History Characters / Diminish

[[folder:Will's Sister [[spoiler: Teddy/Theodora]]]]

Will's deceased [[spoiler: twin sister]]. She's the creator of ''Diminish'', a game tailor-made for her brother.

* AcademicAthlete: On top of making a functional, detailed game in the span of 4 months, she was [[spoiler: training to be an Olympic swimmer prior to her death]].

* CoolBigSis: While Teddy and Will are [[spoiler: twins (with Will being born first)]], Will still sees her as this.
* ExtremeDoormat: Downplayed. [[spoiler: Teddy sees herself as such, and worries that this will have major consequences after her death. It's unclear if she ''was'' a doormat, or this view was a product of her impending death]].

* ParentalFavoritism: On the receiving end of this. [[spoiler: An in-game text conversation in ''Act 1, Episode 16'' shows a conversation between Teddy and one of their parents about Will. The parent praises Teddy for all of her accomplishments while dismissing all of Will's hobbies as lesser. Teddy is clearly uncomfortable with this treatment]].

* SecretKeeper: Has a horrible secret that she has been keeping from Will. What it is [[spoiler: is implied to be rather gruesome, given the horrific imagery that usually accompanies any mention of it]].

* BadassDecay: Downplayed.[[spoiler: In their notes, Apollo writes that they feel weaker than usual, although they don't know why. This may explain why they have trouble holding onto ledges and have no fighting abilities at the start]].
* ConditionedToAcceptHorror: On the [[spoiler: first playthrough]], they constantly zigzag between this and despair. Played straight on the [[spoiler: second playthrough, where their "death" counter turns into a "tries" counter]].

* {{Determinator}}: Despite all the pain Apollo goes through, they never give up their mission to help other people. Exemplified in ''Act 1, Episode 9'' where, [[spoiler: after being stuck in a constant loop of dying due to never saving at a checkpoint, they force their way out of the loop by using pain as a source of power. In the process, this changes the "death" counter into a "tries" counter, showing their new-found strength]].
