Astro and P.A.T.C.H BIO

Special agent Astro and P.a.t.c.h (Personal Automated Technology Charged Helper)

Species- Lombax

Age 20

Astro was an only child born to well off parents. She never lacked anything though her parents who had very little time for her. Astro was looked after an A.I companion and guardian cat robot called P.A.T.C.H.

Astro has albino colouration and is small in size and wasn't allowed out much so she often felt that there was something wrong with her. While she strove to be be brilliant and excel threw herself into everything, Astro still felt unwanted and hid from the world. She became more withdrawn, with P.A.T.C.H as her only friend.

Astro is very intelligent and easily became top of her class. She practised martial and sword arts from an early age and enjoyed learning the skills. She upgraded P.A.T.C.H except his voice as it was not practical for his model, she knows him well enough to understand his mews.

Astro’s parents died in an industrial accident at one of their technology development factories and afterwards Astro left her home world to go to Metropolis University on Kerwan. Her studies were interrupted during a terrorist attack on the city. Astro was caught up in the fighting and suffered a bad injury to her eye.

Sasha rescued her during one of her early missions to aid the planet. Astro was then approached by the S.T.A.R organisation (Strategic Tactical Attack and Rescue) and decided to train as a special agent.

During her training she makes good friends with Katcha, Talion and Jericho and starts to come out of her shell. Astro eventually replaced her damaged eye with a bio-wear eye patch and upgrades P.A.T.C.H to help in the field. She removes the fake fur and replaces the outer casing with a toughened plastic. She backs up Patch’s AI and memory files every day in case something happens to him.

P.A.T.C.H is very lightweight and Astro can throw Patch up to high ledges and across large gaps. P.A.T.C.H has small retractable blasters added to his forearms. Also due his small size, he can infiltrate places to spy and record all that he sees and hears. P.A.T.C.H is very determined and not much seems to bother him. He isn’t a fan of water though, always trying to avoid it if possible.

Astro is still somewhat self-conscious of her eye and has grown her hair over that side as the bio-wear can easily see through it.

Astro is very agile and an expert sword fighter, she always carries her Electro-sword with her. She has Jump Boots too help get around. She is also a very quick learner so has no problem handling different weapons and vehicles. She has her own ship, a small fighter built by the technology company she inherited.

Astro is rather shy and has to get to know someone first before opening up. She is prone to fits of melancholy and wanting to be alone. Astro can be quiet when she doesn’t feel like talking but if she saying something she feels is important she hate being ignored, Astro secretly likes attention but hates getting it at the same time and gets both delighted embarrassed about being praised.

Astro is generally calm but doesn’t take things too seriously and is easily amused by things. She is a bit of a joker at times, unless she’s on mission where she’s very focused and likes to get the job done. She is very creative, coming up with other plans and ideas if the way ahead looks too risky. While Astro is very independent and usually works alone but doesn’t mind company, as long as they don’t getting her way, then she can get impatient with them. Astro loves learning and is always reading books, finding out facts and studying.

Astro is rather insomniac and likes staying up and hates getting up in the morning. She loves playing computer games esp. RP and adventure games. She doesn’t like eating much but has a big sweet tooth. Astro has a phobia of giant space centipedes due to a bad experience with them once. Despite being so focused, Astro isn’t very tidy, her room regularly looks like a bomb has gone off in it.
