Lucille

Personality

Lucille is an interesting case. If one would look at her, one would have to question how she possibly survived the Gateway ritual of Ginen, but her personality instead is a result of having been born with a natural affinity for it, even when compared to other Delacroix. To her, even in complete silence to the average person the world is constantly filled with noise, and thus subconsciously when she can she stays away from others when it isn't absolutely necessary so as to not add to it's perceived  "volume".

As a result, when allowed to be her natural self, Lucille's demeanour is a complete contradiction of her reputation, as she quite appears meek and reserved. Having always been a mellow, if not slightly naive child, even in her adulthood it would not be incorrect to say that Lucille has hardly changed whatsoever. Typically whenever a celebration is ongoing, one can typically find Lucille in the furthest areas of the venue from others, probably drawing in a corner what she can "hear."

Having always possessed an exceptionally vibrant imagination which would come to serve her well in her later years as an immensely talented illusionist, Lucille would and still does prefer to draw alone as opposed to socializing heavily with others. This, when combined with a tendency she eventually grew out of to get irrationally aggressive when others would attempt to determine what she was doing only served to alienate most that would try to communicate with her. The only exception to this rule was her mother, who Lucille felt comfortable enough drawing next to.

*However*, when assigned an objective, it is almost as if a switch is flipped inside Lucille and she becomes an entirely different person, becoming exceptionally determined and cunning in her execution of a specific task. The last person one would expect to have the traits of a natural born leader, when on an expedition there are very few that can claim to be more goal-oriented and focused on the bigger picture than Lucille, capable of giving out precise commands to her colleagues and fellow Legionnaires as well as tirelessly working to determine a new plan of attack should the current one be compromised. This ability to flip a switch on a hair trigger when duty called made her an incredibly valuable asset for Sentry in the past, and the competence she demonstrates when she does so is a primary reason for her recruitment into Aegis after Sierra witnessed this firsthand.

With Aegis, Lucille has become a bit more open than before. While typically still sitting in mostly silence usually eating, Lucille enjoys herself both in and outside of missions while in the company of her teammates; finding them anywhere from amusing to intriguing.

As an agent of Sentry, while Lucille's sense of morality never quite faded, Lucille would appear to act in ways that she would naturally never turn to. Something entirely distinct from mental programming, Lucille as a result of the various traumatic incidents she experienced within her life developed a purely rational side to her personality as a coping mechanism, allowing her to act temporarily as if detached from her emotions in their entirety. Utilizing this aspect of her personality to the ends of molding her into the ideal killing machine, this side of Lucille was honed and trained in Sentry to the point to the point that she could switch in and out of this particular persona at will.

The only weakness that Sentry was unable to remove from this part of Lucille was her tendency for sentimentality that could at times muddle or override her prerogative to be entirely unfeeling. By manipulating the conditions under which she remained employed in Sentry, her superiors were capable of manipulating scenarios and feeding her the information she desired in such a manner that she would logically comply with her orders, since as far as she could see, it was the most logical path to achieving her goals. As opposed to the woman who would normally appear timid and introverted, when in this persona Lucille could wine and dine with the best, appearing as extroverted as anyone else. Naturally outgoing, Lucille's more rational side was akin to a high-functioning psychopath well-versed in weaving a web of lies, identities and lives.

After leaving Sentry, this side of her personality was mostly dismantled and fragmented, leaving her with a lack of the classified information and an inability to recite this information from her time as an agent. However, almost as if an offshoot, Lucille has demonstrated the ability to access the remnants of this side of her, being responsible for the switch that appears to be flipped inside her. She maintains her training, her knowledge of how to systematically destroy a given target, advanced stealth, but the details of her Sentry career themselves are extremely hazy, even to herself and telepaths. This is perhaps because this aspect of her is distinct, being considered to be dramatically more akin to being a vessel of Kalfou rather than an agent of Sentry.
