When did you come up with Camila, and what are some of your favorite things about her (Personality, Design-wise, lore-wise, etc)!

I came up with Camila about a year ago! My partner and I wanted to do a 1on1 city of mist game, and I had recently rewatched the Giselle and I the idea for her hit me like a truck. I wanted to deconstruct the classic noir "femme fatale" trope by forcing a promiscuous, paranoid, and self hating woman to essentially share a body with the sweet, virginal, loving Giselle. I also recently underwent a disabling incident and I needed to inflict that on a fake lady LOL.

My favorite thing about her is I think the contrast between her inner her and the tropes she embodies. Of course, there's the obvious giselle is sweet and loving and Camila is...uh Not at all. But also, I like how she departs from the idea of the femme fatale. Yes, shes manipulative, but it's a defense mechanism. Yes she dates men for their money, but that's because she knows they date her for her body (and she's SICK of it). Femme fatales also generally don't solve their own mysteries.

Also she's a conspiracy theorist and I think that's hilarious.
