I swear, Alva is so much fun to watch. She's like a stream of consciousness given life. Unfortunately, I don't have much for her bio at the moment. As I replay the game, I'll see about updating this and fleshing it out.
(Sorry for the format; this site doesn't like me doing this like a bullet list.)
I own nothing except my AU. The characters of Horizon Zero Dawn and the sequel game Horizon Forbidden West belong to Guerilla Games, Sony Interactive Entertainment, and Mathijs de Jonge.
~Alison "Alva" Silva~
Foreign exchange student; Archaeology/Linguistics major
Came to the country for better learning opportunities
She hopes to land a good position to be able to better support her family, who are poor.
-She has a girlfriend back home, but hasn't seen her in a while.
-She's been a big help for Aloy in learning to be a big sister to Beta. Both of them are the elder sibling, and while Zo and Varl help with patience, they don't have that certain experience as being a big sister to a little sister. Alva does, and has helped Aloy understand the "I want to love you but I also want to strangle the words out of you so much" feeling and how she should act when it happens.
Enjoys deciphering ancient texts and learning about their societies, complex puzzles with Aloy (she likes picture puzzles too, but doesn't find them challenging enough), "big brain talk" (as Erend calls it) with Beta, and vlogging.
She's had problems in the past with paying attention and getting distracted, so she asked Kotallo, who is always so focused and serious, to help teach her to pay better attention and space out less. She regrets this when he started popping up in the most random places and tapping her forehead. She's mildly convinced he does it this way to annoy her, but she can't deny she's become more alert and aware since she asked.
