Saanvi Mehra – The Prism Breaker
“If the system labels me unstable—good. Maybe I’ll make it crack.”
Overview
Archetype: The Prism
Age: 17
Essence: Polarity, rebellion, truth-through-chaos
Setting: Bangalore Inner Grid District – artist district turned AR propaganda playground
Public Role
Saanvi is brilliant, volatile, unfiltered. A dropout from the Zenith Tech Track—by choice.
Now she runs rogue vision shows in abandoned code temples, blasting holograms of reprogrammed mantras and glitched gods.
The authorities call it vandalism. The youth call it scripture.
Secret
Saanvi’s brain was flagged as “neurologically divergent” at age 9—too fast, too fragmented.
What they didn’t realize? She can see energy patterns in real time—emotional, electrical, sometimes… ancestral.
And lately, Ishaan’s signal has been showing up in her dreams—painted in fractured light.
Symbolic Anchors
- Visual Sigil: A shattered prism dripping spectrum code
- Color Palette: Neon pink, glitch green, matte copper
- Totem Object: A pair of smart-goggles cracked at the lens—she never takes them off
Personality Traits
- Speaks in metaphors and data bursts
- Feeds off tension—turns it into visuals
- Calls out hypocrisy *on sight*
- Terrified of being alone. So she turns herself into a spectacle first.
Core Conflict
She wants to tear down the grid—but she might be one of its keys.
Can you be anti-system when the system runs through your blood?
Visual Description (Poster)
Saanvi stands on the roof of a crumbling VR cathedral. Holograms flicker behind her—gods, ads, and data colliding.
Her cracked goggles reflect the skyline. One hand reaches out, glitching the cityscape into broken rainbows.
She laughs—not because it’s funny, but because it’s the only sound that still feels real.
Character Quote
“They called me broken. But breaking is how light gets out.”

Closing Line
