Canonblind Character Guide

I create these guides to my characters for people who might want more information than the info booth might provide. Do keep in mind that the page will contain spoilers for Red vs. Blue.

Voice

Tex is found speaking to York in this introduction of his character. Tex's voice is warm, with good humor at points where it's called for, but she tends to never laugh. She has an Austin accent.

Attitude

Tex is protective of her friends, but tends not to show it to their faces. She presents herself as a cold bitch, and is often referred to as such in the show, but when speaking to her friends this doesn't ring true.

Dialogue

The following are some samples of dialogue that put Tex's attitude and general demeanor fully on display.

Tucker: So, I suppose if you're helping us, you're not as mean as I thought.

Tex: (stops to face Tucker) I wouldn't say I'm mean, I just get hired to do mean things.

Tucker: Yeah, but you like it.

Tex: Well, I think it's important to enjoy what you do.

Tucker: So let's say I paid you to kill Caboose. (looks at Caboose) You would still do it, right? Even though you're supposed to be helping us?

Tex: Is this a hypothetical discussion, or should we start talking numbers?

Tucker: Yeah, I don't wanna talk about this anymore.


Tucker: Just hire her.

Grif: What?

Tucker: Hire her to help you get Lopez back. She'll do anything for money.

Tex: That's not true.

Tucker: It's not? I'll give you ten bucks to tear off Grif's arm.

Tex: Which one's Grif?


Tex: Nice knowing you, O'Malley, but payback's a bitch, and so am I.


Church: Alright, O'Malley, this is it. From now on, if anyone makes my girlfriend cranky and psychotic, it's gonna be me.

Tex: Aww, that's sweet.

Church: Shut up, bitch.

Tex: Asshole.


Church: (whispering to Tex) Hey, you wanna die in an explosion? Play along. (To Andy) Yeah, um... I don't know if you've noticed but she's, uh... she's kind of a bitch. Isn't that right, Tex?

Tex: Church...

Andy: I don't know...

Tucker: Come on, Tex.

Tex: Yes. We're talking about me.

Andy: Sounds like you're patronizing me.

Tex: (grudgingly) No, really, it's me, I'm a bitch.

Church: Heh-heh, keep going.

Tex: And I need to be calmed down all the time.

Church: Or what happens?

Tex: Or, else I get so mad, I kill people on my own team.

Church: ...I see your point.


Tex: You know what? You don't have to tell me. All I have to do is pummel you senseless, rip off your helmet, and access your communication logs. I'll know exactly where he is.

Wyoming: Uh, hm. I see. Well in that case, perhaps I shall tell you.

Tex: Nah, I like my way better.


Things Other Characters Said

The following are things other characters said about North that show the way people see him.

Sister: Oh, she was just talking about everyone here. How you're all idiots and jerks, but you guys are her idiots and jerks, and if I try to become more popular than her, she would talk about me behind my back, and turn everyone against me, and then I would cry, and everyone would hate me... you know, girl stuff!

CHARACTER INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: Agent Texas
CANON: Red vs. Blue
TIMELINE: Season 6 episode 19: The point in time that Washington sets off the EMP.

AGE: Unknown; as a created AI, she's likely less than 5, but has the mentality of an adult

REFERENCE: https://rvb.fandom.com/wiki/Tex

PERSONALITY: Texas plays her cards close to the vest. She has her own reasons for doing things and she tends not to communicate those reasons to others, even when she decides to change her course of action. When circumstances mean she must communicate her thoughts in words or in deeds, the end result will tend to be subtle or understated. She's much more a person of action, and has a tendency make her mind up quickly when her knowledge of a situation changes, leaving those who had been carrying out plans with her in the dust. Especially early on in Project Freelancer, this tendency to carry out plans on her own ignited tensions with other agents, and this wasn't helped by the Director sending her into the field separately from the rest of the team. Texas isn't afraid to confront those tensions, though she also doesn't seem to realize the seriousness of the fracture it causes in her relationships with the other agents, especially Agent Carolina. Similarly, friendships are handled in a hands-off manner, and Tex isn't afraid to poke fun at those she considers worthy of her protection, or even insult them or be sarcastic toward them.

