As a child, Deedee was a skilled figure skater, although her career was prematurely ended due to an injury. "...becoming the champion she was always destined to be" is stated as one of her reasons for joining the Astrocitizen program.

Deedee Dawkins has curly blonde hair and pale skin. She wears red lipstick and a red bandana with white dots on her head. Her space suit is cyan with red joints. Her gloves, boots, and collar are a very light shade of blue. As time passes, her hair will grow longer.

She is almost always shown with a cup of coffee.

Background[]

Deedee Events[]

Bad Mood:[]

(If Deedee is your soulmate):

Captain? My sensor detected a sudden dip in your mood. Seeing as your productivity might suffer, I feel obliged to step in, but my emotional capabilities are very limited. You could ask crewmate Dawkins for help. However, I cannot guarantee showing weakness won't undermine your authority as captain. Do you wish to be left alone?

Say Yes:[]

You prefer dealing with things alone. I respect that. I suppose this momentary instability could have been caused by the fact that your home planet was decimated by nuclear war. I'm sure you will get over it eventually

Say No:[]

Despit my best effort to raise your morale with my Social Protocol, you insisted social connection is a basic human need that needs to be fullfilled and asked Deedee for some support. Deedee gave you a friendly pat on the shoulder. She usually keeps her distance so I was surprised to see that. You kept whispering to each other, but you wouldn't tell me what you were talking about. Was it about me? I demand to know, Captain. For the good of this mission. Both of you, stop smilling and tell me!
Despit my best effort to raise your morale with my Social Protocol, in a very uncaptain-ly fashion, you allowed your crewmate Dawkins to see your fragility. Deedee gave you a hearty hug, almost breaking your ribs. She can be really friendly when not provoked and angered unnecessarily. Who would thought. You kept whispering to each other, but you wouldn't tell me what you were talking about. Was it about me? I demand to know, Captain. For the good of this mission. Both of you, stop smilling and tell me!

Deedee's Attitude:[]

(If Deedee is insubordinate):

Captain, Deedee is acting a little... rebelious at the moment. I think she has an attitude problem. At least she's following your orders, but it's obvious she's reluctant about your leadership. Do you wish to reprimand crewmate Dawkins and remind her who's the boss- I mean, the Captain around here?

Say Yes:[]

I don't think taking Deedee aside and mocking a capabilities as an astonaut was the right course of action. She did not look pleased. A few hours later, you felt a sharp sitting in your behind. At first you thought it was your conscience, but it turned out to be just a sharp toothpick on your chair. You screamed and stood up instantly, trashing around, hitting furniture and various objects. Deedee found it funny... It had to be her. How else would that get there? She used to be a waitress you know. Let's hope spitting in other people's food is not a trick in her arsenal, but keep close your soup, just in case +RANDOM gets damaged

Say No:[]

You decided not to reprimand crewmate Dawkins for her behavior... at least not openly. Instead, you delegated her to her ungrateful but necessary job of dusting all the screen on the board. How passive-agressive of you.

Deedee's Boredom:[]

Captain, Deedee is bored. So bored. She doesn't want to bother you, so she won't complain. She just looks around and sighs loudly. If you trust she would not damage anything, you could encouraged her to tinker with something on board. Maybe it would help her to escape the black hole of boredom for a while.

Use Artifact:[]

You handed Deedee the artifact and she was grateful. She told you it reminds her of the funny kids movie she saw while working at the drive-in theater. Deedee made the artifact her DIY project for the afternoon and returned the figurine looking shiny and brand new. It looks much better than before. +Uprgrade "Artifact" to "Extraordinary Artifact"

Use Mask:[]

When you handed Deedee the mask, she got excited. She told you she wore all sorts of fun outfits as a kid. She loves to dress up, she said. She used to have a knack for sewing and jazzing up her outfits. I'm happy to report crewmate Dawkins spruced up the dusty mask significantly, using some bits and bobbles she found aboard. +Upgrade "Mask" to "Full-face Mask"
When you handed Deedee the mask, she got a little teary. She told you she wore all sorts of fun outfits when she works at a drive in theater. She sometimes dressed up as character from the movies to earn extra tips. She used to have a knack for sewing and jazzing up her outfits. I'm happy to report crewmate Dawkins spruced up the dusty mask significantly, using some bits and bobbles she found aboard. +Upgrade "Mask" to "Full-face Mask"

Deedee's Feelings:[]

(If the Captain hasn't soulmate + If the Captain is male) Captain, Deedee keeps staring at you. Yes, she watches you sleep, too. The other day, she asked me all sorts of personal questions about you! Personal, as in they're in your classified personnel file! I would never share your info with anybody, Captain... you're my best friend! Just kidding, it's a protocol. Looks like crewmate Dawkins wishes to get closer to you. Sharing soup cans, washing each other's spacesuits, holding hands, this sort of thing humans do, I assume. I have not seen her open up like this until now, Captain. I'd advice you not to toy with her emotions. What do you say? Do you feel the same about her?

(If the Captain hasn't soulmate + If the Captain is female) Captain, Deedee keeps staring at you. Yes, she watches you sleep, too. The other day, she asked me all sorts of personal questions about you! Personal, as in they're in your classified personnel file! I would never share your info with anybody, Captain... you're my best friend! Just kidding, it's a protocol. Looks like crewmate Dawkins wishes to get closer to you. Sharing soup cans, washing each other's spacesuits, holding hands, this sort of thing humans do, I assume. She even seems willing to let you borrow her coffee mug. I've never seen her let go of it! Remarkable. What do you say? Do you feel the same about her?

