Foresight has a room that is full of calendars in her house, some that are for dates that are months away and some for years down the road. She has a house that she shares with Patience, who she is content to while away the hours until one of her plans are in need of her sometimes ally, sometimes enemy Action. Foresight’s favorite phrase is a simple “I Told you so” and she always seems to be saying it to her younger brother Hindsight, who refuses to admit that he was wrong. She understands that not everyone enjoys her company as much as they do Action’s but she also knows that without her Action has trouble being the life of the party.
Unlike Patience who is willing to calmly watch the time pass, Foresight has an almost obsession with time. She seems to always be looking so far ahead into the future that she forgets where she is in the present, which causes Patience to have to often stay near her so that she does not miss her own plans for the future.
The only person who spends more time with Foresight than Patience is her brother Hindsight. When the two hangout they always bicker about what happened and what is going to happen, never what is happening.
There seems to be only one person who can get under Foresight’s skin and that is Gossip, he seems to always catch wind of whatever foresight is planning and waiting for and his first response is always to tell anyone and everyone, which naturally ruins Foresight’s planning because suddenly all the things she was planning around are now changed.
No matter what happens to her plans she knows that either she will start a new plan or others will ask her for her input, because no matter the plan whether it is something as small as going to the park later or as grand as toppling empires, without her assistance they will always fail.
