CRAU (if any): Come Sail Away. Gwen was a relatively late arrival to the Serena Eterna, turning up in time to have only about 8 months aboard. She started off trying to hide that she was Spider-Woman, a deception that immediately fell apart with certain people and inevitably fell apart with everyone else. The big things that happened for her come down to 1) making and opening up to a couple of close friends, 2) having her memories probed by a symbiote, 3) getting brainwashed into trying to help trap the passengers in a village built on psychological torture and ultimately killing someone whilst under the influence of this and 4) starting to seriously question if canon events are actually as simple as they seem.

History: My write-up here under History, since I've had to do a lot of filling in using comic canon that isn't on her wiki page.
Personality: Gwen puts on a front of confidence and composure that, frankly, does not go as deep beneath the surface as she'd like you to think. In the early days of her time as Spider-Woman she was a lot more relaxed and cocky, despite the necessary secrecy, but after accidentally killing Peter when he became the Lizard, her attitude shifted. Though she is still quippy and outwardly confident when she's acting Spider-Woman, in her personal life she became depressed and avoidant, closing herself off from everyone else in her life so as not to risk hurting them. Her real emotions get bottled up underneath whatever mask she's putting on that day and only get released through fights as Spider-Woman or playing the drums with violent passion.

Beneath all the angst, she's a kind of goofy, awkward teenager who doesn't really know how to do this 'friends' thing anymore despite latching onto surprisingly quickly when she feels that someone understands her. She makes bad jokes, she stumbles over things, she blurts out the first thing on her mind, she has no idea how to endear herself to people's parents. She's a little desperate for approval from other and especially senior Spider-People and yet also isn't afraid to give them a bit of attitude. She's snarky and blunt and can be rude, sometimes, on purpose or not.

There's a certain divide between her identity as Gwen Stacy, Normal Girl and Gwen Stacy, Spider-Woman. She usually keeps them separate, but that's not how she wants it to be, and so the line has been blurring more and more lately.

Initial Game Plan: Gwen's more than used to the concept of alternate universes at this point, so despite being a bit shaken up by the whole 'oh shit did I actually die?' thing, she'll be set to start just throwing herself into things again. Reconnect with old CR, start making new friends, not try to hide being Spider-Woman for no goddamn reason... she'll want to poke into the music scene at some point, too. She will refuse to go to school, lmao.
RP Interests: Someone please try to adopt this girl. She sorely needs a decent adult figure in her life but she's got Issues. Found family, music friends, goth/punk friends, people to joke around with, so on, so forth. I want to get her to finish unpacking more of the canon event stuff and her complicated feelings around her dad, plus her complicated feelings about violence that were made worse by the village, as well as actually get used to opening up to people instead of isolating herself.
Preferred Job: She'd probably want to apprentice as either some kind of seamstress or musician.
NSFW-friendly?: Minor!
