1. Roxie had a boy she liked just a little, just before she was empowered. They talked sometimes. He liked her a little, too. She sacrificed that relationship in an oneiromantic dealing for power. She doesn't know anything about it now, of course: all she remembers is that she gave up something important, but not what it is.

2. A hidden little track of her mind speculates, in off times, about her parents, who she doesn't remember and has never known anything convincing about. It would be an easy thing to trick her with.

3. Her relationship with Shyama is weird, weird, weird, seeing as he is both a father figure, and the only being she's ever been entirely sure unconditionally loves her.

4. In the time before she kills them, Roxie treats sacrificial animals with the utmost kindness and gentleness.

5. Roxie doesn't like people, per se; she likes the presence of certain people. This disconnect is part of the strangeness of her behavior.

6. Though she stays outwardly cool, internally Roxie gets easily frustrated, annoyed, or angered. This dichotomy is part of the reason for her being chosen by Shyama.

7. She's (mostly) good at seeming otherwise, but Roxie bullshits a lot of what she does, and makes answers up to support her own position when she's not sure of something. Eventually, this will backfire.

8. Roxie finds cephalopods and crustaceans the cutest animals of all, directly after snakes.

9. If she hadn't been chosen, Roxie would have started to kill people anyway. Just less discriminately.

10. If she ever survives long enough, Roxie may start to turn into something of a god. Ironically enough, she'd become more human emotionally at the same time she starts to become less human (meta)physically.
