[b]Appearance:[/b]
In Meins natural form, she stands at around 5'9. Like all of her kind, she is covered in a thin layer of 'Slime' or 'Goo' that allows her to pretty much change her appearance into those of other species as she sees fit. Hers, is a silvery color and cool to the touch. Most humans would likely find her natural form to be on the 'exotically appealing' spectrum, considering her rather ample assets in most areas. Which of course, causes her no great end of amusement. She likes the attention. If one were to touch it - and lets be honest she likes being asked if people can touch her - it would feel cool, smooth, and somewhat pliable.

She dislikes people knowing both what she is, and what she looks like, however. Typically she takes a human form when dealing with others. Deception was a skill needed in her previous profession after all, and if people didn't know what you were or what you actually look like, it makes things so, so much easier as long as you could get past any high-tech security and whatnot.

Her human form looks, well, a bit similar to what she actually looks like. Slightly shorter, with copper colored eyes and silvery white hair adorning her head typically tied back into a ponytail. She has a somewhat more slender and lithe build whilst looking like this, and typically uses a lower tone of voice than her usually more melodic voice.

That said, she doesn't keep to one human form often and tends to never use one more than once.

[color=silver]"Tsk, years of hard 'work' down the drain."[/color]

[b]Equipment:[/b]
N/A for now. She had a rather fancy high-tech custom melee weapon for close engagements, Arraxi made armor, and an illegally modified assault rifle, and a powerful handgun she used to have. It was confiscated upon her arrest, and is likely still in the wreckage unless its been picked over by scavengers. She intends to reclaim it the first moment she gets - with a little help, if she can employ it.

[b]Attunement/enhancements:[/b]
[i][b]Enhancements:[/b][/i]
Mien has a number of enhancements designed to help her do one thing: Espionage, Killing and getting away with it, and survive even mostly fatal wounds. Of course, none of these augments were given in a consensual manner as they were surgically implanted by the guy who took her in, but they are useful regardless. She also has been given a few genetic modifications from a young age to help in certain 'asset' areas.

[i][u]Type-N Nanomachines:[/u][/i] These black market, self-replicating Arraxi make machines were designed for two purposes. Firstly, they act as both an immuno booster for keeping away sickness, cleaning the bloodstream of any unwanted foreign material such as poison and other toxins, etc. They generally are there for keeping Mien in top physical condition no matter what, and to promote the healing of wounds as well as muscle growth, earning a much more effective workout from even light exercise. A small cut could heal in minutes, a medium sized gash could heal completely in a day or two. Even a fatal wound, if treated correctly within time could be healed with just a small scar. They are fairly self autonomous and function well enough on their own.  They are genetically 'locked' to Mien, however, and will not function for anyone else and will shut down the moment outside of her bloodstream. If scanned, they appear no different than any other standard human make machines of similar model.

While a normal person would only have them present in their bloodstream, they have also taken residence in Mien's outer covering of Goo, which leads to some interesting applications considering that these are, indeed, black-market nanomachines with a second deadly function. She comments they're the reason her goo is actually silver colored.

In short, Mien has top-human physical strength, reaction times, as well as better healing than most humans could possibly hope to have without having replaced limbs with artificial ones.

[i][u]Neural Link Focus: NLF[/u][/i]
Nervous system uplink via a small implant just above the right ear that's connected to her nervous system. It brings up a holographic display that can do a number of things similar to those with artificial eyes. Mostly, its for monitoring her own physical conditions, give limited readings about the conditions of the area, give her reads on technology and allows her to interface with them via wireless connections if she's close enough. It allows her control over the nanomachines present in her bloodstream and has an on-board computer that handles the more complex tasks after being given a command.

[i][b]Unique Abilities:[/b][/i]
[i][u]Type-N Nanomachines:[/u][/i]
As previously stated, they are black market and illegal for a reason. Traditionally, these model of Nanomachines were used to discreetly assassinate certain organics for either the Arraxi government. While at first they do function as something that can keep one extremely healthy and in peak physical condition, they have a second function that makes them rather dangerous. That function, is the complete and utter destruction of a creatures organic material. With the Neural Uplink she has a somewhat limited control over this function.

