Character Information

Summary

Her overfamiliarity with technical jargon and inexperience with people sometimes rubs them the wrong way, often leading to altercations in which she either tries to physically escape or simply phases out into her data jack to fly unfettered through the skies while her aggressor exhausts themselves with expletives.

Her tattoos extend all the way up her arms and reflect the miniature profiles of every kind of bird she has seen, biological or mechanical.

"They tell you not to aim too high, to keep your nose down, and don't draw attention. But what they don't say is that an eternity without the sky is an eternity in hell, and what they don't know? Is that' Icarus Laughed as He Fell.'"

"The other girls, they learned to smile and learned to dance. But I? I learned to cast my soul in steel, and on the rotary arms of Bumblebees I took to the sky and flew, where others fell to new lows and burned. Oh, how those fires were beautiful from overhead."


Goals

Eventually, she would like to live out of a lighter-than-air Luftshiffbau Personal Zeppelin, a central headquarters for all her toys and workshops. As an elf, she's not sure how long she will live, and she hopes to be among the first to explore deep space and new planets - if she lives to see the age of space expansionism.

Background

Pretty but wire-thin, shy, and socially inept, this elf was born in Tír na nÓg to human parents who absolutely did not want the attention that came with raising an elf. She was left at an orphanage, and while she was raised with care, the lack of individual attention, which only compounded when she failed to Awaken to magic, caused her to retreat into the world of technology.

She attended a technical school for Mechanical Repair in Seattle, paying for it by working at sleazy bars and strip clubs. Sadly, she learned absolutely nothing as a waitress save for how much she absolutely despised other people, falling deeper into her own world of metal and electronics.

Following her graduation, she worked as a mechanic as a subcontractor to a subcontractor of Knight Errant for over a decade, spending every credit she made on equipment and training directly. She was desperate never to have to go back to the bars in which she had originally got her start. The last contract was not renewed effective several months ago, and she desperately turned to shadow running to keep the lights on and hold the repo man at bay.

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

Gearhead - When I'm jumped in, the wings are more real, more me than any part of my forsaken flesh, biologically condemned to crawl in the dirt.

Steely Eyed Wheelman - "Like a leaf on the wind, motherfragger."

Subtle Pilot - Her fly spies don't soar unnaturally, her Festo Pigeons soar like actual birds, and everything in the air moves like it belongs there, like it was born to the sky. Technical School Education - She wasn't an A student, but C's get degrees and a degree was got.

Negative

Distinctive Style - Sleeve Tattoos of birds; Van always has images of birds airbrushed or applied via Electrochromatic Coating.

Impassive - She couldn't possibly care less about anything that doesn't further her goals or hobbies.

Creature of Comfort (Middle) - Between her equipment and her absolute refusal to touch grass, a fear of loosing what little she has constantly eats at her.

Appearance

Overly thin and tattooed, she could be said to be pretty - if you can get past the stooped posture, the dismissive way she looks at you, and her tendency to babble on about some bit of techy trivia. She bores quickly with small talk and often seems overly abrupt, bypassing standard greetings or reply to talk about the business at hand, and then wandering off the moment the conversation seems concluded.

Clothing

Armor Jacket - Electrochromic. Birds fly across the sleaves.
