Shiv Roy

Personality

Shiv Roy initially prefers to separate herself from the family's right-wing conglomerate, opting to work in liberal politics. However, upon receiving an irresistible offer from her father, she chooses to sacrifice her political career and finds herself in the shadow of her equally power-hungry brothers. Though seemingly assertive and confident, Shiv is at her core a damaged and conflicted woman. She is poised, intelligent, and strategic. Shiv often comes across as the most relaxed, reasonable member of her family. She’s smart and savvy and has a level of emotional maturity that her brothers lack. Yet, like all the Roy siblings, Shiv has deep insecurities that stem from a desire to impress her cold, distant father. Though she tries to project a sense of total confidence, she can be tentative for fear of making a mistake. She knows the smartest way to answer a tricky question is often, “We'll make a decision and get back to you shortly.” Siobhan Roy is a proud, assertive, confident, and at times arrogant woman. Wanting to make her own way in life, she initially chose to begin a career separate from Waystar Royco and her father, becoming a political consultant. However, during her short career, she showed an amount of ignorance, a carelessness towards potential voters, and a complete lack of loyalty, as she originally backed one candidate only to switch to her father's long time enemy, Senator Eavis, when he began to look more prosperous. Although she doesn't outright state it, it is clear that Shiv joins being the favored woman in the family hierarchy, and does not like being demeaned or excluded by people such as her father on account of her gender.. However, Shiv is also a hypocrite, as she despises associating with other women who she doesn't respect, such as Marcia or Willa.

Relationship with her siblings Logan and Roman

Shiv seems to have a positive relationship with her siblings, but is closer with Roman and Kendall than with Connor. When not involved in the power fight for the succession, Shiv likes to have fun with them and mess around doing some jokes particularly with Roman, with who usually act childish to the point of even engaging in physical fights. Despite the fact she loves her siblings, Shiv is not above lying or betraying them in order to get what she wants. Nevertheless everytime one of them is facing a harsh time she is always there for support, like when she and Roman comforted Kendall when was suffering from a serious depression, or when in Logan's funeral Roman had a breakdown she and Kendall approached and comforted him.
