Personality

Bold and vivacious, Intira is someone people tend to get along with fairly well. She's quick to cheer, slow to anger, and fun to be around - all with a habit of dragging (willing) friends out of their shells.

It's easy to go no further - easier still to let oneself be put off by some measure of her personality. Be it the flirtatiousness or the habit of positing 'ship ideas' at the very person in question, Intira's whimsy can sometimes prove difficult to deal with. She's unapologetic for her habits, but definitely apologetic for anyone she actually offends. It's all supposed to be in good fun, after all.

Deeper down, though, there's a lot that goes unspoken. It can be seen in rare moments of vulnerability, usually where she thinks no one is watching - behind the smiles and carefree words is a quiet seriousness, bordering on brooding. Where it comes from is anyone's guess, and if she's caught indulging, she'll often laugh it off and attribute it to some vague, barely believable situation.

Abilities/Skills

Computing

In a world as advanced as hers, some skill in computing is almost a guarantee really. Intira isn't the greatest genius when it comes to coding or anything, but she knows her way around both computers and the cyberworld - the latter perhaps more solidly than the former.

Bartending

Something she picked up in learning to stand on her own, Intira's a pretty good bartender. She's got a good memory for drinks and a keen sense of flavour in relation to them.

Hand-to-hand Combat

While not her preference, Intira grew up on the streets - learning how to fight with anything available was a necessity, and learning to fight when nothing was available was almost a bigger one still. She's not exceptionally tall, but she's solidly built and pretty adept at using someone's momentum to get the better of them.

Art

Specifically, Intira is adept at sculpting and character design. She uses this both to make a little money and to tease or reward friends with. In addition, she's quite good at latte art, having found in her time learning various things that it's something that calms her considerably.

BlossomBurst

Intira's avatar is known as BlossomBurst, or more fully scattered capsule BlossomBurst, and brings with it its own set of skills. BlossomBurst itself is an avatar shaped somewhat like a Hindu goddess - beautiful and feminine, possessing multiple arms and a serene grace. The avatar's abilities as a Knight type avatar (well-balanced between attack and defense) lean more toward defensive capabilities when used, and include the following.

• Containment Bubbles: Really the core of BlossomBursts's abilities, its containment bubbles are similar in use to force cages and the like. They're capable of sustaining prolonged pressure or damage without faltering, as long as Intira and/or her avatar have the physical strength and concentration to maintain them. These bubbles can be used to help or hinder, providing protection to allies or hindrance to enemies. Generally, allies can pass through the bubbles, while enemies cannot, and they provide normal access to air and the like. This can, however, be coded to deny air to an individual - something Intira doesn't use as an operator within GRAFT, as GRAFT's no-kill, no-torture policy is extremely important. They can be moved and positioned with their inhabitants safely, and she herself can move while contained in her own bubble.
• Hacking: Though seldom necessary, BlossomBurst carries the same ability to interface with and hack cyberdata. Typically, this is used to return terrain to its normal circumstances in her case.
• Damage Mitigation: BlossomBurst is equipped with damage nullifying equipment to better suit its position as a support avatar, and as a result, its lowered combat ability is bolstered by a stronger pool of 'health' and hardiness against certain kinds of attacks.
• Body-to-avatar Damage Transfer: As with all avatars, when not fully Immersed, Intira's physical body takes only 1:10 damage compared to any damage BlossomBurst takes in Cyberspace. Intira doesn't fully immerse, so the 1:6 damage comparison doesn't apply.

EntraDermaLinks (EDLs)

Intira has a triangular cluster of EntraDermaLinks on her left shoulder. These allow Intira to interface with any tech that has physical or wireless interface capability. They also serve as storage for her avatar data and provide her with her ability to immerse with said avatar, and open storage for the containment and transfer of data.

History

Not much is known about Intira's background. Despite the fact that she, like almost all people born in this world, has a microchip to transmit relevant data about her birth and given name, little has been recorded about the progression of her life.

In reality, Intira falls under the broad umbrella of those who fell between the cracks of normal society, living on the streets for most of her life and off the grid of normal lifestyles. Having avoided any unsavoury or illegal activities, by the time she was picked up by GRAFT, she'd become an enigma whose history was known to only those who witnessed it.
