## Biography

### Birth

Neither one of Rey’s parents showed any sign that they had inherited Thanos’s unfortunate genes. They had a peaceful marriage and wanted to start a family YouTube channel with their child to hopefully gain some fame. However, when they decided to do DNA testing before Rey was born, they found that she would have purple skin. Disgusted at the possibility of having to deal with such a strange child, both parents decided to abort it. However, abortions were illegal where they lived and nobody would perform one for Rey’s mother. Rey was born in a hospital and both parents refused to even look at her. The moment Rey was taken away, the couple adopted another baby who was Rey’s age: a blond-haired, blue-eyed girl with light skin. They gave the adopted girl the name “Strelitzia” after their favorite flower but refused to name their actual child. So the hospital staff named Rey “Strelitzia” as well so they could put her in the records. Rey’s parents left with their new child, and Rey was put into an orphanage.

### Early Life

Rey’s time at the orphanage was a sad one. The overworked staff deliberately avoided her because she would cling to them when they came near. She got attached very quickly, desperately searching for parental figures, and she didn’t want her caretakers to leave her like her parents did. The other children could tell that something was wrong with her as well. Many of them, though they had no parents, could name people who had been killed by Thanos. Since the staff couldn’t be bothered to give Rey toys to play with, she spent the majority of her time in front of the TV. She preferred news channels, because they frequently talked about Aster Institute- an organization devoted to saving people from calamities. Rey started to develop fantasies of being saved from the disaster of the orphanage, and those fantasies would persist for years.

### Work

Somehow, word got out that Thanos’s granddaughter lived at the orphanage with innocent kids. People started to fear for the other orphans, because Rey’s behavior was withdrawn and reclusive. This led them to believe that she might be planning something evil, so the orphanage finally kicked her out and gave her work at a recycling facility near the landfill. The landfill itself stretched for miles, which intensified Rey’s desire to go to Krakoa. Where Rey lived, housing was very expensive and the government was scrambling for ways to make cheap homes to get the homeless off the streets. Their solution was to make bricks out of recycled trash- compressing metal and plastic into blocks that could be made into small houses. Rey’s job was to make these bricks. Her work consisted of gathering plastic items out of the landfill and cleaning them so they could be compressed. It was hard, dirty work and many of the people who did this job were criminals who’d been convicted of minor offenses such as possession of drugs and theft, so Rey was an outcast among her fellow workers for many reasons. The recycling facility wasn’t obligated to pay their workers, so the supervisors rewarded them once per day, every night. The workers had three choices of reward: A meal and a bottle of clean water, a bath, or 30 minutes on a computer to surf the Internet. Rey frequently chose the computer so that she could try and inform the Asters of her problems. Though she was a huge fan of them and liked to make drawings of them in school, she found no way to contact them. She started trying alternate ways to make contact, such as praying for an opportunity to meet them and searching the internet to find their contacts every night. But her searches were always unsuccessful- after months of searching she still couldn’t find any way to contact the asters. So she started to skip dinner for computer time to try to get famous on social media. Her logic was that if she was famous enough, the asters would be more likely to notice her. Maybe an aster would even follow her on social media, where she could ask to go to Krakoa! She started a fan account, where she made aster fanart to get followers.

### School

When Rey started school, she quickly learned more about Aster Institute in history class- which was her favorite subject at the time. She learned that the Asters lived on an island called Krakoa, which was a paradise that had many beautiful flowers and fruit. This attracted Rey because she liked to pick flowers whenever she could. Her fantasies of being rescued evolved- she wanted to actually become an Aster so that she could live on the beautiful island. She started to pretend to be an Aster, even though she had no interest in actually rescuing others. Rey was also an outcast at school, but people dismissed her struggles because Thanos was responsible for the murders of many of her classmates’ family members. She was a convenient object for people to project their hatred of Thanos on, and her bullies felt that they were justified in physically harming her every day. Even teachers whose lives had been affected by Thanos had no problem treating her unfairly. She was disciplined harshly for things that other kids got away with on the daily- people noticed her mistakes more than those of her peers. Teachers would search her daily to make sure she didn’t have weapons on her. Whatever she said to defend herself was interpreted as a threat of violence. Though Rey did well in school (to impress Aster Institute in the future) and seldom caused trouble when she was left alone, she unnerved teachers because she came to school in dirty, smelly clothes and had a quiet demeanor. Rey’s social media obsession continued in school, where she started going off task to make more accounts so she could follow herself and comment on her own posts. She was nearly starving from choosing computer time as her reward every day, but she still jumped at every opportunity to get more time on social media. She imitated many different writing styles when she commented on her own posts, which made her very proficient in language arts. However, the teachers at school didn’t recognize this and accused her of plagiarism whenever she wrote something that seemed too complicated for her age.

