Cheyenne "Shy" Jung

Though anything but shy, Shy's insulated upbringing and spectrum present personality has her empathizing more with robotics than other people. Brought up by two brilliant scientists who traveled from planet to planet has made her accustomed to interplanetary travel and introduced her to the world of programming and engineering. Her sharp intellect carried her through life when her deadpan charisma didn't, sardonic humor when emotion couldn't; when she found she couldn't understand sarcasm, she learned to wield it like a weapon or wear it like armor. One way or another, she made a name for herself as a premier military-engineer for her innovations in robotics and artificial intelligence. Even when a terrible accident robbed her of an arm and an eye, she personally designed the cybernetics that were constructed to replace them and let the neurologists figure out how to adapt them appropriately; the final design saw to it that the arm was covered in a skin-like latex and the eye was covered in a non-irritant gel. With the discovery of the Hollow Moon, she seeks to get her hands on some of this alien tech and see what makes it tick with the help of three personally-designed miniature drones. With any luck, maybe she could even get her hands on one of those Custodians, too.

I know what you're thinking. She must be a cyborg. That's where you're wrong. Yara is in fact completely human, but due to an event in her past she has been enhanced with cybernetic implants. These implants are in the form of small metal disks along the structure of her skeleton. These disks lay inches beneath her skin along her spine, inner and outer arms and legs, hips, and shoulders that are now infused with her muscle. Two even smaller disks lay implanted on each side of her brainstem.

These disks allow Yara to connect to a metal exoskeleton. This exoskeleton is sort of bulletproof in that it doesn't allow bullets to penetrate, allows Yara at least 10% enhanced speed and strength, and even has a few tricks hidden among the metal layers. The only exposed part of Yara's body in her suit is the top half of her head. Why not just wear a helmet? Stop asking questions. Yara in fact has an attachable helmet. when the helmet is placed, it forms a protective seal between the suit and visor. In order for Yara to continue to breathe in this seal, her suit has a reserve of oxygen and emits it through a respirator in her mask.

While Yara is equipped with this protective suit, she prefers to save it for special missions and risky exchanges. When she isn't clad in metal armor, she wears what any other fashionable mercenary would. Complete with a holster for a weapon and small fanny pack, and a knife holster hidden in her boot.

Not much is known about Yara's past except that she's hopped between mercenary ships for the past few years. She's done many odd jobs such as being a hired gun, bounty hunter, and has also been on a few missions to explore foreign planets and bring back precious resources. If you get her drunk enough, she'll even talk about her time with a group called The Maurader's.

Yara has come to the Thermopylae mostly for the reward, but she is also extremely interested in the Hollow Moon. In her days of exploring she has never seen anything like this self-sustaining, biodiverse little hunk of metal. While she is still focused on reaping the benefits that may present themselves, her inner passion to discover new things is certainly at play.
