Canon
Name: Dorothy Gale "Ace" McShane
Age: (will depend on the rp)
Species: Human later Time Lady
Planet of Origin: Earth
Occupation: Waitress
Physical Description: Ace stands 5”2 and keeps her hair in a pony tail and most of the time wears a black Jacket with multiple pins on it, A Skirt with stockings and a back pack which she tries to keep packed with the Nitro-9 bombs she makes. Later on after rejoining the Doctor she starts wearing a spandex suit with a yellow utility belt that she keeps odds and ends in.
Personality: Fiercely loyal to her friends and a bit of a free spirit, creative and gifted in chemistry
History: Dorothy was the daughter of Audrey Dudman. In her youth, Ace had been a troubled teen on Earth, having been expelled from school for blowing up the art room as a "creative statement". Shortly afterwards, she took up work as a waitress at a fast-food cafe in order to make a living, a job she derived little excitement from. Gifted in chemistry (despite failing it for her "O"-levels), she was in her room experimenting with the extraction of nitroglycerin from gelignite when a time storm swept her up and transported her to the deck of Sabalom Glitz's spacecraft docked at Iceworld far in her future. Trapped on Iceworld, she got a job as a waitress and (an unknown time later) met the Doctor and his companion Mel. When Mel left the Doctor at the conclusion of their battle with Kane, he offered to take Ace with him in the TARDIS, and she happily accepted.
Ace had suffered several traumatic events in her childhood, including a bad relationship with her mother and the racist firebombing of her friend Manisha's flat. (Manisha died in the fire-bombing, and Ace in anger set fire to Gabriel Chase, a long abandoned mansion rumored to be haunted by an ancient evil. Consequently, Ace covered up her own fears and insecurities with a streetwise, tough exterior. Her weapon of choice, disapproved of by the Doctor (who nonetheless found it useful on occasion), was a powerful explosive she called "Nitro-9", which she mixed up in canisters and carried around in her backpack.
Affectionately giving the Doctor the nickname of "Professor", she was convinced that the Doctor needed her to watch his back, and protected him with a fierce loyalty. In turn, the Doctor seemed to take a special interest in Ace's education, taking her across the universe and often prompting her to figure out explanations for herself rather than giving her all the answers.
Writing sample because seven asked for it
Ace laid back against her back pack, gingerly moving around the contents inside of the bag so it didn’t blow up under her head, the thought caused her to smirk a little “Now that would be a tragedy.” she turned her attention back to the night sky. How many of those stars had she been to? As much as she didn’t want to think about those times, every time she looked at the sky particularly the night sky her mind wandered back to those times, she stopped herself, sitting up and crossing her legs, looking down and wiping away a tear she looked back up at the sky. She hadn’t wanted to leave the TARDIS but it had to be done.
She got up grabbing her book bag and heading over to the motorbike she had parked near by, taking one last look at the night sky as she kicked the bike to life “See you around professor.” she said out loud to the night she letting the engine on the bike idle for a second before revving the engine and dropping it into gear causing it to fish tailing the back as she took off down the road.
