snowvirus is an 18.5 year old member of the cult of xexdite. she is the sixth-born in her age group and the older twin sister of babygirl, chosen one. snowvirus resents babygirl for lots of things but including the fact that she is "leading on" their mutual friend and babygirl's partner herocare.
in childhood snowvirus was always a bit more anxious than the rest, crying when she stepped on ladybugs and did something wrong. she grew up in somewhat of a shadow of babygirl, who was much more outgoing, but she had an affinity for caring for others, when it didn't make her too anxious that she would mess something up. snowvirus has Worrying Disease which is definitely OCD but undiagnosed because there aren't psychiatrists up the mountain. at fifteen, snowvirus almost attempted suicide (a very different notion in the cult), but was caught by a babygirl. the twins bonded briefly as snowvirus vented her feelings and babygirl, who was a good listener, listened. but, feeling as though nobody, not even babygirl, understood her, just grew more angry that nobody else was like her, that babygirl was "born normal." this was not helped by babygirl revealing to snowvirus one day after dinnertime that she didn't really love herocare, that the sex wasn't good, that she only saw them as a friend. snowvirus was appalled that babygirl wouldn't do anything about this, that she was taking advantage of herocare, who snowvirus definitely liked more than a friend. on the first evening of the ritual preparations, snowvirus came into babygirl's chambers in the temple and they fought about herocare, babygirl saying it didn't matter and she was passing on soon but snowvirus' stance being that she couldn't live with herocare not knowing. snowvirus lightly strangled babygirl, who begged her to stop, so she did.
snowvirus is identical to babygirl in appearance, but she does not have a gap in her teeth or any of the piercings. she likes to wear flowers in her hair and is often a bit dirty in the elbows. her instrument is the pan flute, and like babygirl, hums idlly.
