Age: 90 (through teleomerase regeneration techniques has the body and health of a 30 year old once the tumors were removed!)

Gender:Both or Neither. When questioned ze replied “Gender? How quaint!” Ze responds to either pronoun, “she” and “her” being most common at the moment since ze is female bodied.

Species: Genetic Amalgamorph. Ze was born human but now hir DNA is an amalgamation of plant, animal, human, and alien species.

Appearance: It changes occasionally through extensive genetic manipulation to reflect hir shifting mood. Ze gets bored easily and tends to keep things interesting: in the past has been a hulking black human male, a Gynandromorph, a cephalopod, and a quadruped mammal. For the past 10 years ze has been an impossibly tall and slender feminine-bodied humanoid.

Height: 6’4

Body type: Ectomorph.

Skin Colour: Porcelain with an opalescent quality when it hits the light. Strange Hexagonal ‘scales’ mark hir temples, shoulder blades, forearms, and décolletage, hinting alien DNA spiraling through the nucleus of hir cells.

Hair Colour: Light... almost white.

Eye Colour: Black, both iris and sclera.

Sexual Characteristics: Human Female.
Background: Ze is one of the finest biotechnologists but hir perchance for radical experimentation drew the ire of hir conservative colleagues. Ze chooses to travel along the fringe of human influence to continue hir research there.


Banneth has one offspring. It travels with hir in a 1.5 x 1 x 1 meter Skinner-unit. Only inky black coils can be seen twitching beyond the glass panel, she calls it Xion.

Talents:
++ Genetic Manipulation.
+++ Biology and Medicine.
+ Agility despite her advanced age.
+++ Intellect
++ Ruthlessness
+ Cunning
- Strength
- - Bedside manner
- - - Tact

Artificial: It is hard to tell what is original and not. Very little of hir is purely inorganic, though hir mental facilities and organ functions are offset by implant nodes both cortically and throughout hir body.

Powers: Moderate Self-Healing.

Hir personal arsenal consists of: two blades with ivory handles, a hypo-spray weapon with a collection of toxins and biological weaponry, and a wrist-mounted blaster. (See Below for Archerification)

Spoiler

  P-68 blaster pistol re-built by Banneth into a wrist mounted unit. Fires 4.5 kJ blaster bolts from a 20-shot battery and gas cartridge. Equipped with a laser sight and a heat resistant guard to prevent injury to the operator's hand. Activated by neural command.

Ze carries an advanced medical kit with hir because ze never can be sure when ze might run into some interesting new DNA to sequence.

Molecular Manipulator in the form of a removable gauntlet whose tip is made up of countless branching manipulator arms, each branch growing smaller until the haze of particles at the end are dexterous enough to manipulate a molecule. This process is slow and time consuming and cannot transmute matter, merely rearrange a sample of it.