The ability of this function is dulled somewhat by the fact the nanomachines simply cannot function outside of Mien's bloodstream or outer shell of goo, but it's still fairly dangerous for any organic to have a large amount on them. Once activated, they will eat away at organic material for about 1.5 seconds before shutting down completely, leaving only metal residue behind. For the most part, they do not affect Mien since with the help of the Uplink she can simply either shut them down or have the other nanomachines deal with them.

Effectively this means, she [i]could[/i] touch someone and give them small burn-like damage on their flesh. It's not something that could easily be used though, and armor works well since it only breaks down organic material. Really great in surprise situations, though, and worked wonders for her old stealth operations.

[i][u]Machine Override:[/u][/i]
While Miens does have some basic understanding of computer code and other such topics, she's far from a master hacker. That said, it doesn't particularly matter when a computer can do most of those things for you. The uplink is able to hack machines via wireless connections and override them and give them a new set of commands. Wireless alarms, robots, etc. With enough time, it could theoretically hack almost anything. It can only have a handful of open connection at a time though. Trying to do multiple things, typically ends with a severe headache and perhaps worse. She has never tested that theory. It also comes with a manual uplink for more secure machines without a wireless interface.


[b]Personality:[/b]
Confident, charismatic, and more than a little on the promiscuous side, Mien comes off as incredibly friendly most of the time - perhaps a bit overly so at times. The Sapishte greatly enjoys being around others and the general company of them, though some might find her company in particular a bit...not all that welcome. Since well, she flirts with pretty much everything with legs and seems to take a bit of enjoyment in making people uncomfortable and teasing them about certain subjects. One should never take her teasing or words all to seriously, and you'll get along with her fine. If you happen to tease or flirt back though, she'll be your new best friend. Typically, she maintains her calm in a lot of situations, as she'll comment living in the underbelly of society as she has you tend to see a lot. Far too much.

Delve a bit deeper though, and you'd find that she's one of the rare Sapishte able to greatly hide her emotions from others. Mien is incredibly intelligent, calculating, manipulative, and above all sadistic and incredibly cruel when it comes to her own goals. She wants what she wants, and absolutely nothing will stand in her way. If she can't persuade the problem to join her through some means or join her...well. It won't be pretty. She wasn't the head of a criminal organization, albeit only for a few years for nothing, and intends to rebuild what she lost.

That said, she is incredibly loyal to those who work for her, and for the most part is honest - so long as they remain useful and remain loyal themselves. Of course, she's not afraid to cut away a cancer at the core should it prove to be malignant, but for the most part if you have her back, and she'll have yours as long as you, under no circumstances, make her believe you could potentially put a wrench in her plans. Even then, she'd stab you in the front rather than the back - but she will make it hurt in the worst way possible.

[b]Bio:[/b]
Mien was born around 26 years ago on the planet, Glonelia, the humid and somewhat low tech, mostly jungle and swampy homeworld of the, Sapishte. She never had the intention to ever become a slaver, drug dealer, smuggler, murderer or hitman. Sometimes life deals people bad hands, and they have to make do. She won't give you a sob-story though. She's had it good, for what she's had to work with.

Mienieve Shalloyth was your average Sapishte for most of her first years of life. The Sapishte, being the emotional people they were, were easy enough to grow up with. Generally the race of shapeshifters were viewed as an honest, if not somewhat promiscuous race by the rest of the galaxy considering their inability to hide their emotions all that well. It also typically made them poor liars and perhaps a bit easily manipulated, especially to those of other races with less than honest intentions.

From an early age she distinctly knew she was different from the rest of her peers. Where they had trouble hiding the slightest emotion whether it being happiness, joy, rage or lust, Mien always felt her own emotions were rather...muted, by comparison. Somewhat dulled, as if there was some sort of thick barrier between her and them. Not that she felt nothing mind you, she did, but they were always a bit dull in comparison to the rest of the Sapishte, and didn't know how to properly express them most of the time. Knowing the taboo though, she learned from an early age to be able to mimic the emotions expected of her quite well.

When she was thirteen though, her life took a turn for the worse.

Her parents were murdered. She swears she didn't do it, but after questioning and a bit of talking with child services it became rather apparent she was extremely...adroit, and self aware about her condition even from a young age. Of course, upon finding this out she was labeled an abomination and basically exiled from the planet. Supposedly, she was to be taken care of on earth at some human orphanage by a distant relative, but that didn't exactly go as planned. The handlers, both fearing and hating the 'mutant' decided to drug her, dump her in some random alleyway in some slums and let whatever happen, happen.

