Mister Aladdin, sir what will your pleasure be?
VIRGINIA "PEPPER" POTTS
- Name: VIRGINIA POTTS
- Alias: Pepper
- Age: Thirty-five
- Gender: female
- Species: What kind of species do they belong to? human
- Codename:n/a
- Faction: Avengers
- Play by (optional): Gwyneth Paltrow
Let me take your order jot it down
- Personality:
Pepper is a very alert person. Always conscious of work ethics, and the idea of a time and place for everything, she's the least likely person you'd ever see goofing off at work, or allowing anyone else to do so. Very serious minded and focused, she is often seen as a workaholic (slightly true) and has been accused of being a boring bitter old hag (not nearly so true). She likes the social scene as much as anyone else, she just has her priorities aligned and won't shift things around just to gain coworkers approval. A very boring work wardrobe backs up the misconception, and it's usually a great shock to anyone who sees her out at night for the first time.
Aside from her work persona, Pepper is a normal thirty something red blooded woman. She has her flirtations and her friendships, though these are kept out of the office. The ability to separate work and social life is one of her most important distinctions. The idea that she actually has a social life would probably never occur to anyone who makes a habit of dumping work on her. Aside from that, she has a wry sense of humor and ironic way of putting things that helps keep her detractors at arms length. - Likes: Promptness, white wine, flat shoes, french manicures, compact cars
- Dislikes: tardiness, irresponsibility, cheap beer, high heels, hummer suv's
- Appearance:
Pepper has shoulder length blond hair, stands at about five foot nine and one hundred twenty five pounds. She is very slender, almost skinny. She has extremely pale skin that freckles easily, and she takes care to slap on sunscreen to prevent that, each time she steps out. Weekends or the rare times he has a free moment might find her in a tanning booth to help her appear less fishbelly white. Cosmetics help a lot with that also, and spray tanners are becoming more natural and advanced the last few years. She dresses in standard if blase office attire at work, nothing that stands out. For social and after hours work/social functions her attire is more risque, and much brighter. - Distinguishing Features:Anything unusual about the
character, or something that makes them stand out? She has no scars or identifying tattoos, her only concession is pierced ears. - Equipiment: Anything they hold like weapons or items they
must have at all times? No weapons, she does carry mace in her purse, and her keys are rather sharp, but that's about it.

You're the boss the king, the shah
- Powers: human, n/a
- Weaknesses: n/a
- Skills: Pepper is extremely organized, and self-sufficient. She knows the ins and outs of the company, perhaps better than Stark himself, who works more on the creative side of things. She's no slouch when it comes to technical things either. While she's not on the level her boss is, she can mostly keep up in the conversations with him when he brings up new plans and the science side of projects.
- History:
Pepper was raised in Connecticut, an only child of middle class parents. She was a well loved child, received a good education, and had a brief stint in college, majoring in English literature and the liberal arts. Her parents supported her, though they had their misgivings about her subject choices. They were proven right when she graduated and did not have companies flocking to her with open arms with job offers. She resorted to living with her parents until she found work that allowed her to move out and be more independent.
She began at a level entry job at Stark, working at first for Howard, starting out as a secretary. Catching a mistake brought her to the attention of management and she was elevated to a higher position. She studied hard to meet the requirements of her new position and her loyalty to her boss is beyond question. While there are drawbacks, to her at least, the pros far outweigh the cons and she'd never trade where she is for anywhere or anything else. Her tendency to love taking her boss down a peg or two, usually with a reference to how swamped she is and how much the need to cover and a tiny wicked grin, is her one concession to formality so far.

Abby looked at the pile of papers in dismay. It was past five o'clock, most of her department had gone home, yet someone had hit her desk with a stack higher than her shoulders while she was getting signatures from the Aurors down the hall. She poked the pile resentfully, wondering if it was some kind of prank that would dissolve on contact, but no luck. She sighed and began with the top, wondering how long it would take.
Fifteen minutes later, and she had somehow still found herself on the same file as when she started, and she began to get restless. She looked over at some of the other desks and did some math, not her strongest subject...
Five minutes later, her desk was cleared and she was on her way out. The top third of the pile was stacked on another interns desk, who had been out sick that day. Other portions were divided equally between other departments based on where the information was being requested from, and who was least likely to notice it being slipped into their workload. Smiling, she stepped off the sidewalk and hailed a ride from another coworker who had stayed late, and decided to take her up on her earlier invitation to hit the pub.
