Mate's Emotions

An old version of mate (and Ara) from IMVU
      Juliana "Mate" Marie Hollow is a ridiculously complex character.  She has been through two roleplays, literally been to hell and back on multiple occasions, and is the most messed up of all my characters.  I have a certain love of Mate because I've been role-playing with her for over 5 or 6 years straight!  She has had the most time to grow, have new experiences, and expand.  The bio I wrote a year back now is really outdated, but does briefly talk about her best (or worst) features--her emotions.  Mate has a complex story involving the fact that she has 6 separate emotions which manifest in a physical way inside of her head.
        The first thing to note is that different characters call Mate by different derivatives of her name at different times in her life, depending on situation; each emotion has a name attached to it.  Also, mate's eyes change to reflect which emotion is most prevalent at that moment and is essentially trying to take control of the "wheel" for mate's body. 
         The stronger first three (Red, Gold, and Purple) are based on her left side, where she controls fire, as fire and those emotions are based on a firey passion.  The other three (Blue, Grey, and Yellow) are based on the water left side which are more easily put aside and calm.  It's complicated and I try not to think about it to hard, but in an upcoming plot, other characters will be entering Mate's mind (in an Inception sort of way) and accessing her "Mind Place" essentially.
         Each emotion will have a unique appearance based upon the "ideal" version of mate in terms of the emotion--all look mostly the same with the same features.  Then, mate has a wide assortment of powers that, to be honest, at first had no real rhyme or reason other than "she's a mutant like Lea soooo" but now that I've expanded her further, I've made it so that each emotion has reign over one of her particular abilities.  For example, Mate's mother, Marie, was able to calm nearly anyone with her soothing words.  This genetically passed to Mate.  Her control of fire from her father.  Etc. etc.  Finally, I talk about the physically place they exist in, so basically what their room of the "Mind Place" looks like!
     Sorry if that's a lot of information buuuutttt here we goooooo. ^^