Of course, a thirteen year old girl in a shady slum with the ability to shapeshift made her a pretty...desirable target for certain undesirables. If it wasn't for the owner of a shady brothel taking her in for some less than morally correct purposes she probably would have ended up a lot worse. It wasn't really that good - but she couldn't complain, really. So for the next few years of her life she worked as one might expect of someone who lives in a brothel...as well as an assassin for the owners enemies. 

She was made a choice, after resisting one of the customers with more deviant tastes. Her 'Owner' gave her a choice. Either be forced into this line of work for the rest of her life (where she would likely die)...or become his personal plaything and the guy who takes care of 'problems'. Not having any much of a choice, seh agreed. So after sinking some money into expensive enhancements and a method of control, he turned her into one of the best.

Murder, drugs, and sex! The most fun things in the world.

Until she turned twenty one, she honed her combat abilities and. The owner of the brothel had expanded his business quite a bit with her help, making her take out his enemies and securing his position of power in the cities underworld as well as the higher class markets. Unfortunately for him, he hadn't turned a lost little girl into a mindless killing drone via abuse and other things like he had hoped. Stubbornness is best tempered with cunning, after all.

She was merely biding her time.

For the next two years, she plotted under his nose. She gathered a few allies and people who were either dissatisfied with the status quo, or generally not happy with how things were going. She promised a few girls in the brothel that if they helped they could leave if they wanted. She said she'd end any dealings with drugs, slavery, and many other less desirable things.

After two years had passed, she initiated her little violent coup of his business. The news reports say the found his body hanging upside down from a skyscraper drowned, beheaded, and tortured. After she had control, what else to do but to tighten her iron grip on it? Those people working in the brothel she said could go home? She simply traded them away to some slavers for new stock. Those who helped her? Dealt with. Harshly.

She had successfully, at the age of 22, taken over one of the largest criminal organizations on earth and there was no one that could do anything about it. Drugs, illegal slavery, prostitution, smuggling and even a little mercenary work for certain interested parties. Anything illegal you can think of that could bring in profit, they had their hands in. For once in her life, she felt content. Joy, even.

[i]Safe[/i]

She would have likely remained as its head for years, since the police were absolutely baffled. How did one catch a shape-shifter who didn't even use her normal form inside her own home? Someone who always chose a different guise when going out? Not to mention meticulous enough to not leave any evidence or any ties to hit men or assassins being used. They didn't have anything they could convict her with despite knowing full well what she was up to.

One person she hired as someone to handle their more cyber-related crimes and other things, ended up squealin' like a pig to the cops after he was busted. Without giving her time to flee or clear house, they raided her house but she was ready. Having loyal people working for on the other end paid off sometimes. She put up a hell of a fight according to the police report. Killed at least a five cops, several security drones, and even managed to fatally wound the police chief. Having the best technologically advanced weapons and enhancements from Arraxi paid off.

It wasn't enough, though.

In the end, she was subdued and arrested and had a one-way ticket to Alcatraz.

One of these days she's going to find that bastard who ratted her out.

And she's going to make him wish he was dead.

...though, perhaps, she could use this even to start over. Start an entirely new life from scratch? Wouldn't be difficult. Most people would probably believe her to be dead. Old enemies...the government. Perhaps she should quit while she's ahead.

[u][i]Other:[/i][/u]
Before she became the ringleader of a crime syndicate for a few years, she was a trained assassin, hit man, and used for espionage work. She is talented in hand-to-hand combat, use of firearms of all kinds, stealth and acrobatics, and bladed weaponry.

[b]Name:[/b]
Deseri Linvall
Alternatively: 'Omega'

[b]Race:[/b]
Human, if she could still be called that.

[b]Age:[/b]
27

[b]Gender:[/b]
Female/Genderless nanite Swarm

[b]Appearance:[/b]
You would be forgiven for thinking Deseri is some sort of android from the sheer amount of metal she has showing on her body. Her entire left arm from the elbow down has been replaced with a large, metallic fitting resembling some sort of triangular stake when in its resting state. A series of cables and tubes connect it to her lower back and spine in various places.

