About Rhundas

First and foremost, Rhundas, or 'Das as she prefers to be called, is not simply a catgirl. 'Das is an Eldraxian, the first of a player-designed and player-maintained race of feline-esque aliens.

'Das is a rather adventurous and outgoing character. She's generally always up for trying new things, but always wary of something too far out of her comfort zone. Holding a conversation with her can be a difficult task due to her almost reclusive disposition, despite her status as a relatively well known mechanic, her shady reputation as a mercenary, and title of the leading Eldraxologist for the UNTIL corporation.

It's a relatively rare sight to find 'Das in Club Caprice. She prefers to avoid large crowds as she is still not completely used to vocal language and the background noise of too many people talking can potentially induce a migraine. If 'Das visits Caprice, she tends to stand alone or with a small group of friends who are distanced from the bulk of people at the bar. This spacing out is also due to 'Das very low tolerance of people fooling around and the type of undesirables the bars tend to attract.

Personalities - what to expect

'Das currently suffers from a mix of schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder. As such she can snap from moods such as apathetic to empathetic in the blink of an eye. She doesn't seem to have a "tell" when she's switching moods, and it can become a rapid-fire set of jumps between countless different moods within the space of minutes. 'Das has been sighted to just randomly break down into tears in Caprice for no apparent reason whatsoever.

These disorders are a result of the various traumas she has had to endure during her short life so far, including - but not limited to:

• Six years alone in space
• A crash landing on an unknown planet
• Absorbing an entirely new culture
• The death of a close friend during a face-to-face encounter

Skills

Combat Training

Due to her being a Special Forces branch of the Eldraxian military, later dubbed 'TacCom', 'Das has received extensive military training, honing her reactions and prowess in modern combat situations to nigh-perfection. She's not in any way the most unbeatable thing since those two damn Lego bricks you just can't pry apart, but she is a formidable foe in battle nonetheless.

Moral 'Toggle'

Part of 'Das' training involved being taught to be able to shut out any kind of moral obligations while she is in a hostile environment. While she is "gone", there is absolutely no hesitation in her actions of any kind. She will quite methodically shoot people in the back, terminate unarmed hostiles and even endanger innocents to take out her marks. She adamantly argues that the latter is not true, but anyone can easily observe her do it under the right circumstances.

Firearms proficiency

The main bulk of 'Das' training consisted of firearm drills with multiple different types of armament. During the training she astounded her superiors with how quickly she could adapt to learning how to effectively use a firearm she had never laid hands on until five minutes prior. This quick learning and adaptability has carried on with her throughout her life and is still prevalent in the present day where she has mastered the use of human assault rifles and shotguns.

Reactions

The harsh regime of 'Das' training have elevated her reactions to far above average, while keeping them at pinpoint precision. She can quite literally switch her rifle aim between two targets five feet apart without taking her finger off the trigger or missing a shot while tracking across.

This also carries over to her uncanny ability to dodge most attacks thrown her way or her speed on powering up her forceshields to protect against ranged attacks.

'Das' reactions are further augmented by her cybernetics

Gifted Mechanic

Since her arrival on Earth, 'Das had always been fascinated by all sorts of machines, from simple toasters to complex combat robots to bionic limb replacements. Once again her adaptability and quick learning have come into play and 'Das has very quickly become a highly competent manufacturer of weapons, robots and almost anything mechanical in between.

Armaments Manufacture

'Das is currently the sole manufacturer of a small branch of the arms industry known as "Rhundas Armaments". She personally manufactures various types of firearm to fit the demand, including assault rifles, shotguns, handguns and - occasionally - sniper rifles.

She also creates a selection of body armours, ranging from basic kevlar vests to more complex suits of power armour, such as her own private E.P.U or Energy Projection Unit.

Robotics Manufacture

As well as being able to create he own weapons and armour, 'Das is a prodigy when it comes to creating and programming AI. She has created several robots for various tasks, ranging from her own personal healing drones, dubbed Dasdroids in parody to Dr. Destroyer's Destroids, to an entirely synthetic body for Equilibrium after his untimely death. She has also created two 'parody' robots which mimic the personalities and actions of close friends, currently she has a "likeness" of herself and Tia Steward produced.

Augmentations and Cybernetics

No soldier is without their scars, and 'Das is no exception. Her body has been crippled in multiple different ways, and enhanced through others, some of which she does not even fully understand herself. Thankfully her skills as a mechanic and programmer have enabled her to pull through her disabilities and carry on living her life as she always has - on the edge and potentially risking further damage.

Augmentations

These additions or repairs to 'Das' body could also be called bionic limbs. Due to a multitude of accidents, poor decisions and simply being bested in combat, 'Das has suffered the loss of more than a few parts of her body which she has had to replace with mechanical limbs. Some of these would include:

• Her left eye - lost when she let her guard down to Sharpe Vulpes
• Her left arm - shoulder was crippled beyond repair after a confrontation with Jake Alexey
• Her right forearm and leg - lost in an accidental explosion in her workshop

Cybernetics

In addition to 'Das augmentations, her nervous system is also wired up with more cybernetics than your average cyborg. 'Das herself does not even know the origins of this work and isn't entirely sure what it all does. So far all she knows is that it has further boosted her reactions beyond the fruits of her training, and also plays some part in keeping her alive through quite horrific injuries, such as the loss or partial loss of limbs. These cybernetics also have increased her stamina and endurance by a large amount, allowing her to work for longer and more intensively than even some of the more hardy Eldraxians.
