Mystika

Name: Khr'cinna
Hero Name: Mystika

Background: The eldest daughter of Phazor Valzad XIII ruler of the Malvan Empire and one of his cousins he had a fling with well marriage isn't common, anymore, and he has a large harem. But wanted some children of proper lineage she the first. An odd child she was curious, gifted and thanks to AI robots educated. It was when she left to enter the Cavern of the Wisdom Stones and learned in the back corners the ancient power of Technothaumaturgy back from a time before the Great Worm War when magic was still challenging technology and for a time it merged. She left for supplies and had a home build floating near the Cavern the AI only finding out why when she openly used Technomagic for the first time outside the caves and it got it. A Technothaumaturge moved among the race only fragments of knowledge known to the computers it was so old. When she did a rote reprogramming a robot and arming it testing it in the gladiatorial games the AI was shocked if she could do that she might pose a threat to them and the species. But it couldn't stop her she was a Malvan and it had to aid her. But the AI was concerned enough to watch her closely. When her father using foreseeing technology saw humanity as a new power which will someday pose a concern millennia, he decided to send an ambassador and the AI recommended his daughter and heir. In truth it was to get her off planet and where the AI could study her advancements, her father finding her oddly ambitious thought it would get her out of his hair and frankly it made sense she might rule when humanity was posing a risk. Upon arrival she was granted UN Diplomatic Immunity and the status of Alien Observer which opened up planetary travel and visitation. And settled in under her heroic name figuring she might s well help make the planet safer and help people plus can channel resources of her planet to do some good and develop some goodwill.

Malvan Technothaumaturgy: Before technology proper became the mighty force in the Malvan life before the War with the Elder Worm there was a period of magic joining technology to form technothaumaturgy. Learned from the oldest Wisdom Stones those of the several dozen Technomaesters the leaders of the magical orders she recovered many secrets. And learned without this knowledge her people were cursed by the Elder Worms to decay that forced out the species vitality. Her powers come from force of will, her clothing carefully placed devices to channel and focus her power and incantations together a Technothaumaturge can do anything, be anything based on their raw power level. In the old lore their power could do many great feats and in time might have made them a match for anything technology could do now in their culture. But Technology was easier a road so took a superior position as magic died.

Personality: In truth she is ambitious for her people actually having a profession ss a diplomat and a knowledge and practical skill set and so was odd she dresses conservatively, didn't like gladiator games, was offended by slavery and thinks maybe relying so much on AI is a 'bad thing'. Noting once they were a species who rules the galaxy and let their vitality die well until she found out it was magic doing it, which drove her to study and master the basics of technothaumaturgy. In truth she can't do that and being sensible won't do that it would be cruel so might have to consider other options when ,if, she rules. She takes her job seriously however even though due to the home world AI officially running everything important her role more ceremonial. In time she will maybe get granted more authority to make choices but it (they) doesn't (don't) trust her as a group of AI's go. Her major interest is helping humanity with aid when her resource access allows it within the boundaries of their technology and tough love handing money to corrupt human governments to 'help' citizens isn't overly appealing to her. But there are enough fools on her planet she doesn't like people who can and don't have value to society a pampered wealthy girl would get far less respect than a construction worker everything else considered the latter has a trade and doesn't live to look pretty so tends to be kind and practical and supporting those with needs in real ways. This extends to her hobby as a fighter of crime and villainy.

Appearance: She dresses by her peoples standards conservatively in robes and her hair braided all of which is part of her technothaumaturgical technology components forged from nearly indestructible alloys but not state of the art. Favoring hues of blue to match her skin and hair but also styled to be free to move around in. She is tall by human standards a at nearly six feet, fit and proportionate in weight and has a comely figure. Her talisman is a battery to store power for her magic to be tapped first in a fight and has on her a utility belt this holding professional papers, a credit card (getting that was amusing but she is backed by her government so paying it isn't an issue for her black American Express card) and personal items in the pockets. Its more practical than a purse. Although she can change into any outfit all having the needed components to use her main power.

Malvan Consular's Station: In Central City on a Corner Downtown is a simple enclosed area ,a former ice cream parlor, is a comfortable Malvan themed space with a sole computer station what amounts to the Embassy the AI doing most of the work with some minor robots. Her work amounts to approving applications to visit Malvan and ceremonial duties and doing the odd reports home when she does one. [She doesn't do too much here in fact the computer does most tasks and well it was set-up apart from her well before arriving her home is wherever she decides to live with her large amount of wealth.]
