#### Character Profile

Stop her immediately if her invention poses a risk to the experiments. Therefore, whenever she finds a person she likes, she makes even more outrageous requests in order to see how far that person will go for her. She thinks that the more they are willing to fulfill her requests, the more they respect her. I think she is a very tiring person once you get too close.

According to her diaries, her parents wanted her to become a doctor and nobody was interested in her inventions. It's remarkable that she kept her dream to be an inventor for 20 years while nobody was recognizing her talent.

There was a robot that was nearly finished. We've been told that she did not come out of her house for 15 years. We assume that this robot is a result of her 15 years of dedication. 16M-RFT15 must have imagined people would recognize her as an inventor once this robot is completed.

She would do anything to finish this robot. Use this as a bait when you have to control her.

#### Behavior pattern [*Craft Guardian Suit 5 time(s)*]

16M-RFT15 thinks of the other Subjects as her 'assistants.' She believes that geniuses have a privilege and must be respected, that they deserve recognition by everyone else. Therefore, as a genius, she feels she can give any orders however she pleases. And if people don't follow her orders, then she thinks they are disobeying her because they are too stupid to understand how smart she is.

Her genius is not a valid reason for others to follow her absurd requests. But I think 16M-RFT15 has different thoughts on the matter. She believes that the top 1% keeps the other 99% alive. She thinks she deserves gratitude for sparing her valuable time to tolerate a bunch of morons. She thinks that people should be thankful that she has sacrificed her time by just being with them, so she likes people who do express their appreciation to her or sincerely praise her aptitude.

This is the reason she likes 15M-RFT17 and 16M-RFT19. These two never reject her requests unless they are outrageously unreasonable, so she likes them even more. After receiving advanced education in youth, she spent most of her time in the basement lab doing research.

She never had a chance to develop normal adult relationships. 16M-RFT15 simply believes that the closeness of a relationship is based on how well they follow her demands. Therefore, whenever she finds a person she likes, she makes ever more outrageous requests in order to see how far that person will go for her. She thinks that the more they are willing to fulfill her requests, the more they respect her.

I think she is a very tiring person once you get too close.

#### Weakness and Trauma [*Craft Radar 3 time(s)*]

16M-RFT15 is more vulnerable than most others. Bad temper is one of them, but, also, once she gets into a flow, she becomes oblivious to her surroundings.

She is especially weak to praises. When we look at her life before coming here, it seems like she had never been praised by anyone. Her parents denied her talents and other people acknowledged that she was smart, but not smart enough to be called a genius.

It is fact that she has never produced anything complete. Because of her bad temper, many people have tried to put her down. As she has never been validated by anyone, she tends to rely on other people's judgments even more. Since she gives in easily to others' praises, she is used by others just as often as she uses others to fulfill her goals. She goes too far to help or to accomplish things because she wants to get more compliments.

Of course, she doesn't show that she is trying hard. Not because she's worried that people might feel uneasy, but because she wants to look like a genius to whom everything is a trivial task. So when anyone wants to have her do something that she doesn't like doing it, they should induce her cooperation by giving her compliments.

#### Likes and Dislikes [*Craft Cosmic Watch 3 time(s)*]

16M-RFT15 is keenly interested in machines. She tried to take the bracelet apart once - to no avail, of course. She is also interested in prosthetic limbs, maybe because she used to be a surgeon.

She seems to be uninterested by nature, including animals and plants. She fears handling living things. Perhaps she hated surgery so intensely because of this.

I believe 16M-RFT15 is beyond doing the hard work herself, so whenever she has to work with others, she asks them to get what she needs. Then 16M-RFT15 goes and hides in the factory to make things out of them. It's a wonder why she does not get cast out of alliances as she never does the hard work herself and only acts when something intrigues her. But the machines she makes are sometimes useful for survival, so I guess people continue to put up with her. I am sure other people are smart enough to calculate the benefits of cooperating with her.

Most of all, she likes nerd jokes. She might find them hilarious but others find them excruciating. One day, 14M-RFT08 complained that his laptop was dead. 16M-RFT15 suggested he take a power nap because it builds up charge. 14M-RFT08 did not laugh. At all. She thinks her jokes don't work because others are too uneducated to 'get' them. Her jokes are not funny at all, but they come back to haunt me when I'm trying to fall asleep. Is self-prescription permissible?

#### Acquaintance Interview [*Win 3 time(s) while holding Soldering Iron*]

Barbara? You mean that gloomy, Freaky B?. Yeah, she's famous at our shop. She orders a pizza everyday and it’s the same pizza every single time. The phone always rings right at 11, just as we open the store. I'm pretty sure it's all recorded. Sometimes, we tell her that we are out of certain ingredients for her pizza, but she just continues with reading out her credit card number. So I brace myself for her angry curses and bring what we could make. To my relief, she is nonchalant about it.

One day, I kept knocking, but she wouldn't answer the door, so I was pondering if I should go down to the basement... Yeah, the basement. That's where she wants her pizza to be delivered every time. I think she lives in that basement. Tinkering about.

Anyway, the door was left open. What the heck! I had to deliver the pizza, and I just had to know what that crazy Freaky B looked like. It was a scene of the mechanic shop. There were a bunch of expensive-looking machines and it was dizzyingly messy.

Whatever it was she was making, sparks were flying from the wielder in front of that iron piece. I couldn't dare myself to talk to her so I just left it on the stairs. At that fleeting moment, I caught a sight of her expression in the flash of the spark. I got the heebie-jeebies so bad. She had this big, crazy smile on her face, like she was having so much fun... too much fun. Jeez, I'm never going down there again.
