Pandora "Panda" Oliveberry

Pandora Oliveberry, usually using their nickname Panda, is a genderfluid Changeling from the Feywild. They are a scholar at the Red College of Hermetics and a member of the student council, and while they have gotten involved in Wastehunting, specifically with Diamant's Crew, it was (at least initially) only with the goal of completing a class project. Panda is also training to become a mage, though as of now does not appear to have any spellcasting capabilities. Mechanically, they are a Changeling Scholar. Panda is only working with Diamant's Crew temporarily, as they really aren't suited to combat, but for now is acting as the brains and the scholar of the group.

## History

### Before the events of MONOLITH

Little is known about Panda's background. They are a Changeling, meaning they originated in the Feywild and at some point made it to Abinor. They are also enrolled at the Red College of Hermetics and are a student council member, implying they are very skilled academically. Finally, they seem to view Diana Bernhardson as a friend, though Diana's behaviors imply this may be a one sided friendship.

### ARTIFICIAL HEART

Panda contacted and hired Ringer and Auntie, before calling up and meeting with Diamant and Azat, making up the initial 5 members in Diamant's Crew (while Panda technically formed the group, they immediately deferred leadership to their far more charismatic friend). The group initially set off for the journey in Panda's car. Panda themself used their Scholar's Aid to assist in a few key moments, but for the most part only assisted in terms of explaining information and putting pieces together. They self-admitted to being very poorly suited to a fight, and were somewhat shellshocked after the Toxic Avatar fight, though they managed to move past it. Panda assisted in getting Stroke released after the group finished the initial investigation. Panda left the group after the 2466 AutoDoc Bombing temporarily, but rejoined them at Tartarus and went to the meeting at Megabuilding C15 with them.

## Biological Information

As a Changeling, Panda can essentially alter their physical characteristics at will, adjusting everything from facial structure to coloring. This also is a part of their genderfluidity, something common amongst many Changelings who will often adjust their sexual characteristics in accordance with how they feel in a situation. Panda's "default" form, as in the one they are most commonly presenting as, is a 5' 7" androgynous Elf with completely white skin, black lips and hair, and neon green pupiless eyes, as well as a slightly bulky frame and figure.
