Profile

In the abyssal navy, there are numerous motivations. Some members seek a semblance of belonging, others search for a forgotten past, and still more seek only to become the most efficient killers. This dark admiral is an abyssal scientist, unconcerned with concepts such as restraint which serves only to hinder the steady march of progress. Arising from the lingering hate of a vicious battle fought long ago, she embodies the technological superiority held by one side of that battle and seeks to constantly improve her abyssal underlings, whether they want it or not. Outwardly, she is a cold, calculating individual who beholds all before her with an air of lukewarm disdain; a scientific, observational veneer stretched over carefully restrained rage. While she does command a fleet of abyssal warships, including her own artificially ascended creations, her personal arsenal consists of large numbers of abyssal attack aircraft. Per her own augmentations, however, this is not the limit of her offensive power; scattered reports suggest she consumes other abyssal ships and mounts their weapons to herself.