### Expulsion

Even though Rey’s teachers and fellow students were of no help to her, she still saw school as her only escape. She had access to decent computers and textbooks, although unlike the other students, she wasn’t allowed to take them outside of school. But she still saw doing well in school as a way out, especially because asters valued good grades. She was determined to not give the school an excuse to get rid of her. It was a sunny day. Rey had just been caught trying to sneak a laptop into an assembly, which was something that she’d seen others doing without getting punished and decided to try out of desperation. The teacher, after having confiscated the laptop, was in a very bad mood and made Rey sit next to her in case she caused any more trouble. The first half of the assembly passed without complaint. Then, suddenly, Rey experienced a mental breakdown. She would later describe it as feeling as if she was about to die. Even though she was afraid of dogs, the fear she felt was like nothing else in severity. She couldn’t stop herself from screaming, or from clinging onto the teacher in a desperate bid for comfort. The disgusted teacher pulled Rey off and immediately called law enforcement. Even though the breakdown eventually passed and Rey calmed down and returned to normal, the damage was done and Rey was expelled for assault and had to stay in a detention facility for a while.

### Terrigen Trace

Rey left the facility when she met Ben and his niece Aqua, who felt sorry for her and took her in for a while. However, her desire to be an Aster got the better of her and she secretly took their copy of the Terrigen Trace program and viewed it, intending to return it later. Her plans were ruined when outriders descended upon the planet to claim the program as tribute. Rey, deciding that she would rather not give the program to the outriders, destroyed it. However, Thane of Titan used psychic dissection on her to recover it from her memories. This was very painful for Rey, who passed out when Thane was done. She also recieved a wound on her stomach after he cut her with Sunrise Crisis in partial deployment. Rey was left with a strong hatred for Thane.

### Before Decimation of Earth

The Q-ship Rey was in was eventually taken to SARS Starhammer Base. Rey herself was confined in a cell, occasionally being visited by Aqua.

### After Decimation of Earth

Although SARS conducted a trial to prove Rey's guilt, she was unable to declare herself innocent or guilty because she was beat up by Ben and Aqua.

## Personality

Rey is a quiet, reclusive person, due to living most of her life alone and without friends. Early on in life, she adopted the Asters she saw on the news as her parental figures. As they were her biggest role models throughout her life, she idolized them and was fanatic in her adoration of them, even going so far as to eat newspaper and magazine pages that had Asters on them in the hopes of becoming one herself. From a young age, she aspired to become an Aster and do good throughout the world. However, this aspiration was not genuine, as Rey wanted to be an Aster not to do good, but to be loved by everyone and live on an island with flowers and fruit. Despite the positive influence, Rey has trouble controlling her desire to act selfishly, and thinks of morality mostly in terms of what acts she is punished for and what she is not. For example, Rey hates Thane not because he does bad things, but because he hurt her and he does things that Rey knows that she would be punished for if she did the same- except he's powerful enough to get away with it. It's difficult for Rey to feel sympathy when there's nothing in it for her. However, she is very aware of this and hates herself for it, to the point of thinking about hanging herself because she believes that truly good people would kill themselves out of guilt if they did the same thing she did. Although she often has suicidal thoughts, she has little motivation to go through with it because she fears pain most of all. She has the tendency to become very self-destructive when she has nothing to do, which is why she will try to distract herself by cleaning objects around her. She also has an extreme hatred for her body as a result of how she was punished for having similarities to Thanos. She sees it as something separate from her, often accusing it of not doing what she wants and belonging to Thane and Thanos. She sometimes attempts to hurt her body out of anger, but will not do anything extreme because of her fear of pain. This is the main reason why she enjoyed her time in an I.S. so much- she felt that she could be free from her body. While riding an I.S., Rey's personality undergoes a complete shift. She becomes cheerful, polite, and willing to try anything. However, when told that she would not be piloting the I.S. anymore, she quickly became angry and jealous, wishing death on the new pilot before deciding that she didn't deserve an I.S. after all. Rey is extremely prone to jealousy, often attributing the achievements of others to simply "being white."

## Abilities

### Cleaning

Rey is very skilled at all things related to cleaning and sanitation, due to it being her job since she was very young. She can identify many cleaning products just from their smell, and can clean very efficiently- once clearing an entire room in ten minutes with nothing but a dirty cloth.

### Basic Internal Adjustment

Rey has a full range of movement and is fully abled.

### Being Depressed

Long periods of inactivity can cause Rey to develop very self-destructive habits and retreat into her own thoughts. Her guilt over her role in Earth's destruction and the cancer on her stomach has worsened this. Rey has harbored suicidal thoughts in the past because of her extreme self-hatred.

### Unintentional External Adjustment

Rey has demonstrated an ability to transition her grandfather's lunablade into First Shift and Second Shift. The lunablade went into Fracture Mode when she first held it.

### I.S. Test Pilot

Rey, can perform basic maneuvers with an I.S., such as movement and flight. She can also fire the gauntlets. Unlike more experienced pilots like Thane, Ben, and Prestige, Rey is below average in terms of skill level. However, like most pilots, she enjoys riding an I.S. So far, she has not demonstrated the ability to use the new I.S.'s invisibility field or Injecto-Spear.

## Appearance

Rey is a notably underweight girl who looks younger than she actually is. She has light blue hair with bangs that nearly reach her eyes. She has heterochromia, with one eye being red and one eye being blue. She has inherited her grandfather's Deviant genes, giving her purple splotches all over her body. Aside from those spots, her skin is a tan color that she lightens with makeup. Her civilian outfit is a blue and yellow sailor uniform. As an I.S. pilot, she wears a clear shieldsuit over her clothes. She has a large tumor on the side of her stomach.
