Jentha Briati, also known by her Skorpe handle furbishFacilitated, is one of the main characters in Vast Error. Her associated alchemic sigil is Tin, and she is a deconstruction of the "useless" fantroll archetype.[1]
Jentha was born without any survival abilities typical to goldbloods, a fact that has contributed to her general feelings of helplessness and vulnerability.
She was the twelfth troll introduced and the ninth troll to enter the game.
Biography
Early life
When Jentha was younger, she met Murrit Turkin and Dismas Mersiv through unknown circumstances. Dismas refused to end her life, and eventually the two found solace in each other, entering a moirallegiance.
Act 1
During the events of [S] Arcjec: Enter. , Jentha is shown looking at her laptop in distress as the Game installs itself on her machine. She does not feature in any of the Act's pesterlogs.
Act 2
Jentha's first spoken line happens during one of Ellsee's memos, Rinkadink Thinking TimΣ, where Jentha accidentally sends the letter "h". The two have a humorous exchange in which Jentha silences and unsilences herself multiple times, before she finally bans herself from the memo altogether.
Later, she is brought into a Skorpe call with Dismas and Murrit, the latter having sent her into a panic by claiming that Dismas was dead. Dismas calms Jentha down and explains his condition, downplaying his injuries, and the pair have an exchange where he tries to reassure Jentha about her Game related worries. Murrit then states that he's ready for Dismas to act as his server player, which Dismas and Jentha are outraged by, both due to Dismas' condition and Murrit being entirely at fault for it. The seadweller manages to talk Dismas into listening to him, despite Jentha's protests: he tells them that he's hatched a plan to get Dismas back to his hive using an ore-powered minecart by the nearby rails.
Jentha and Dismas are skeptical, but Dismas concedes, due to both a lack of options and Murrit's reassurances that things are >([under control]. Dismas is then deposited into the cart and proceeds to MELT TRACK, boobdrone in tow.
During [S] Engage. , Jentha yells at Murrit for throwing Dismas down a ladder and putting her moirail in danger with their plan, but she is smugly ignored.
After her introduction, Jentha receives a message from Occeus, seeking advice about his personal problems. Jentha bluntly tells him to jump off a cliff and leave her alone after being interrupted from watching a stream from a internet celebrity. The two have a quick back and forth conversation where Jentha continues to deflect what he says. Occeus convinces himself that he needs to stop being selfish, thanking Jentha for helping him to come to this conclusion. Occeus receives a transmission from Hamifi, telling him to pull himself together or leave the Corporate payroll. Occeus goes back to Jentha and vents that he may have finally hit rock bottom. Jentha replies that she doesn't know what he means, but Occeus is pulled away before he can respond.
She's then seen trying to help Sova with her entry by whacking the inky creatures harassing Sova with pillars. Jentha frantically messages Occeus and begs for help, but her attention is drawn away by a glowing light in the shape of the Light aspect shining behind her. Af, the Denizen of Light, appears to help a starstruck Jentha, to the annoyance of White Noise.
During the events of [S] Ellsee: Enter. , Jentha is shown being led through an abandoned town. Af sets up Jentha's portal and activates it, prompting Jentha to follow. She is then taken to her fully formed land, a planet comprised of grassy fields with yellow flowers and bright blue skies. Her platform and talk with her denizen are not shown.
Act 3 Act 1
Jentha responds to Arcjec's memo, complaining about the Game's meteor mechanism that pushes the players into the game. She grumbles about her planet looking like a playground for grubs and her denizen looking like a traffic cone. Jentha then accusingly asks Arcjec where the Funko he promised to trade her was, but he brushes it off.
Personality and Traits
Jentha is an extremely shy and anxious troll who lives closed off to most of the outside world due to her anxiety and lack of survival ability to protect herself against the dangers on Repiton. She is described by White Noise as "Incredibly hard to find on many occasions." Contrary to her usually distressed her behavior, she tends to be extremely rude and insulting to people, possibly as a way to overcompensate for her anxiety. Jentha often tries to be as unpleasant to talk to as possible when wanting to be left alone, to the point of telling Occeus to jump off a cliff after he interrupted her free time . She is notably only outwardly concerned about her moirail, though this lapse in hostility doesn't apply to his pitch partner.
Jentha collects and cares for "outcast" toys, notably a collection of furbies. Due to having a lot of time to herself, she also has great skill in board games, along with a selection of the best movies made . She seems to have "nursery" of toys for kids and nostalgic interests .
Relationships
Dismas Mersiv
Dismas and Jentha are in a moirallegiance, and their relationship is notably Jentha's only known committed relationship. The two are very close to one another, and openly worry for the other's well being. Despite being anxiety-ridden and constantly struggling to get her thoughts into words, she much calmer when in Dismas' presence, and he's very good at intuitively understanding her feelings. The two are especially of the same mind when it comes to dealing with Murrit, completely fed up and frustrated, but will nonetheless go along with his harebrained ideas.
Dismas appears to provide nearly everything Jentha needs, both in terms of financial support and emotional comfort as his role as her moirail would dictate. While Dismas is typically aggressive towards most trolls, he's calm and nurturing when speaking to Jentha.
Murrit Turkin
Jentha has a great dislike for and distrust in Murrit due to his frequent antagonization of Dismas and tendency to cause him pain. Like most people, Jentha finds Murrit to be obnoxious and annoying, but is further made more uncomfortable by their demeanor due to her anxiety issues and panic attacks. Jentha seems to be forceful and willing to put her foot down when interacting with Murrit on the behalf of her moirail, and outright insults and calls out the seadweller when he's acting especially terrible, a possible result of Dismas' influence. Despite this, she doesn't seem to hate Murrit by any means and just seems to think of her as a 'stupidhead'.
Occeus Coliad
Jentha doesn't seem to care much about Occeus, telling him to jump off a cliff and that she doesn't care he needs her aid after he accidentally interrupted her. However, Occeus doesn't seem to pick up on the fact she's intentionally being rude, as he ends up believing she had helped him out when in reality he helped himself. He seems to put trust into Jentha while she does not seem to trust him. Under stress however, Jentha admits that she needs his help and felt guilty about being rude looking back.
Sova Amalie
There is not much known about Sova and Jentha's relationship. Sova shows concern for a stressed Jentha even when brushed off, and Jentha calls Sova "the one who c cares so much about e everyone" .
