Board 8 > [B8BOC] Board 8's Best Original Character, Day 8: Rayleigh vs. Winona

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm trying to push these earlier because I need to. Also changing the order (switching Winona's opponents), to better space Obrov's matches.

RULES:
1. Vote for the character you like more. That's it.
2. Each user gets one vote per match (no alts). These are one-on-ones, after all.
3. Rounds last exactly 24 hours from the opening post and any votes thereafter will be disregarded.
4. A new match will be posted daily by Andy or Metalmind, with a break for Thanksgiving.
5. Each vote counts - the votes are what matters most. The match's winner will get bonus votes equal to 20% of the total votes in a match, rounded down. Both will get the bonus in a tie.
6. Characters will face off against every other character in their division once, with division champions (most total votes) moving on to the Finals and runners-up to the Wild Card. If there's a tie, the tiebreakers are 1) whoever has more wins and 2) average margin of victory.
7. The users who nominated each character will be kept hidden, as votes are for characters, not users. Users are forbidden from rallying, including posting additional propaganda that is not already in this opening post, as this can give their character an unfair advantage.
8. Please keep this topic bumped to the front page!

Thats me. Gosh I dont know what to say. Um. Im a Physicians Assistant. I wanted to be a doctor, but couldnt afford medical school. I never had many friends in school because I couldnt stand how nobody wanted to get to know me as anything more than the hot girl on the chess team. Im glad thats changing, but Im too used to a small circle of friends. Relationships are more meaningful that way. All that notwithstanding, its my blood to help people. People tell me I overwork myself as if its a problem. All I need time for is video games with my foster brother, chess, yoga, and making people smile. And Im good.

"Believe it or not, thats really me. I live in Pittsburgh, where I work as a barista at a local caf. What Im truly passionate about, though, is my role as the guitarist and sometime singer of the band a few friends and I formed a few years back. I usually like to spend my downtime alone with my cat Possum, listening to music or playing video games. Uh, what else is there to say about me? Sorry, I know this is a bit awkward Im not exactly the most outgoing person ever."

The basics:
- Age 24; dyes her hair a different color every few weeks.
- Winona has a grounded perspective on life, in large part thanks to having to mature quickly in her childhood.
- However, among her many secrets is that shes a dreamer at heart; shes also capricious by nature, with a tendency to run away from her problems rather than facing them.
- Additionally, she has somewhat of a taste for the unique and extravagant, particularly when it comes to outfits for performances.
- Winona leans pansexual, but she struggles to come to terms with her gender identity and feel comfortable in her own skin, in part due to a challenging upbringing dotted with tragedy (in a small post-industrial town to the east of Pittsburgh) and strained relations with her working-class family.

Bump.
