Thisbe is a character in PARTIZAN and PALISADE. She is a synthetic person built to resemble the Hypha.

Appearance

She is a sleek, glassy and shiny robot in a muted blueish color based on the Hypha, or the Ashen. She has large, exaggerated legs like Drossel from Fireball Charming and a stylized face - cuter than the Hypha, looking more like a deer.

She is very tall — about two feet taller than the other party members, and has a scar across her face from when she was dug up. The scar was filled with clear polymer-like material. After meeting with the Sable Court, the scar has been filled with silver white opal memoria dust with slight hints of rainbow.

She has extremely intense ram's horns, like a watch spring's spiral but more conical.

In PALISADE, the screens on her hands have been scratched and clouded with wear, and she has a simple grey cloak.[1]

Personality

Drive

  • Find the farmers of her planet and return.[2]

Scars

History and Involvement

Thisbe is a "Servide" model robot created to work — she was meant to be a multi-purpose tool. The people who built her wanted to exploit the skills of the Hypha; she has abilities to sense and scan technology.

Thisbe's first operant was the Divine Space. During the Principality's first era of colonization, she was one of many units that were sent to colonize the Orion arm.

She was found by farmers, who dug her out of the ground on their farm. In the process, they damaged her face with their shovel, leaving a scar. She does not have any memories of her life from before that time.

Since she was too dangerous to live on a farm, she was purchased by a team of mercenaries, who later sold her to the current crew after most of them got killed in a mission. The team believed Thisbe was just a regular robot at first, but soon realized she was sentient, and a real part of the crew. She does her best to anticipate what people need of her.[2]

As of PALISADE episode 01, she has been in hiding for several years, due to her highly recognizable appearance and public knowledge as the mech sumo champion from the Summer Passage of Arms. She has remained part of Millenium Break during this time, but not worked directly with Brnine during this time. Also, a spark in her core has awakened magic within her frame, granting her arcane powers.

Relationships

Beliefs (Beam Saber)

  • Operant Valence seeks my obsolescence.[5]
  • Operant Broun will sell or trade me in the moment my usefulness is expended.[5]
  • Operant Valence's priorities are beyond my understanding.[6]
  • Operant Broun will protect me.[7]
  • Operant Broun lies to me because they believe I am a person.[8]
  • Operant Blue will not ask for help when she most needs it.[8]

Hooks (Armour Astir)

  • My presence is a liability to my operants.
  • I must strive at all times to demonstrate my utility.
  • Fighting is not my purpose, but there is nowhere else for me until the fighting is over.[1]

Gravity clocks (Armour Astir)

  • Brnine is like everybody else[9]; they are not a uniquely privileged operant[10]
  • I will tend to the Twill. They need to be shown care, and I am capable.[10]

Abilities

Beam Saber

  • Purpose-Built: Thisbe may take an extra dice when fulfilling the purpose Labor.
  • Connect the Dots: Thisbe can spend spark to ask an extra question while gathering information. (From the Memoria gifted to SBBR by the Sable Court.)
  • Internal Mechanism: Thisbe can declare a piece of gear as part of her body at the start of a mission.
  • Will Not Stop. Ever.: Thisbe can choose to stay in a scene after receiving a scar or vehicle breakdown, at the cost of harm to her or Mow.
  • Like Looking Into A Mirror: Thisbe can tell when someone is lying.
  • Tough as Nails: Thisbe takes less penalties from harm.
  • Super Charge: Thisbe may act with extreme strength or speed when pushing herself.

Mech

Thisbe's mech is called Mow. He is very big and has the build of a gorilla — top-heavy, with big arms. There's a little horn-like protrusion on the back that she hangs onto. He is kind of battered, but lovingly maintained; he's seen better days, but is washed and waxed.

Trivia

  • Thisbe's voice cast if PARTIZAN were adapted into live action is Gillian Anderson.
