WARNING CONTAINS SPOILERS!!!
Name: Mellie Alexandria Cassidy
Nickname: Ellie
Gender: Female
Age: 35
Appearance:
Hair: (Natural color: blond) Currently peppermint pink, shoulder length in high ponytail
Eyes: Light blue
Skin: Fair, lightly tanned
Height: 5'8”
The left side of her body to about the waist, is mostly artificial skin and tissue. The replicators destroyed a major portion of her side including her arm, a portion of her back and most of her left breast. Also damaged a good chunk of her ribs. Fortunately they didn't damage any internal organs or her lungs.
Her left arm is a combination of bio-mechanical replacements and artificial tissues mimicking a natural arm fairly well. She does get some sense of feeling through it, though limited. While the arm can't be removed, the artificial skin covering it can. Without a long sleeved shirt, the scars and poor meshing of the arm and natural skin is rather obvious. The artificial skin on the arm, only covers it to the shoulder. The damage on her torso is mostly covered by skin grafts with the exception of her chest area.
Her chest has a large chunk of artificial skin and tissue to replace her missing breast and part of her side. They can not be removed without risk of her bleeding out as they are fused into the skin grafts. Scarring is pronounced and obvious due to the poor blending of flesh and artificial tissues.
While it mimics the texture and feel of human skin, the artificial tissue is quite pale, almost white and does not match skin color in the slightest. It's fairly responsive to changes in temperature and may be warm or cool, but rarely reflects the body temperature of the person, rather reflecting the environmental temperature.
History:
Occupation: Personnel of the Star-Gate program, in the Department of Research and Development. The Star-Gate program is part of United Planetary Alliance. The 2ic of the Alpha Squadron and is also a member of the Earth Delegation.
Personality:
Other info: Can't cook to save her life. Can sing fairly well. Has PTSD, after being attacked (nearly killed) by replicators. Exceedingly good at computer programing, but unable to do much with the *outdated* computers of the 1990's.
Current damage as of *Observations and conversations Part 3*
Has managed to pop a connection in her artificial arm/shoulder. Easy fix with the right tools.
Has had one minor panic attack. Major PTSD flashback to come?

History:
Occupation: Personnel of the Star-Gate program, in the Department of Research and Development. The Star-Gate program is part of United Planetary Alliance. A member of Alpha Squadron, ranking just below Ellie, and acts as security/guard for the Earth Delegation.

Other info: Can't carry a tune in a bucket. Can cook a little. Very good with mechanics, bio mechanics and has been trained to do minor repairs to Ellie's arm. Also minor medical training.
Current damage as of *Observations and conversations Part 3* Three cracked ribs on the left side and pulled muscles in the knee of the right leg.
