Biography
Aika Makida, more commonly known as "The Blue Orchid", is a full-conversion cyborg from 24th century Earth. Originally designed by Crey as part of the Paragon Protectors program intended to combat other superheroes, Makida turned against her 24th century teammates during a mission to protect a time machine. Her core programming took over, forcing her teammates to defend themselves from her. They managed to force her through the active time machine, sending her back to the early 21st century. The temporal shift also served to wipe her memory and her core programming. She woke up in early 21st century Seattle, thinking she was human. She was still aware of her powers and identity as The Blue Orchid, but there was little else for her to go on.
In Seattle, she became an associate member of The Emerald Order, a team of heroes dedicated to protecting the city. Their foes typically included the Yakuza and several street gangs, and often meta-villians. She eventually moved to Paragon City where she started a new branch of the order with new recruits from the growing metahuman population of the city.
Personalty
Aika thinks of herself as human. Her skin is soft and warm and when she looks in the mirror, she sees a human, not a machine. She retains the ability to love and be intimate, but knowing her true nature often keeps her from getting close with anyone, except those that she knows could in fact handle the truth. Aika was not even aware that she was a cyborg until damage sustained in a fight revealed her cybernetic parts beneath torn synthetic skin.
In combat, she rarely speaks. She maintains a level of cold professionalism and will not stop until she has achieved victory. This spills over to detective work and is a virtual bloodhound when it comes to tracking villains or other criminals.
While she is based in Seattle, Makida hates staying in one place and will regularly travel. Comrades have labeled her with wanderlust, but she’d say it’s just a matter of curiosity that she wants to see the world.
She is very protective of her friends and will place herself in danger in order to protect her friends, even if they can protect themselves.
Dr. Machina
Belinda Machina (RP Name)
Nickname: 'Doc'
Level: 35
Archetype: Mastermind
Origin: Technology
Primary Power: Robotics

Biography
Belinda Machina was born and raised in Paragon City’s upscale Founder’s Falls district and attended the Paragon City University where she received her undergraduate’s degree in sciences. With an interest in eventually working for Crey Industries, she chose a major in robotics and a minor in cybernetics. As part of her PhD, she developed programming sets that allowed for wireless control of several networked robots, and AI routines that would allow them to anticipate certain orders and work independently of their controller.
After graduating, Belinda returned to Paragon City and sought employment with Crey, but Crey was not interested in her qualifications. She then sought employment with the Freedom Phalanx, who expressed interest in her qualifications, but was unwilling to give her the level of important she desired.
Growing distraught over a series of failed job interviews, Belinda began turning towards crime in order to make ends meet. Using a homemade robot armed with black market weapons, she pulled a bank heist Steel Canyon that brought her face to face with the Vindicators. The confrontation ended with Belinda being sent to the Zig. During her time in the Zig, MIT revoked her PhD.
During the Arachnos incursion in to the Zig, Belinda was freed and was informed by an Arachnos pilot that the Fortunata Mistress Kalinda wished to meet with her. Upon meeting with Kalinda, the Fortunata provided Belinda with the funding to build new robots in exchange for taking care of a few serpents for her on Mercy Island. Using her new funding, she purchased a small factory and supplies that allowed her to begin producing robot minions and gave her the ability to research new enhancements for her minions. She continued her life of crime in the Rouge Isles, often working freelance for Arachnos and a few other groups. As her reputation grew, however, she found that she did not have to search for work, the work often came to her.
