Evelyn Poppet

THIS PAGE IS HEAVILY UNDER CONSTRUCTION."I used to think toys would always be by the owner's side. But plastic weathers, porcelain breaks, metal rusts, and people grow up... Turns out "change" is the only constant."
Evelyn Poppet is an Other with the ability to turn people into toys.
== Appearance ==
She has prosthetic legs due to losing her legs in a car accident. However, despite the vitality of Others like her being more than capable of bonding to prosthetics, she can't stand up due to her lack of determination to live, having faced the world's lies and darkness.
== Personality ==
Evelyn is soft-spoken and gentle in the way she presents herself. She's incredibly depressed and sad most of the time, rarely smiling. It's revealed she had already gone outside the factory to see the people her family talked so much about, only to find out that they never cared in return at all and her family had been telling lies. This was enough to make her walk into the flames of the burning factory in despair, but she survives thanks to her family shielding her.
She is reclusive and introverted, seldom communicating with others. She is also pessimistic, often making depressing and pessimistic comments, has insomnia, and sleep-talks.
== Background ==
Evelyn is the child of the Buonanotte Toy Factory's owners. She lost her legs in a childhood accident and has been living in a wheelchair ever since. The same year, the factory's business suffered a blow and Evelyn’s medical expenses became a burden as the factory kept losing money. Busy saving their business, the factory owners gradually lost touch with their daughter.
She voluntarily recruited many people in difficult circumstances as factory workers. Even at the factory's rock bottom, these workers held on to their duties. According to Evelyn, she spent most of her time with her employees and a mysterious person called “Eve” who told her that, one day, she could be “Eve” too.
Pressured by deficits and violent debt collectors, the factory eventually became a testing field for anti-other weapons where an explosion of contamination occurred. As the sole survivor, Evelyn couldn't let go of the memories. She was talked into staying in the factory and constructed a toy ward with her special power.
== Powers and Abilities ==
* Clockwork Manipulation: She can extract mental energy from herself or others and transform it into clockwork, which she uses to drive the toys and grant them partial consciousness and mobility, making the toys seem alive.
== Relationships ==
=== Family: ===
==== Eve Poppet ("Twin Brother") ====
"Instead of helping, I... I ran away. She was laying there, bleeding, and I just... ran away. I came back and she didn't remember me. So... I decided, I should play along. She shouldn't have to know what a horrible brother I'd been."According to Eve, him and Evelyn would spend all their time together, growing up closer than anything. They were practically inseparable, and would do everything together, from eating to dressing up, and would also share things (their bed, clothes, toys, etc). They spoke about everything, from what they were gonna do that day, to childish dreams of the future. They were each other's only solace as their parents would often neglect them in care for the toy factory. They could play hide and seek, and only the toys would participate. Even on their birthday, they would share it together, but their parents wouldn't spend any time with them, causing them to feel sad and cry. They, allegedly, had a big fight before the incident that cost Evelyn her legs.
After that incident, Evelyn seemed to forget about Eve and "met" him again in the factory as she played with the employees, regarding him as a mysterious person that would come and go. He told her that one day, she could be "Eve" too.
Eve said that he yelled at Evelyn to leave him alone, and that when she did, knowing she would never recover her lost memories, let alone her legs, he was heartbroken, blaming himself for Evelyn losing her legs in the first place. But Evelyn said that it was no one's fault but her own, and previously stated that her legs were the least important thing she's lost, implying that Eve is at least above her legs, coupled with her "family". While Evelyn doesn't remember Eve, she does remark on feeling "empty" and like she has lost something, but has no idea what.

== Quotes ==
* "If such contact can satisfy your curiosity, do as you please. Don't pity me, of all the things I've lost, my legs are the least important."
* "Do you like the chimes of the clock after midnight? I love them. Once it rings, one can pretend dream and reality are the same thing."
* "My wheelchair always makes me "set foot" in faraway places when I'm unaware... It's probably searching for a place called "home"."
* "If even a broken body can push beyond its limits, what about a shredded photo? Why can't it be mended then..."
