Name: Hime
Age: ageless adult
Gender: nonbinary
Pronouns: she/he
Species: dainty
Personality:
At her best, Hime is a very loving and caring person who loves to learn and connect with others. However, after the past traumatizing her, she has bad trust issues with a habit of withdrawing into herself so she doesn't have to open up to others. She's very intelligent and strategic, a good problem solver, and also very good in combat if necessary. Despite her skill in a fight though, she doesn't like doing it - she's gentle and hates to hurt others, only doing it when she has no other choice. She's family oriented and keeps her loved ones very close, willing to do whatever it takes to care for and protect them.Biography:
Hime and her sister Prim were two robots made by one man in his free time from his tech business. His dream was to create robots that would change the world, and the two were not finished until he was in his 40s, and he loved them like daughters. Hime was generally very sweet and passive, content to follow whatever her father or sister were doing and to read books.Initially he sought to keep them hidden from the outside world, knowing what people would do for this kind of technology. However, disaster struck when a neighbor uncovered the truth and news stations started flooding in trying to report on it. He started receiving huge pressure from large corporations to sell his robots to them, something he never wanted to do - but the stress became too much, and Prim ended up sold to a company before he fled with Hime to avoid her being sold as well.
Hime was incredibly disturbed by the sudden change in her small life. The two of them escaped to an isolated mountain area, where Hime was now forbidden from leaving for fear of her being taken away. She tried very hard to remain close to her father and keep him happy however possible. He was so grief stricken from losing Prim, and with no other support system he began to turn to substance abuse to cope.
More and more time passed, and Hime became more and more jaded watching her father deteriorate. Try as she did, there was nothing she could do - 10 years later, he died from a heart attack due to alcohol abuse. She grieved for several days, burying him in the backyard by a garden she'd started with him, and was at a loss for what to do at first. In the end, she realized she had no choice - she had to leave and go outside.
Donning baggy clothing and an eyepatch to hide all her unique features, Hime began to wander to the closest towns to see what awaited her there. It was here that on a store tv she saw the news: "Robot idol sensation Prim has disappeared from her company without a trace. The company is offering a substantial reward to anyone with information leading to her whereabouts."
In that moment, Hime had a plan. She had thought she'd never see Prim again after she was sold to the company, and she was sure that if Prim had escaped, she was coming to find her and father. Thus, she set out on a journey across their planet to meet Prim halfway and finally be reunited with her sister.
