Name: Ratnajyoti or Jyoti, Gupta
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Job: Scientist
Personality: Jyoti is very enthusiastic but sometimes can get out-of-hand. She has a huge ego, and loves to be complimented, especially when it's about something she made. She's very talkative and likes to lead in a conversation, being loud and silly. On the other hand is very silent and serious when motivated or concentrating on something of importance. She likes people, using them as an emotional support. She's actually very shy around those of the male gender, unless they can keep up with what she's talking about, she'll forget that they're a guy that she's so busy talking. She can have a bit of an attitude if she's told what to do impolitely; Jyoti never makes eye contact unless it is absolutely 100% necessary, she always keeps her distance from everyone, get to close and she'll zap you; she is a bit of a sadist....
Biography: Born from a family of medical and scientific geniuses, Jyoti was a child protege. She grew up being tutored in multiple fields, such as bio engineering, medical engineering, etc. To the outside world, she was super human, an incarnation of something greater, just like the rest of her family. Although those she thought was her family never seemed to recognize or even pay any attention to her. She went to schools and colleges learning in the same room with people five or even ten times her age, never making any friends. At age 14 she was one of the few select students aiding in the development of an AI that would bring about a new age. Despite being exposed to a toxic mixture of praise and spite, Jyoti strove to become the #1 like her relatives before her. In a shady act between jealous students and scientists, a huge portion of her research was stolen from her to use toward the program. She didn't bother to come out about it because what was stolen from her was incomplete formulas, and no one would care that someone like her was wronged.
When things went south with the AI program, she couldn't be blamed because the thieves would have to admit their crime, and she was alright with them bearing the weight of the failure. Of course she came to blame herself when the devastation began, when hundreds upon thousands died and the shining utopia was lost. When the survivors created a militia, she joined to develop specialized weaponry to combat the mechanical threat... But we all know how that story goes. With only a hand full of survivors, Jyoti goes on with the intention to live long enough to see the world of man reborn into the utopia that once was.
