In the world of wilderness scouts, those who brave the wilds, watching for changes in weather forecast the approach of a Catastrophe, those who record previous Catastrophes and provide advance warnings for those that have yet to hit are called 'Catastrophe Messenger.' Working do close to the devastating power of Catastrophes has a tendency to weigh on the Messengers, either jading them or traumatizing them. Many give up the work due to the heavy psychological toll. But Provence continues to shoulder these burdens. She has seen the destruction of life and limb wrought by the Catastrophes, and her love of that life serves as a powerful motivation for her to keep going back to work. When it comes to the Catastrophes themselves, Provence's thoughts are complicated. She has borne witness to the havoc they wreak on the lives of the common people, but she does not let herself be overcome by negativity. She controls her emotions, remains optimistic, and keeps calm. These characteristics make her an excellent Catastrophe Messenger, as she brings not despair with her messages, but hope. These are the ideas that keep her charging into the wilderness under the shroud of pitch-black clouds. As important as her resilience is to her work, Provence's wealth of experience and adaptability are equally powerful tools in her arsenal. She can hold out in the wilderness even with limited supplies, relying on well-trained survival instincts to see her and her companions through their challenges. Her intuition allows her to effectively assess threats, and her commitment to teamwork has made her one of our most reliable Operators.

Provence's greatest hope is to improve how people face the challenges posed by Catastrophes. A staunch environmentalist, she fights against waste and littering, while advocating for the conservation of resources, and directly improves the environment through her own actions. Provence is often seen busily hurrying between different uninhabited biomes and Rhodes Island, where she personally volunteers to clean and recycle waste in her spare time. She has also been known to take the time to politely and thoroughly lecture the less environmentally conscious of her fellow operators. Very few have been unmoved by her sincerity.

It is an uncommon occurance, but when all her work is done, including the volunteer cleanup she does, Provence enjoys her time off by carefully grooming her tail. If her tail is adequately fluffed, she has been known to drop into the store to shop for some fashionable gifts for herself and her friends (including some outfits to add to her wardrobe), play with the children of Rhodes Island, try out new cooking recipes (with ingredients foraged in the wild, of course), organize the occasional shindig with her chums, and other such things that strike her fancy. Such is Provence's ideal lifestyle.

'We got a storm brewing near the island. Don't worry, I'll handle the evacuation. I've been in this restaurant before!' Before Provence finished speaking, she was already diving headfirst into another operation deep in the wilds. In fact, she is always in danger. Because in fact, she suffers from Oripathy. The work she so deeply values lets her infection slip her mind, but she is well aware of her condition. Still, she takes an optimistic outlook on life. Provence's visit with the Doctor, however, has made her more aware of the seriousness of the overall situation. To ease the Doctor's concerns and make the island safer, Provence continues to make regular trips into the wild.

Provence is well-versed in most wilderness environments and survival techniques. This simulation has a rugged environment as its base, and has set up new challenges for her. Watch for the enemies before you. Judge the timing and positioning of your actions, prioritize taking out principal threats, and leave enemies who'll further affect your movements to your trustworthy teammates. Provence knows well, no matter what kind of environment the bleak battlefield is, only sufficient agility can guarantee survival.
