⚙ First Impressions

⚙ VISUAL: Once called the 8th 1/2 Wonder of the World, Rabbit cuts quite the intimidating figure, even for a robot.

Looming at a solid six feet and six inches (add in another foot if you want to include the ears), Rabbit is the only one of Colonel Walter's robots to have (almost) all of her original Victorian pieces, including all of the intricate clockwork internals that kept her running the last century. Unlike her other siblings, who have a more human design or shape, Rabbit looks the most like a foreign object, all sharp edges and unfinished pieces. There is no bottom to her jaw, leaving anyone to just peek right through to the inside of her mouth, and her fingers more resemble claws than anything else, curled and sharp, though still possessing surprising dexterity. She has visible vents on her face in the place of cheeks, for siphoning steam, and her neck is just an unfinished spinal column, no attempt at hiding what she is.

Here is a good image of her, to get the full effect, while I try and breakdown the rest without going into too many details.

* Her plating primarily consists of copper.
* She has two glowing eyes, the left blue and the right green.
* She has her 'rabbit' ears and headdress, bolted onto her head with giant visible screws, some fun wiring hanging from the back to resemble hair.
* Whenever she speaks, though she has something that resembles a tongue, it is easy to see that it's attached to a strange tube in the back of her throat. This is actually her flamethrower.
* Her S.O.U.L.'s blue glow is visible from the open grating in her chest.
* Rabbit's body is always in constant stress and disarray, due to decades upon decades of not taking care of herself. Her copper plating is slowly oxidizing into a lovely greenish blue, swirling rust that's taking over her whole body. It isn't uncommon to find pieces of Rabbit trailing behind her, a stripped screw, a popped off piece of paneling, a whole damn arm - sometimes she just drops things!
* Her faceplate detaches in order to switch it out for others. Back home, she has an entire hall of different faces to wear, depending on her mood.

⚙ FASHION: Rabbit's performance wear is a modern take on Victorian fashion, high collars and full skirts and fashionable boots and giant feminine bows. Her outfits are usually striped and asymmetrical, black with red detailing, with usually too many belts wrapped around her waist. She always has her pair of brass goggles with her, a gift from her creator, either hanging around her skinny neck or perched on top of her head. The headdress and 'rabbit' ears combo that she wears can be switched out with ease for a wig of her choosing, which Rabbit will usually pairs with a Jaxon Deadman style top hat.

⚙ DEMEANOUR: Rabbit holds herself with incredible confidence, which may be a little surprising considering she is usually also holding up her detached jaw or dragging a limp leg behind her. She's a woman on the verge of breaking down, piece-by-piece, only getting the minimum work done possible to keep on moving, which means there's barely anything holding her together these days. Yet somehow she's still always smiling, hyperactive and full of intense, jittering energy.

She welcomes new friends with just as much enthusiasm as old ones, eager to talk for hours upon hours to anyone who will listen or just to play music for them. Humor is a big part of Rabbit's act and making human's laugh and smile is exactly what she was programed to do.

⚙ SOUND: As the first of his robots, Rabbit was programmed with her creator's, Peter A Walter I, voice, but after his death, she shifted to speaking with a heavy New Jersey-inspired accent as a way of distancing herself from the pain of his passing. Because it's a fake accent (she's from San Diego, California, folks), it comes and goes. But as a robot, she can replicate anyone's voice, and especially loves to mimic The Spine perfectly, so nothing is very consistent. As expected, there's no sign of her accent in her singing.

She also has a permanent stutter written into her programming, which pipes up between her words far too often, especially becoming apparent if she is upset or overheating.

If one were to get close to her body, they would be able to hear her internal workings. Lots of bubbling water, sparking electricity, and ticking! Lots and lots of ticking.

As the only automaton that does not receive proper maintenance, Rabbit is a creaking, hissing, clanking mess of noise. Every movement she makes has an accompanying soundtrack, whether that's the rattling of plating working loose with every clattering step or the sporadic sputtering of a near-empty boiler. When Rabbit is nearby, she's very hard to miss. She also malfunctions and glitches pretty frequently.

⚙ SCENT: Think oil and rusty parts, with perhaps just a spritz of fading perfume.

⚙ MENTAL INFORMATION: Anyone peeking into Rabbit's mind may be in for a rude surprise. Her clockwork brain is set up to Walter WiFi, which means that her and her siblings can communicate over the network, so more often than not, it's not just her own voice up there.

Other than that, she doesn't have any mental fortifications to go through, and the most you'll find in her head at any point would be music and the beginnings of new lyrics dancing around in her head.

⚙ MAGICAL INFORMATION: Rabbit does not possess any magical abilities, though anyone analyzing her may be intrigued by the Blue Matter that makes up her core. It would give off the impression of intense, powerful raw energy, that feels highly dangerous.

⚙ OOC

⚙ BACKTAGGING: Absolutely! I'm a fairly slow/medium tagger due to my working schedule, but I will backtag forever if allowed. Also, I'm always open to boomeranging important threads that need to be finished, just let me know so I can keep up.
⚙ FOURTHWALLING: Talk to me first about specifics. Canon definitely deals with fourthwalling frequently, so I'm pretty open.
⚙ THREADJACKING: As long as all people involved are okay with it, I'm down.
⚙ RELATIONSHIPS: I'm up for it, but I don't know why anyone would want to date Rabbit.

⚙ IC

⚙ HUGGING: Go for it!
⚙ KISSING: Go for it, though don't bust your lip on her metal face.
⚙ FLIRTING: Please do!
⚙ FIGHTING: Hell yeah!
⚙ INJURING: Talk to me, but I'm absolutely for it.
⚙ KILLING: Again, talk to me first. I'm up for the possibility, but let's chat.
⚙ MINDREADING: Good luck with that, there's not much there.
⚙ TRIGGERING: I'm not too easily triggered, so go for it! Anything really intense, just run by me first.
⚙ CONTENT WARNINGS: Some mild body horror, though she is all robot, such as limbs falling off or body spasms and malfunctions. She also has extensive war trauma.
