She doesn't actually carry a staff around but she does dress in loose, short dresses like this. She's not fond of wearing any lengthy dresses as she felt they impede her movement and she doesn't like wearing shorts either.
 
[b]Alignment | [/b]Radical

[b]Personality/Habits | [/b]
Being a machine radicalist, she believes that the more machinery helps mankind, the more everyone will prosper and lead happy lives. Her goal in life is to usher in that machine civilization era, no matter what stands in the way, be it tradition, religion, or just a bunch of nature spirit-worshiping hippies.

In that aspect, you can say she is being overly arrogant and ambitious. However, unlike the kind of arrogance your typical nobles show to the commoners, she would be willing to befriend anyone happily. As long as you don't insult her beliefs, that is.

Other than that, she's a cheerful, somewhat tomboyish girl.

She has a bad habit of carelessly moving around with her short dress, resulting in her flashing her panties to the world. Corona often scolds her about this matter.

[b]Background | [/b]
She was born in the slums of the capital. Ever since she was little, she had to live a harsh and unforgiving life. Her father left her mother once he impregnated her, and her mother soon left her as well due to her illness. So many days she had to starve, surviving by eating garbage put out by the more well-off. She even became a pickpocket and a thief once like many of her peers, but after a terrible admonishment by her then bedridden mother, where she refused to even touch all the food she had brought her thanks to them being earned from an immoral source, she never repeated it ever again.

She had to survive several more years in the slums on her own. And in those years, she picked up her skill as a mechanic, which she just had a natural knack with. It helped her a lot through those years, with her tinkering at trinkets and machines, fixing them for a price or refurbishing them to be sold.

And then, one day, she had her fated meeting with Corona. She learned about the Academy from her and she decided that she wanted to study there as well. The two then traveled together, and they were eventually accepted together through the same scholarship process. She soon realized how useful machines could be for society from her studies.

[i]If we could mass produce them, no one would ever have to go hungry again![/i]

The more she studied, the more she became obsessed with machinery. Her skill as a mechanic grew leaps and bounds. And she remained as close as ever with Corona, who she admired for daring to surpass her human limits through her brain transformation. Corona didn't really share her drive to revolutionize society with machines, but she shared her belief in progress, and how humanity should transcend nature instead of becoming part of it.

These days, the two always worked together in their projects.

She only possesses one single core summon which she christened as "The Castle".

Its size had grew over the years she studied in the Academy. At first, it was the size of her palm, merely a machine fish with legs. Now, it was big enough that she could take a ride on top of it without it falling over.

It grew due to her attaching and replacing its components over and over as her understanding of machinery increased, improving it by leaps and bounds, adding more and more add-ons to it. The connection between them certainly helped, as with it, she could shape the castle to fit the blueprints she had imagined. It was a feat only possible because of her deeply intimate knowledge of every single nook and corner of her summon.

The Castle now possessed cannons that it could fire at will, with an automated reload system at place. The fish mouth could open and release miniature automated planes that would attack the enemy with miniature machine guns and bombs. The mouth could also breathe fire and bite its opponent if necessary, though naturally, while doing so, it wouldn't be able to launch any planes. It could even retract its spider legs and fly itself with rockets for a short period of time.

Its most amazing ability however was the one not related to combat at all. It was the ability of processing raw materials into processed ones. It could handle all sorts of metals, wood, minerals, and even gems. Naturally, she abused this to create the parts she needed. She even used it to produce tools to be sold to other people, so that she could get extra money.

The Castle possessed a rudimentary AI. She didn't know how it came to be however, as the Castle just suddenly started talking all of a sudden one day. It could barely think on its own, but it clearly wished to be useful to its master. She had to continue ordering it around, especially in combat. At least it could distinguish between the various kinds of raw materials, took them into its body on its own using its many crane arms and process them on its own.
