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. I (Metalmind) will post a new match daily at about 6 PM PT, excepting brief scheduled breaks for Thanksgiving and one day where I have a prior commitment.
5. 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.
6. You are allowed, and in fact encouraged, to vote for the character you nominated. Or don't if you truly prefer their opponent, I'm not your boss!
7. Bumping support to keep this topic on the front page is appreciated, especially when I'm not available (typically from about 4 AM to 3 PM PT).

"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.

Oh hello! My name is Talirah Isiset. PRINCESS Talirah- err...perhaps QUEEN Talirah Isiset? That is silly. You may call me Tali, because we are friends now and my friends call me Tali. Or Sekhmet. But that one is a secret. My secret identity. But again, very big secret. You are not supposed to tell people who you are if you have a secret identity. But yes, my life is hard to explain, but what I have pieced together is that I lived thousands of years ago, and then one day I awoke in this city with no memory of myself. And now that memory has returned, and I am so grateful to this place; I will FIGHT to protect it.

Name: Talirah Isiset (aka Sekhmet)
Profession: Former Part-Time Library Assistant, Current Superheroine-in-Training (Ancient Egyptian Princess)
Age: 19 (3794 as of October 3rd, 1998)
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 134 lbs.
Setting: Tali is a character from an offshoot universe of the No Man's Land plotline of DC Comics.
Abilities: Tali is pyrokinetic, and in addition to creating and manipulating fire, she can also summon fire serpents.
Character Flaw: Tali is extremely naive and overly trusting, to the point of thinking up plans and making decisions without considering potential consequences, often to her detriment.

also you technically can but it's significantly more annoying, you have to manually add the quotes/tags
