Human Female. 5'7". White-Gold Hair, Blue Eyes[Colored Contacts] and a somewhat slim figure. When one looks at Francesca their first thoughts would probably be elegant and graceful, at least if they are human. Her hair is shiny but rather flat and straight which she keeps at shoulder length, enough to easily style for any given occasion but short enough to not get in the way. Her face is rather oval, with sharp eyes and a bit of a large forehead which she tries to keep covered with neatly trimmed bangs. Her skin is almost milk white, which when combined with her hair almost makes her look albino but not quite that level.

Francesca Lunarius is a product of the darker side of humanity. Raised in a secret lab run by the H.A.R.C. or the Human Advancement Research Council, Francesca was a designer baby from birth and was genetically manipulated in order to try and unlock human potential. For Francesca their focus was the human brain, the experiments and procedures were designed in order to increase her neural pathways and make her able to activate more of her brain at a time than normal. Their hope was to create a superior human capable of leading humanity into the vast reaches of the universe and to ensure humanity's superiority to all races.

For eight years, she was raised in the underground lab under Armstrong Memorial City on the moon. Subjected to an endless barrage of tests and an intense learning program, Francesca learned a lot more than your average child and had a higher IQ than normal, though by no means a genius in any respect much to H.A.R.C.'s disappointment. The experiments were cut short however when information about the secret lab was leaked to the press. Before any true investigation could be conduced however, the lab was completely scrubbed and Francesca was dumped at an orphanage on the other side of the moon.

Other than being a bit more advanced than most of her peers, Francesca was pretty much normal except for her unnatural eye color, which she quickly learned to hide with colored contact lenses, aside from that though Francesca didn't seem to have trauma or physical problems from her time at the lab. Around 12 years of age, the side effects from the experiments started to manifest themselves in the initial form of intense headaches. Soon it was discovered that a strange growth had formed in her brain which had integrated itself onto her brain stem which made it very risky to operate on. After some monitoring, they discovered the growth had stopped growing and with medication they could help with her intense headaches.

Shortly after this episode, Francesca discovered she had the uncanny ability to read other people and if she concentrated she could even sense a person's emotions, kind of like how certain people could see sounds as colors. H.A.R.C.'s experiments had in fact worked to an extent, a fact they would have been very interested in knowing about if they had the opportunity to keep an eye on their subjects. Francesca had been made into a very low-level telepath, though the side-effects were quite unpleasant.

A bit frightened of her new power, Francesca kept her abilities under wraps but also wasn't about to let her new 'gifts' go to waste. Seeing as she had a slight advantage over others when it came to reading people, she decided to train to become a diplomat as her skills would be quite useful in negotiations. With those thoughts in mind, she went to join the diplomatic corp and later entered the space program so she would have the opportunity to interact with other species and test her limits.

As a person Francesca is a somewhat reserved individual when not on the job, she likes music and often practices the piano and violin in her spare time. She doesn't tend to open herself up to others much, partially due to her past which has been effectively scrubbed from the history books by H.A.R.C. and is afraid what might happen if such information became public as the organization is still very much active in the background. She knows how to fake it though to an art form when she enters full diplomatic mode.

When she concentrates, Francesca has the ability to read a person's emotions which is picked up by her brain as specific signals. She can 'see' a person's emotions like a person who sees specific sounds and music as colors. The signals are best picked up from other humans and the less human like another race is the harder it is to effectively sense their emotional state, also the individual must be only a few meters away for her brain to pick up the signals.

While her sixth sense is useful she is also very knowledgeable and is a diplomat to the core. She has the ability to read the room and adapt to the unfolding circumstances around her. Her ability to de-escalate a situation and try to reach a compromise is one of her most important skills. She also has the ability to quickly learn about new cultures and customs which is very useful when contacting a fairly unknown race.

While her endurance is fine she is not very strong and can easily be overpowered by an assailant, she tries to make up for this weakness of body by learning how to use a variety of small arms and even blades. While her medication helps, sometimes she gets intense headaches at random, which can ruin her concentration and make her unable to read emotions. Thankfully these episodes are usually quite short but as it is impossible to judge when they appear, can mess crucial moments up with bad timing.
