Gwen Cooper-Williams

==Background:==
Gwen comes from an old Cardiff family. She was always the
girl-next-door. Attractive but not too pretty, smart but not too much
so. She was capable at anything she did, but never really
excelled...and that was okay. Until she met Jack Harkness and came
into Torchwood. Since then, she has brought heart to an organization
that otherwise disregarded the human element of what they did. She
introduced compassion, empathy, and strength because of her natural
tendencies. In Torchwood, Gwen found her place.
She's also done things she wouldn't have ever done before. She's given
the man she loves an amnesia pill, she's been shot, she's made hard
decisions in leadership. She's tried to balance her everyday life with
her husband with the demands of her job, which she truly believes in.
She believes that Torchwood can help the world and it's a world she
has come to understand is small in the universal scheme of things and
desperately needs the sort of strength, compassion, and attention she
can give.
She's recently lost two team members and barely recovering from that,
the Daleks stole the Earth and tried to kill everyone. Once they had
that sorted, Jack announced they'd be going to Switzerland to help out
Martha Jones.
Gwen comes from just after the Big Bang Day Audioplay Lost Souls
(which is approved canon in continuity).
==Personality:==
Gwen cares. Sometimes she cares too much and it gets her into trouble.
Sometimes, especially after Jack left and returned, she had a bit of
trouble caring about the 'right' things. She used to care about
victims or the weak. Now she cares about her team and her husband.
It's painfully apparent that she cares about Torchwood more than Rhys,
but that's the nature of the job.
Gwen loves. She loves Jack Harkness in ways she can't even define.
However, she knows what it isn't. She loves Rhys in the way that is
normal, honest, pure, true, and lasting. She loves Jack in the way
that will insure that she will never, ever tire of following him. She
would lay down her life...even knowing his is infinite.
Gwen supports. It was her job as a police constable, it was what she
learned to do early on. Support the victim, support the police. She
lifts everyone up, gives them a boost in moral, lightens their spirits
if possible and carries the burden when she has to. She's not a strong
woman and often bearing such burdens brings her to tears, but she
always, always carries on.
