Name: Irene Adler.
Age: 31.
Series: Sherlock (2010).
Job: Camp Gamekeeper
Canon: Sherlock is a modern-day reboot of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic Sherlock Holmes series, in which the titular character is a sociopathic consulting detective who solves mysteries with the aid of his partner John Watson, a recently-returned veteran of the Afghanistan war. Together, they travel all across London following case after case, each one more perplexing and intricate than the last. With the success of their endeavors garnering considerable media attention, Sherlock is drawn into a hidden web of seriously dangerous criminal activity. It soon becomes clear that there are rather dangerous individuals watching him, and they enjoy playing high-stakes games--most of which involve human lives.
Irene Adler's had her eye on Sherlock and his antics for a while, but only recently did he notice her when she emerged at the center of a burgeoning scandal. It seemed Miss Adler held all the cards (or in this case, compromising photos on her BlackBerry), and despite Sherlock's best attempts, she outwitted him and got away. Clever, quick-witted, and deviously manipulative, Irene is a mischievously coy schemer in her own right--one who's not above playing dirty to get what she wants. Coming out on top is what matters to Irene, and it motivates her to dominate in both her professional occupation as a dominatrix and in her criminal hobbies. While she gives the impression of being fairly open--something she uses to her advantage--in truth, she's very subtle when she wants to be. She can be a genial person, but has few qualms about using others, even at the cost of their lives--and even less qualms when it comes to playing games.
Sample Post:
Miss Sayre, I have to say I had more faith in your taste than this silly attempt at tyranny. You can do so much better than these slow primates bumbling about the place--and I'm not just talking about the gorillas. Everything's so dull once the spark of creation's worn off, I suppose. You were so much brighter at the beginning of this project, weren't you? At least, that's the impression I was given. After all, the start of a relationship is always the most exciting, the most passionate, and the most deadly. But I know spending too much time alone with men, especially "clever" men, can dull your senses. Is that why you've not seen fit to show your pretty little face for so long, Elizabeth? Too preoccupied with... work? Mm, that is disappointing. You'll have to catch me up over dinner--if you like, I can even call you "queen". You do seem to be the type to prefer the royal treatment.
Until then, I've some ideas for improving the environment of your little playground. Hmm, I think what your lab rats are really lacking is discipline. I suppose I could provide some, being your new "Gamekeeper"--after all, it is my area of expertise. I take it there are no objections? Seeing as you're already engaged, in a manner of speaking. And it does look like you could use an extra hand.
Now, I've known some scientists--well, I've known what they like, and they always tell me the best way to deal with having a pet you experiment on is to train it first. Admittedly that advice always comes from behind a gag, so it can be hard to interpret... of course, training involves both discipline and reward, and if you're going to have a lot of pets at once you need a strict regimen in order to keep them all in line. That's what you're lacking right now, unfortunately, and if you want to keep them from acting out too much, you'll need to break them in. If you'd like, I can loan you one of my riding crops? It's an excellent tool to use if an unforgettable beating is what you're after.
What you'll need to be careful of is if your pets start to wise up to what you're doing to them. There's only so many times you can jab a needle in them while caressing their fur that they'll forgive you, and the smarter ones will bite back if you're not keeping them in line. It's always unpleasant when that happens, and they get so smug about it later... even more so when they're a bit dumb to begin with. You've got plenty of experience with that, don't you Elizabeth? I've seen your situation enough times before to know the tell-tale signs. Now, this is just a bit of advice, woman-to-woman: whatever you do, don't get soft. If you think of everything as a game, even a potential loss can be twisted to your benefit... but that's only if you play it right.
I could go on, but I think that'll do as a sneak preview of what's in store--both for you and your pets. It's only unfortunate that I can't take things a step further, but that's where I have to compliment your creativity; you've come up with an excellent way to keep them begging for more.
