Your name is LILY FROST.
God DAMN do you love MOBSTERS.
You have an EXTENSIVE INTEREST in PROHIBITION-ERA HOODLUMS and ORGANIZED CRIME. You hope to one day BECOME A MAFIOSO yourself, though you would like to believe you already have what it takes to be a DASTARDLY GANGSTER. If only you could get your hands on a REAL TOMMY GUN, since right now you only have your COLLECTION OF TOY ONES. You would have a real one if only you had access to your FAMILY HEIRLOOMS, which have been LOCKED IN THE ATTIC by your GODFATHER. While the ENTRANCE to the attic happens to be IN YOUR ROOM, it is unfortunately SHUT TIGHT with a bulky RUST COVERED LOCK. You’re not sure if your godfather locked them in the attic to test your or to torment you. You’re a GAMBLING WOMAN and you would without a doubt bet the latter.
You have set up YOUR ROOM to reflect your passion for those swingin' suited cats, making it look like a combination speakeasy-casino-flophouse. Your PHONOGRAPH plays your prized collection of FILM NOIR SOUNDTRACKS and JAZZ RECORDS. You also own one album of PAGLIACCI, since you can’t be a true classy criminal without an ITALIAN OPERA.
You are also a fan of MS PAINT ADVENTURES and THE MIDNIGHT CREW. You consider their sinister leader SPADES SLICK to be your IDOL. You think he is simply the bees knees, and try to be JUST LIKE HIM. As a result, you often find yourself flapping your gums a bit too much about just how swell you find him, sometimes annoying those who have no interest in your fandom. If you were to be completely honest, you wouldn’t mind being his moll and knockin' boots with him either. Too bad HE ISN’T REAL. Man, it’s tough wishing a fictional character would call you his dame.
Your CHUMHANDLE is overcoatAssociate. You type in “midnight black” (it’s actually just black) and speak with a lot of 1920s and 30s slang. After all, the first step to becoming a mobster is talking like one.
-Lily types in lower case but capitalizes proper I’s. Example: what da sam hill are ya talkin’ about, ya dumb mug? I’m gonna need so much fuckin’ hooch when I’m done with yous.
-Her name is a bit of a play on the term “to be put on ice.” Lilies are traditional for funerals and represent death. Her chumhandle is derived from Chicago Overcoat, mobster slang for a coffin (as we know from Lord English’s Cairo Overcoat), and “associate” in mafioso terms means one who works with mobsters but hasn’t been confirmed yet to be part of the family.
-She is 15 (Alpha Kids age), and likes drinking alcohol (though not nearly to Roxy’s alcoholic levels) and smoking cigarettes, mostly just to look cool and more like a mobster. Since she’s underage she usually steals smokes and booze from her godfather.
-She is based on the archetype of a fangirl who has a crush on and is obsessed with a fictional character, in this case Spades Slick from the in-universe Midnight Crew Adventure. She often gets much too excited about him and accidentally annoys others by blathering on about how much she likes him and The Midnight Crew; a bit of a tongue-in-cheek reference to how Homestuck fans sometimes bother other people not interested in Homestuck by talking incessantly about it, or about a certain character from it.
-She keeps her hair over one of her eyes as a tribute to Slick, since as we all know he lost an eye.
-Personal symbol is a snowflake, continuing her connection/theme with ice, and as a poke at “Special Snowflake”, since she has rather big ego while not being nearly as awesome as she thinks she is.
-Strife Specibus Submachinegunkind (specifically Tommy guns, once she manages to get real ones), and also occasionally Shivkind (knives) in her Strife Deck.
-Fetch Modus is as of yet undecided; either Blackjack Modus, where she has to win a game of Blackjack to retrieve the item, or Slot Machine Modus, where three of the item needs to line up on a slot machine in order to retrieve it.
-Derse Dreamer. The Midnight Crew were Dersites, after all, but she’s also a very active and initiative-taking type of person.
-God Tier is Thief of Blood, since she’s a wannabe criminal and blood connects to blood relations which connects to family which connects to the mafia. Also, how Slick (when he was still the Trolls' session's Jack Noir) and Karkat formed an alliance.
-Planet is The Land of Snow and Bullets (LOSAB). It is a wintery city (as opposed to the frozen wilderness of Jade’s Land of Frost and Frogs) with ammunition everywhere. There is a gun shop on every corner run by the planet’s consorts (free fedora with every purchase).
-Her guardian is her godfather and she lives with him in Chicago.
