One can scarce ignore the scars all over her body, and her missing limbs if she opts to take off her overcoat. With it, she seemed strangely tall due to her longer legs hidden under it, with a longer left arm, and a shorter right. The most prominent feature, due to its location on her face, was a large burn, though hidden behind her hair.[/i] [hr][indent][i][h3][color=d8cfbe]𝕊o 𝕆n & 𝕊o 𝔽orth[/color][/h3][/i][/indent][color=d8cfbe]Reputation: [/color] [i]A pleasant person, all smiles and manners. Polite, agreeable but not annoyingly so, or the sort to be eager to please. For most Croanians, there was an odd quirk of her scrunching up her nose at any beastmen around, which tends to be found dead somewhere, mutilated, skinned or otherwise butchered in some sort of capacity, but no one really paid any mind to those; criminals were a dime a dozen and better the beastmen than them after all. Indeed what most would pay attention to most was her dangerous obsession with technology, explosives and black powder. Otherwise, people would pretty much agree she approached things in a very mercenary fashion. A fair exchange of money, for her talents.[/i] [color=d8cfbe]Alignment: [/color] [i]Technologist. She’s one, so logically she was very much in favour of techies.[/i] [color=d8cfbe]Skills: [/color] [i]When it comes to machines, she was horrifically talented in it. Perhaps not in an academic sort of way, she can’t identify which part was which most times, but from sheer instincts and learning. Her first prototypes of using miniaturized servos and pneumatic servos outright tore her limbs apart was an utter failure, yet served as the basis of her current equipment. Also one of the few willing to experiment with explosives, being familiar with its make and usage. Less a skill and more a trait was her instincts and intuition, something she learned to make use of in almost every thing she does.[/i] [color=d8cfbe]Backstory: [/color] [i]A fair lass born in the northern most parts of Young, she lived in a relatively remote town. Her life wasn’t anything out of the ordinary, she ran here and there, played with other children in her neighborhood, climbed the occasional tree and got in trouble as all young children were wont to do. One day however, a person, claiming to be a person of the future, and to give a glimpse of what the future could hold gave a show on the streets. It was of course, all theatrics, and small glimpses of impressive stuff that didn’t have any practical application like a spinning magnet levitating on top of another magnet, but yet, as a young child, she was captivated by it. While her grades weren’t really the best, she kept tinkering in her father’s workshop, until she got it into her head to miniaturize those power armor she heard about. Wouldn’t it be better if it was smaller, and more convenient? And thus, with her first prototype, she succeeded in making a system that worked, but without the foresight to put in a failsafe,, she tore herself apart almost limb from limb due to a malfunction. It did not stop her however. From that failure, she learned how to make a functioning prosthetic to serve as her missing arm. Then from there, working legs. Then mini servos and actuators. Better arm prosthetics that moved its fingers. And so on and so forth. In the town, her inventions weren’t really trusted, for one did not simply forget that she had literally torn herself apart before with one malfunction, and soon she started to take on work elsewhere, both to prove her inventions work, and to work on her inventions. When it came to testing, live tests were often the best after all.[/i] [color=d8cfbe]Miscellaneous: [/color] [i]Anything you want to put in that doesn't fit anywhere else.[/i] [hr][indent][i][h3][color=d8cfbe]𝕋echnology[/color][/h3][/i][/indent] [color=d8cfbe]Equipment: [/color] [i]Pneumatic Aerial Navigation Harness, a design that was wildly unorthodox compared to the rest of the northern regions. It was, for one, not just a harness, but a set of machines connected to her. Main Unit: Includes the compression tanks mounted on her front, and the main engines in the back. The main compression tank is mounted on her chest, with smaller auxilliary compression tanks mounted beneath. All have individual intakes and outtakes to prevent one puncture making all of them useless, as well as having some added advantages like being able to compress air in all of them individually. The tanks also provide a surprising amount of protection from attacks on those parts, considering the strength and thickness of the metal used. It was not desirable to take impacts on the tanks that contains compressed gas, but at least it was not hitting her. Has four variable outtake pipes on it to release compressed gas. Entire left arm: A claw gripped arm, with a heated hand so hot it could ignite clothing spontaneously and start to cook her from its sheer heat if she let it go that high without precautions. Has a grappling hook attachment on the forearm. High strength and durability due to it being mechanical in nature. Right hand Gauntlet: A gauntlet containing twinlinked pneumatic shooters, firing 1cm wide steel balls at surprising speeds and power. Magazines contains 30 steel balls for each side of the barrel, for a total of 60, using a simple spring loaded feeding method. Has a grappling hook attachment under the forearm. Extra magazines are kept on her overcoat. Gloves made from multiple aramid meshes, similar to her overcoat. Braced exoskeleton: In what she would say a spurt of inspiration, and others would call a burst of madness, she grafted metal parts onto some of her bones to support her usage of the harness, making it so both bone and metal would support whatever stress her body is going through. Connects her to the harness, providing her with a significant increase in strength and speed by itself, without the bulk or weight of a power suit, though a power suit usually has more strength and speeds.. Pinned black powder cylinders: A dangerous contraption with which she can summon an explosion at will. The pin needed to be pulled first, and after a 5 second delay, the cylindrical device explodes in a spectacular fireball. Overcoat: A large overcoat she uses to cover her entire body, as well as carry her munitions on her contracts. Features an underslung grenade holder, attachments for more pockets and parts, and a large ring of pockets to house her magazines, attachments, and other tools she might carry. Constructed of multiple overlays of tough aramids meshes crisscrossing, providing a surprising amount of protection and snugness, essential in the cold. [/i] [/hider]