(If the Captain has already a soulmate) Deedee has been acting a little weird lately. Whenever you're around and speaking to her, she is all smile, raised heartbeats and red cheeks. But as soon as she's alone with Emmet/Baby/Maegan/Tom/April, she gets quiet and a little upset. My suspicion is that crewmate Dawkins wishes to get closer to you, in a similar fashion you bonded with Emmet/Baby/Maegan/Tom/April... So pick the human you like the most,Captain, and try not to cause tension on the ship. My advice? Be objective. Is Deedee your favourite human on this shuttle?

Say Yes:[]

You made your feeling for crewmate Dawkins clear. There really was no need for the grand gestures, such as shouting about it into the vast cosmos. The vast cosmos does not care, Captain. It is 100% uncaring. Same can't be said about crewmate Dawkins. She cares a great deal, apparently. Try not to mess this up, Captain. Deedee's trust does not come easily. +Deedee becomes you Soulmate
??? +Deedee becomes you Soulmate +Emmet/Baby/Maegan/Tom/April becomes you Enemy

Say No:[]

(If the Captain hasn't soulmate) ???
(If the Captain has already a soulmate) Not sure if it's about the strength of your bond, or about the fact that you picked him/her first, but you decided to stick with crewmate Ellis/Bronco/Mann/Thomson/Angelle. Deedee sighed sadly and said she understood, but it's clear you broke her heart... you monster. Let's hope she gets over this eventually.

Deedee's Injury:[]

Captain, as you know, the Astrocitizen medical files are classified. But lately I've recalculated the chances of anybody above you in the command chain still being alive, and... well, congratulations on your new security clearance. Now that you have access, I can report that there is a serious injury listed in the medical file of crewmate Dawkins, some accident from years ago. I've been monitoring her wellbeing and I saw her clutching her leg in her sleep. Maybe it would be a good idea to ask her about it?

Say Yes:[]

You asked Deedee about the accident. You learned it happened when she was a professional figure skater... and effectively ended her career. She said she suffured an unfortunate fall during a championship show, while attempting to do a quadruple Axel jump. You thought it would lighten her mood a little if she showed you a few figure skating moves she still remembers. She agreed, with some excitement. You mirrored her moves and followed her directions. You have never felt so stretched and flexible in your life! And you might just be the first people to ever do an Axel jump in space. And without ice skates. Surely an achievement... of some sort.

Say No:[]

I'm quite certain the accident is connected to her figure skating career. But since Deedee didn't share, you choose not to pry. You only let her know that you have her back in case anything happend. I detected Deedee's heartbeat raise when you were talking. Weird, her file does not mention arrythmia... I wonder what this means. Ant idea, Captain? Should I be worried about her?

Good Friend:[]

(If Deedee is your Friend):

Captain, crewmate Dawkins is staring at you and smilling. It's a little disturbing, to be honest. She's doing it for a while now. She say she only want to chat and "lift your spirits" because you "look a little down". I believe Deedee is just trying to be a..."Good Friend". But, Captain... you're busy right now. You know, doing Captain stuff. You're the boss here, but I think you should not abandon your post for some idle chats. Do you wish to mingle with the crew?

Say Yes:[]

You spent the most of the afternoon with Deedee, discussing about your favourite coffee beens and sowing me obscene hand gestures. How dare you. I'm writing this down as insubordination. Stop laughing at once.

Say No:[]

A reasonable choice - focusing on your duties insted of iddle chats. A good crew should know better than to drag a Captain away from his/her work. You work hard, so others can sleep peacefully. You kept tapping on different buttons mindlessly but Deedee kept distracting you and you couldn't keep a straight face. Captain, keep your crewmates in line! No lollygagging.

Lack Of Caffeine:[]

(If Deedee is insane):

Captain, I need to report an issue with crewmate Dawkins. She is shivering in the corner, mumbling to herself and shouting you furious looks. My records show she used to have a substance addiction, namely caffeine. This may be a withdrawal symptom. She claims you snore really loud and it's driving her crazy. I can't say whether this is true or not, I have better things to do than watching you sleep. Nevertheless, you could take some safety precautions. Just in case this gets out of control.

Use Armor:[]

You dodged a bullet there, Captain. Well, actually it was a coffee mug. Good thing you wore that armor to sleep. You failed to difuse the situation with Deedee and things went flying in the shuttle. Let's hope her withdrawal symptoms go away soon...

Use Nothing:[]

???

Trivia[]

In Scavenging mode, Deedee has the highest running speed due to having the best Agility in the game, making her one of the best scavengers next to Baby Bronco.

She is the only character in 60 Parsecs! that makes a cameo in the game's prequel 60 Seconds! on the Dolores DLC. She also appears in a promotional picture of the DLC, seemingly working as a waitress.
When Deedee is insane, she grows paranoid of her cup of coffee.
- However, when she's Well-Fed and Insane, she looks disgusted at her coffee.
It appears that Deedee used to live in a small apartment near the family in 60 Seconds! where the whole place smelled of coffee, filled with tons of coffee beans inside her room. This information was revealed in the Dolores DLC of 60 Seconds!

If Dawkins is the player's soulmate, there is an event that can reveal her past as an athlete.

The player will learn that Deedee was a professional figure skater until her accident from years ago (this is also an achievement),
- Deedee said she suffered an unfortunate fall during a champion show while attempting to do a quadruple axel jump, which is what effectively ended her career.
If Deedee was picked as a crew member, died during the run, and you got a good ending, she is represented by her coffee cup broken with lipstick marks on the lid.

During scavenging, you can see Deedee spilled coffee.

In the event with Laika if you are aiming for the heist ending, She reveals that her middle name is David.

In an event, Deedee will tell you that she sleeps holding her leg because of her untimely injury.
