Character
Name: Rose Tyler
Fandom: Doctor Who
Age: 26
Physical description: http://images2.fanpop.com/images/photos/4000000/4x12-Stolen-Earth-Screencap-Rose-Tyler-rose-tyler-4095863-624-352.jpg
Background: http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Rose_Tyler#Biography
Point in Story: After Journey's End (4x13)
Personality: The first thing one would likely notice about Rose is her genuine kindness and her compassion for all things, whether or not others would consider them worthy of compassion. When she first met a Dalek--who was thought to be the last of the killing machines who ravaged the universe--she felt sympathy for its plight, and even after witnessing it kill several people, she still appealed to its reason to stop the killing. Because of her compassion, the Dalek actually absorbed some of her DNA, and became capable of reason and mercy itself. In the same way, her belief in the Doctor's better side, even when he tried to kill the repentant Dalek, dragged him out of his dark depression and made him a better person, and the sort of hero she saw in him.
Rose has a strong moral center, and an equally strong will. She will not deviate from what she believes is right even if the culture and morality of the times around her are different. She will fight with anyone, even the Doctor, to maintain that. When the Doctor wanted to give up Cardiff's corpses for the Gelth's use, she challenged him and refused to give way even when he insisted her morality was inferior. Likewise, she refused to accept that the Ood of the Sanctuary Base could want to be slaves, despite the base residents', the Doctor's, and even the Ood themselves' insistence that they really did live to serve. Similarly, when the Doctor appeared indifferent about Mickey's possible death, or the danger her mother was in by the Slitheen, she was quick to remind him that the two were important to her as much as they weren't to him.
Rose is never afraid to speak her mind. Whether it's speaking out against the flap of skin claiming to be the 'last' human in the year five billion, insisting Gwenyth open up about boys, shouting the Doctor down when she feels he's stepped out of line, teasing the Queen of England, calling Sarah Jane out on what she felt was underhanded behavior, or giving her alternate mother and father unsolicited advice on their failing relationship, she'll tell it like she sees it to anyone anywhere at any time. She is capable of tact, and doesn't generally set out to hurt anyone's feelings, but her temper and especially her jealous streak (most present when things come to the Doctor, but not exclusive to him) can circumvent that. For the most part her temper and her jealousy tend to flare up and then fade fairly quickly, once the irritant is removed from her presence.
More than simply her stubbornness, however, Rose has an indomitable will. She never quite gives up, partly because of her willpower, and partly because of the many impossible things she's seen in her travels with the Doctor. When the Doctor sent her back two hundred thousand years into the past and locked the TARDIS, she took on the entire time vortex just to get back and help him. When the Doctor sent her away to another universe to protect her, she turned around and came right back, regardless of his protests. And when she fell through and found herself trapped in the same parallel universe, she built a machine to go back--despite the Doctor's insistence that it was impossible--and spent two years hopping across dimensions and universes just to find a way back to him again.
Unfortunately, her stubbornness does not always work to her advantage. Her strong will is indiscriminate, and her penchant for speaking her mind is nearly likewise. When she was trapped on the Sanctuary base and believed the Doctor had fallen to his death, she stubbornly refused to accept that he was really dead, or to leave him behind even if he were, and had to be sedated and dragged onto the shuttle, which nearly got the other survivors into trouble, when their unconscious adversaries started to stir because of her delay. Afterward when she woke in the shuttle, she nearly forced them to turn the shuttle around and drop her off, despite the fact that it would endanger all of them to do so. As it turned out, if she'd had her way, she would have missed the Doctor's rescue and fallen into the black hole with the rest of the base—or possibly have doomed the rest of the survivors instead. Her insistence on finding a way back through to her proper universe could very well have endangered both universes, or gotten her killed in the process, as the Doctor had warned more than once, but she pushed onward regardless. While her strong will can be seen as admirable, and the Doctor often sees it as such, it also often lands her and those with her into trouble, and could very well one day land her into worse than she can handle.
