Character Bio
Birthplace: Raven's Eye Station; in orbit around Highgate in the Blue Sun system || Allegiance: Independent
Height: 152 centimeters (5' 0") || Weight: 43 kilos (95 lbs) || Age: 28 standard years (Apparent Age: 15 standard years)
I was just a child when the war broke out. On the surface, I still am. That is what they did to me.
The station I grew up on was razed from the black. By all accounts, no one survived. But I survived. And I suspect others did too, though I have never met one. Never met another whose skin was replaced by shaped plates of synthetic polymer, whose bones were invasively reinforced with the same stuff.
I don't know if I've even assessed all they did to me.
I may never know. I was 'programmed' to a certain extent. I could do things I'd never been able to before. But whatever use I was meant to be put to, I was never put to it. I was abandoned dirtside on a little rock in the white system.
