Francine

**Francine** is a major character in *The Heart Commandos*. She is a western otaku who is obsessed with video games in general, and for being a massive fujoshi talker to her university students, including Kawaii-Kun, who she finds her irritating to listen to. She is a gender-swapped, humanized version of Francis from *Super Paper Mario.*

## Story

Born in Tokyo, Japan in 2002 as the only daughter of an American millionare and a Japanese aristocrat, Francine's family moved to Texas 2 months after her birth, as her father wanted to continue living in his complex house. She is one the first students Talia has ever met alongside Melony and Kawaii-Kun, and Talia already finds her irritating upon speaking with Francine for the first time. The only companion that doesn't find her annoying was Sugar, and even then Francine treates her like an underling.

During Talia's third day at the University, Francine helped fellow student Belle Fontiere to challenge a blue-haired girl named Tari, who is a bit familiar with her before to a speedrunning contest. She lost the match, and Francine lost her mind a bit, promising to Talia and Tari that this isn't over.

During the 99th Nowhere Outhere festival, she is one the partecipants in the Art Contest, which is how she meet Axol, another partecipant who is Melony's boyfriend. Despite Axol's best efforts, Francine won in the end, receiving much honor to her parents and was given the golden trophy. In her apartament, she plans on kidnapping not just Axol, but Talia's boyfriend Kyle as well, so she could film her own 1 hour Yaoi movie only for her, as she owns her personal website called HotBoys.com, which she regularly updates it every week while writing fanfics about it.

With her kidnapping plan succeeded, she is ready to film the whole thing, only for her parents, Talia and Melony to come in and find out about the truth. Due to this, Boss punishes his daughter by confiscating her laptop and golden trophy for 3 weeks and having all the posters of her favorite boy bands ripped as well, basically ruining her dream of a Yaoi movie.

Filled with rage and revenge, Francine decided to contact almost all the villains who had a history with The Heart Commandos, except Magma Dragoon, who is not interested. She proposed them a game of Volleyball, which they laugh at this stupid plan at first, until she offers 10 billion dollars, peaking them their interest. If they won, all of them will share the cash for themselves, unaware that Francine had stoled her parents' money for this offer, which could have bankrupted them to oblivion and have her life uninentionally ruined as a result.

With this offer put in place, Francine formed The Anti-Commandos, consisting of herself (who is the leader), the anti-Talia, D-L-T, the anti-Tecna, The Iron Man, the anti-Tari, Sula, the anti-Melony, Dimitri Rasputin, the anti-Confiance, the Weremole, the anti-Pulcinella, Red, the anti-Loona, and Lord Pelko, the anti-Athena. Sugar was intentionally left out, as Francine doesn't need her anymore.

## Personality

Francine is a typical asocial nerd, who spends most of her life online and playing video games, which was apparently how she discovers the Yaoi fandom in 2013. She is incredibly obnoxious to her classmates, as she talks about her experience with other fujoshis non-stop and just won't shut tup about it either.

## Abilities

Francine does not have superabilities, but what she does have is a green backpack that contains multiple gadgets in her disposal, including a device that temporarily turns her invisible, a green spray that makes her victim fall asleep, and a rechargable battery for her laptop. Additionally, the backpack can shoot a long pink thing resembling a chameleon's tongue to catch items that she can't reach normally.
