As for IdPersonas
Meet Tikki, a bulbous red flying sprite. She is the one representing Aisling's IdPersona. And yes, unlike with the faceclaim I did use the original name that was used for this figure and character. I'm creative like that.
Anyway, Tikki was designed and gifted to Aisling by her aunt when the elf came to live in the city from the farms and ranches. Seeing how the girl grew up in the rural areas she didn't really have a need for it until she moved. The girl had a little difficulty in designing and left the appearance of her IdPersona to her relative, trusting her aunt's taste and ability to create something cute, yet fitting to her personality. Tikki was its result and Aisling is more than happy with the little red of happiness.
Tikki is, much like Aisling, a very optimistic and empathetic being. However, unlike Aisling, Tikki has been designed to be a little more mature, calm and reasonable, so that it can look after the young teen. These are traits her aunt intentionally had Aisling install in Tikki, knowing that the little elf struggles a little with seeing the social borders at times and needs a little encouragement the other. As such the VI might also be referred to as her guardian angel, always sticking near her and watching over the elf.
Most of the times Tikki stays out of the way from interactions except from speaking with Aisling. It knows that others won't be able to see and or hear the VI anyway. They do, however, try to constantly direct Aisling in her actions. This is mostly the influence of her aunt, who is a little bossy, but also likes for the elf to stay out of trouble. As such Tikki can be extremely mothering, worrying about the littlest things regarding their owner. It can also be a little uptight, trying to hold back the elf from going out of the borders. A piece of advice that Aisling once listened to, but presently is getting better at ignoring.
Whenever Tikki tries to scold Aisling the elf gets a little sulky, pouting into the thin air, or sighs out her own discontentment. Seeing how the girl generally has trouble masking her emotions this is a frequent happening, often comically referred to as 'a divine moment' by her friends who know how to appreciate Tikki's interference.
Like with all IdPersonas Tikki functions as her personal information archive, her wallet and communication. As Aisling is still young and a little easily influenced Tikki is also designed with a hard limit in what money is spent. It also sends out a signal to her aunt whenever Aisling does anything seemingly out of character, such as taking the train to Downtown and or purchasing an unusual amount of food. Some might argue that this is privacy invasive, but it is also because the girl is still a minor without a real income of her own. Usually the elf doesn't really mind it, trusting herself as well that she wouldn't let anything too crazy happen to herself.
As the IdPersona is still a Virtual Intelligence chip Tikki is limited in what it can and how it grows. It won't act on its own without being asked to do so first. As such its reactions largely depends on Aisling activating and asking the VI to do so directly. However, with one special update from a few of her aunt's connections others can activate Tikki for Aisling as well. This is especially handy whenever the owner herself is out of commission, but can also be used in order to activate an extra voice to scold Aisling. With the code: 'Tikki, spots on!' the VI will react and start working on an emergency plan (which can also involve scolding said elf), or give access to a limited amount of personal information, such as a social number, address and the likes. This special password can be found in Aisling's pocket, as she has written down the words in case she ever passes out on the street and needs immediate help, but otherwise her closest friends and relatives all know the password by heart.
