That one character I have that I used to use quite a bit... ANYWAYS. Halflife is no longer her real name! It's a nickname. Her real name is going to be either Claire or Carmen(leaning towards Claire).

She got the nickname before she changed schools. She was bullied for years in her old school due to her inability to show emotions. She was called multiple names, but someone came up with "Halflife" since they made the connection that she was alive, but emotionally dead, therefore half alive. It was used so often that it was strange for her to hear someone call her by her real name so she's always gone by Halflife since that's what pretty much everyone called her at that point.
