OC Character Profile
20/1/14 03:56Her setting:( Forge )
To 'cover' the pain over the loss of her mother, Amelia assimilated herself into her father's practice, and began to soak up knowledge like a sponge. She read books on Aerodynamic Theory and Steam Engine construction during her childhood - but took particular interest in the science of robotics and the books written by the "Father of Robotics," Aiden Rudolph. As a result, Amelia constructed her robot companion, Bit, when she was a mere eight years old.
From there it seemed Amelia's genius knew no bounds. When she grew into a teenager, she could assist her father's Engineer work repairing tanks and military-grade vehicles. She constructed more robots from robotic pets to a specialized training-bot used by the soldiers on-base. To do this, she became particularly gifted in "rune etching" - a practice using rune carvings as a sort of 'code' to give the power of Moonstones (a frequent substitute for magic in her mana-desolate world) the ability to perform certain functions.
At age 17, she left the hum-drum of Engineering for the military and went instead into freelance R&D. Rather than work on the same-old tech the military had, her job became researching and developing new technologies for use by soldiers and residents alike. She perfected the Rune Gyro, which allowed soldiers to use powers resembling magic on the field. Her other inventions include the early processes of utilizing wind energy, and the refrigerator. Her passion remained in robotics however.
Now she is eighteen. Her life of study and genius has lead her to be somewhat socially awkward. She prefers the company of robots over the company of people, believing strongly that machines are in fact better than humans and their fickle nature. (She was bullied a lot in school for skipping grades!) She's not without her friends, though, and a dream left to her by her mother: to get her own airship, her own crew, and to explore.
