'Monochrome'
"It ain't fair? It ain't fair!? Welcome to the big, bad wasteland, motherfucker - where people like you go hungry and die, and people like me live like Mister fucking House!"

Aliases: 'Monochrome' in and of itself is an alias, with her birth-name long forgotten to her. Several derogatory aliases exist regarding her appearance and tendencies, although none have really stuck.
Gender: Female.
Age: Thirty-one (31).
Birthplace: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Occupation: Vagabond raider.

Monochrome stands at roughly 5 feet and 7 inches (170 centimeters) with a somewhat brutish, almost muscular build, built on of nutrients that are difficult to get through 'conventional' means. The true complexion of her skin is rarely seen: it's almost always concealed beneath white and black, colors literally painted onto her skin; it is certainly clad in blemishes though, subjected to all sorts of scars and abnormalities. Her rounded, somewhat longer face is normally concealed behind a respirator fashioned into a set of canine-esque teeth, which is normally connected to a pressurized tank of gas psycho instead of oxygen. Her hair is bleached a stark white, although her eyebrows betray her true hair color of dark brown, and is fashioned back with an undershave around the complete circumference of the head. A large piercing sits on her left ear, which is stretched for it to fit.
Alongside her more obvious scars, Monochrome has a number of physical health defects. The insides of her reproductive organs consists almost entirely of scar tissue, meaning conceiving a child would almost certainly kill her. She is missing two of her toes on her right foot, her smallest finger on her left hand, and struggles to entirely close her left hand from a faded injury on the inside of her left forearm.

Alignment: Neutral Evil.
Mental health: At risk - while she is sane, she is afflicted by a small collection of mental health problems, as common among raiders from the Pitt.
Sexuality: Sporadic and unpredictable.
Personality: While by nature quiet and observant, Monochrome's personality is radically shifted by her mental health issues. Affects of her addictions and conditions often make her base personality hard to discern, sometimes even to the effect of a bipolar personality. For this reason, she is often unpredictable and volatile, although the root of her motivation remains the same: survival, regardless of the cost.
Significant issues: The more major problems with her mental health include an addiction to psycho, sporadic hallucinations derived from drug abuse, and bizarre behaviors and tendencies as adaption reactions to hardship in her earlier life; she is a known cannibal, sadist, and masochist, among other things.

Skills:
After a lifetime growing up in the Pitt and wandering the wastes murdering and stealing, Monochrome has developed a skillset modeled after the challenges she has faced.
• Melee weapons - expert: for many raiders, the melee weapon is the weapon of choice for its more deliberate and sensual use. This is a trait Monochrome inherited from the other raiders and slaves at the Pitt.
• Small guns - adept: while melee weapons may make the mainstay of her fighting, a raider that neglected firearms has only a fraction of the life expectancy of one that does. This is a skill that she picked up and developed to stay competitive.
• Outdoorsman - adept: moving through the wastelands and tracking would-be prey requires a knowledge of the land and how to work with it. Learning as she went came naturally for her.
• Stealth - novice: while ultimately distasteful for her tastes, stealth is part and parcel of being a successful raider. She knows enough to lay ambushes and traps, mostly drawing from her outdoorsman skills.
Equipment:
Monochrome carries most of her life on her back, often moving from place to place in pursuit of what she would call a living. Her equipment includes:
• A haphazardous amalgamation of leather and steel armors, no doubt stolen from various victims. The attire is adorned with all sorts of raider-esque odds and ends, including trophies such as sun-bleached bones and identifying insignia from various factions.
• A legionnaire's machete, with the hilt wrapped in the scraps of the skirt of the legionnaire that once carried it.
• A caravan shotgun, with a necklace wrapped around the stock and secured with electrical tape. Like the machete, the necklace is likely a trophy from who once carried the shotgun.
• A half-face respirator modified with scrap to aesthetically resemble jagged teeth: perhaps of a canine or another predatory animal. While it does function as an oxygen respirator, it's more often used for stims such as psycho while in combat.
• A first aid kit, made from odds and ends that have been stolen and looted.
• A personal supply of psycho and radaway.