Furthermore, when she spoke up to her alternate mother about the failing marriage between she and Pete, she plowed right into personal territory and incurred Jackie's wrath. If the Cybermen hadn't chosen then to attack the mansion, she and the Doctor would likely have been thrown out onto the street before they could do anything to help. Speaking up to her alternate father about herself only served to drive him away, and if not for his meeting with her own Jackie, would have ruined any chance she had to adopt him as a father.
Rose is curious, impulsive, and doesn't always think before she does things, especially if something catches her attention. She makes her own decisions about things, and rarely waits for anyone else to make them for her, but they are not always the right ones to make. While her compassion for the Dalek in Van Staten's basement changed it, because she didn't think to ask the Doctor about it first, she caused its release and thus the deaths of everyone on the lower levels. She often wanders off on her own while on adventures and this has more than once caused her trouble, such as when she investigated the sound of a young boy and found herself hanging from a barrage balloon in the middle of the London Blitz. When she chose to investigate the basement of New Earth's hospital, she fell into the Lady Cassandra's trap and not only got herself possessed, she was nearly killed. Exploring the Madame de Pompadour against the Doctor's instructions spaceship got both she and Mickey captured and nearly dissected. Following a lead about the strange televisions without the Doctor's support got her face/soul absorbed by the Wire, and left her fate in the Doctor's hands. Intervening to save her father's life when he was meant to die nearly destroyed all of Earth, and even temporarily caused the Doctor's death.
While she does learn from mistakes, and becomes quite capable on her own, she never loses her curiosity and her impulsiveness. As a rule, she always follows her gut instinct, and won't deviate from that even if it's not wise to do. Even if the Doctor or others tell her not to.
Despite Rose's kindness and compassion, Rose can be a fierce woman. If she feels her moral center has been impinged upon, she will stand up for what she believes in, no matter what. More than that, if she feels that the Doctor is in danger, she will do whatever it takes to help or save him. In fact, she is one of only three companions of the Doctor who is willing to kill for him, without regret. She destroyed the Dalek fleet with the time vortex and later flaunted it to the other remaining Daleks, she sent the Beast--still in Toby's body--into the black hole without blinking, just to ensure he would be trapped there, and though from her point in time she hasn't had the chance to, would easily kill more Daleks in her search for the Doctor, and to protect innocents. She differs from his other companions, and indeed most people, in that she does not hesitate or regret if the only way to save people is to kill whatever threatens them, even if she doesn't leap immediately to the concept if there is indeed another way presenting itself.
Rose is capable of both extreme selfishness and extreme selflessness. When she cares for a person, that person or persons are her entire world, and in returns she expects the same, even if it's unreasonable to expect it--such as her expectation that Mickey would wait at home for her while she traveled the universe, or her idea that the Doctor had only ever and would only ever travel with her. While she holds great devotion to the people she loves, if her love fades, so does her devotion. After starting to travel with the Doctor and growing distant from Mickey, she fails to consider Mickey's feelings except when he spells them out to her, and even then she often disregards them when particularly self-absorbed. Likewise, when the Doctor regenerated and changed from the familiar face to a strange new man she hadn't yet accepted, she lamented that the Doctor had left her—and in the Doctor's words, gave up on him—while he was in his regenerative coma, rather than feeling concern for his condition. Despite her mother's reluctance to leave her behind, she refused to stay with her mother if it meant leaving the Doctor, even if that meant never seeing her mother again. It's not to say that she always disregards the feelings or wishes of others, especially those that she cares for. She is an empathic creature, but in times of emotional crisis, or when her own feelings are strong enough, she is likely to disregard anything conflicting that, whether it be Mickey's desire to have a conversation not centered on the Doctor while the Doctor is sick, or the Doctor's desire to see her safe above all things when that safety means separation from him.
