Personality

"If I shock you, it is nothing personal. Unless you try something, then it is entirely personal. " 

Local electrostatic goth assassin for hire. Despite Inara’s apparent self-sufficiency and overall stoicism, she's constantly trying to prove herself to those around her. She holds a great deal of insecurity over her abilities, and often pushes herself to do more than she's capable of controlling. Paired with her inability, at times, to recognize when her abilities are overclocked, she represents a danger to not only those around her, but herself- even though she won't let herself admit it . As much as she wanted to take the place of her mother, codename Hellfire, she was told that she doesn't have the control required to take on the requirements of her job. In response to this news, she embraced the cataclysmic results of her powers surging as her greatest asset to fulfill the requirements of her assignments- and has found some comfort in this, if rather brutal, sense of purpose.

Story

When her mentor was killed in the line of duty, Inara refused to accept the that the hero who murdered her was justified in their actions. Halcyon's darling Whirlpool had been a longtime ally of Sapphire's, and for a routine mission to end in the manner it had, was beyond Inara's capability to believe. 

She resigned herself to whatever losses her actions would incur, in the hopes that the revenge she gained would be enough to honor her adoptive mother's legacy. She expected the stories in the paper that turned her mentor's lifetime achievements into a long-running scam. She expected the near-impossibility that was getting close to a hero protected under AEGIS's constant surveillance. She even expected the raid on her apartment as soon as she reached out to her mentor's allies to get the information on Whirlpool she needed. 

What she didn't expect was being held back by Whirlpool's apprentice, Daisy Christiansen. Or her sequential decision to face Inara head on.

Relationships

Daisy

Inara was trained to fight supers older than her, wiser than her, more deadly and jaded than her. And Whirlpool's apprentice was supposed to be all of the above. So when she met pink-haired, former figure skater Daisy, Inara kept her guard up and her expectations murderous. And despite her attempts to extract the needed information about Whirlpool's whereabouts, Daisy remained stoic and loyal- which was frustratingly misaligned to her general appearance and cheery demeanor. 

Worst of all, her attempts at intimidation were met with playful responses, needlessly entertaining chases, and annoyance, rather than fear. It was rude, and uncalled for, and Inara immediately found herself looking forward to their next run-in. Inevitably, they ended up friends, co-parents to a ridiculously tiny dog, and, eventually, roommates. "I'm just playing the long game," Inara would say, like a liar.

Yoda

Inara would die for Yoda. Upon her earliest interaction with the dog, she fell in love with the scrawny creature's ferocity and complete and utter unwillingness to let a gigantic, terrifying world overcome her. She's unable to touch Yoda directly, as a result of her unpredictable powers, but that hasn't stopped her from altering oven gloves and rubber gloves so she can still interact with her. She remains relatively removed, and talks to Yoda in a refined sort of way in public, but can be caught cradling her like a baby and speaking in a high, squeaky voice that makes Yoda do the adorable head-tilty thing puppies do. She'll never admit to it. .