The rest of her body is equally mechanical in nature. The 'body suit' she wears is more akin to a protective outer shell that has been secured to her body by a series of locks, screws, and bolts, that would require a bit of work to remove. This is the 'base' of her augments, and her arms and legs function entirely from it. Her arms and legs themselves are made of a synthetic mesh-weave that is more durable and resistant to burning than natural human skin. Artificial muscle fibers are easily seen under the skin, ensuring that she is more than a match for most humans. Various empty access ports can be seen all over her body - for use with linking up with her exo-suit.

Aside from her heavy augments, Deseri stands at a fair five foot seven, and her mechanical eyes glow a luminescent orange. Her 'hair' has a natural color of grey-white. She has an overall slim body build, and if it wasn't for the wires, mechanical augments, and her attitude she probably wouldn't be all too intimidating. She weighs around 192lbs, thanks to all the metal in her system. Staring at her too long might prove creepy, when you realize she doesn't blink and constantly has a wide-eyed gaze.


[b]Equipment:[/b]
N/A

[b]Attunement/enhancements:[/b]

[hider=General Enhancements]
[u][i]Swarm Multi-Processing:[/i][/u]
While she was nearly savant-level genius when it came to cybernetics and robotics, with the addition of being able to delegate thoughts and tasks to the 'Swarm' as it were, she is able to seemingly think and process thoughts much faster than a normal human would be able too. Basically, think of it similar to a computer with many, many, processors that are able to run tasks and thoughts simultaneously.

[u][i]Bionic Reinforcement:[/i][/u]
Deseri's physical body has almost ceased being organic in most aspects. She is heavily augmented, sporting an almost obscene level of enhancement only seen elsewhere in the Arraxi. Eyes, spine, limbs, muscles, skin...the only part of her that isn't completely augmented in some way is her mind, and even that has some modifications to allow her to process the Swarm. All four of her main limbs have been entirely replaced with metal augments, and the bones in her torso and chest have been reinforced with metal alloys. Overall she would be extremely durable and can withstand quite a bit of punishment before showing some wear or tear. Her 'Organs' Are similarly reinforced, but would still cripple her if they were injured in a major way. 

[u][i]Bio-fuel engine:[/i][/u]
As per their nature, the Swarm runs on a special Bio-fuel made from consuming organic compounds. In order to facilitate this with Deseri, the swarm has made it so that any food she eats instead of going through the normal digestive process, instead produces this bio-fuel. Effectively, this means she can eat pretty much anything so long as its organic. She has long sense lost her sense of taste, so she can't really complain too much, though she still gets 'hungry' more often than most humans.

[u][i]Nanophage Bio-Weapon: Omega Class[/i][/u]
These? These things are nothing more than a plague. An extremely [i]dangerous[/i] nano-phage based plague created as an efficient bio-weapon by some Arraxi extremists, using Deseri as a host for them. They are designed for only one thing - consuming and destroying organic matter, and assimilating metals and other inorganic compounds for use. The nanites have no no true intelligence, despite seeming like they are quite often and function via a hive-mind like consciousness, with Deseri as their 'queen'. The Phage's main goal is to parasitize organic creatures and bring them under its 'control'.

Thankfully for her, the hive mind has decided that it is best if its host retains its free-will in order to operate at maximum efficiency, but that doesn't stop it from exerting some control over Deseri. The Hive-mind as one might expect, is extremely logical, always urging Deseri to take the mostly logical route when dealing with things. The only thing overriding this directive, is its desire to consume organic matter and assimilate metals for use in its swarm. The machines run on bio-fuel, broken down from organic substances so it is imperative that it consumes a steady supply of organic material. What kind, it isn't picky - but it is ravenous and passes this along to Deseri at times.

They are extremely vulnerable to EMP's and electrical shocks outside of the host's body, and a well placed EMP grenade or other similar object will likely take out a number of them, at least long enough to create an opening. Failing that, energy weapons work best. Cutting some off from the rest of the swarm, will greatly reduce their intelligence and efficiency, as they work best in large numbers where their hive-mind works best.

Like an insect hive, the swarm can not function well without its 'Queen'. They can exist without ever her controlling them - but the further they stray from the 'Queen' or some other control node or operator of some sort, they basically loose any higher functions they might have. Stray far enough away and they'll just be harmless mosquitoes that just like nibbling on people and unable to use any more of their higher functions. In such a situation, they would likely disperse or enter a hibernation state as self-preservation protocols trumped any sort of other things.

