Greatest Strength
As a spirit, Paris is able to do ghost-like things such as moving objects around or showing/comcealing herself around certain humans.
Greatest Weakness
Like other regular spirits, there's certain humans that can see her whether she allows it or not, like Gingko. Humans with spiritual abilities great enough to see Gods can easily interact with spirits like Paris.
Trivia
For some reason she knows a lot of useless information as she spent a lot of time reading fact or world record books as a kid(if not dinosaur themed things). People watching lets her learn a lot too.
Dressing up
She's able to project herself in any fashion she wants, enjoying fashion itself, so she tends to change her clothes multiple times a day whenever inspired.
Spying
As a ghost it's easy to eavesdrop in general, unless there's a spiritually adept person around who can easily see what she's doing. It's incredibly rare. Even with other spirits she can make herself seem invisible.
Positive Traits
She's a very sweet person when she does care about someone, despite her stubbornness and crude personality most of the time. While she's bad with words or soft things, she'll occasionally do nice gestures, but is quick to stop if it's pointed out how nice she's being. With Ijus it's always her nicer side.
Neutral Traits
Her stubbornness itself could be good as much as it is a bad trait of hers; she's difficult to get information out of and she's not easy to manipulate(and she's a bit manipulative herself...)
Negative Traits
Her dependency to others is her worst quality; she's clingy with Ijus especially as she has no ghost friends anyway, and those who try to get close to her notice she's demanding and high maintenance. It's like an invasive little sister.
Others' Perception
Loved Ones
Those fond of her appreciate that she's good at getting things done when asked, and that she can be endearing underneath her exterior. She's also fun to tease.
Strangers
Strangers include humans she used to haunt for fun, afraid of her, and other spiritual beings who don't see her as a threat if she's just a simple ghost.
Enemies
Enemies find her bratty and difficult to work with, and easy to anger. They know she's childish and doesn't have much experience.
The following contains mentions of a child death
Despite being an only child, Paris's family frequently hung around Ijus' family when both cousins were born, the two seeming more like sisters as they latched to the other. Paris had always been the clingy one of the two, like a little sister always wanting to be at her side, even when her childhood was a short one; Early into her youth, Paris and her family passed away in an accident. Even if Ijus' family tried not to tell their young daughter yet, she'd found out Paris passed when she appeared before her as a ghost.
At first, Paris wasn't visible to her, crying to herself often that she'd become a lonely spirit. When constantly being around her enabled her to see ghosts, Paris was relieved, glad that even in her after life she could have Ijus with her. She wasn't that close to her parents in all honesty, Ijus truly considered her only family, especially when her parents didn't come back as ghosts with her. Watching her every milestone, protecting her, Paris was content seeing Ijus live her life and celebrate each good thing with her. As a child everything is excitable, but as they both grew up in different ways, the gap between them started to become apparent.
Paris wasn't the kindest towards others, spiteful towards girls envious of Ijus early in her school days. She haunted them, spooked them if they spoke badly of her cousin, but they couldn't see her. Correlating the supernatural events with the mention of Ijus, there was a brief time that she was picked on, the worst case scenario to Paris, but Ijus had the support of the boys around her. Around middle school, Paris watched Ijus grow close to boys and date a couple of them, flings that didn't last. When Ijus met Gingko however, another girl, the two were without a doubt made for each other. When they'd gotten married, moved in together, and so on, Paris had already become distant.
She could see that Gingko could see ghosts as well, but often hid herself to avoid her, the person who'd taken away the one most important to her. Spending most of her time wandering around, Paris did wish that she could have Ijus back at her side only, but was also aware that she deserved her own happiness without her. In denial that she could be in the way of it, Paris was open to any way of separating the couple, even if it meant running into the convoluted world of the Gods when she'd met Ephialtes. Suddenly hearing that Ijus was cursed by an evil God to pass away like she had early in her life, Paris blindly followed Ephialtes' instructions to prevent it.
Paris tricked Ijus into opening an urn with Chimare inside, hearing from Ephialtes that her release is vital to saving Ijus. Possessed by Chimare, Ijus's impending death was delayed, but separating the two become it's own hassle. Paris learned Ephialtes used the cousins to unseal their comrade, to move forward in a battle against Gods, but now they were roped up in it. Despite her intial anger over it, learning more about the circumstances, Paris agreed to help if ultimately they were getting revenge against the God that cursed her lineage's firstborn daughters to die young. Because of that God, the misery named Merikh, Paris had died.
Helping Ephialtes and Chimare to track down their sealed comrades, Paris looked for the Pandora's boxes herself. She'd come across other groups like Gingko's as she sought to get her wife back, and Isiktan's underlings like Matia. He was an insufferable person that often got in Paris' way, but he saw how she meant well under her prickly exterior. For a spirit to get involved in the matters of Gods, to save just one human, she truly didn't want to be alone in the afterlife. He was a spirit as well, working towards the safety of his sister, hoping that after everything is worked out, he could get along with Paris. At the moment she refuses his invitations to become friends, but if she's got a long afterlife ahead of her, she'll consider spending her eternity with someone else depending on the outcome of their goals.
∙ Character wise, she's comparable to Eva Heinemann from Monster or Mary from Ib.
∙ She doesn't like being around broken glass as her death involved injuries with glass.
∙ She is Ijus' alarm clock because it's not neccessary for her to sleep.
∙ Twirls her hair in her finger when she's nervous or trying to ask for something. If she's really stressed she starts braiding or doing complicated hairstyles lol.
∙ If you talk to her about dinosaurs she will not shut up. She's not open with others in general but if you know a little about dinos she likes you more...so Matia studies facts for her approval.
