Carbon Tetrachloride

BORN TO CLEAN FIRE IS A FUCK 四塩化炭素 Extinguish Em All 1820 I am chlorine god 242,336,666,666 DEAD LIVERS Carbon Tetrachloride (Carbon Tet for short, or Tetrachloromethane) is a major character in Chemical Culture. She is mostly known for being a former firefighter and Chloroform's sister. As of 2023, she is 203 years old making her one of the oldest Organochlorides, C. Tetrachloride is 10 years older than Chloroform and 19 years older than her brother Dichloromethane. She lies about being 8 years younger than Chloroform. C. Tetrachloride fakes being French.

Personality and relationships
Carbon Tetrachloride has a dark sense of humour and is seen making jokes about controversial topics and eating people's livers. She never gets angry and is very calm. Often seen calling people and other Chemicals "degenerates". She refuses to use the name "Tetrachloromethane" because she thinks that IUPAC is like "the Illuminati for Chemical folks". She does not want to be organic and her father Carbon Disulphide is responsible for this.

Carbon Tetrachloride used to pretend to be nice and protective towards humans when she was a firefighter because she wanted to be a nice Chemical. It was, again, C. Disulphide who made her accept herself and stop "trying to be who she cannot be". C. Tetrachloride threatens everyone with stealing and eating their livers when they slightly disagree with her. She fakes being French, speaks French with a British accent and calls herself random French names.

Her brothers (Dichloromethane and Chloromethane) meant nothing to her while Chloroform was her "whole world" due to being both her sister and her mother. C. Tetrachloride even threatened Chloromethane. She has been called "Carbon Tit(s)" by DCM. Chloroform defends her more than anyone else. Unlike Chloromethane, DCM and even Chloroform, she did not like Methanol, she called Methanol a "cougar" for DCM. She has called her brothers "degenerates". Despite being a former dry-cleaner and a pioneer in dry-cleaning, C. Tetrachloride despises dry-cleaners. She is much kinder to Tetrachloroethylene whom she spent her early life with.

Appearance
Carbon Tetrachloride is a tall woman with very long, straight dark blue hair and dark red eyes. She has an unusually muscular build for a Chemical. She is paler than Chloroform. She smells like Chloroform and is proud of it.

C. Tetrachloride wears work-appropriate but kind of revealing clothes. Most of her clothes are taken from Chloroform's wardrobe and restyled to fit herself. She styles her hair into 4 braids, just like Chloroform has done for a longer time.

Early life
Carbon Tetrachloride became a firefighter in 1910 and worked as one until the 1980s. She was forced to retire because she "accidentally" killed many humans during duty. She also had a short career in refrigeration like any other person in her family. C. Tetrachloride had another very short but successful career in veterinary medicine which she rarely talks about.

Carbon Tetrachloride opened her first dry-cleaner in the early 1920s. She was very successful in this industry and introduced Trichloroethylene and Tetrachloroethylene into dry-cleaning. Then C. Tetrachloride entirely retired from this industry in the 1960s. C. Tetrachloride made lava lamps and sold them.
