"I don't hold with paddlin' with the Occult," said Granny firmly. "Once you start paddlin' with the Occult you start believing in Spirits, and when you start believing in Spirits you start believing in Demons, and then before you know where you are you're believing in Gods. And then you're in trouble."
"But all them things exist," said Nanny Ogg.
"That's no call to go around believing in them. It only encourages 'em."
- Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies

"If nothing is wrong, nothing is wrong. If something is wrong, there is nothing we can do about it... so why keep looking?"

- Locals: Jessica has been around town for maybe two years already, spending most of her time working as a barista at a small cozy coffeeshop. Maybe you've run into her before, at least in passing.
- Activists: She's been getting involved with various activist groups recently. Gender equality, LGBT rights, non-religious charities, that sort of thing. Just about anything that strives to make life better and more fair. Might run into her at a meeting!
- Gamers: Computer games aren't just for guys. She's primarily interested in Minecraft, though she plays other games as well. Might run into her online, or at some game store or another. Do note that her pacifism only applies to real-world violence; she'll still gladly headshot you in a game.

- Aura of Tranquility: Jessica radiates a subtle aura of peace and harmony. When she's near (approximately 30 yards), foul tempers tend to cool and aggression fades away. Violence just doesn't feel important, somehow. She CAN turn it off, but it's nearly always active. Her Charisma + Empathy vs others' Willpower if they want to attack or spend Rage; if someone gets attacked anyway, the attacked person can defend themselves just fine. If Jessica herself attacks someone, the aura shuts down and she won't be able to reactivate it for the rest of the scene. Affected people also cannot Frenzy.
- Polyglot: Jessica is quite the linguist; aside from English, she is also completely fluent in French, Arabic, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latin and ASL.

- You Make Me Sic: "Reality-warping is one thing, but do you have to spell magic with a k? Proper spelling is important."
- Nay Theist: "Belief makes people stupid. Whether or not the belief is based on fact is irrelevant."
- Hive Mind: "The OneSong is a thing of beauty. We are all one, united in thought and purpose. There is no strife, only consensus."
- Mind Hive: "There is no 'I' in 'Jessica'. Well, okay, there IS, but... nevermind."
- Manchurian Agent: "Sometimes I just black out. I don't know what happens then, but the results usually aren't pretty."
