Machuit

== Profile ==
"Unlike my boss, this isn't personal. I mean, I'm still killing you, but it's for business reasons..."- Machuit, before dropping some unlucky sap into the Midnight Sea
Machuit, or Mack The Scapel, is basically a semi-treacherous lieutenant the King seemingly dug out of the earth.
She doesn’t actively try to betray him mind you, she simply knows he’s 
dumb enough that he’ll eventually fail hard enough to destroy himself, 
and she can take over in the ensuing vacuum. But for now, she plays the long game...
== Abilities ==
She has claws that can cut anything solid and her deadly scalpel that can cut almost anything un-solid. But that's not her most obnoxious power.
It’s unknown to most, but her form is mostly seemingly made from her own
 internal shine, almost like a hologram, with her many seeming “deaths” 
simply her retracting it inward and laying dormant temporarily.
== Characterization ==
Ambitious, but ruthless, with a lack of empathy for others she uses in her business to an unsettling degree, though whether this is inherent or due to life experiences hardening her, few can say.
But, out of her sheer pragmatism and ambition, she tends to prioritize
 more the welfare of the larger “dominion” rather than the king’s orders
 himself, which infuriates him; but her successes due to such are 
perhaps why he keeps her around...
== Additional Info. ==
It’s rumored she may have gone by the name Itztli and that she may have 
worked with somebody by the nickname “Carnie,” but what that means is 
unknown.
Her characterization is based on Macheath from The Threepenny Opera, an upwardly mobile gangster with aspirations to "greater things." Which, like here, are not at all presented sympathetically, given Mack's original writer was a turbo-commie...
== Author Commentary ==
I wanted to make my own Macheath, and to expand my not-Gems concept! Two for the price of one, woo!
