Hecusa
Hecusa is a young, mischievous mechanic and a protagonist in our campaign.
Physical Description
Hecusa is a pale skinned, nineteen year old human with an uncannily perfect complexion. Their stark white hair and bright red eyes are probably the most notable feature of their appearance being the byproducts of their inception as an artificial human. Their hair is wild and looks unmaintained, though it remains relatively tangle-free. They have a waifish build with rough hands and absolutely horrendous posture.
Their usual outfit consists of a pair of heavy boots and a pair of green overalls, and sometimes leather gloves covered in splotches of black oil.
Personality
Hecusa is troublesome and mischievous little imp, having very little impulse control and ill-developed social skills. They typically act fairly blithe and naive, and have a very simple perspective on things: if they want to do something, they'll simply do it. This leads to them pulling pranks, sticking their nose into matters that don't concern them, and having a rather selfish or self-serving streak. Due to their upbringing in Scraphovel where they were surrounded by outcasts, thieves, and pirates, they have a slightly skewed view on right and wrong, thinking nothing of breaking rules or using underhanded methods to get what they want. Despite this, Hecusa is a kind soul down to the very being. They're unmistakably selfish and will do whatever they want when they want without regard, it just so happens that what they want, more often than not, is to help someone in need.
Hecusa is gifted mechanically, having a natural aptitude for tinkering and absorbing knowledge, though that natural aptitude is somewhat hampered by a lack of formal education.
They speak rather crudely with a slightly prideful tone.

Character Questions
Arcanist
- Where do your powers come from? Are they a gift from your bloodline?
- Hecusa's powers come both from their nature as an artificial human created specifically to channel spirits and from their kind personality. Those aware of the former would think its solely due to that affinity, however the Arcana would not be as eager to aid them if not for their warm, welcoming soul.
- Have you ever communicated with an Arcanum, or are they silent and distant?
- At first Hecusa was unaware of their sole Arcanum, Semblance. As far as they knew, whenever they were in trouble they would black out only to wake up to see their situation solved. As time progressed, they gradually became aware of and began communicating with Semblance, sometimes able to see and converse with an apparition of the Arcanum taking the form of their appearance while possessed, though manifesting as such is quite draining for the spirit, so it's rarely used. (Think. Yugi and Yami Yugi) Other Arcana would behave similarly as they grow to trust Hecusa more.
