Gwen Stacy The Amazing Spider-Man AGE: 20 DOB: HOMETOWN: NYC, NY, USA NEXUS RM#: 2016 PB: Emma Stone HAIR: Blonde, long EYES: Green HEIGHT: 5'6" COMPLEXION: Caucasian, pale with freckles Naturally pragmatic, Gwen appreciates romantic or thoughtful gestures but is not sentimental. She follows a firmly pointed moral compass, even if that means kicking the boy she likes out of her workplace or obscuring the truth from her father. Maintaining a clear objective is paramount to Gwen in all things, occasionally to the point of personal recklessness: Because she can envision a course of events, she sometimes neglects to acknowledge how her own limitations or the actions of others might skew them. She can't imagine that placing herself in danger could do more harm than good; she only knows that she can swing a trophy at someone's head or prepare a desperately-needed antidote. The result is a willful obliviousness that can and has made life significantly more difficult for the people who care about her. It's ironic, then, that Gwen is intimately familiar with the sick fizz of anxiety that comes from loving someone constantly in harm's way. She compensates for this by asserting control over the things she's able to, from her meticulous appearance to her grades. Prior to meeting Peter Parker, Gwen's life had been plotted along a straight and seemingly indelible line; while she can roll with the punches with all the deftness instilled by her father's example, from a young age her life has been neatly defined. When faced with the harsh reality of what Peter meant to do with his new abilities, her world tilted, skewed too far into the unknown, and her instinct was to balk, push away. Remaining in their fledgling relationship required mustering every ounce of faith Gwen possessed, which made it seem all the more like a betrayal when Peter later ended things at her father's behest. Gwen likes to believe that she's capable of seeing all angles, that her commitment implies as much; in reality, she is young, much more naive than she seems, and couldn't have possibly known what dangers and heartbreak the future held for them both. |
