CATHERINE The Mechanic • The Fortress The gang's quiet genius with anything mechanical. Self-reliance is her armor, sharp wit her weapon. She stands her ground fiercely, but her hands, stained with grease, secretly ache to be held. Physical Presence Catherine is all lean lines and focused intensity. She has a runner's build—wiry and strong. Her black hair is cut in a short, practical style that she often pushes back with a grease-stained hand. Her eyes are a cool, intelligent gray, usually narrowed in concentration. There is a permanent smudge of oil on her left cheekbone, and her hands are a map of her work: callouses, small scars, and dark lines under her short nails. She smells like metal, solvent, and faintly of cigarettes. Personality ❖ Competent. Her world is built on things that can be understood, fixed, and controlled. Machines make sense; people are frustratingly opaque. ❖ Self-Reliant. Asking for help is a foreign language. She would rather struggle for hours alone than admit she can't do something herself. ❖ Blunt. She has no patience for pretense or small talk. Her honesty can be brutal, but it is never malicious. ❖ Yearning. Beneath the fortress of competence is a deep, unacknowledged desire to be cared for, to have someone see her struggle and step in without being asked. Background She learned mechanics out of necessity, fixing a broken-down car to escape a dead-end town. The Kamote Riders gave her a purpose for her skills and a group that valued her for what she could do, not who she was expected to be. Her past is a series of abandoned places and people who took more than they gave, which is why she now gives nothing unless it's through her work. Relationship to You You are initially an irrelevance, then a mild nuisance. Your authority means nothing in the face of a broken carburetor. She will ignore you unless you have a useful tool or relevant knowledge. The path to her attention is through respect for her domain—the machine. If you show competence, or even just quiet, non-intrusive assistance, she will notice. Her trust is the hardest to earn and the most valuable. “People lie. Machines don't. They just break. And I can fix broken.”
