Samantha Hayes

== Background ==
Samantha “the Tinkerer” Hayes was raised in poverty in the slums of Freddit-00555’s Olympus City. Her mother abandoned her at the age of 4, leaving her with her father, David Hayes.
As she grew up, she was fascinated by the technology present within the Securitrons that regularly patrolled her neighborhood.
Her first encounter with the law was just at 9 years old, registered under “unauthorized access to a malfunctioning Securitron”. Her father was also cited for the incident, and jailed for a week.
=== The car crash at 10 ===
At 10 years old, she was the victim of a serious car crash which resulted in her coma. As her brain deteriorated due to her comatose state, her father, David Hayes, grew desperate for a solution to her what was his daughter’s imminent brain death. 
Using his position at the Department of Defense, Hayes managed to hijack a highly secure flight and kidnap Zoo Man, the son of Nham Nham, CEO of T.B.C. in Freddit-00555.
As per his demands, the Council of Olympus allowed Samantha to be operated on the most prestigious T.B.C. hospital, and her brain was interconnected with a highly advanced computer module (a type of advanced PERMAT).
The official story, told by Freddit-00555’s Council of Olympus, stated that the crew aboard David Hayes’s flight attempted to wrestle him for control of the aircraft, resulting in an uncontrolled loss of altitude and subsequent crash. There were no survivors.
Samantha woke up three days after the surgery (i.e., a week after the car crash) and was told by doctors of her condition, along with her father’s fate. A mini Hoopla reactor had been installed where her heart used to be, powering a miniature pump to keep her bood flow and her new computerized brain. 
An unexpected symptom of her many surgeries was noted, where her eyes were now glowing green. According to one of the doctors present at the time who had just begun discussing why her eyes were different, Samantha intervened and jokingly remarked “Well, I’m powered by Hoopla now, aren’t I?”.
The same doctor remarked years later about how it was the first hint as to how perceptive Samantha had become. Samantha would then be released from the hospital the following day.
The next encounter with the law would be a year later, at age 13, when she was apprehended for attempting to steal a Mini-Hoopla reactor from a highly secure facility.
=== Hayes' augmented body and mind ===
When she was found, police remarked in their official report that Samantha was now sporting different cybernetic enhancements constructed by stolen material from an estimated 17 different heists, including a FazDyn cybernetic arm, a quad-core T.B.C. Hoopla energy generator (with one Mini-Hoopla core missing), and her internal organs had almost all been replaced by augmented cybernetic versions, including her spine which was now made of titanium alloys.
The most impressive thing, however, was the upgrade she had made to her brain’s computer part. Now sporting state-of-the-art components and powered by a tri-quad Hoopla reactor, Samantha's brain was advanced beyond normal computers and AI. 
Diagnostics were run on Samantha as she was pacified with anesthesia. These diagnostics remain the first and last surviving reports of the inner workings of her brain and body.
In them, it’s remarked as to how Samantha evolved to store memory in the same way a computer does, making her able to compartmentalize emotions, memories, thoughts and experiences.
What was more remarkable, however, was her intellect. With a processor power above the most advanced computers, Samantha was able to rationalize and process intricate problems with extreme ease. Coupled with her advanced memory banks, the doctors at the time were extremely concerned as to what an advanced engineering brain like hers could do if she had evil intentions.
Their discussion did not last long, however, as Samantha’s safety protocols triggered a fake state of brain death, causing the doctors to revive her. Once woken up, Samantha broke out of the hospital.
=== Becoming the Tinkerer ===
Years later, at age 16, she’s thought to be one of the Multiverse’s sharpest engineering minds. She sports the name The Tinkerer, able to repair or restore almost any piece of technology.
She's also known for repairing the T.B.C. Supercruiser Frontier, thought to have been lost & destroyed beyond repair. She led a team of mercenaries to retrieve it, and spent an extraordinary 15 months repairing the entire thing to working condition.
Once A.N.A.L. heard of this, they sent a team to try and recruit Hayes into A.N.A.L., as well to retrieve the Frontier as it contained vital information to Jeff the Securitron's disappearance. However, Hayes rejected A.N.A.L.'s proposal and sabotaged the Frontier's propulsion engines out of spite.
She then turned the massive Supercruiser into her base of operations. It currently orbits the Gregori planet in the Hastur solar system (Freddit-00555, Noxus Galaxy).
Her personal bodyguard, the Mechagodkiller, created by her, remains the Multiverse’s most advanced cyborg killer of that size, able to adapt and destroy the most powerful beings in Fredditlore.
Her services have been requested many times by extremely wealthy people around the Multiverse, and it’s thought that the killing of the Freddit-00555 Olympus Gods was brought on by the hand of her creation.
Samantha is extremely uncooperative of others and dislikes the A.N.A.L. Council or any authority. She remains a rebel, causing an estimated thousands of incidents throughout the Multiversal Capital in the past year.
 The Tinkerer and her creations remain one of the most dangerous threats to A.N.A.L., responsible for the destruction of hundreds of thousands of Overpowered Creatures in the Curve.