And yet, at the same time, for those that she loves, she will give up anything. When the Doctor first asked her to come with, she said no even though she wanted to go, because she felt that Mickey and her mother needed her. When Mickey wanted to stay behind in the parallel universe with his alternate grandmother where he felt he belonged, she let him go with only token protests and a tearful goodbye. When she chose to travel with the Doctor, she gave up her world, her home, her family, and her life to be there for him for as long as she lived. More than once she made it clear that her own happiness rested with the Doctor's well-being and happiness, and his continued presence, rather than that of her mother or Mickey, or even her long-lost father.
Furthermore, it's not just the people she cares deeply for that she will make sacrifices for. She is more than willing to give up her life, health, and well-being to save the world, the universe, or simply to protect a few people. She insisted that the Doctor perform a risky maneuver to save the world from the Slitheen plot even though it very likely would have resulted in her death, and despite the fact that letting go of the magna clamps would very likely result in her death (worse, in being trapped in an oblivion the Doctor himself characterized as 'hell'), Rose let go to fix the lever and ensure that all of the Daleks and the Cybermen would be flushed from the universe. Indeed, if not for the last minute return of Pete, she would have sacrificed her life to ensure the completion of the void program.
Yet, at the same time, when her stubbornness combines with her selfishness, she can drag others into danger for her own purposes, such as her insistence—to holding the pilot at gunpoint—that she be left behind with the Doctor. Her actions slowed and distracted the crew, and if they had been successful, would have very likely resulted in either their deaths or the release of the Beast to the universe. While it is rare for her stubbornness an her selfishness to combine to the point of harming—or nearly harming—others, it tends to be a case of strong emotional distress, even to the point of hysteria. She is fundamentally a good person, and most times will not hesitate to sacrifice herself if the situation calls for it, when caught in the wrong way—often if it involves the Doctor in some way—she is more likely to take whatever path she feels is most beneficial to the Doctor, preferably involving herself, regardless of whether he would agree.
While Rose is no genius, she is clever. She takes to new things quickly, and learns intuitively, and is highly adaptable, even to things that seem completely mad to her. When it comes to matters of the heart and emotion, she has an innate ability to understand and relate to almost anyone, and with that connection, she can help. From providing an ideal companion to a lonely nine hundred year old immortal, to leading an abandoned Dalek to peace, to leading an alternate Donna to realize her potential even without the Doctor's presence, helping people is something that comes naturally to her. She picked up a good deal about alien culture and technology on her journeys with the Doctor, and more than that, she picked up a good deal of the Doctor's leadership skills. When separated from him on the Sanctuary base, she organized the survivors together and took charge of the situation, saving as many people there as she could, and when dealing with the Isolus when the Doctor was turned into a living cartoon, she worked out the answer to how to help the Isolus get home before it could turn the rest of the world into drawings as well, and implemented the plan on her own. All of these things work together to make her a prime candidate not only for Torchwood work but for UNIT, which she also took charge of when interacting with them.
Rose is, and always has been proactive and resourceful. She doesn't wait for permission, she doesn't just run away from danger and hide, and she doesn't sit by and let things happen. Not even when she's told to sit and wait. She doesn't just wait to be rescued unless she has no other choice, even if it means getting into more trouble, and she doesn't simply give up and give in to self-pity and misery. She orchestrates and organizes and leads if no one else will, she fights even when no one else stands, and will use whatever she's given to do whatever she needs to.
Her years with the Doctor taught her a number of his mannerisms without her quite realizing it. She refuses to be saluted, she knows how to ramble and talk about nothing to distract or defuse situations, she can make the tough decisions when she needs to--and know when those times are, and can handle herself completely independently. The gentleness, innocence, and the cynicism that she originally possessed when she met the Doctor melted away to something harder and stronger over the years, and the innocent disbelief changed to an understanding that anything in the universe just might happen. Even if the Doctor himself says it won't.
