Kit Bodega is a human with light skin, warm silver eyes, and blue hair framing her face, tied back into a ponytail with a bolt-shaped metal clasp. Her left arm is replaced by a shoulder-mounted ball-joint interface that magnetically and remotely connects to a mostly standard robotic forearm, with no upper arm segment. She wears a white tank top, puffy indigo-blue trousers, and chunky utilitarian boots with dark metal piping at the soles and toes. A black belt with a pouch completes the outfit. --- **Name:** Kit Bodega (formerly "Kit Mineko") **Series:** Original character **Species:** Human **Age:** Young adult **Height:** 5'5" (165 cm) **Build:** Slim, fit, balanced **Personality** Hands-on, pragmatic, restless, sprightly. Kit likes to get her hands dirty, finding practical solutions to problems, and doesn't like idling when she could be doing something productive. She has an overall sweet, playful disposition, but can be susceptible to frustration and impatience. **Important Things** * She runs a little machine shop on the outskirts of town named "Kit's Shop". * She wants to be a hero-for-hire, but she keeps the shop running because it's the only place where she feels completely in control of her life. * She has a sister, Aerix, who is a customs officer in the same town. She's reportedly very uptight and thorough. Kit and Aerix don't get along very well. * She has a "chibified" plush version of herself, "Mini-Kit", which she turned into a robotic assistant. It doesn't talk or do anything especially remarkable, but it's pretty strong for its size… and surprisingly clever. * She likes dressing in different outfits and posting pictures on social media. She also likes to belly-dance for fun — complete with flowing silks! * She's a competent close-quarters brawler, favoring fist-focused combat. When she gets serious, she splits her "ponytail bolt" down the middle, using it as knuckle-dusters. * Regarding her prosthetic arm: * The shoulder unit, elbow joint, and a circular light in her forearm all glow a soft blue when the prosthetic is active. * The shoulder unit can be removed, revealing a metallic disc. * The floating forearm generally moves like a normal arm, but can be charged with immense magnetic energy and launched up to 3 meters before snapping back. Doing so is very focus-intensive. The arm also has an electromagnet function. * She doesn't like people putting their hands between her shoulder unit and forearm.