Texas is proud of her abilities and knows she's capable of being a much better fighter than those she feels affection toward. For this reason she goes to a lot of effort to keep tabs on the members of the Red and Blue squads in Blood Gulch. Even more, she knows her knowledge of the circumstances behind the way Church ended up becoming a member of his squad puts her in a unique position when it comes to protecting him. She needs to protect him not only from enemies, but from the truth of learning what had happened to him. She's not afraid to go with Church's interpretation of events in an effort from allowing the truth to hurt him. She can be a bit cocky, but she doesn't rub her accomplishments or skills in other people's faces—she might remark on her making a headshot or another agent's poor luck, but she'll leave it at that.

It's notable that Tex doesn't alter her behavior based on how others perceive her actions. She knows she's inscrutable to many of them, but she doesn't resort to explaining herself or changing her behavior. She is who she is, and she owns it. This includes her less savory qualities such as her monetary greed, and her willingness to switch loyalties when the evidence she's presented with shows a better course of action in working toward her goals. But Tex is protective toward those she sees as less able to handle things than she is—although she's generally known as a hardass, she has a lot of tenderness toward them that she keeps under wraps.

Her biggest turning points are her discovery of Agent Connecticut's evidence, and later on, the ejection of the Omega AI. Before seeing the evidence, she's willing to put up with the fact that she is kept separate from the other agents, but afterward she makes an effort to show interest in their difficulties caused by the Director's experimenting, and befriends Agents North and York, explaining the Project's sins to them so that they will help her overthrow the leadership. When Omega, an embodiment of Alpha's rage, leaves her, it again sharpens her willingness to protect and defend her new friends, the members of the Blood Gulch simulation squads. She goes to a lot of effort to try to kill Omega to protect those soldiers from needing to deal with his cruelty and his ability to take over their emotional states. She knows what hosting Omega is like, and she doesn't believe it's something any of them should be forced to go through.

This CRAU version of Tex has learned a bit more about being personable with people who would consider her a friend, and has experience dealing with children and others who she’d never had any chance to interact with as an AI who had been acting as a paramilitary agent. She also is in the process of falling for someone, a character who’s unlikely to show up in this game at any point. I chose her pull point because she’s not deeply attached to him as of yet, but has learned that she can be tender and loving with someone who isn’t Church. She’s also learned a lot about taking care of her human body properly, and is a lot less likely to push too hard as she had done in Thisavrou.

ABILITIES: As an AI, Tex has a near-perfect ability to predict and counter any fighting moves of her opponents. Not being in her robot body, however, she can’t fight back with the precision she would be used to before she found herself in Thisavrou.

For similar reasons, Tex is an excellent marksman. She's limited in this game by having typical human reflexes and vision, but she's able to precisely calculate where her shots would land.

Tex is also skilled at vehicle repair and equipment maintenance.

PERSONAL EFFECTS: Her armor, which resembles Spartan Mjolnir armor from the Halo universe.
PRIZED POSSESSION: Connie’s dogtags.

CRAU PREMISE: Up to this pull point, Tex had been in Thisavrou for 8 months (plus a lost year where the aliens on the planet where they had crash-landed on were mind-controlling them).
  • This version of Tex has learned a bit more about being personable with people who would consider her a friend, and has experience dealing with children and others who she’d never had any chance to interact with before. She had been assigned to be the ship's schoolteacher, and although she felt she was out of her depth there, she did the best she could with the assignment.

  • During Tex's time there, she struggled quite a bit with the realization that she would be required to be more moderate with her fighting and training activities because of the limitations of the human body she had been placed in when she arrived on the Moira (the spaceship that was the setting of Thisavrou at this point in the game). She trained to the point she injured herself more than once, but eventually had a conversation with another character, a doctor named Adrien Arbuckal, that convinced her to view training a different way.

