Paradigm

Vitalism - the universe is best understood as a living creature, as is the earth, and humanity.

Metabolism - the essence of life is to transform energy and matter within oneself, to conquer entropy and grow greater step by step.

Rotes

Plant Food (Life 2, Prime 2) is Cleo's special formula super-fertiliser that can cause plants to grow almost instantly.

Hearty Meat Soup v1 (Life 2) always helps Cleo recover quickly after workouts.

Weird Fridge Hustle (Life 2, Matter 2) is what Cleo calls her escapades in making an at least edible meal out of almost any ingredients, even if the taste is a bit strange.

Grocery Sense (Life 1, Matter 1) helps pick out the actually best ingredients rather than the most expensive or best-looking.

The Zone (Time 1) is achieved sometimes during stressful busy nights. Cleo knows exactly what to do when to have every piece of the cooking process slot together perfectly.

Equipment

Patra

A small restaurant by Berkeley popular with some students. Has a constantly revolving set of innovative 'specials'. Employs some servers on and off, but cooking and management is the job of the proprietor Cleo. Constantly in debt.

Cleo lives in the rooms above the restaurant. It has a small yard that produces unusually delicious fruit & veg unusually quickly, and a basement with some of her ongoing experiments, as well as some workout gear and restaurant supplies. Rooftop solar helps pay the power bills.

(node 2, produces life resonance fruit tass)

Outfits

One nice dress for parties (not used for more than a year).

One decent suit from when she tried to get hired after dropping out.

One maid outfit from that theme night where she accidentally bought rather than rented.

Kitchen duds covered in stains, but clean.

Transport

Public.
