Pembroke

Strype

Synthetic Lynx, Female, 32, 5'6", formerly male organic lynx
Profession: "Ship Flipper" Voidcraft Restoration Specialist

Pembroke is my latest character, and a close friend of Borden and yet-to-be-debuted Pond. They work in the ship-flipping business, finding old, abandoned ships and wrecks floating around in space or in junkyards, and restoring, rebuilding, and fixing them up and selling them off for profit. Pem's body is geared to assist her in her job, with holo-tools built into her forearms and hands, microthrusters (under the hexagonal "spots"), multi-band visual systems, magnetic soles on her feet, forward lamps, high-powered cutting lasers and powerful comm systems in her horns, and high-end acoustic sensors (though that last one is partially because she REALLY enjoys her music)

Outside of work she's really into music and bowls in a league (Owning an entire rack of personalized bowling balls of her own, and has an entire storage unit dedicated to her trophy collection). In general she's fairly low-intensity unless she's getting competitive, in which case the fire in her eyes can be felt by everyone in the room/bowling alley. She's an adept manager when working with small teams on projects, and is generally considered the "leader" of her little gang of friends

Also, Pembroke is trans. Originally she was a fairly normal, organic boy who didnt feel like she fit in her own skin. Thankfully, being the far-future, and her not minding the differences between synthetic and organic, Pem's transition only took a couple weeks as her brain was converted to synthetic via nanomachines (with a TON of gear hooked to her old meaty form to support both) and transplanted into the synthetic body shes in now. (I'm considering doing a short comic to show what she went through at a later date). The process didn't go entirely without a hitch, though, as she still craves organic foods on top of the normal metal-and-plastic foods a synthetic usually eats. She soon had a small digestive system and a custom bionic tongue installed to let her snack on her old favorites.

So yeah, that's Pembroke as she is now. I owe most of the details of her design to Missmab whom, when I mentioned wanting to make another character but not knowing what to do, provided me with an adoptable she'd purchased from chakisuu and wasn't using for anything. So, I kept her colours, converted her into a synthetic, and built from there. I look forward to drawing her more (and of course, getting art from others of her, too)

    I am so glad you are uploading on her as well, If it helps, there is a plug in for chrome users that allows you to cross-post content from FA to this site. The User Name and coding for this site is a little wierd to get used to as well but yeah! Glad to see you here Strype.

    As per the Comic, that would be flipping amazing! More amazing Strype content!
