**Cinta** is a character from the Compass Project series, first appearing in Gregale. She is a Ruby Elite and acted as a tank-support team member.

## Appearance

Cinta is one of the tallest Avios, being over seven foot tall. She has soft orange eyes and grey-brown hair and feathers, partially burnt off due to fire.

#### **Synth Features**

In Gregale, Cinta states that her wings were over forty foot long before they were damaged.  She still retains a lot of her feathers which are an ashy-grey brown colour.

She is a Vulture-based Avio, and Griffin assumes that when her wings were undamaged they would have easily been over forty feet long.

## Personality

For a Ruby Elite, Cinta is surprisingly calm in comparison to other Rubies.

She is caring and alert to others being in trouble, likely due to doubling as a Support role when she was working with her team, and has a wide vocabulary range. Of all of the Gregales, she is the most amiable and cracks jokes now and then in order to playfully tease others.

Despite her calmness, she is highly upset by death, as when seeing the Langurs holding a dead raptor, she becomes distressed and then angry towards Sweet who is dismissive of the idea of burring the body.

## History

**Pre-Gregale**

Along with King, Cinta originated from Jakarta in Indonesia. She trained as a Ruby within Southeast Asia, working as the group's Tank and occasional support due to her huge size. Her injuries were caused by fire created from molotov cocktails that Cinta admits she made herself.

#### **Gregale**

In Gregale, Cinta is fairly open and relaxed during the project. She happily talks with others and is the most calm of them all, showing no signs of any PTSD or trauma, beyond flinching whenever someone touches the burns or scars.

## Abilities

#### **Strength**.

Cinta boasts at being very strong, enough so that she can lift heavy Synths like Pards whilst flying, and even proves it when she hauls Dr Kane into the air.

## Relationships

* Griffin

Cinta gets along well with Griffin, being calm and attentive to her instructions.

* Immortal

Immortal and Cinta are comfortable with one another.

* Westwind

Although they have nothing personal against each other and they do get along, there is an element of wariness on Cinta's behalf towards Westwind, where she will look to Griffin first before talking with her. This is likely due to Westwind being a Sapphire as Rubies and Sapphires have a long standing rivalry.

* Faraday

Although they are both Rubies, Faraday is a vastly different person to Cinta, and they bicker like siblings. Cinta having a bigger vocabulary and understanding of words than Faraday provides him with different solutions to what he is trying to say, and Faraday challenges Cinta's patience.

* Sweet

Like the others, Cinta will roll her eyes at Sweet whenever she acts condescending but doesn't interact much with her, Cinta does not tolerate Sweet's flippant attitude, especially towards death.

* King

Cinta and King knew each other in passing in Jakarta, but didn't have much of a relationship beforehand. When they want to speak privately they switch to indonesian.

## Quotes

* “Well would you look at that! Not a boob in sight! You can even check if you like.”

* "I had a nearly forty-foot wingspan. Although the heaviest I managed was this Pard in full armour who broke his leg.”

## Trivia
