## Siobhan

### Relatives

Seamus (brother), Mrs. McKenna (Mother), Mr. McKenna (Father), Aidan (brother), Quinn (brother)

## Personality and Appearance

Siobhan has straight red hair and freckles, like her fellow change maker, Max Einstein but with curly hair. She views the earth as a patient whose maladies can be diagnosed through scientific examination, and, eventually, cured. She hopes, one day, to be able to predict major events such as earthquakes, hurricanes, and floods. She is one of Max's closest friends in the CMI.

Her temper is as fiery as her hair. She is short-tempered but good hearted. She called Klaus an eejit (idiot) for ordering cheap solar panels that wouldn't help the people of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). She also snores when she is sleeping. She thinks that the people that the CMI is helping definitely deserve the best. Siobhan also has high expectations for her teammates and always helps them brainstorm ideas to solve the CMI's missions. She is very competitive, but she cares deeply about her family and her friends. She is always very focused on the task at hand, and nothing can draw her away. She is also very supportive and fiercely loyal to her friends and will do anything to protect them.

### Early Life

Siobhan's family consists of Seamus, her younger brother, Aiden, her older brother, Quinn, another brother, and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. McKenna. Max describes them as the big family that she always wished she had. They live outside of the town of Ballymahon, in the Irish midlands. Their neighbors are the Dowdalls, the Morton girls, the Rourkes, the Bannons, and the Muldoons. Stomach cramps are a common ailment among their neighbors and themselves. Siobhan's younger brother was sick in bed. It is unknown what he is suffering from. The McKennas were potato farmers. They live near their barn yard and get their water from wells. Including Siobhan, they have 10 members of the family; 2 adults and 8 children (4 girls and 4 boys). Siobhan's father is a hearty person, he jokes that Max and Tisa had brains even bigger than Siobhan's. Siobhan's mother introduced Klaus to Winston's Irish Style Bangers (type of sausage).

### Meeting the CMI

Although it is unknown how Siobhan was recruited for the CMI, she was a former competitor for the project leader.

### Life In the CMI

It is possible that Siobhan views the CMI as a second family and a place where she can become an honourable Change Maker who saves the world at any cost.

#### The Genius Experiment

Siobhan shows up as a contestant who was competing for the project leader. She meets Max, and the two become close friends. Max thought Siobhan's description sounded impressive. Siobhan criedbad she lost the contest, and Max felt badly for the other contestants, so she made Charl and Isabl add them in so that they have a chance to make a change in the world as well.

#### Rebels with a Cause

Max and her team were initially going to go Ireland to help with the farming, Siobhan's home country. But they soon realized that India needed more help with irrigation. They met Siobhan's big family of 10 people. The McKennas lived outside of town, ad in the Irish midlands. Max described them as the family she wish shede had. They observed that many people had stomach cramps or other ailments, including Seamus, Siobhan's younger brother. They were going to find out the problem, but they saw that India had a bigger crisis.

#### Saves the Future

Next, the CMI were on to their next mission: ending world hunger. But there were spies and traitors in their midst. Max loses the exam to become the leader. It hurt her to see the demotion from Ben, her billionaire boss who funds the projects. Instead, Hbna, the Japanese Botanist,and Ms. Kaplan lead the project. But it was soon found that they betrayed the CMI, leading them straight into danger.

## Relationships

* Max-Max is her close genius orphan friend. Siobhan cares about her a lot aended her from Ms. Kaplan and shouted at her for attempting to lure Max by calling Ms. Kaplan "bloody cailleach (witc"h)".

* Tisa - Tisa is Max's other close friend and fellow change maker. Tisa is Max's closs are Tisa andong with Siobhan. She is a billionaire's daughter and she is from Kenya, Africa. She is a biochemist, and Max thouhetabout if she could find out her mysterious past.
* Klaus - Klaus is the one who Siobhan usually fights with. He ordered cheap solar panels so that the CMI would not have to pay that much. But the solar panels were inferior, and they didn't work well. Siobhan called him an eejit (idiot) for that.
* Hana - Hana is possibly Siobhan's enemy. She said that Max was a curse to the team, which greatly triggered Siobhan as the two were extremely close.
* McKenna Family - It is possible that Siobhan misses her family in Ireland, but she rarely talks about it.

## Etymology

### Siobhan

Of Irish origin, the name Siobhan is a female given name, meaning "God is Gracious". The original Irish spelling is Siobhán, with the Síneadh fada acute accent over the 'a', or Shivaun, or Shevaun. The name is derived from Jehane and Jehanne (modern French Jeanne) and is thus a cognate of the English Joan, derived from the roots Loanna and Lohanna. Interestingly enough, Siobhan's brother's name, Sean, is the masculine form of her name.

### McKenna

The surname McKenna is the anglicized form of the Gaelic Irish surname "Mac Cionaoith". Though there are many people with the name McKenna, that does not mean that they are connected by blood, as McKenna is a common surname.

## Possessions

* **Luggage:** None of her possessions are currently known yet, but she had some luggage of which she lost in Saves the Future.

## Affiliation

### CMI

#### First Mission

Siobhan's first mission was to solve an electricity problem in Africa, in the Dominican Republic. She and the other contestants took a final exam that would determine who would be the project leader, with Max prevailing the rest. At first, Max was the chosen one who would solve it with the aid of adult scientists, but she welcomed the other contestants, including Siobhan, back to help her solve it, and they would later become her family and 2 of her closest friends, Siobhan and Tisa. The team enjoyed their time in Africa, checking out the diet of the people, who ate protein from bugs, and tried to make the best out of the cheap solar panels that Klaus ordered.

#### Second Mission

Siobhan requested Max to go to Ireland to help her people who got sick. With Klaus and Tisa joining, they solved the mission, but Tisa and Siobhan stayed at Ireland for a little longer before they went to India, Vihaan's home country. One of the villagers, Ms. James, wanted to make a film about them, but Charl and Isabl did not allow her to get any scenes of Max. That worked well, except Lenard, now Leo, recognized Max's curly red hair and immediately knew she was in India. They narrowly escaped.

#### Third Mission

The CMI's third mission was to end world hunger. They never really completed the mission as the leader of the mission, Hana, was secretly working for the Corp behind their backs.
