I saw her character portrayal in a completely different light.Oh, I understand the intentions and I undertand the motivations they're trying to portray, I just believe that, as someone experiencing the story from the players perspective, it hasn't been communicated as well as it could be. Obviously the creator has a different opinion on the character they created, because they put care and effort into forming them, are attached to them and can essentially see the full planned scope of that character as well as their future. I can only judge as an observer based on what little I've been shown of the character so far, and quite frankly to this point I find their current portrayal to be aggravating. If the entire intended turnaround from her incredibly unpleasant first appearance is just a quick "she doesn't hate you now because you aren't an almost cartoonishly evil villain like the rest of the antagonists." Then I'm sorry, but I remain pretty disappointed in her current inclusion. I'm not going to pretend a character is perfect just because the person I'm talking to is the one that made them.
Podcast people are basically reporters, so it is common for them to get into other peoples business, and that can lead people to dislike them at first.
They can also lack in trust, because the way that they see the world, everyone has a dark side that has not yet been exposed. Truly good people really are rare, so it is common for such people to not trust others.
Basically, she was well portrayed as a journalist. (My brother works for the AP News)
Her later turn around, when she found out MC's secret is perfect. Because not only did she find that rare good person, she found one who shares a cause that she strongly believes in, and who is actively trying to do something about it..
Just because she is enthusiastic about helping them does not mean that she is a complete idiot who will cause problems. She might be just the thing they need in order for their plans to secede. In WWII they used public radio to pass messages to the underground, but instead of using strange messages like, John has a long mustache (The longest day movie) it could be human interest stories, with each part of the message imbedded in each of those stories.
Similar to how the riddles were done. When you combine each part from the different stories you get the secret message.
