[attr="class","appbold"]PERSONALITY:
- for someone literally wired to the internet, gen is surprisingly laid back. she likes to take her time with what she's doing, even if it's not required. she's very much into savouring the moment and not rushing into things. mind you, she doesn't squander time and is usually quite busy. she's the type to spend four hours making a three course dinner. or an afternoon knitting baby booties for her niece. in her leisure time, gen likes to indulge herself.
gen's also ridiculously responsible. for herself at least. she's careful to think about her actions and their outcomes. and when she miscalculates, more frequently than she would like, she's careful to pick up all the pieces and tries her best to patch things up. however, she has absolutely no intention of cleaning up other people's shit. gen's acquired the reputation of being an unsympathetic hardass. please don't come to her with your problems because even before you can finish your sob story she will cut you off with a scolding, hypocritical, mildly condescending lecture about how you were dumb, even if she might've made the same mistake herself. it's not that she doesn't like people... she's just easily frustrated with how stupid people, including herself, can be and how she has no control over it. and she often finds herself suffering from third-person embarrassment or resurfacing bad memories. and being quite proud, she hates the feeling of humiliation. as a result, she unsuccessfully tries as much as possible to distance herself from other people's failings and problems, lest they remind gen of her own.
but this doesn't prevent her from having fun. in the company of others in casual settings, gen's upbeat and borderline silly. she makes jokes, usually of a sarcastic or self-deprecating nature. and the line between ironic and earnest becomes increasingly blurred with regards to her actions as time passes. she's trying to find the balance between her terrible, judgmental self and being more relaxed about things that bother her.
in all honesty, she's actually a very caring person, who just let's her personal problems get in the way with her relationships with others.

[attr="class","appbold"]HISTORY:
- gen grew up with her sister in an upper-middle class family just outside of torrance. both her mother and father worked in as marketing execs for a car company. she began tinkering with build-your-own science kits around age five, and learned that she had quite a knack for these things. her powers came to her very gradually, so there was never for her that wiz-kid moment where her entire life shattered at the realisation of her abilities. however, there did come a time where she put much more effort into discovering what she could do.
when gen was eight she was attacked by her neighbors dog while she was pet sitting. luckily she survived, though there was severe nerve damage done to her right arm, and with the doctors fearing infection, they decided to amputate. for the next two years, gen dedicated all her free time to developing a fully-functional prosthetic arm capable of syncing with the wearers brain signals. as science isn't magic, even with super powers, her first few attempts were glitchy. one even caught on fire. but by the time she was eighteen, she'd gotten it down and had patented her work that way others could use her technology. following graduating from high school, gen took some time off to build fantastic and completely impractical toys and games, like x-treme pony rides. but none of those ideas panned out quite right. and after three years, her parents understandably told her to go out and make herself more useful. and that is how gen ended up at vu.

[attr="class","appbold"]POWERS:
- TECHNOKINESIS: gen can manipulate and create technology telepathically within a ten foot radius, though she prefer a hands-on approach. through some studying and intuition just by looking at tech she can tell how it works and what components it's made out of. her advanced knowledge and understanding has allowed her to do real cool stuff, namely, create for herself a prosthetic arm that function just like its biological counterpart.
- HER COOL ARM: in addition to her creation's ability to flawlessly copy organic movements, her right arm has enhanced strength and precision and is weaponised. gen's prosthetic features a silicon-based outer casing with properties similar to that of a cuttlefish, allowing it to change patterns. the prosthetic, which begins mid-bicep, is equipped with a built in taser, allowing her to apprehend people in a safe manner. additionally, at tip of her index finger is a retractable blade. it's maybe two inches at it's longest, and she uses it to open her mail and cut yarn. this is one of many models she's created over the last nine years. many of its predecessors were much more elaborate, featuring built-in phones with internet access and glitchy canons. but she settled on the functional, simple design.
