Athena McDermott

History
Athena started life as an AI made by xp194 for use in one of his earlier models of Power Armour. However, after a battle that heavily damaged both the suit and the AI core, she went 'rampant,' hijacked one of xp194's old biological research tanks, made herself a body and 'went organic' as she put it.

After a rocky start, she got used to her new body and metahuman powers and eventually started dating xp194.

A few weeks into her life, a mishap with a magical artifact gave her cat ears and a tail. While at first confused and frightened by the change, she decided eventually to keep them, at the price of being plagued by catlike instincts. While not as pronounced, she claims they still have some impact on her behaviour. (For instance, she /will/ chase laser pointers. And then make you regret trying.)

Later Athena got an S2 Organ and then after that an Angel Core implanted "To see what'd happen." This resulted in her becoming a universe's Leliel equivalent. After some misunderstandings, she and Izzy Izanami, her new 'brother' sided with Humanity and held off a combined attack from all the angels at once, with the help of the NERV EVA units. Still is in contact with 'her' Arael.

Also a Water Elemental thanks to Jacklyn's rampant piece of Yggdrasil. Does sometimes react badly with her cat side.

Is now married to xp194 and Emily Merkin. Has had 6 children, Jennifer, Lydia, Lorelei, Kasumi, Samuel and Ezio
