Although she is heavily associated with the /v/idya games board, Pauling plays a more significant role in the tie-in comic series rather than the video game itself. She first appeared in '''''WAR! Comic''''', a webcomic installment released in December 2009 alongside the game's ''WAR! Update'' patch, making her technically a /co/ character (and thus eligible for the [[Ms. /co/ tournaments|Miss /co/]]). This makes her one of the few video game characters to be eligible for both /co/ and /v/ tournaments. The secretary made her first animated appearance on June 2014 as a major character of ''Expiration Date'', a Source Filmmaker promotional movie for the games' ''Love and War Update''. |

Pauling has qualified for two Miss /co/ editions since [[Ms. /co/ 2020|2020]]. She had a breakout performance in [[Ms. /co/ 2021|2021]], securing the 10th seed and reaching the [[Elite Eight]] |
Pauling has qualified for two Miss /co/ editions since [[Ms. /co/ 2020|2020]]. She had a breakout performance in [[Ms. /co/ 2021|2021]], securing the 10th seed and reaching the [[Elite Eight]] by beating "meme pick" [[Karen]] before losing to [[Miss Bellum]] in the quarter-finals. This makes her the first Elite 8 character from a joint property, and also the first webcomic character in a technical sense. Pauling garnered some backlash from some anons during the middle rounds because of her association with a video game instead of a comic / cartoon, and the series writers stating that she's "a lesbian". She's also been featured in several OC pieces, some of which were featured as thread images. |

The secretary's next eligible contest will be in [[Ms. /co/ 2023|2023]] as she will serve a temporary break of [[Ms. /co/ 2022|one year]] |

Despite the series' popularity in 4chan and its heavy presence on the [[King of /v/]] character tournaments, Pauling is yet to qualify for the board's [[Queen of /v/]] bracket. |
