Summary
Georgie is the delightfully feral no thoughts, head empty girl.
Sometimes she's literally a raccoon, but most of the time she's a
human surrounded by creatures. Magic did not come naturally to
her, and most of her talents are in home economics: sewing is her
favorite hobby, but she's also a good cook and baker.
Astral, as her cult
leader, runs her life according to his whims. When she's not
demonstrating her loyalty to him, she loves poetry and loves being
read to (especially by
Teresa) because she
can't read herself.
Mac is her darling who
she introduces into this wacky world, for better or worse. She'll
make him new clothes and make him food and love on him as best as
she can.
Personality
Play-doh-brained Georgie is so silly and absorbs everything around
her and is often overwhelmed by it all. No matter what, she is
full of love and never quite knows what to do with it. Excitable
and impulsive, she's fond of eloping when it's inconvenient, but
will be there in someone's arms the second she realizes they could
use a hug.
Georgie is autistic and happily lives an interdependent life out
in the woods. She can't read, but she'll let others read to her
while she does other things, like cook, clean, or sew for her
polycule. As a result of the cult's brainwashing, she yields to
whatever commands are given to her, but they're always good
commands, so she's happy to do them and it's fine, of course.

Magic Powers
Everyone knows that Georgie can do terran magic. She's not the
best at it, but she can make things float or hypnotize people into
believing they're animals. Standard stuff for any member of the
Connection. More advanced terran magic is beyond her. However, it
takes an emergency for everyone to discover she is a powerful
necromancer capable of bringing the dead back to life. She
perceives the life magic found in living things as auras. Earth
life has a green aura, and alien life has a red aura.
Appearance
Body Features
Tall and lanky, she regularly has to look down at the people
around her. She has fairly broad shoulders that are very good for
resting heads on. With her food pickiness and activity tending to
the garden, she is strong but lean and fairly tan with freckles on
her shoulders.
If she doesn't have a vaguely heart-shaped birthmark or mole on
her cheek, she'll draw one on herself.
Physical quirks
Her favorite stims are making chewing/spitty sounds, chirping, and
flapping her wrists. The stims change in shape and form depending
on her mood, but at her happiest she's chirping and flapping and
at her worst she's chewing on her cheek so hard it bleeds.
Clothing and Dress
She wears absolutely whatever she wants. Overalls, dresses, suits,
jackets, pajamas, whatever she happens to make.
History
The current year is 1969.
Born on August 8th, 1948, Georgie Palmer was born without
intention to an overwhelmed mother and a cop father. They
struggled with their new screaming, crying, and wailing handful.
In her desperation for relief, Georgie's mother tried to kill
her. Several times, Georgie was placed at the top of the stairs
for her to roll off of it. After that trick was found out, her
dad stepped in. Georgie was kept at home and out of institutions
and out of school. She didn't talk until she was seven.
By the time she was fifteen, she could talk, but her dad didn't
like that she kept talking about being a woman and a man at the
same time. Her dad started to regularly lock her out of the
house. Well, fine. Georgie ran away and got picked up by Astral
instead.
Embraced by the loving connection, she grows up extremely
self-confident, happy, and a part of something wonderful. She
loves her queen and king and will do everything she can for
them. Especially her queen.
Through a haze of drug and meditation, they all discover her
life's purpose: to play the role of midwife when Teresa succeeds
in birthing the alien-human hybrid child who will bring the dawn
of the new age.
Georgie interrupts fate and accidentally cuckolds Astral
instead, impregnating Teresa with their own child. It does not
go over well. Astral tries to imprison her in the stable as
punishment, but she escapes after exploding a horse.
Raccoon timeline
Sometimes she's just a raccoon shapeshifting girl, and her
timeline is that she's cute and good.
Relationships
Astral: god king
Georgie respects and fears him as a divine/magical authority.
When he tests her, she tries her hardest to succeed. While she
considers him her alien god, and despite his slobbering
attentions, she does not consider him a true romantic
interest. She loves him and worships him with sex magic, but
he is not her lover.
Teresa: goddess queen
Georgie fell in love with Teresa at first sight. Teresa's
beauty and self-assurance captivate her, and she loves to
demonstrate her affection in as many ways as possible,
especially making her pretty clothes. She thinks Teresa is the
smartest and coolest person she's ever met.
Mac: meatball
Georgie loves Mac with her whole heart. In the original story,
she meets him when he's at his lowest, and she uses her
confidence and unabashed queerness to get him out of his
shell. She jumps at the opportunity to bring Mac to the
Connection when his landlord kicks him out. Among other
things, Georgie loves Mac's loyalty and other dog-like
qualities, and she wants to help him succeed as a fellow
acolyte to Astral's alien genius. He's her meatball.

Origin of Name
She's had multiple name shifts. Because of real life stuff, she
couldn't have her first name anymore, then her second name was off
the table. Had to go back to the drawing board for a cute unisex
masculine-leaning name. Georgie means "earth worker" and
considering she's a necromancer farmer, that sounds right.
"Rose" is a pretty name. She was going to be "Georgia Peach" but
that is a little too cloying for it to be her fully name.
