Her bright blue eyes often sparkle and shift in color, betraying the existence of ocular implants, and while her hair color often changes on a whim, she can usually be counted on to let it grow long and tie it in a ponytail knot. Her wardrobe tends to be just as eclectic as her hair color, though she gravitates towards form-fitting and functional designs as well as never going without her white medical jacket on the job. She wears a special glove on her left hand to hide the visible components of her augmentations for the sake of looking professional, and most unusually in this day and age she often wears glasses, though hers are designed to interface wireless with nearby systems and devices, most commonly her medical tech. Her shoulders and back contain faint traces of markings from removed tattoos, with the exception of a long string of binary code wrapping around her right arm near the elbow, and she has a scar on the back of her head covered up by her hair.

Ophelia certainly has that last one but the others ran away screaming after spending five minutes with her. Described by her superiors as having "a mind moving so fast that it sometimes outpaces the rest of her", Ophelia is a fast and free spirit, bouncing around and doing things so fast that she sometimes needs to stop to take a break and reorient herself. She's unquestionably skilled as a physician and augment technician however, and her unrelenting barrage of fast paced weird belies a genuine compassion for others, a great lust for life, and a desire to help in any way she can.

Even in a day and age where it’s common to run fast and loose with the law, the sale of any sort of intelligent machine is a legal landmine for even the biggest companies, and the line between selling a helpful program and enslaving a sentient being in the eyes of many is often quite thin. Of course, an AI partner is still an incredibly useful tool, and if you have a fat checkbook and few scruples you can always find a black market for these sort of things. One such program is OPHELOS, the brainchild of a gifted tech-head known only as β€˜Zan’ and one of the most advanced helper AI’s on the market, possessing an impressive intellect as well as a personality matrix that helped with fast decision making and would, if you were found with one, land you in prison before you could say β€œchattel slavery”. One such model was bought and activated through very private channels by an assassin in need of a more reliable hacking program. This program’s first real memory was of her owner, a professional mercenary and international assassin by the name of Kali Mendoza, though she suspects that was not her real name. Raised from birth to be a killer, Kali was a professional to the core and had augmented herself to perform at maximum proficiency, even going so far as to replace parts of her brain with artificial parts of questionable legality. Cold, ruthless, and brutally efficient, Kali showed rarely showed any emotion besides contempt and, occasionally, satisfaction when killing or brutalizing AI or androids that dared to think they were anything more than tools. Suffice it to say, OPHELOUS suffered a lot of abuse at the hands of Kali that her programming forced her to reply to with a friendly apology and had little else to look forward to until the day when the assassin would inevitably sacrifice the poor AI to finish a job and buy another one to repeat the cycle. Kali had enemies, however, and it wasn’t too long before she and OPHELOS were on a job in EuroCorp that went south fast. What should have been an easy hit on an android executive turned into a shootout, and despite some slick moves by Kali and some clever infiltration and hacking by her AI partner, a guard got an extremely lucky shot just as the assassin made her escape. OPHELOS was given one last order to bring her to a local contact with rudimentary surgical skills, and as she made the call, OPHELOS activated some nearby security cameras to get a look at her master’s body, lying limp in a back alley with a bullet planted right between her eyes. Barely alive, Kali was picked up and rushed to the contact's location, who frantically went to work replacing damaged brain tissue with cybernetic attachments despite it being well outside his usual area of expertise. In the desperate whirlwind of action, the feckless surgeon inadvertently connected the interface Kali used to interact with OPHELOS to the neural interface in the assassin’s brain. OPHELOS felt a pang of fear for the first time right before it all went dark and she woke up in a body. Helped to her feet by the man she saw working on Kali, OPHELOS looked at a nearby mirror and saw Kali looking back. In the frantic operation, the contact had, without realizing it, effectively rendered the assassin brain-dead and overwrote what was left of her mind and personality with OPHELOS’ code, effectively implanting the AI into a human body. The sensation of her new human senses all at once was too much for the AI-turned-human to handle and she collapsed in the contact's dingy operating room. Wanting nothing to do with the 'assassin's' apparent mental breakdown, the man dumped her behind a slum in District 14, where she was found by a sympathetic local and dropped off at an actual clinic where she could recover mentally and physically from the ordeal. Feigning amnesia and playing dumb when the doctor's complained about not being able to identify her (Mendoza had made sure she would not be easily traceable), OPHELOS walked out into the world feeling truly free for the first time in her short life and spent almost a whole day just walking around and experiencing life unrestrained by command lines and codes before finding herself in a small coffee shop where she could plan. Enjoying the first coffee she ever had, OPHELOS' thoughts turned to the master whose body she now had and what she would do next. Remembering the abuse she suffered and how cold and heartless Mendoza had been, OPHELOS decided that she wanted to spend this life helping people rather then hurting them like the assassin had, rather spontaneously deciding on something in the medical profession after remembering how nice the staff at the clinic had been. Figuring she would need a new name, she chose to adopt the name that was derived from her old program name; Ophelia. Having access to Kali Mendoza's accounts and contacts as well as her impressive intellect gifted by her programming, Ophelia went to work burying the assassin. Bank accounts were emptied to ensure officials that an unidentifiable body in police custody was in fact an assassin whose last mission had gone wrong, and weapons caches were dismantled and sold to pay for a string of seemingly unrelated cosmetic surgeries and augmentation tune-ups. Black Hat hackers and infiltrators were freed from their debts to craft a carefully designed backstory of a gifted but eccentric young woman fresh out of a Korporat medical school, along with the ID and credentials to back it up. Thus the internet lit up with the news that an infamous android killer had bit the big one, and EuroMed happily thought of the profit that would come from hiring this talented medical student named Ophelia Hayes onto their staff.

Made to seamlessly link with her other cybernetics, the mesh intelligently reacts to physical stimulus, reinforcing joints and vulnerable areas on impact and providing additional power to muscle movements during periods of high use. In short, the weave enhances her physical abilities and endurance in an unobtrusive way. Ophelia suspects that the weave is an experimental black market design, as she has found next to no information on its origins.[/i][/color][/indent] [color=5F9EA0]Β»[/color] [color=silver]Datatech-Integrated Arm, Caduceus Model[/color] [indent][color=silver][i]Replacing her left arm up to the elbow, Ophelia's cybernetic limb is made primarily with a carbon-steel polymer and includes a built-in interface augment to interact with computer systems nearby, accessible via a datapad built into the forearm or a HUD projection by her glasses. The Caduceus Model is a popular variant for those in the medical profession, containing helpful programs as well as collapsible surgical and cybernetic repair tools in the fingertips and integrated gyroscopic sensors embedded in the wrists on both hands to ensure a steady grip. This arm replaced an older model with tools intended for assassins and mercenaries that Ophelia had little use for.[/i][/color][/indent] [color=5F9EA0]Β»[/color] [color=silver]Neural Core[/color] [indent][color=silver][i]Effectively a byzantine network of neural implants and augments plugged into her physical brain. While functionally and structurally comparable to an average human brain in physical function, Ophelia has the thought processing of an artificially created intelligence. While the experience and stimulus that comes with being human has slowed this down somewhat, she still has an impressive intellect and can think and react faster then most humans, especially when interacting with computer tech. Ophelia deduced that the bits of the Neural Core that didn't come from OPHELOS were also black market finds for similar reasons to the weave.[/i][/color][/indent] [color=5F9EA0]Β»[/color] [color=silver]CyberLens, Korporat Model[/color] [indent][color=silver][i]Ocular implants replacing the lenses in her eye and feeding into her ocular nerves.
