now for anyone who cares - here's some stuff about this OC

Both she and her older sister exist in an alternate/futuristic universe where people can modify their bodies with various mechanical extensions. They can be custom built or you can buy generic mods, and then calibrate and program the mods yourselves. The extensions serve different purposes, from purely decorative, to medical, to weaponry.

She has an obnoxiously high IQ with a knack for building an engineering. she's something of an underground biomedical engineer, building custom mechanical extensions and body modifications, building each piece from scratch and programming and calibrating the thing herself. She goes by the alias Machine, and most people know Machine's mods are some of the best in the world. Getting into contact with Machine is fairly simple, but getting her to agree to a request is next to impossible. She essentially only takes two kinds of jobs - the ones that are commissioned by the rich that have virtually no practical functionality but look cool, and actually useful ones for those who need it. Nobody knows who Machine actually is, and most people believe to be Machine to be a man.

While she's generally considered to be quite attractive, personality-wise Machine's pretty unpleasant. She's smart but doesn't really know how to deal with people - herself included. That's where the name "machine" came from - she's incredibly stoic and rarely shows emotion on her face. That's not to say she doesn't feel things - she does - she just doesn't really know how to recognize emotions as what they are and how to properly express and deal with them. Apart from this she doesn't really see people face-to-face that often and spends most of her days indoors. If she does go outside, it's usually purely for work purposes, and even then she's wearing a mask so as to avoid being recognized. Despite being terrible with people, Machine is generally a good person. She doesn't believe this though, and does what she can to atone for what she believes to be previous wrong-doings by taking some of the money she earns from dealing with rich people and creating mechanical extensions for those who need it but cannot afford it. Overall she's a pretty gloomy character.

Machine is missing her right eye. She has the technology to restore her sight, but she can't bring herself to fix it due to the circumstances in which she lost it.
