ThylaTank

Ariana "Thylatank" O'brien is a major character in the Bverse and a member of the B-lliance.
==Background==
=== Early life ===
Thyla was born to a family of Natchers, under the name "Ariana O'brien". She also had 2 younger siblings.
The other members of the O’Brien family were very cruel and abusive towards Thyla. They would yell at and nitpick her for seemingly no reason whatsoever. Should a conflict arise with Thyla and one or more of her siblings, the parents would often only punish Thyla, letting her siblings get off scot-free.
This of course affected Thyla, as she ended up becoming just as, if not more irritable, sensitive, and spiteful than her other family members. Her hurt built up so much that one day, she couldn’t take it anymore, ran to the nearest cliff, and jumped off of it in hopes that it will end her suffering.
=== Attempted suicide, and becoming Thylatank ===
A few weeks past her 15th birthday, Thyla has had enough. Believing her family has broken her beyond repair, she ran several miles away from her home, approached the nearest cliff, and jumped off the edge, hoping her misery would end once and for all.
Meanwhile, two brothers were Lividating, using a vial of Thylacine DNA and KV-2 metal as ingredients. Thyla was unaware of her heading straight for the two brothers, and ends up landing in the concoction they're preparing. She survives, and ends up emerging as her current form.
This takes the brothers by surprise, and they run away from her. Thyla, bewildered by her new look, runs even deeper into the forest to hide. She eventually reaches an abandoned building on Crap Close Drive, where she resides to this very day.
=== Joining the B-lliance ===
While Thyla was renovating her house, a teenage British boy named Jamie approaches said house out of curiosity. Thyla takes notice Jamie, and immediately starts snarling at him. Upon realizing he's friendly, she calms down. Thyla later befriends Jamie and his friends, and joins the B-lliance. Meanwhile, a CSP member notices Thyla and, believing she's an illegal species, calls other people to capture her. After a long fought battle, The B-lliance remains the victor, and Thyla remains free from the CSP's grasp.
==Appearance==
Thyla is a combination of a thylacine and a tank. She has mostly green fur(the fur is especially noticeable on her forehead, cheeks, and chest), white belly fur, and grey stripes along her back and tail, with the gears in her tracks also being grey. She has big ears, sharp claws, two potruding teeth, a short turret(her nose), and a whip-like tail. Despite having half of her DNA derived from a marsupial, she does not have a visible pouch.
==Personality==
Thyla has shown herself to be rude to others, can be egotistical, and often pulls tricks on her friends for a cheap laugh. She usually isn't deliberately mean-spirited, and only tricks her friends when she knows it won't harm them later.
Being raised in an abusive environment, Thyla's grown to be emotionally vulnerable, and struggles with confrontation and criticism. This tendency makes communicating with her difficult, and she'll often distance herself from her friends until she calms down.
Despite all of this, Thyla can be playful and mellow when the chips are down. She'll also show affection to her friends(usually in the form of licking them or sleeping on their lap) at times.
Having thylacine DNA mixed into her, she also has animalistic tendencies that range from alright(whining/growling/howling/etc), to mildly troublesome(scratching things/shedding/etc) to outright disgusting(drinking out of the toilet/licking herself/etc).

==Trivia==
*Thyla is part of the LGBTQA+ community. She's asexual.

*Bverse Thyla's real name, Ariana O'brein, is partially based off the real Thyla's name("Ariana" is real, and "O'brein" is made up, for obvious reasons).