They have about half a mile range from a 'Queen' before they start loosing functionality, which would drop exponentially depending on how many 'Units' are in the individual swarm. (Since Nanites are rather small, lets say a single unit would be a loose mass of them about the size of a basketball, if that makes sense.) I'd say they would need around 20-30 individual 'units' within a half-mile radius to retain their higher functions at a further distance away from the Queen. This would include the Hephaestus-morphing and the ability to 'assimilate' metals and things.

[/hider]

[i][b]Unique Ability:[/b][/i]
[i]Hephaestus-class Multi-Tool: Phage Corrupted[/i]
An experimental tool she developed some years ago, and being infected with the Phage, who quickly adapted its technology and abilities for itself. The weapon was built to be a multipurpose tool for welding, self defense, and well...everything! It was made with expensive nano tech that could shift and re-purpose its form from a command from the holder of it, effectively granting the user access to any tool it might have need of so long as it was within the units memory banks and it had the material to do so. It could shift into melee weapons, cannons, work tools...anything, really. Without getting into too much technoabble, it accomplished this by extremely powerful and small mag-locks, and a neural or some sort of suit uplink. Originally, it was just restricted to the owners lower arm, where they would hold the tool, though Deseri was a special case, in having the tool grafted directly to her lower left arm to compensate for an accident during a [i]ahem[/i] *weapons* test.

When the phage took it over, they adapted this tech into their own design using mechanical knowledge taken from Deseri's mind. Thus, this enables her to effectively command the nanites and allow them to mold her own body to an extent, now that it's mostly been completely replaced with metal. Razor sharp blades capable of slicing, guns, and any logical weapon in the swarms memory banks. It should be noted the swarm is incapable of learning new things on its own. It has to rely on its 'queen' for that, or by consuming and breaking down already existing things.

Her favorite use of this is the old energy cannon she frequently used back before all this happened. It's able to fire blasts of orange, white-hot energy of varying degrees.

[i]Omega Swarm:[/i]
Deseri has nigh complete control over the swarm, though at times it seems to resist her influence if it finds what her human mind is doing illogical. Still, the hive-mind more or less follows the lead of its queen as long as its able to achieve its directive of 'consuming' and 'assimilating'. Her body has been designed by the swarm to passively generate these, though they're not a great number or amount of them, especially with the non-aggression field. She would need some time to have the swarm make more.

Still, she can control them outside of her body and have them do a variety of tasks. With them having picked up the design from the Hephaestus prototype, she can effectively turn them into a variety of different things on the fly. Attack drones, repair drones, and things of similar nature until they are destroyed or she commands them to do something else. Or she can keep them as the swarm they are, and have them attempt assimilating or consuming something.

The Swarm is a very logical being. It might only have semi-sentience, but it does understand that its 'queen' is more 'intelligent' than it. So more likely than not, unless she does something directly against their main programming protocols they will listen to her 99% of the time. For the most part, unless they need fuel they are fairly docile, so long as they have enough fuel to function then they shouldn't be too bad of a problem unless the swarm is allowed to grow unchecked. The larger it is, the amount of bio-fuel it would need.

The way they work is fairly simple: The queen suggests something - the swarm okays it or doesn't. They propose something else, which the rest of the swarm Okays and then the queen rejects. Process repeats until either the Swarm gets cranky or they reach a shared conclusion. In case of Swarm getting cranky, Deseri can exert some control over them as a sort of their leader, and in the case of division where some repeatedly agree and some don't the ones who side with the Queen will then proceed to cannibalize the ones who don't.

[b]Personality:[/b]
On first appearance 'Deseri' is a fairly amicable and overall lackadaisical person with a habit of making sarcastic comments. She enjoys working on machines, likes fiddling with robots and other such things. She spends most of her free time fiddling with her own body or communicating with her swarm. Oddly enough, she's rather happy with her position. A little [i]too[/i] happy to figure out what they can do at their full potential.

She takes a fairly friendly, if sometimes overly friendly or familiar one towards other people and for the most part aside from speaking in plurals such as 'we' 'they' and 'the swarm', astoundingly normal upon first glance. At least, until the swarm starts getting hungry. And as ravenous as it is, that is more often than not.

