Appearance
A slender, well built young woman with fair skin and freckles on her face. She has very long red hair usually done up in a long ponytail that reaches down to her butt. When in a fight, she gets the same violent, unhinged glare her father was known for. Otherwise when in a good mood she generally has a confident smile on her face.
Personality
Explosive. Explosive laughter, explosive anger, explosive sadness. Varia is a girl of extremes. She tends to judge people harshly, but treats them very kindly unless they do something dangerous or harmful. At the end of the day she thinks she’s better than most people, but she rarely will come out and say it.
Background
Unable to have a kid the regular way, Shaila and Shinshi improvised. With help from Jach, they designed a daughter and built her from scratch, and so Variation Six was born. Soon it became clear that she had developed aspirations to be a Big Damn Hero. She often got into egotistical arguments with her father over whose skills were most impressive, Shaila often trying to mediate. Eventually Varia declared that her parents were stifling her, and left to make her own name.

Powers & Merits
Searing Fist: Varia can heat her right hand up to extremely high temperatures, burning those she touches. Palm Torch: Varia can project the heat in her right hand from a hole that opens in her palm, spewing out melee range flames. Electric Touch: Varia can electrify her left hand, able to stun those she touches. Grasshopper: Varia has powered legs that enable her to jump very high. Prehensile Hair: Varia can manipulate her hair as if it were another arm, able to grab things with it.
Eidetic Memory (2): Having a "photographic" memory, you can accurately recall any sight or sound with a successful Alertness roll. The higher you roll the more you remember. You also rarely forget -anything-.
Iron Will (5): You cannot be mind-controlled easily, and getting you to surrender is borderline impossible. When magical (or other) mind-control is attempted on you, both roll and you get a +3 bonus to your roll. It's possible to do it, but you'll fight it with every fiber of your being, and will not stay in thrall very long.
Unique Items
Varia uses a three-sword style of combat.
The Edge Upon Which God Shall Be Cut: This pretentiously named katana with a red-tinted blade links to Varia’s body when she wields it, granting the blade extra properties. She wields The Edge with her right hand.
- Searing Blade: The Edge is set on fire, burning anyone and anything it cuts.
The Doom That Haunts The Bravest of Men: This katana with a black-edged blade links to Varia’s body when she wields it, granting the blade extra properties. She wields The Doom with her left hand.
- Lightning Blade: The Doom becomes electrified, stunning those it cuts.
The Barber: This underwhelmingly named katana with an exceptionally shiny blade links to Varia's hair when she wields it. She wields The Barber with her hair.
- I Whip My Hair Back and Forth: Varia can swing her sword in wide arcs around her using her hair. It isn’t nearly as fast as Whirling Blades of Death, but it does have further reach.
- Whirling Blades of Death Version 2: Inspired by her Great Uncle Galvan’s move. Varia spins like a deadly top with all three blades, becoming a deadly battlefield hazard.
- Disarm Immune: Due to the katanas’ hilts linking with her hands and hair, it’s very hard to disarm Varia.
Items Of Note
Rollerblades: Varia’s prized rollerblades, black with red wheels. If the terrain allows, she enjoys wearing these into combat for greater mobility.
Weaknesses & Flaws
Malicious Code: Varia is vulnerable to being hijacked in various ways. A knowledgeable techie provided with the right opportunity could reprogram her, set up a remote connection to her eyesight, take control of her speaking, or various other high tech mischief.
Electromagnetic Vulnerability: As a machine, Varia is vulnerable to being disrupted and even outright short circuited by EMPs, concentrated bursts of electricity, and powerful magnets.
Prideful: Varia has far too much pride in her own abilities. She’s very easy to lure into a fight as a result.
Disturbing Mannerism (2): You have a habit or character trait which is peculiar, gross, or annoying. You may not even be aware of it-but everyone else is. Penalties of social rolls are increased at the GM's discretion. Deep Sleeper (1): Waking up is hard; getting you moving is hard enough (-2 on all rolls to wake up), getting you comprehending what's going on after you're up isn't much easier (Your rolls in the next few minutes.. up to 30 minutes.. are at -1.)
Sterile (1): You are incapable of reproducing. If you are in a society which expects you to have children, this is a flaw.
Dark Secret (1): There's something about you which you don't want people to know, and it would be very bad if they did (or at least you think it would be).
Bound (5): You owe some nut, angel, demon, spirit, whatever, and you owe him BIG. This is a Very Bad Thing.
