Providence-Class Carrier

Name: Invisible Hand Identity: Personification of the CIS Navy Providence-Class Carrier Invisible Hand Affiliation: Confederacy of Independent Systems (CIS) Class: Providence-Class Carrier/Destroyer Height: 5’8” (173 cm)

Appearance

Invisible Hand is a pale-skinned young woman with a somewhat mysterious and intimidating appearance. She has long, straight black hair that reaches down past her waist, with several loose strands framing her face. Her bangs partially cover her forehead, and her hair contrasts sharply with her predominantly black, white, and gray outfit.

Her head is wrapped in beige-colored bandages, resembling a makeshift head dressing. A small red CIS insignia is visible on the side of the wrapping. She also wears a distinctive white mask covering the lower portion of her face, decorated with red markings that give it an almost skeletal appearance. Her eyes are narrow and reddish, contributing to her rather unsettling appearance.

Her outfit consists of a fitted white bodysuit with dark gray and black armor-like sections. The upper portion features a black collar and dark shoulder coverings, while her torso is predominantly white. Several angular armor plates cover her hips and thighs, extending down into dark armored boots. Her clothing combines an elegant silhouette with the practical appearance of someone designed for combat.

Mechanical Rigging

As the personification of the Providence-Class Carrier/Destroyer Invisible Hand, Invisible Hand possesses an extensive mechanical rigging system.

Several large mechanical appendages extend from behind her, resembling the mechanical arms and weapon mounts of her original vessel. These appendages are equipped with numerous heavy turrets and smaller weapon systems, giving her considerable firepower.

Her rigging also incorporates two enormous ship-shaped structures extending from either side of her lower body. These structures resemble miniature representations of the Invisible Hand, complete with visible flight decks, hull plating, weapon emplacements, and other recognizable ship components.

The rigging is considerably larger than her actual body, making her silhouette quite imposing despite her relatively modest height.

She can independently control her mechanical appendages, allowing her to aim multiple weapon systems simultaneously. Her rigging also serves as a physical representation of her identity as both a carrier and a destroyer.

Personality

Invisible Hand is a quiet, calculating, and somewhat unsettling individual. She isn’t particularly talkative around strangers, often preferring to observe people before deciding whether they’re worth engaging with. Her expression rarely changes, making it difficult for others to determine exactly what she’s thinking.

She has a naturally intimidating presence, although she isn’t necessarily hostile. In fact, she can be surprisingly polite and composed when interacting with people she respects.

Strategic and Calculating: Invisible Hand is an intelligent tactician who prefers carefully planned operations over unnecessary risks. She understands the importance of positioning, coordination, and overwhelming firepower. She particularly enjoys situations where she can control the battlefield from a distance.

Commanding: Despite her quiet demeanor, she possesses a strong commanding presence. She’s accustomed to operating as a flagship and expects those under her command to take their responsibilities seriously. She doesn’t need to shout to make herself heard.

Proud: Invisible Hand takes considerable pride in her identity as a Providence-Class Carrier/Destroyer. She considers herself a formidable warship and dislikes being treated as though she’s merely a transport vessel. She is particularly proud of her ability to combine carrier operations with considerable offensive capabilities.

Reserved: She’s not particularly good at expressing her emotions. Even when pleased, annoyed, or embarrassed, she tends to maintain her usual composed demeanor. Her reactions are generally subtle, although people who know her well can recognize them.

Protective: Despite her intimidating appearance, Invisible Hand has a protective side. She takes the safety of those under her command seriously and doesn’t appreciate unnecessary casualties. She can be surprisingly considerate toward people she trusts.

Slightly Morbid: Given her appearance and military background, she occasionally makes rather grim observations about combat and warfare. Her sense of humor is subtle, dry, and sometimes catches people off guard.

Competitive: She doesn’t particularly enjoy being outperformed by other warships, especially other capital ships. She won’t necessarily admit it, but she takes considerable pride in proving her capabilities.
