Name: Product Model V15, Variant A, Model #7.
Alias: Vista.
Age: 5 years.
Species: Android.
Location: Middle City Market, Argus' apartment.
Appearance: As a V15 model, Vista was designed to an exacting humanoid figure; the "A" designation indicates designed gender, in this case female. Vista is five feet, five inches tall, constructed to match the "ideal figure" of a woman in her early twenties. Her outer chassis is primarily a non-reflective silver tone, with a number of reinforced plates a semi-reflective black. Her product number is etched into a plate at the point where her "neck" and "shoulders" come together. A series of modifications- made either by a previous owner, or by Argus- enable Vista to synchronize accurate lip movements with her speech. The V15 line itself is unique amongst android models in that its products are able to "eat and drink" similar to normal humans- food and liquid are reduced to their base elements and heated by a photon-based reacion to burn, thus creating an alternate source of energy.
It is not entirely uncommon for Vista to wear human-style clothing from various eras- though it seems that either she or Argus has a preference for Victorian-era dress.
Occupation: Argus' personal, live-in assistant, as well as fire support while he is Hunting.
Personality: Vista was programmed by Argus to replicate, as faithfully as he was able, the late Evanna Ziihal. She displays an eerily human compassion and affection for the Hunter, a polite, upbeat manner around the other Vindicators and Argus' other friends, and a cold, methodical disdain for his enemies. Her internal reference database is kept top-of-the-line, with protocols for everything from armed and unarmed combat to appreciation of literature and music, as well as the degree of etiquette needed for any given social situation.
Equipment: Argus has spared no expense modifying Vista to perform to the fullest potential, and has significantly upgraded her combat and reflex matrices- in some cases illegally- to make her lethally effective at the drop of a hat. Her optical and aural systems are top-grade as well, as is her energy shielding and ballistic plating. A sensor weave, inlaid into her armor plating, serves as her sense of "touch," which is more sensitive than most Hunters would make a combat android's.
Armaments: U-271 Squad Automatic Weapon, 2x Enforcer gauntlet.
Ship: N/A. Vista either accompanies Argus in a rented shuttle, or remains on the Orbital Platform.
Family: N/A.
History: Like the entire V15 line, Vista was constructed near the end of the First Interplanetary War, when victory seemed certain for Terran forces. A factory mishap, however, resulted in most of the V15 line being inadvertently destroyed, with only a dozen models- eight "male" and four "female"- surviving. Vista was one such model, and was auctioned off to one Xan Rees, more commonly known as Argus, for one-point-seven million credits. Since then, she has been regarded as Argus' most prized posession- a fact he often reminds her of- and has been upgraded and doted upon at every chance the Hunter had. In response, Vista has been unconditionally supportive of Argus' career and decisions, and sympathetic to his possible case of post-traumatic stress that leads him to take such outlandish risks on behalf of a machine.
Roleplay Sample: (...Grr. I'm gonna do away with this field on the form, I swear... actually... yes.)