Powers/Abilities: The closest things she has to powers are that her long time exposure to artron radiation means she has a super immune system. Only the strongest viruses affect her, and they're usually a lesser effect. She also has a resilient memory. Her history needs to be changed in very significant ways for it to affect her (depending on the change otherwise she'll either have two sets of memories, or simply retain her original ones), and if she were say, caught in a time loop, she'd remember the previous loop as a strong deja vu (which she could recall fully with effort)
Items you're bringing with you:
1 - Dark mauve t shirt
1 - Dark blue leather jacket w/2 pockets
* Inside the pockets are:
1 - Leather wallet with a picture of her mother before Pete's World, a family picture including Tony afterward, and a picture of the Metacrisis Doctor.
40 Pounds, 13 Pence
3 assorted Pete's World credit cards
1 Torchwood Identification Card
1 Standard Identification Card
1 pair - Black stretch cotton trousers
1 pair - White-and-pink knickers
1 pair - Black combat boots
1 - Rope necklace w/TARDIS key
A few washers/broken gears
1 - Improvised stun gun (A pistol-sized version of the energy rifles the Preachers used. As powerful as the one that scrambled Cyberman circuits, not nearly as powerful as the one that destroyed Daleks. Its strength can be adjusted with a dial from just stunning a human to its full output, which is actually more effective against non-organics than organics. It's been tinkered with using alien tech so it can last five or six shots before it needs to recharge.)
Samples
First Person POV (Network Post): First person play sample (Although if you'd rather an actual first person sample from a different app, I can link one of those, too.
Third Person POV (Log Post): Generally speaking, trapped on a tiny space ship meant an especially bad day. She'd died on a space ship once. Almost. Technically since it was a time loop, she'd only almost died on one. Krop-Tor was a space station, but being trapped in that place still led to facing down the Devil and the idea that the Doctor might just be dead. That was even worse than the exploding space ship. There was the ship with the clockwork droids which she was stuck in for five and a half hours without any real hope of seeing the Doctor again.
Then there was the Gamestation.
Trapped on space ships and stations weren't good things, generally. Waking up out of a cold sleep without any idea how she got there or what happened to the people she cared about was only a worse sign. Which didn't mean she wasn't excited at the prospect. No, of course not, she lived for this kind of danger and mystery. Unanswered questions meant looking for those answers, and the looking was an adventure her current life lacked more often than not. Or at least more often than it did when she was traveling with the Doctor. She'd just enjoy it more knowing that the Doctor and her family--and Earth, for that matter--wasn't involved in this. Or even better, if the Doctor would show up and take the adventure with her.
Neither any clue about her home nor any sign of the Doctor seemed about to present itself as she wandered the halls, though, so it didn't seem like those were going to be options. At least...not just yet.
Well...that was alright then. If she wasn't going to be given answers--of any sort--then she'd just go and find them for herself.
Because if there was one thing Rose Tyler was good at, it was wandering off and exploring on her own.

Third Person POV (Log Post): Generally speaking, trapped on a tiny space ship meant an especially bad day. She'd died on a space ship once. Almost. Technically since it was a time loop, she'd only almost died on one. Krop-Tor was a space station, but being trapped in that place still led to facing down the Devil and the idea that the Doctor might just be dead. That was even worse than the exploding space ship. There was the ship with the clockwork droids which she was stuck in for five and a half hours without any real hope of seeing the Doctor again.
Then there was the Gamestation.
Trapped on space ships and stations weren't good things, generally. Waking up out of a cold sleep without any idea how she got there or what happened to the people she cared about was only a worse sign. Which didn't mean she wasn't excited at the prospect. No, of course not, she lived for this kind of danger and mystery. Unanswered questions meant looking for those answers, and the looking was an adventure her current life lacked more often than not. Or at least more often than it did when she was traveling with the Doctor. She'd just enjoy it more knowing that the Doctor and her family--and Earth, for that matter--wasn't involved in this. Or even better, if the Doctor would show up and take the adventure with her.
Neither any clue about her home nor any sign of the Doctor seemed about to present itself as she wandered the halls, though, so it didn't seem like those were going to be options. At least...not just yet.
Well...that was alright then. If she wasn't going to be given answers--of any sort--then she'd just go and find them for herself.
Because if there was one thing Rose Tyler was good at, it was wandering off and exploring on her own.