She can and will, tell the swarm to devour people whole to satisfy their fuel. For the most part, she can placate the small number of the swarm with simple human food, as her body doesn't digest things normally any more, instead turning anything eaten into organic bio-fuel to fuel her various mechanical parts and the swarm itself. When the swarm 'Assumes' control so to speak either through perceived self-preservation or through appetite, she becomes a merciless thing. Cold, cruel, logical, and will eliminate whatever the threat is or consume until they've had its fill. 

And it is never satisfied. Thankfully at least, their appetite only increases with the number of them...so long as she keeps their numbers under control, it shouldn't be much an issue.

[b]Bio:[/b]
Born to a military family on earth, Deseri has a fairly normal life growing up. Both of her parents were military, her dad a Marine soldier and her mom was an engineer that took care of the military's toys and helped in the R&D department. Needless to say, Deseri decided to try following in their steps. She took to her dad's somewhat strict training regime eagerly, as well as academics at school and made a point to excel in both. It quickly became apparent that she had a particular talent for robotics and mechanical engineering, just as her mother did.

She breezed through school, and when she was 18 she joined up with the military and quickly became distinguished as one of the brightest and youngest they had in the academy. When in boot camp she spent her free time modifying weapons, designing new things, and generally tinkering with military hardware, much to the chagrin of her superiors, but for the most part she wasn't reprimanded for it as she [i]mostly[/i] put everything back the way it was.

Most of boot camp went by quickly, and she graduated with flying colors, which is when her career finally started taking off. With things as peaceful as they were in the universe though, she didn't get to see much in the way of real action. Most of her time was spent tinkering with military hardware, fixing and repairing things and making things stayed in top shape. Occasionally, they had to deal with some rebels, terrorists, or extremists but for the most part most of her days were spent without incident.

When she turned 20 though, she was noticed by the military's R&D department, the same division as her mom worked in. She had pulled a few strings to let Deseri into the department, which she quickly distinguished herself practically as a savant in the bio-engineering, mechanical, and cybernetic fields. Particularly so when she lost her lower left arm in an accident involving a laser-cutter, a high powered telescope, and some strong ahesive. (Don't ask). Instead of making do with a simple prosthetic, she made her own. A state of the art thing she called the 'Hephaestus Tool', which she continued to refine and improve upon through the years.

Peace doesn't always last though, and a few years passed when they got word of some Arraxi terrorists planing a bio-attack on some important diplomats, based in a small city on earth. So of course, the military was bough in and so was some of the R&D department to see what exactly they were dealing with.

Well, it went horribly wrong.

Turns out it had been a trap by someone she's still unsure about. Not that it matters now - anyone in the complex that wasn't part of her unit had been consumed. Her and her unit were ambushed, drugged, and were planned to be as used the bio weapons themselves using an experimental nanite-based bio weapon. Deseri was the first and only subject. The people had...overestimated the swarms obedience and the ability to be contained.

As soon as they put the things in her, they immediately started turning her into her now mostly machine state integrating her nerves, limbs, and other biological functions into their system. For a time, Deseri and the swarm were docile, while they further augmented her. Cut off her other limbs, replacing them with artificial ones, and giving the swarm the material it needed to work on any other delicate internal changes to her body.

At least, until the swarm deemed that the scientists should die.

Assuming control of Deseri, the swarm completely annihilated the extremists, devouring them within seconds. Soon, the phage spread to the outside and started devouring the civilians as well. Deseri managed to at least, get the other soldiers that were with her out but the aftermath was...not pretty. After managing to return to the base she and the team were held for questioning, and the Arraxi government were understandably wanting answers and justice. Deseri herself was kept confined in solitary in a facility where bio-hazardous materials were kept. After weeks and months of political back and forth, talks, bogus trials, false accusations, and politicians wanting to sweep this under the rug, they reached a verdict.

The Arraxi were not happy. The Queens saw her nothing more as a weapon now - nothing more than a hunk of metal and would have treated her as such. However, after outcries from Deseri's old squad mates who she saved during the incident, her dad and mom pulling some strings they managed to avoid a death sentence for being a 'bio-hazard' - though what she got wasn't much better. A specially designed cell aboard the Alcatraz.

Air-tight, small, with specially designed emitters in the room that produce a low-level electrical field that disrupts the swarms higher thought processes. The door to the cell is a heavy duty double security door that can forcibly close and trap whatever is locked in there in.
