A blue jumpsuit of sorts with a tool belt on her hips, Tryke has mustard yellow gloves that seem to be always covered in something. When she's off the job, her outfit hardly changes -- she trades in the jumpsuit for a tank top, jeans, and a mechanic's jacket. A few tools usually stick out of her pocket, and no matter what she's doing, she always has the same pair of glasses on her forehead. While they may look like sunglasses, they help her see different frequencies of waves -- infared, gamma rays, and so forth -- when she's working. She also always wears the same pair of clunky brown boots.

In a way, Tryke looks for perfection, and attempts to create it in her own life. When perfection is impossible (as it normally is), she becomes quite angry, throwing herself at the problem until it is solved--no matter the mental strain. Everything has to follow the rules of logic and order, and failure, certainly, is [i]not[/i] an option. However, from her immense drive comes some better qualities: resourcefulness. Clever and able to look around the obvious, Tryke can come up with ten options where most people can only think of five. She is always looking for another way around an obstacle, and sometimes, she prefers the clever way to the easy way. Every possibility is thoroughly examined, and she's a skeptic at heart. To her, anything can be thought out logically -- and when it can't, there's a fuse about to be blown.

With the atmosphere no longer hostile to humans, large cities were erected, with most of them sealing the inhabitants inside. The planet still remains largely poisonous, but Tryke's mother, an environmental scientists, is helping to lead efforts to help tame the planet. Tryke was born a few years after her parents married, her father working as a laborer. When she was young, Tryke was always fascinated with technology. Broken machines seemed to find their way to her, and she would fix them with ease. Eventually, other people on Venus came to her on a regular basis, helping to hone her unique talent with fixing things. She understood machines in a way she couldn't exactly understand people--she could find the problem and fix it. It was simple, and it was logical. And while Tryke did have minor telekinesis, she often just used it in order to have a steadier "hand" when doing her repairs. At age sixteen, the GTC began to train her. She learned how to enhance her abilities through crystals, using the energy they provided to quickly locate trouble areas in larger machines than the little wind-up toys she fixed at a young age. The GTC quickly knew that Tryke would serve nicely as a repair specialist, despite that field being dominated by men. Eventually, by the end of her training, Tryke was able to quickly locate the problem in massive spacecraft, and with the aid of her crystal, repair it in minutes. Given her great potential in repair, the GTC sent Tryke out to Altenia, a location ripe with black crystals. It made sense--in order to harvest the maximum amount of crystals, all of the equipment and the mines would need to be functioning properly. Tryke was just the person to fulfill that particular task.
