Diana Vin-Belle is a brilliant engineer/inventor/roboticist, but she also has leanings toward criminality - specifically stealing technology - new and ancient - to further her own technological aspirations.
Diana's species doesn't have legs - her planet of origin is covered in water so she has to make use of prosthetic legs to get about in non-aqueous environments, also her wet suit prevents her skin from drying out. Her robotic exosuit - Beak - also helps her get around and cause mischief.
My original intent for Diana has always been for her to have prosthetic legs, but I've had moments of uncertainty about that - hence the version with organic legs here.
Though Diana is intended to be the main villain/rival in just one of my story projects - I've actually found her to be one of those characters who can fit into a lot of different projects/story ideas. I can see myself writing stories a lot of stories for her in the future - ones where she may very well be the main/lead character.
