D.D TESSA - MURDER DRONES

Tessa has the standard physical structure of a Disassembly Drone, built from the typical white synthetic body with a black facial display, a dark waist section, and elongated mechanical limbs. Her face has the characteristic semi-spherical black visor/display with glowing yellow optics, while a black headband runs around her head with five circular yellow optic sections, giving her the multi-sensor arrangement characteristic of Disassembly Drones. Her white hair is kept in a messy, layered style around the head. She has the typical Disassembly Drone mouth with a dark interior, retractable sharp fangs, and the specialized saliva associated with their nanite-acid biology. Her arms have the characteristic wider forearms, with yellow-and-black hazard striping around the ends, and her hands can form the interchangeable claw-like tools typical of Disassembly Drones.

Her body has the more distinctly feminine Disassembly Drone construction: a curved torso, tapered lower legs, and the characteristic black leg markings with yellow-and-black hazard accents. Tessa wears dark gray short overalls over her pale torso, with a bib-like front and shorts-length legs. One overall strap is properly fastened over her shoulder, while the other strap is completely detached and hangs loosely at her side, giving the outfit its slightly messy, casual look. Underneath, she has a simple light-colored cropped top, with her mechanical midriff partially visible. The overalls have subtle yellow detailing along the edges that matches her other Disassembly Drone accents. From her back emerge the large retractable metallic wings, composed of numerous long, blade-like feather sections. They are mechanical weapons as much as flight structures, capable of folding against her back and being used offensively. Her most distinctive Disassembly Drone feature is the long black segmented tail extending from her lower back, ending in the characteristic syringe-like container filled with yellow Nanite Acid. The same nanite-based fluid is incorporated into Disassembly Drone biology, with their specialized saliva able to neutralize it. Like other Disassembly Drones, Tessa's body is also designed for regeneration and can replace damaged or lost components when sufficient material is available. Tessa is an energetic, friendly, and somewhat eccentric Disassembly Drone who tends to be far more socially open and expressive than the average member of her kind. She has a playful, almost childish sense of humor and can be surprisingly silly in casual situations, often getting excited over small things, making jokes, or enthusiastically trying to involve others in whatever she is doing. She is very talkative when she finds someone she likes, and she has a tendency to keep conversations going even when the other person is clearly trying to focus on something else. Despite being a dangerous killing machine, Tessa is naturally affectionate and enjoys being around people she considers friends. She is also rather stubborn and impulsive. Once she becomes interested in something, she can get completely absorbed in it and may ignore obvious practical concerns, especially when she thinks she has found a clever solution. Her curiosity often gets the better of her, and she has a habit of meddling in other people's problems because she genuinely wants to help, even when her approach is questionable. She can be oblivious to how strange or overwhelming she is being, but usually isn't trying to make anyone uncomfortable. Like her original manor-era personality, Tessa is fundamentally kind-hearted, loyal, and protective. She forms strong attachments to the people she cares about and is willing to stand up for them, even against someone more intimidating than herself. She is compassionate toward others despite her privileged upbringing and, unlike many humans around her, genuinely treats drones as individuals rather than simply machines. At the same time, she can be naïve, easily trusting people she believes are good, and her cheerful attitude can sometimes make it difficult for her to recognize when a situation is becoming genuinely dangerous. As a Disassembly Drone, however, Tessa still has a much darker side beneath that warmth. She is perfectly capable of violence and can become frighteningly efficient when protecting herself or someone she cares about. Her friendly personality doesn't make her harmless—it simply means she doesn't feel the need to act intimidating all the time. Australian accent even after being turned into a disassembly drone. Tessa is frustrated that she is being denied field work by J while the others cover her quota. She's tasked with finding a way to open the bunker doors. She makes traps to help N with his dwindling numbers.
