Devi

**Devi** is a former member of Ahankar's elite military units, currently a resident of Mu and tentative ally of the Mu Squad.

## Biography

Once a rising star on her home planet, a member of an elite unit despite her very young age, Devi was assigned by Ahankari Prime to assist Tyler Rmoutil in his efforts to capture a night stalker specimen for Prime. However, during the course of the mission, the team was attacked on a Waypoint world by some hostile creatures native to that planet, and Devi was separated from the group. Somehow, she dialed Mu's address, and told the Mu Squad of the incident. She was taken prisoner, however, and eventually assassinated by Mase.

Selene and Za'via, experimenting with the instruments in Mu's medical lab, managed to activate a medical hologram that advised them to "cure" Devi's condition (death) with the Revivitas Chamber. This was successful, however all of Devi's memories of her prior life were erased completely. She was unable to remember her home, family, or even her own name, as well as her death and the circumstances thereof.

Despite some doubts, she adapted well to life on Mu, transforming one of the larger rooms into a firing range to train herself and others. She also began wandering into the jungle, slowly establishing two outposts there with the help of Joela Vallis.

## Appearance

Devi is an attractive, very fit young woman with short hair, thick eyebrows and light-purple eyes. She likes to wear simple clothing in pale colours, typically short tunics and high socks that emphasize her youth and vulnerability. Her face rarely shows any expression, and her movements are notably efficient.

## Personality

Generally, Devi appears quite pleasant and polite, even sweet, but distant from others. She spends much of her time by herself and deflects conversation from herself whenever she can. Beneath her demure manner, however, Devi is highly distressed by her amnesia and resents her status as a quasi-prisoner on Mu, as shown when she snapped and threatened to shoot Kira with a plasma pistol allegedly modified to kill (in actuality, modified to deliver only a mild sting).

### Former Personality

Before having her memories erased, Third Devi was a loyal and soft-spoken member of the Ahankaran elite forces. When captured by "hostile aliens" she showed herself to be cool and calm under pressure, presenting a dry sense of humour and a friendly attitude to her captors regardless of what she might have been feeling internally.

## Abilities

* Photographic memory: She was able to accurately recall Mu's gate address after seeing it once, briefly, in a combat situation.
* Weapons proficiency: A trained solder, Devi is proficient in armed and unarmed combat. She retains this proficiency even after losing her memories.
* Languages: Thanks to her cranial implant, Devi is able to understand and speak any language she comes into contact with.
* Engineering: Though she does not remember how she learned, Devi has surprising engineering skills, especially when it comes to building small devices. She was also able to casually rewire a plasma pistol in plain view of two others.

## Relationships

Devi's relationships are hard to measure, as she tries to stay on the good sides of the people she still considers her captors while revealing little of herself or her true feelings. As such, there's a lot of ambiguity in interpreting her feelings towards anyone.

### Julius Romani

Out of the whole Mu Squad, Devi is closest to Julius, encouraging his interest in her.

### Dinesh

Though they rarely interact, Devi and Dinesh seem to treat each other with veiled contempt.

### Queen Za'via

Devi is openly cautious towards Za'via, but they talk occasionally and there may be a kind of mutual understanding between the two.
