Miranax “Mira” Ref
(backstory under the cut)
Prior to the war, Mira lived in the outlands with Cliff and a small colony of programs, mostly ISOs and a few strays, of which she is neither. Her purpose was as an inventor of sorts, creating technology within the grid to optimize life for the programs living there. However, the coding of her render was flawed; sections were unstable, flickering in and out of existence, with some sections, such as her arm, gone entirely.
This didn’t stop her from serving out her purpose and she was able to make rudimentary stabilizers to prevent the glitching and basic prosthetics for the missing pieces. However, she was still an imperfect program in a system bent on perfection. Though her mind and abilities were completely intact, the programs around her saw only her body and she was frequently barred from being able to live up to her true potential.
That is, until she met Mark, an ISO who’d come in from the outlands to restock supplies. Though he wasn’t originally looking for one, there was no denying the colony needed a tech and she needed something new to do. And there she found it, a technical playground of sorts where she was free to live out her purpose to the highest extent, developing code to make the hard life of the wasteland a little easier for the colonists, as well as work on some personal projects on the side.
She was actually the one who found Cliff, wandering aimlessly in the outlands with no idea of who or where he was, and brought him back to live with the colonists. They quickly developed a familial bond. When the Purge struck, the two of them found a new calling, with Cliff working undercover in the occupation to transport ISOs out of the city, and Mira using the newly developed disguising tech built into her stabilizers to pass unnoticed in the city as she located and brought the fugitives to Cliff for safe passage.
