Agent Nevada

Setting: Mother of Invention

Name: {Redacted,Level2}

Age: 21

Alias: Nevada, 'Ada'

Nationality: English

Appearance: Small, thin stature, pale skin, light brown hair halfway between her shoulders and chin, green eyes, and two scars, one small along her right temple and one large at the small of her back. She has the general appearance of a teenager.

Personality: Despite being shy at first sight, Ada will become far more confident around those she knows. She has a very strong sense of right and wrong but doesn't seem to have the strength to really do much on her own. Ada is often reckless, picking fights and running into danger without really thinking it all through. Ada is very protective of those around her, and having her AI, Kappa, helped balance out her reckless nature with someone to protect –constantly. She is also pseudo-religious, praying to any deity that takes her fancy and quite superstitious.

Outside of fights and missions, she is generally very cheery and bright. Her outlook is very childish from her sheltered upbringing, and she tends to separate the different sides as simply 'good' and 'bad'. She beams at praise but has a thin skin for criticism unless it is given in a gentle manner.

In fights, other agents have described her as 'disturbing'. She will become introverted and emotionless, responding to orders shortly and is actually very polite. She snaps this personality on and off, and the sudden changes seem to be what unnerves most of her peers. She doesn't seem to be aware of this habit.

Note: after her brother's death, Ada became slightly unstable. She constantly looks for approval from any sort of 'big brother' substitute. Illinois seems to be the one filling this role. Doesn't seem to affect her performance on or off the field, but should be watched.

Relationships: While Ada tries to be likeable, some Freelancers harbour a dislike of her, mainly because they see her as an annoying child. Other than that, she is generally liked, or at least tolerated, by the other Freelancers. Agent Kentucky has been her friend since childhood, and Agents New Jersey and Illinois became her friends as well, the latter in a sort of father-daughter relationship. In an argument about cricket, the Australian Massachusetts took a liking to Ada as well, and Georgia grew close to her after they met at the gym and found they had similar CQB styles.

Specialization: Explosives/Demolition

Armour: Ada has standard MJOLNIR Mark VI armour, primarily sage green with dark grey trim.

Armour Enhancements: Kinetic Absorption, allowing her suit to absorb many large impacts.
She can release this energy through attacks or give it to Kenni via the Transfer Units installed in their armours' gloves.

AI: Kappa, who represents the Alpha's sympathy. He takes the form of a thirteen-year-old boy, the image taken from Ada's memories of an old friend. Kappa and Ada are always on friendly terms, and because of his kind personality Ada is very protective of him, to the point where she stopped being so reckless when it was his life in danger as well as hers. Unfortunately, Kappa is a common target for Gamma and Omega, which pulls Ada into some fights with Wyoming and Tex.

Preferred Weapons and Fighting Techniques: From a very young age Ada showed promise in gymnastics, and this shows in her close-quarters combat. She is a good hand-to-hand fighter, though she is physically weaker than most. When needing a weapon she will head for the DMR or another semi- or non-automatic weapon. M6G is her secondary weapon.

Backstory: Born into the beautifully stereotyped world of high society London, Ada grew up with a workaholic father and a mother. Ada's mother attempted to get her daughter interested in dresses, dances, etc., but it quickly became apparent that the young girl had no care for such things and was more interested in following her brother's lifestyle. To try and appease Ada's sporty personality, her mother signed her up for gymnastics when she was seven, where she met another young girl (an American) and they became friends. Ada stuck with gymnastics until she was eighteen. It seems most of what Ada knew about combat up until that point came from her brother, James.

However, at age twenty, Ada went to the movies with her brother. On their way home, at around 11pm, they were mugged by two youths armed with knives. When both siblings tried to fight off their attackers, the youths panicked at lashed out, injuring their victims. James's injuries proved fatal, and he was pronounced dead at the scene. Ada recovered from a knife to the small of her back, but the area still has a large scar. When their mother learned of this, she blamed Ada for her son's death and pushed her out of the house. With nothing else to do, Ada joined the military with her friend, who would later become Agent Kentucky. Due to their exceptional performance (especially together) in basic, they attracted the attention of Director Church and were offered a place in Project Freelancer.
