## History

Little is known about Gamera's history prior to coming into Nova's care, aside from her initially being branded by Militech. Nova discovered her wrecked in the Badlands outside of Night City when she was thirteen after a job went sideways. Fortunately her brother Sonny and some other nomads arrived to help, but she was already on her way. She convinced him to help her take the 'wreck' back to the Aldecaldos camp. After a few years of the two of them stripping her down to her frame and undamaged body panels. The two of them managed to restore her body and frame to near stock quality, aside from the mismatched paint job. Sonny helped Nova install a Smuggling compartment and Housing Capacity so she could start helping with transport jobs and long hauls.

After finishing a Gig in Japantown, just off of Jig-Jig Street, a couple of Mox attempt to carjack Gamera from Nova. After a brief altercation and realization they were in need of help, Nova drove them out of the Tyger Claws area following a chase. Which resulted in the windshield was shot out and some general body damage. Upon arriving at Lizzie's Bar, the Mox that rode shotgun introduced herself as "Foxy". After some flirting Nova was inspired to name her 'Gamera' thanks to a suggestion by Foxy. Nova's next round of upgrades for Gamera was Thin Bulletproof Glass and NOS.

In late January of 2045 a bounty had been put out on The Runaways, Nova picked up K2 and used the NOS to evade both Militech and Arasaka. The next day during the lead up to a surprise illegal concert showing the city that Johnny Silverhand was alive, Nova spotted Adam Smasher heading towards the venue. With little time to think Nova drove Gamera into Smasher attempting to cause enough of a scene to give everyone a chance to run. Unfortunately Adam Smasher lived up to his name and smashed the front of Gamera, but she still protected her driver as Adam Smasher attempted to punch at Nova through the windshield. Nova angrily had to abandon Gamera so they could execute the rest of their plan.

After things cooled down Nova and Sonny got to work on Gamera's next round of upgrades. Begrudgingly Nova wasn't able to secure everything she wanted to do, she did manage to upgrade to Thick Bulletproof Glass, a Heavy Chassis, dual deploy able Spike Strips and a Rocket Pod. A few days after getting Gamera back to being road worthy she out ran a pair of MaxTec AV's as the attempted to lockdown the area. Nova decided it would be a good idea to attempt to hide Gamera's distinct paint job till she devises a better plan.
