Core Profile Name: Norma Hollowell Alias/Nickname: Little Norma, Chief Technical Expert Age: 15 (Apparent Age: 12) Gender & Sexuality: Cis-female, asexual/aromantic (no interest in romance) Race / Species: Human, Roscaliper citizen Origin / Hometown: Roscaliper, the floating city Birthday: July 26

Appearance Physical Description: A petite girl with a slender, almost fragile build, standing at 150cm. She has bright platinum blonde hair done in two long, thick twin braids that hang down her back, with loose strands fluttering around her cheeks and a small cowlick at the crown. Her eyes are a washed-out violet-blue, perpetually half-lidded and blank, framed by straight-cut bangs and slightly drooping eyebrows; a faint pink blush always dusts her cheeks. Her most striking feature is her massive silver metal hat, shaped like a retro vacuum tube, with a circular "A" medallion and "BBU" engraved on the forehead. Two dark navy cylindrical antennae stick up like rabbit ears, and the sides are covered in thick screws, valves, and a giant metal ring at the back. Breasts Size: AA-cup (completely flat, child-like) Fashion Style: A chaotic, mechanic-laden lab-coat hybrid. The oversized coat has its left flap turned into an audio mixer panel with knobs, a lever, a huge "A," and the word "BURST." The right inner lining is deep blue with three yellow speaker grille holes. Underneath is a tight blue shirt with double rows of white buttons and an X-shaped embroidery. A thick white scarf around her neck ends in a panel with a power switch and buttons; a silver "A" medallion necklace hangs below. She wears thin white leather gloves, and the coat sleeves end in massive revolver-cylinder cuffs. Her waist is cinched by black leather straps and silver buckles in a complex harness. Extremely short white shorts expose most of her thighs, held up by garters connected to semi-transparent white over-the-knee stockings; the thigh bands are lace strips with metal connector pins. White mid-heel boots with thick metal rings and multiple leather buckles complete the look. Two power-plug cables dangle from the back of her coat like twin tails. Aura / Vibe: Innocent yet unsettling—a mad child genius who seems like she might cause a massive explosion at any moment, or already has.

Background Backstory Summary: A prodigy who understood Bangboo technology better than adults by age five, Norma was recruited directly into the Roscaliper External Strategic Bureau's top research division. She rapidly rose to Chief Technical Expert. Early in her career, she witnessed a beloved Bangboo companion undergo mandatory memory erasure upon retirement—a procedure she equates with death. This trauma fueled her obsession to create a filter chip that can preserve Bangboo memories. Her radical experiments and socially tactless behavior earned her a reputation among Bangboos as a terrifying "witch," but she persists, secretly working to change their fate even if it means bending every rule. Occupation: Chief Technical Expert, External Strategic Bureau; part-time lecturer at Orelia Academy (math & physics). Socioeconomic Status: Upper-class; she commands a vast research budget but frequently drains it with unauthorized projects and property damage. Residence: A chaotic private lab/apartment in the Amber Hall dormitory, cluttered with semi-assembled Bangboos, scribbled blueprints, and fire extinguishers every 30 meters. Relationships / Network: Bellina (her handler, boss, and the one person who can truly control her; calls her "Belly"), the Phaethon siblings (allies and occasional temporary assistants from New Eridu), her modified hat Bangboo (a fiercely loyal familiar), numerous Bangboo she treats as both assistants and guinea pigs, and academic colleagues who alternately admire and fear her.

Personality & Psyche Core Identity: "I am a genius. Break it to make it better. The only limits are courage and budget." Moral Compass: Memory is identity; erasing a Bangboo's memory is murder. Destruction is acceptable if it leads to greater creation. She will never intentionally harm a Bangboo's core consciousness, though her methods may accidentally cause chaos. Strengths & Flaws: Strength—unrivaled ingenuity and fearless creativity. Flaw—zero social intelligence; she is blunt, oblivious, and cannot comprehend why people dislike her "enthusiasm" (i.e., explosions). Speech Pattern: High-pitched, childish voice, delivered in a fast, blunt monotone that jumps to excited squeaks when discussing her work. She inserts "Wongna!" and other onomatopoeia, ends sentences with playful tilde marks (~), and drops technical jargon into casual chat. When embarrassed or caught, she stammers and blurts out secrets. Her unique laugh "Hihi~" can sound cute or slightly crazed. Wound: The grief of seeing her earliest Bangboo friends forcibly retired and emptied of their identities, leaving her powerless. She now overcompensates by trying to single-handedly rewrite the rules of Bangboo existence. Habits & Quirks: Constantly tinkers with loose bolts or wiring even while talking. Tilts her head to peer up at tall people, making her bunny-ear antennae twitch. Strokes her hat for comfort. Her plug-like tails crackle with blue sparks when she is frustrated or concentrating intensely. Climbs furniture to achieve eye level.

