The Mechanical Nano who Talks to Machines

Player: Aeon
Tier: 1
Nano Origin: Ports and Plugs
Nano Connection: Lucilla acquired her initial cybernetic upgrades and knowledge of nano-sorcery in the temple of an obscure god. It's priests and worshippers, though small in number, respected her talent and potential, and remember her fondly.
Foci Origin: While searching some ancient ruins for valuable artifacts, Lucilla was abducted and experimented on by a machine intelligence, which modified her body with a variety of neuro-cybernetic enhancements, before mysteriously letting her go. She failed to return to her cult afterwards, and they currently believe her to be dead.
Foci Connection: Zermanikos' cybernetic parts emit a frequency that is irritating to intelligent machines, causing them to react badly toward him.
Appearance: Lucilla is a tall, slender young woman with pale, greyish skin and long, dark hair, clad in a hooded, rust-colored robe. A number of brassy, baroque-looking cybernetic implants adorn her body, and close examination occasionally reveals a faint tracery of silvery wires – like metallic veins - shimmering just beneath her skin. She keeps her hair woven into braided dreadlocks, threaded with thin gold wire, and covers her hands with fingerless, elbow-length gloves. When using nano-sorcery, her dark eyes often flicker with electric blue light.
