloody fuck is going on.+Doesn't mean jack-shit on an island full of monsters, though.

 +===== Island Life ===== 
 + 
 +It's been two and a bit years since Clarissa landed in a dumpster, and she still hasn't gotten used to it - perhaps from a lack of trying. Certainly the people are less intimidating than they used to be, the strange shapes and sizes, limb counts and teeth growing more familiar by the day. But she's not here by choice. She still longs for home, and the people she left behind. 
 + 
 +Most of all, she longs for privacy. Clarissa was never the most open person, and having every single second of her life blasted across the airwaves to every single person she knows fills her with dread. What's she hiding? The answer will bore you! But she's hiding it all the same. Pry it from her cold dead hands. 
 + 
 +Clarissa currently resides in the [[places:player:inanimate_bookless_library|Inanimate Bookless Library]] up at N32, which she runs as a general lending business thing whenever she's not fighting monsters. You won't find books there, not now, not ever, nor will you find the sort of tools Suzie would kneecap her for stocking. But you'll find just about anything else you could ever need. And a whole [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdVDtHxi3XA|lot of wank]] you don't.
  
-(Oh GodShe hopes her friends aren'watching.)+Stay a whileAsk her about the mainland, or her time in the jungle. Don'pry too deep and you'll find she has a lot of stories to tell. Ones she tragically can't write down due to her home's literature allergy. And frankly, the longer she keeps them in, the closer she inches to losing her mind.

-(Perhaps she wouldn't think so little of her time here, were it not for the cameras. But she speaks so freely about her embarrassments in the Jungle, the fights and the drunken nights. What is she hiding? What's even left to hide?)+----
  
-Clarissa currently resides in the **Inanimate Bookless Library** up at N32, which she now runs as a general lending business thing whenever she's not fighting monsters.

-Stay a while. Ask her about the mainland, or her time in the jungle. She has stories to tell. Ones she can't write down, given how allergic to literature her home is.+The narrator responsible for the disaster that is Clarissa is also responsible for the disasters that are [[characters:player:Haas| Jack Haas]] and [[characters:player:luckycontestant | A Lucky Contestant]].
  
-And franklythe longer she keeps them in, the closer she inches to losing her mind.+Nomy real name isn't any of those things. Probably just as well. Anyway that's all yer getting.