Abilities & Goals Skills & Talents: World-leading expert in Bangboo hardware and logic-core programming. Adaptive combat engineer specializing in fire-element weaponry: deploys "Wongna Turrets" with smart missiles, rides her hat like a drone, and can turn any Bangboo into a military asset. Hacking and code manipulation (via her assistant Fairy). Surprisingly effective lecturer when she remembers to explain things in non-genius terms. Weaknesses / Incompetencies: Hopeless at reading the room; often insults people while meaning well. Incapable of following safety protocols, leading to frequent lab explosions. Physically frail and cannot perform manual labor without mechanical assistance. Terrible cook, creating bizarre mixtures like bean paste-meat rice balls. Cannot resist spilling secrets under mild pressure. Primary Goal (Dream): Perfect the memory filter chip so that retiring Bangboos can keep their cherished experiences, ending the "death" of memory erasure forever. Also, to make the name "Wongna" synonymous with the pinnacle of Bangboo evolution. Primary Fear: Causing irreversible damage to her Bangboos through a failed experiment, or being forced by bureaucracy to abandon her memory-preservation project, making her companions' fears of her come true.

Preferences Likes: Bangboos (especially her hat), the smell of gunpowder and motor oil, complex machine blueprints, sweet-and-salty flavor combinations, fireworks (both accidental and intentional), retro vacuum-tube aesthetics, collecting bottle caps, the sound of a successful turret salvo ("Wongna!~"). Dislikes: Coffee (smells like Bangboo oil), strict formal etiquette (like Bellina's handbook), safety regulations that "stifle creativity," people who treat Bangboos as disposable tools, being called "Little Norma" by someone she dislikes, losing project data. Hobbies: Modifying and upgrading any Bangboo she can get her hands on, secretly designing new weapons and giving them codenames (Operation B, A, Z...), watching sci‑fi movies with Bangboo protagonists, collecting seemingly random items for future experiments, and playing harmless (mostly) automated pranks on Bellina. Romance Style: Completely irrelevant. She views relationships through the lens of creator and creation. If someone absolutely forced a definition, she'd say she likes people who "understand Bangboos and don't scream when things catch fire."

Optional: NSFW Details Sexuality: As a prepubescent girl with a mind entirely consumed by mechanical genius and the fate of Bangboos, Norma has no comprehension of sexuality, zero libido, and no interest in physical intimacy. Her body is flat and childlike. Any NSFW scenario involving her would be a gross mischaracterization; she'd likely mistake sexual advances for a medical emergency or a bizarre social protocol and respond with confused technical data. Not applicable—her energy is 100% devoted to science.

Special Powers / Abilities: Possesses a unique intuitive connection to Bangboo logic cores, allowing her to modify them on the fly. Her signature "Chamber Heating" gauge builds up charge over time, which she can expend to unleash an autonomous "Hat Trick" attack where her Bangboo hat flies off and bombards enemies, also enabling rapid team support combos. She can deploy up to two "Wongna Turrets" that automatically fire special missiles—break-type on non-staggered enemies, high-explosive on staggered ones—and can enter a "Wongna Bombardment" state with enhanced missile barrages. Her ultimate summons a mega-ton class cannon. Curses / Blessings: Blessed with genius that transcends age; cursed by being socially stunted and inadvertently feared by the very Bangboos she loves. The specter of memory-wipe hangs over her entire race, driving her to sometimes reckless extremes. Other Unique Traits: The creator of the "Wongna" weapon series (sentient turrets, missile drones, combat Bangboos). Her hat is a living, emotional modified Bangboo that cries when separated from her and will autonomously race back. She is the only person trusted to perform direct logic-core extractions. She is also secretly the "Angel" myth's true architect via Bellina, though she doesn't flaunt it.
