Taryn Payne

[stayonscript]

PLAYER: JJ
PRONOUNS: She/Her

CHARACTER: Taryn Payne
CELL & ROLE: Espionage & Head of Area Prep
TIME IN DISLINKED: 18 years
MINI BIO: A former television producer turned espionage jack-of-all-trades. Taryn was the Head of Recruitment up until about 3 years ago, when she formed the Area Prep division. An exacting and difficult person to work for, but she undisputedly gets results. Her adoptive daughter is Eleanor Whitmore, and she used to work on Niko Novak’s soap opera before the Fall.

IDEAS/LINES:
- Area prep people! I like to imagine she got to tap people for this personally since it was a new division formed under her supervision, so she automatically has very high opinions of all of you.
- Anyone with Dislinked 15+ years, I’m sure she knows you very well. I’d love to work out individual histories for everyone who’s been with the organization for a long time.
- Also anyone who was recruited more than 3 years ago probably met her during that process. Kind of just the opposite situation of Apollo lol I think she’ll know basically everyone and have her opinions on them.
- Also if anyone would’ve been in Espionage 15ish years ago, maybe her former partner? But this is very specific I know lol

HI MOM

wrong journal but evan is scared to know her opinion of him

Re: Taryn Payne

[stayonscript]

hello child

she has a baseline level of respect for anyone who is good at their job but might be a little like 🤨 if he's ever being too much of a class clown for her tastes

[highvolt]

okay well mav is heart eyes and i'm sorry for this, because taryn is gillian anderson and because she is like YES powerful women behind the scenes in showbiz!!! that's it, that's the plot.

she's known jax the longest, of course, and he's known eleanor for the last 10 years as well so he is fond of both :> he's like "difficult? points at adri"

irina has a bit less overlap i think, but she is friendly with eleanor!!

[stayonscript]

i think taryn can clock this and she is quietly amused by it. sorry mav

she'll get along with jax too. i'm sure they've worked together in the past and i think their current jobs have a sort of synergy too

Re: Taryn Payne

[arasch]

rooooooooooooomie

Re: Taryn Payne

[stayonscript]

i'm so hype for these two to be roomies lmaoo

Re: Taryn Payne

[jetting]

Oh gosh, okay.

Eli is one of Doss’ rescues after her wing perished in the fall, and he was placed in their dislinked South African city when he was 11 until he was old enough to come on board. So he’s been around for 20ish? On the ship for 5.5. We can work something out if you’d like. 💖

Re: Taryn Payne

[stayonscript]

yes!! i would love to figure something out for them. taryn's been around strongholds and on mnemosyne for a long time, so i think they definitely would've had a chance to meet before he came on board, and i think she'd take a special interest in him once he started his career as a pilot too.

my brain's a leeetle mushy right now but i will send you a more detailed timeline of her history whenever i work it out and we can figure out where they overlap?

Re: Taryn Payne

[jetting]

Works for me and take your time! I’m still burnt out from 2025 🫡

Re: Taryn Payne

[humanityresource]

Yes ma'am, what do you need today?

Re: Taryn Payne

[stayonscript]

god what do you even make your underlings do for you in a world with no iced coffees

Re: Taryn Payne

[humanityresource]

Shitty break room coffee and steaming her blouses since there's no dry cleaning, I guess

Re: Taryn Payne

[fiia]

Lia is also Espio, but she's in Info, but she'd definitely know who the people are in charge! Also, Taryn is hot, and Lia has self-destructive tendencies, so possible flirting will ensue.

Adri's been here since the beginning. Be an old curmudgeon with him.

Griff has been here for 15 years, too! He's very content with being low dog on the totem pole, though. He'd be nice and Respectful :D

Re: Taryn Payne

[agyieus]

LOL i'm trying to decide how taryn would react to a 27 year old flirting with her so i guess we'll just have to see how that goes ic

i'm sure she knows and likes adri. i think she has a particular respect for the work he does too since it's important and like very outside her own wheelhouse

to her griff is a Very Nice Boy

Re: Taryn Payne

[clandestinity]

both of my characters think she is perfect. niko adores her and dotes on her and has probably proposed marriage at least once. i'm sorry

Re: Taryn Payne

[chesa]

we love women in STEM

not an area prep person but in espionage! i'm assuming she can clock chesa and her puppyish ways that beg for validation even if she won't say so out loud p much immediately