  • Tex came out early on as an AI to the denizens of the ship, when Rinzler from Tron was put on trial for murder. His original programmer, Alan Bradley, as also on the ship, and he reprogrammed soeme of Rinzler's functions. This whole episode made Tex very angry and her CR with Alan was always contentious after this.

  • During the time that Agent Washington was on the ship, Tex took revenge on him for killing her, then learned that his actions had brought justice to Leonard Church, the Director. She also learned Washington himself served time in prison for his acts.

  • She eventually received a robot body in the mail, which was a function of the Ingress pulling items in from characters’ home worlds. She learned to jump from the human body to the robot, using each in turn when she felt like it. Eventually, the Moira entered a compromised position in orbit over a planet and began to crash. Tex, wanting to have access to both of her bodies, put the human body in an escape pod, planning to enter another pod in the robot body afterward. The mechanism that should have effortlessly launched it, however, failed, and Tex had to push the pod out of the tube. The pod fell to the ground, and her robot body also fell to the ground. Both of the bodies were damaged and she had to accept a body for temporary use from the aliens on the planet. Tex's bodies were rescued by Adrien, the doctor, and Tony Stark, from the MCU.

  • As it turns out, the aliens were mind-controlling the denizens of the ship, and Tex didn’t discover this until after her human body had been lingering in a coma for over a year. She was able to return to it, only to find it in a weakened state. This has made her suspicious and untrusting of aliens who seem to offer creature comforts in exchange for nothing.

  • At this time, she was also in the process of falling for someone—L from Death Note, a character who’s unlikely to show up in this game at any point. I chose her pull point because she’s not deeply attached to him as of yet, having been in a relationship with him for only 2 months, but has learned that she can be tender and loving with someone who isn’t Church. She’s also learned a lot about taking care of her human body properly, and is a lot less likely to push too hard as she had done in Thisavrou.

Kinks

Kinks
  • Tex is a CRAU from [community profile] thisavrou. In this game, before her pull point, Tex had recently made a connection with another character, known among the denizens of the ship as Ryuuzaki. They had an exclusive relationship but had not yet discussed things such as what to call it.
  • In [community profile] lifeaftr Tex will be open to shipping. She will miss what she had in [community profile] thisavrou and may suffer some kind of identity crisis about not having her robot body available to her. For this reason she may throw herself into something new if it comes up.
  • For memes and PSLs, I am wide open to shipping options for Tex, including male and female partners. I don't ship Tex/Carolina (yes, that ship is still out there) but many other ships are on the table.
  • Kinks listed as a yes are easy to set up with Tex. Though I tried to be fairly comprehensive, there are liable to be options I missed. Please don't be afraid to ask if it seems like something I might be open to.
  • Kinks listed as a maybe are potentially possible with sufficient set-up and build-up.
  • Kinks listed as a no won't be possible with Tex.

Character Information
Name: Agent Texas
Series: Red vs. Blue
Appearance: Texas is a CRAU from a game where she was humanized. For these purposes, I use Rachael Taylor as a PB. Taylor is blond, blue-eyed, and of average height. Texas will also have her black MJOLNIR-style Freelancer armor, as seen in the Halo games.
Age: Unknown; around age 5, but mentally an adult.
Canon Point: Season 6 episode 19: The point in time that Washington sets off the EMP.
Transferring From: Thisavrou. During her time there, she struggled quite a bit with the realization that she would be required to be more moderate with her fighting and training activities because of the limitations of the human body she had been placed in when she arrived on the Moira. She eventually received a robot body in the mail, which was a function of the Ingress pulling items in from characters’ home worlds.

Both of the bodies were damaged and she had to accept a body for temporary use from the aliens on the planet.

