Pandora Day

**Pandora Day** (Growlithe) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. She is a member of the Foresters and the head of weapon development. She works closely alongside fellow inventor, Tank.

## Personality

Pandora is an intelligent young girl with a passion for science and inventions. Taking after the legacy of her grandfather, she wants to craft her own destiny in the world.

Pandora behaves like a supervillain, proclaiming she will become the overlord of Virdis one day to start her own evil empire and offering positions to her friends/minions so that they can serve her. She breaks out into monologues at the drop of a hat, performs fits of evil laughter, and constantly thinks of bizarre and unique instruments of evil on a daily basis.

Despite her evil characteristics, Pandora is relatively harmless, if not super friendly. She cares deeply for the wellbeing of her friends and will do just about anything for them, whether make something at their request or take revenge against those who wronged them. This marks one of Pandora’s often overlooked traits: her loyalty. Evil or not, she looks out for her “minions” and makes sure they are treated with the utmost respect.

Pandora has surprisingly low self-esteem when it comes her notoriety. One of the main reasons she took on her villainous traits is because she felt insignificant and small growing up. The legacy of her grandfather made her a target for lecherous, greedy suitors who only valued Pandora’s looks, not her intelligence.

Pandora has a major crush on Eadwulf and will go out of her way to impress him.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** Pandora was trained by the Foresters and passed the entrance exam to become one. However, she prefers to stay off the field and work behind the scenes as the inventor.

**Genius-Level Intellect-** Pandora is the smartest member of the Foresters and acts as the head of inventing. She is skilled in engineering, capable of making complex gadgets for her team and for herself.

## Trivia

* "Pandora" means "all gifts". She is named after Pandora of Greek Mythology, who was given a jar by Zeus that contained all the worlds evils and troubles. She was told not to open, but did so out of curiosity.
* Pandora references her grandfather, whose surname is "MacGyver". This is in reference to the 1985 TV series, MacGyver, starring title character, Angus MacGyver. MacGyver had a genius-level intellect and superb engineering skills, among other talents. Pandora kept her true surname "Day" to honor her deceased father.
	+ "Day" could be in reference to Pandora's sunshine personality on top of her dominate "evil" personality.

* In the spin-off series, Ultimate Arena, Pandora is one of the hosts alongside Lenny Brimstar, a bartender from The Secret of the Idol.
