Character Name: Toshisko Sat
Character Gender: Female
Character Age/Birthdate [if unknown, make it up appropriately]: 3/14/1975
Character's Nicknames [if applicable]: Tosh
Nationality/Heritage/Species: Japanese
Occupation: Computer/Tech Expert for Torchwood 3.
Sexuality: Bisexual
Personality [include strengths and weaknesses. Detail required]:
Toshiko is very intelligent, but guarded and almost painfully shy. When it comes to her co-workers (especially Owen Harper) she is pretty much a push-over, often letting others walk all over her. But Tosh has an inner-core of strength and is quite brave. She puts her life on the line working for Torchwood and is constantly walking into danger. There is a lot of loneliness in Tosh, which can lead her to be taken advantage of rather easily. If someone shows her positive attention it can blind her to their real intentions.
Tosh cares deeply for her co-workers. Working for Torchwood doesn't exactly lead to a very active social life, and even before that Tosh was never the type to be surrounded by friends. Her team has become her family. She'll do anything to protect them.
Personal History [if known, brief outline]:
Tosh was born in London, but moved to Osaka, Japan with her parents when she was a small child, where she lived for a few years. Toshiko always did well in school, especially in the maths and sciences, eventually graduated and getting a job at a Ministry of Defence run research lab.
Well working at the lab in 2003, Tosh was blackmailed into stealing the plans for a sonic modulator. Although the plans were flawed, Toshiko built the modulator correctly. Upon handing it over to her blackmailer, Toshiko was arrested by UNIT. She was placed in solitary confinement in a UNIT facility for some time before Jack Harkness can to offer her a job at Torchwood.
Scenario #1 [response must be 150+ words. Be creative.]:
Your character has just been sitting at a cafe, when a passer-by accidentally spills coffee all over their lap. What happens afterwards?
"Oh god!" Tosh leapt out of her seat when the burning hot liquid splashed over her. The pain was brief, but intense.
The businessman who had spilled the coffee on her apologized profusely, but Toshiko waved him off, insuring him that it was fine. And no, she wasn't hurt that badly, and no she was she the stain would come out, and really there wasn't any reason for him to buy her a new one anyway, it was just some old skirt she'd had for years.
Those last two were lies of course. There was no way the coffee was going to come out of the delicate blue fabric. And it wasn't old. She had just gotten it last week, as a birthday present to herself. Owen had once made a comment that she looked nice in that particular color, and she had never forgotten it. She had been half-hoping that he'd see her in it today and...well, that didn't matter now. She'd have to arrive at the Hub covered in coffee stains. It was all typical really.
Scenario #2 [response must be 150+ words. Be creative and detailed.]:
Your character is walking down the street on a normal day when a stranger approaches them and tells them that they know what Torchwood is and what it does. Your character brushes this off with feigned confusion and ignorance but the stranger persists to an almost unnerving degree. How does your character react?
Tosh knew that Torchwood was pretty much the worst kept secret "secret organization" ever. But most of the people who knew of them, only knew the vaguest of details. They'd know that Torchwood tended to show up when freaky things were happening, but that was about it.
But the woman was currently pursuing her down the crowded street was different. She had originally come up to Tosh outside a book shop. Tosh had tried to brush her off, but the woman had gotten quite insistent. She had even grabbed at Tosh's arm as she tried to walk away. Tosh wrenched free and hurried away, currently trying to lose the woman in the busy street, but a glance over her shoulder told her there wasn't much chance of that happening.
With a sigh, she quickly reached up and activated her ear-piece.
"Ianto? It's Tosh. We've got a bit of a problem."
