Take your pick:
A) Neither, it's the one that exists in the backstory.
B) The one on the character sheet. This is why the player should be deducted character points when their characterization doesn't match their disadvantages.
C) The one that exists in the minds of all the players and the GM. The character sheet is just a description of the character to give the players and the GM a starting point.
