Quote (OLD)
Personality: It has been said that those with charisma can become great leaders, regardless of what purpose they devote their leadership to. Dharma is such a person: wily, shrewd, and cunning, but with so much outward charisma that it is difficult to oppose her. She acts like a captain of industry, full of charm, innovation, and caring. Those close to her, however, know that she is actually a card-carrying sadist who takes pleasure in evil almost for the sake of evil.
Her ultimate goal is to make herself better than everyone else in every way that she can; her current enterprise is making her navi the strongest on the net just for the sake of it, although she is going about it in a very unusual way... Recently obsessed with the words of a navi who told her that love was the most powerful force in the world, she is trying to research love in order to harness it as a weapon. This involves a lot of book-reading and online research on what sort of things make a person lovable; therefore, she's having to try to change her personality a lot.
Like many eccentric innovators, she can be off-the-handle wacky with her ambitions and has little common sense. Although her chuckle is regularly dignified and lady-like, she apparently has a hidden mad doctor laugh that very few have heard.
Background: Dharma's name, "Heart Payne," is associated with a lucrative pharmaceutical empire with some marginally questionable product history. Over the net, she has lived as an infamous freelance player-killer with side mercenary work. One of her missions, however, ended in utter failure; she refuses to go into specifics about it even to her closest associates. In this mission, she was told by the do-gooder that love was the most powerful force of all and that a battle would always end in favor of the side of love. She took the words to heart and is now trying to find a way not only to understand love, but also to make it available to her in every battle. Once she figures this out, she will of course continue to use it in the application of dastardly evil.

Dharma is a stranger to all forms of human decency: compassion, empathy, and especially love. All of the emotions she most needs to understand in order to productively run her company are foreign to her, so she's stayed on top purely through her intimidation factor and inherited clout. She has told her research team that she wishes to understand love in order to be able to sell it, but she has made little or no effort to try to fix her personality defects.

Background: Dharma's name, "Heart Payne," is associated with a lucrative pharmaceutical empire with some marginally questionable product history. She has come to believe that true love is one of the great frontiers of pharmacy; an end-goal to be produced through medical means. She's devoted her resources, including research teams, funding, and personal time, to coming up with a brilliant advanced: bottling and selling actual, sentimental feelings. Once she figures this out, she will of course continue to use it in the application of dastardly evil.