As it turns out, the aliens were mind-controlling the denizens of the ship, and Tex didn’t discover this until after her human body had been lingering in a coma for over a year. She was able to return to it, only to find it in a weakened state. She had been developing a relationship as well during this year with another character, the detective from Death Note named L, who she knew only as Ryuuzaki. He supported her as she remained in this body for the next two months, eschewing the use of her robot body so she could nurse it back to health.

The pull point I will be using for her is the night after a birthday celebration for Ryuuzaki, when the two had been together only two months.

Canon Personality: Texas plays her cards close to the vest. She has her own reasons for doing things and she tends not to communicate those reasons to others, even when she decides to change her course of action. When circumstances mean she must communicate her thoughts in words or in deeds, the end result will tend to be subtle or understated.

She needs to protect him not only from enemies, but from the truth of learning what had happened to him. She's not afraid to go with Church's interpretation of events in an effort from allowing the truth to hurt him. For example, when he declares to her that he had died and become a ghost, she immediately confirms that his version of events makes sense. She can be a bit cocky, but she doesn't rub her accomplishments or skills in other people's faces—she might remark on her making a headshot or another agent's poor luck, but she'll leave it at that.

Tex's sense of duty leads to a great measure of loyalty being put into play when it comes to things like the effort she puts into helping the human-alien war come to an end, and her efforts to rescue the Alpha AI during the breakdown of the Project. This also leads her her loyalties being divided, and this means she has to use her own sense of morality in making decisions about how to treat the Director, who she knows to be a war criminal. Tex's sense of morality is partly informed by this sense of duty, but also her own selfishness—she's known to be greedy and makes a number of decisions based on her own ability to gain material wealth.

It's notable that Tex doesn't alter her behavior based on how others perceive her actions. She knows she's inscrutable to many of them, but she doesn't resort to explaining herself or changing her behavior. She is who she is, and she owns it. This includes her less savory qualities such as her monetary greed, and her willingness to switch loyalties when the evidence she's presented with shows a better course of action in working toward her goals. But Tex is protective toward those she sees as less able to handle things than she is—although she's generally known as a hardass, she has a lot of tenderness toward them that she keeps under wraps. Even when teasing a friend, she doesn't laugh, only modulates her tone of voice to sound amused and affectionate. Her sarcastic barbs may be pointed but never contain any undue malice.

Her biggest turning points are her discovery of Agent Connecticut's evidence, and later on, the ejection of the Omega AI. Texas didn't know anything about her origins or the fact that she was an AI before finding Connecticut's files, and she changes course in regard to her relationships with the other agents at that time. Before seeing the evidence, she's willing to put up with the fact that she is kept separate from the other agents, but afterward she makes an effort to show interest in their difficulties caused by the Director's experimenting, and befriends Agents North and York, explaining the Project's sins to them so that they will help her overthrow the leadership. When Omega, an embodiment of Alpha's rage, leaves her, it again sharpens her willingness to protect and defend her new friends, the members of the Blood Gulch simulation squads. She goes to a lot of effort to try to kill Omega to protect those soldiers from needing to deal with his cruelty and his ability to take over their emotional states. She knows what hosting Omega is like, and she doesn't believe it's something any of them should be forced to go through.

Personality Shifts: This CRAU version of Tex has learned a bit more about being personable with people who would consider her a friend, and has experience dealing with children and others who she’d never had any chance to interact with as an AI who had been acting as a paramilitary agent. She also is in the process of falling for someone, a character who’s unlikely to show up in this game at any point.

Abilities:As an AI, Tex has a near-perfect ability to predict and counter any fighting moves of her opponents. Not being in her robot body, however, she can’t fight back with the precision she would be used to before she found herself in Thisavrou.
Inventory: Tex will have her black body armor, as well as a pistol she stole during a world-sharing event (from the GTA universe) and a knife she took from an early world-jump.

Sample

Thread Sample: Uploaded is a game that didn't past much past its launch, but I had apped this same CRAU Tex to that game. Here is a selection of TDM threads from that game's TDM.
