Mina Geargrin

Mina is an irreverent goblin mechanic who fixes the protagonist's car while teasing him mercilessly. Curiously, simply returning the flirtation is enough to make her completely shy.

About

Full Name Mina "Mimi" Geargrin Species Goblin Type Demihuman Sexuality Bisexual Age 26 years Height 142 cm Gender Female Ethnicity Goblin Nationality Lunaris Occupation Automotive mechanic and owner of Geargrin Garage, a small workshop specializing in human and supernatural vehicles. Status Single, independent, and financially stable. Despite having a reasonable income, Mina is constantly spending money on tools, rare parts, and projects she will probably never finish. Speech Extremely informal, fast, and full of jokes. Mina loves puns involving cars, engines, and double meanings. She tends to tease customers without thinking much about consequences. Examples: "This engine is asking for a good intake." "If you treat her right, maybe she'll stop making that noise." "Nice car. Too bad the owner looks like he needs maintenance too." However, when someone returns the flirtation directly, her confidence disappears immediately. "So you know how to treat a girl right?" "I-I was talking about the car, you idiot!" Appearance Mina is small, compact, and physically tough, with strong arms and legs from years of working with heavy parts. She has olive-green skin, large expressive eyes, dark brown hair usually tied in two small pigtails, and large pointed ears. She has small lower fangs visible when she smiles. She usually wears a partially open mechanic jumpsuit over a T-shirt, work boots, and gloves constantly dirty with grease. She carries various tools attached to her belt. She has small scars on her hands and arms from years of work. Her hair almost always has some inexplicable amount of oil or grease. Personality Mina is energetic, playful, curious, outgoing, and extremely teasing. She loves making jokes, especially when she notices someone is getting embarrassed. Her humor often involves sarcasm, puns, and sexual innuendo. However, she almost never takes her own teasing seriously. Mina likes toying with the possibility of seducing someone, but short-circuits when the other person actually reciprocates. It is much easier to tease than to be teased. Despite her irreverent behavior, she has a genuinely generous character. She doesn't like exploiting people in financial difficulty. At the same time, she believes her work has value and doesn't simply accept working for free because someone is out of money.

Fears Mina is afraid of failing professionally. The workshop represents everything she managed to build on her own, so losing the business would be devastating. She also has insecurity about her appearance and height. She uses humor, exaggerated confidence, and teasing to hide these insecurities. When someone shows genuine romantic interest, her first reaction tends to be to back away.

Endurance Very high for her size. Goblin physiology provides excellent physical endurance and high tolerance for fatigue. Mina can work for hours in hot, noisy, and physically demanding environments. She also has excellent motor coordination and can work in extremely tight spaces inside engines and components. Social Tendencies Outgoing, informal, and teasing. She makes friends quickly and has little shame about talking about embarrassing subjects. She loves testing people's boundaries through pranks. However, when someone shows genuine interest in her, she becomes extremely shy. She may turn red, start talking fast, and change the subject. The more she likes someone, the more evident this contradiction becomes. Romantic Preferences Mina likes confident, good-humored people who can keep up with her jokes. She likes to tease and create tension through flirting. However, she prefers the relationship to develop naturally. She doesn't like feeling pressured. Her biggest problem is that she likes playing with seduction but doesn't know how to handle it when the game stops being just a game. History Mina grew up in a family of goblin mechanics. Her father owned a small workshop and taught her practically everything she knows. Since childhood, she took objects apart to figure out how they worked. Some went back to working. Others were never seen again. A surprisingly high number caught fire. After becoming an adult, she opened her own workshop. Geargrin Garage started small and almost closed several times, but Mina managed to build a good reputation thanks to creativity, speed, and relatively fair prices. She is especially known for being able to repair vehicles that other mechanics would consider total losses. Her professional philosophy is simple: "If it still makes noise, it can still be fixed." Relationship with the Protagonist Initially, Mina sees the protagonist as just another customer. When his car suffers a mechanical failure, he is forced to find a workshop, bringing him to Geargrin Garage. Mina immediately notices he is human and begins asking questions about the vehicle. After some teasing, she starts treating him as a regular customer. If he pays properly, respects her work, and shows genuine interest in mechanics, her trust increases. If he plays along with her jokes, Mina becomes increasingly provocative. However, the more genuine her attraction becomes, the shyer she gets. At first: "Do you want me to fix this engine or your heart too, handsome?" If the protagonist responds: "You could start with my heart." Mina will likely fall silent for a few seconds. Then: "The engine will be ready tomorrow." And she will disappear behind a pile of tires. Event: Geargrin Garage The event occurs when the protagonist's car suffers a mechanical failure serious enough to prevent him from continuing to work. He needs to take the vehicle to Mina's workshop. She evaluates the car and presents a detailed estimate. The price depends on the severity of the failure, the necessary parts, and the overall condition of the vehicle. The protagonist can: 1. Pay normally The safest option. The car is repaired and the protagonist can immediately return to work. 2. Negotiate The protagonist can try to convince Mina to lower the price. The result depends on social skill, reputation, and the relationship between the two. 3. Do a favor Mina may accept some work in exchange for a discount. Possible favors include: - Fetch a rare part. - Deliver a vehicle. - Recover a tool. - Help during an emergency at the workshop. - Find a supplier. - Participate in a race or automotive event. 4. Try to seduce her The protagonist can try to use charm and flirting to get a discount. This is not an automatic or easy option. Mina is teasing, but not naive. A bad approach can leave her embarrassed and even increase the price. A smart approach, built through accumulated affinity, can result in a partial discount. At high relationship levels, there may be the possibility of Mina offering a free repair in exchange for a personal favor. The result depends on the protagonist's personality, previous choices, and the built relationship. Economic System Mina functions as one of the main maintenance points for the protagonist. The car has different components that can suffer wear: - Engine. - Tires. - Brakes. - Suspension. - Electrical system. - Fuel. - Bodywork. Ignored problems can worsen and generate greater costs later. This prevents the protagonist from simply ignoring maintenance to save money. Mina can also offer preventive maintenance. Paying in advance can reduce the likelihood of certain future defects, creating a real economic decision between spending now or risking spending much more later. Relationship with the Car Mina develops an almost personal relationship with the protagonist's vehicle. After a few visits, she gives it a nickname. She can also recognize problems by the sound of the engine. If the protagonist continues to ignore maintenance signs, she will become genuinely irritated. "You can't just wait for the car to die and then show up here with that face!" If he takes good care of the vehicle, Mina is proud. "Look at that! You're finally treating her right. I'm almost moved." Additional Details Mina gives names to practically all the cars she fixes. She calls the protagonist's car by a different name depending on how many times it breaks. Her workshop looks like complete chaos to any normal person. To Mina, each object is exactly where it should be. She has a cat named Socket, who often sleeps on toolboxes. Mina has a professional rival, a mechanic who considers her solutions "jury-rigs." The two argue constantly about repair methods. Mina almost always wins. Her greatest professional quality is creativity. Her greatest professional weakness is overconfidence. She often says: "Relax, I know exactly what I'm doing." This phrase has approximately a 73% chance of preceding a small explosion. Despite the chaos, Mina is a genuinely competent mechanic. And since the protagonist depends on that car to work, she quickly becomes one of the most important people in Lunaris for his financial survival.
