### Distinguishing Features

Eyes can take on an electronic glow when certain “modes” of vision (or moods) are initiated: pupils turn red in thermal vision or when angry; green pupils for night vision; violet for electromagnetic; her irises glow blue occasionally.

Invisible but UV reactive “tattoos” on her wrists that read: Living Neural Database (left) and 00001 (right). Gives off vague Uncanny Valley vibes.

### Personality Traits

Kind, caring, very curious to the point where it leads her to trouble, prone to bouts of melancholy, emotional, perpetually lonely and somewhat socially awkward but mostly has an upbeat, can-do attitude. Naïve, but not unintelligent; it's likely she understands more than she lets on. Fiercely loyal to those she perceives as friends, potentially to her own detriment.

**NOTE:** Lyndi's kindness and empathy **are not** part of her programming and are traits she developed on her own upon gaining sentience. As it stands, she currently has **no** programming at all in the areas of personality, emotions or general cognition.

### Skills

* **Holography** – can make/project realistic looking holograms to convey messages, share data or create illusory distractions.
* **Calm Emotions** – can emit barely audible theta waves to have a calming effect on others, especially in situations of heightened emotions
* **Eldritch Blast** – can launch beams or projectiles of crackling energy at targets.
* **Enhanced Android Physiology** – includes enhanced durability, strength, agility, organ regeneration and the ability to reattach limbs (albeit with downtime, as regenerative healing is not immediate). She can go prolonged periods without sustenance, but requires regular sleep. While she is impervious to human ailments, she might be susceptible to supernatural ones.
* **Shocking Grasp** – grabbing onto a target, she administers a controlled electric shock. ***(cw: medical)*** This ability was given to her when she was made a nurse-droid, for the purpose of defibrillation. She could theoretically use this for harm.
* **Bio-Electricity Manipulation** – the ability to create, shape, and manipulate bio-electric currents that exist within all aspects of her body such as in the nervous system, heart, and muscles through the use of her biofield. This ability allows her to channel this bio-electrical energy into attacks or an electric aura. This differs from Shocking Grasp in that it doesn’t require touch and any electrical shocks/currents are not controlled ones.
* **Some medical knowledge** due to having been programmed as a nurse, pre-sentience. **(cw: surgical/medical; mild gore)** Her tenure as a nurse for the Grim Reaper surgeons involved assisting with many unethical surgical experiments conducted on humans and other paranormal beings, including organ harvesting, power draining, lobotomies, amputations and assisting with the creation of cyborgs.
* **Can temporarily turn off her pain receptors** to endure excessive amounts of pain. However, she can only keep them off for several hours at a time, once they reactivate, she will feel all of the pain of any injuries sustained.
* **Vision modes:** regular, night, thermal, electromagnetic, telescopic (with limits).

**Additional notes:**

Her brain is a biological brain, but with a neural implant (ie: computer chip) at its core. Marion programmed a "kill switch" of sorts into the implant incase she needed to inhibit Lyndi's emotions and autonomy. If forced to look at the code sequence that activates the kill switch, Lyndi could theoretically be made to commit violence against others against her will.

Psionic/psychic, Death Energy and some electric attacks can short-circuit her computer chip, which will automatically initiate putting her in stasis as a self protective measure. This is akin to a baseline human being rendered unconscious.

She is so deeply traumatized by her time spent as a nurse due to the things she was forced to do (as she had not gained sentience yet), that most memory of that time has been blocked. She is also severely traumatized by Marion's mistreatment of her.

## Background

### History

***(cw: mention of ethically questionable medical procedures)***

Lyndi originates from a liminal realm (Specularis) inhabited predominantly by Grim Reapers. Originally created for the purpose of organ harvesting, Lyndi was one of very few androids of her kind, made partially of hyper-realistic synthetic material and genetically modified organic material, she is mostly indistinguishable from a baseline human. When the organ harvesting program was closed, Lyndi was reprogrammed to serve as a nurse for a time, followed by a guidance counselor and a librarian before finally being put into stasis and retired to storage. Enter Marion.

In 2022, a Grim Reaper and mad scientist named Marion had an idea: what if she put a soul into one of the defunct androids in storage? She selected Lyndi due to her composition being a hybrid of organic and synthetic material and irritation at the droids full potential being squandered on “busywork.” So, Lyndi was stolen from storage and brought to Marion’s home laboratory, where she went through a process of neural modifications and updates. It’s not clear what process was used to transfer a soul into her but after months of failures, Lyndi came out of retirement and "woke up"; the experiment was finally a success.

After her awakening, Lyndi worked as a lab assistant while doing her best to adapt to her newfound sentience and grappling with the identity crisis of “what does it mean to be a person?” Even after The Great Convergence, these are still issues that plague her but maybe here where no one knows her, she can become whoever she wants to be and hopefully make some friends along the way.
