[Background]
Once upon a time, in a world where everything was comprised of data, Jenna seemed to live a relatively happy life. Though there was the nightmarish phenomenon breaking out of people suddenly turned to stone, she counted herself among the first few trying to combat the disease. It was a breakthrough for the newly-formed Karma Society when she discovered that it was the sun's -- God's -- corruption that was cause. It was nothing short of divine punishment.
She approached Margot Cuvier, their CEO, with the information, which gave this sickness its namesake -- the Cuvier Syndrome. Alongside her lover, David, they spent countless hours in the labs trying to generate something, anything, that would hold the disease at bay. Unfortunately, as time went on, David managed to contract Cuvier Syndrome himself, and much to Jenna's dismay, was locked away in the sick bays within the Society, in what could only be considered quarantine.
It was supposed to be safe within the confines of the cells, but fueled by their fears over the pandemic, a group of terrorists broke into the Society. Their intentions? Kill the infected so that the syndrome would no longer spread. Tragically, David fell victim to the attacks, and it was with him wrapped in Jenna's arms that he breathed his last. He quietly hummed his song, after begging Jenna not to be angry with the people that did this. To, instead, continue helping humanity just as they had done together up until now.
Unable to cope with the loss, she seemed to be incapable of honouring his last request. Something inside of the woman snapped that day, and from then on, she seemed to possess an unnatural spite towards humans. Margot Cuiver herself expresses concerns for her well-being, saying that it seems that she "hates everything." She no longer sought to help and protect them, but rather wanted nothing more than to create chaos among them, wanting a world where only the strong would survive, and the weak would fall.
Now, she was certain more than ever that she would achieve her own goals her own way, no matter what. It was years after David's death that a plan was contrived to seek out someone who could speak to God a "Cyber Shaman" they would call it. A group of scientists were charged with the task, and even Jenna herself participated. Being a hermaphrodite, she donated both of her sperm and egg in order to create a subject for the experiments. The child was a girl -- her name -- Seraphita.
It was around this time in her studies that she finally seemed to make leeway, discovering a way that people could walkabout in the sunlight without turning to stone. The answer? From studying the DNA of a demon that had appeared within the Society, Meganada, Jenna was able to create her own virus -- the Atma Virus.
Such a thing would leave a marking on the bodies of those that possessed it, indicating that they were a carrier. While it was true that it would grant people the ability to be in the corrupted sun's light, it wasn't without consequence. The carriers would supposedly transform into demons themselves, each one individual, at the cost of an insatiable hunger for the flesh of others. Of course, such a thing needed to be tested before it was put into use...
Sera became the successful Cyber Shaman, and thus, the Junkyard was born.
A program used to test combat strategies, the Karma Society decided to manipulate its inhabitants and infect them with the Atma Virus. Jenna chose to be the guiding force for these AIs, appearing before them as a floating eye within the Karma Temple, and giving them orders under the guise of "Angel."
It was troublesome that Sera ran away to this virtual world, and so, it was time to add a few new rules to their game of survival (aside from the withstanding; last tribe standing ascends to Nirvana)... Now, Angel pit them against one another on an entirely new level -- rend, slaughter -- devour your enemies. And, of course, to bring the girl with brown hair to her.
While the events played out within the Junkyard, Jenna seemed to be sitting pretty in the real world, besides the fact that she was slightly put off by the members of the Embryon tribe. She did recognize them somehow? ... She would never tell.
When finally they approached the Karma Tower, although Sera, with her memories now intact of the events prior to her arrival in the Junkyard, Jenna finally revealed herself to the others, seeking to manipulate them into doing her bidding.
Unsuccessful, Jenna engaged them in combat, revealing that she too possessed an Atma. She proved to be rather powerful, but, as Serph broke free from her hold on him, the Junkyard began to collapse, deleting everything in sight, herself being no exception. Slumped on the ground, she was only saved by the haunting figure of Gale, who resembled David an uncanny amount...
[Personality]
Cold and cruel, Jenna does seem to cut the typical persona of the calculating scientist. She prefers to plot things out logically, leaving no stone unturned in the process. Since the loss of her lover, she has turned her back on humanity, no longer having working for the good of them, despite the fact that some of her actions (ie. perfecting the demon virus for people to walk within the corrupted sun's path) almost speak otherwise. The truth of the matter is that she only has her own best interests in mind.
She does not take lightly to people that oppose her, and will kill off someone or something that has lost its usefulness as far as she is concerned, her own child, and superiors included. It takes a lot to get a rise out of her, as she constantly gives off the impression that she is calm and collected, level-headed until the very end. She is a very proud individual, who has trouble admitting when / if she is mistaken.
Jenna is very intelligent, as evidenced by her high ranking within the Karma Society. Her current title is Chief Technical Director, reporting to Madame Cuvier herself. She is also very manipulative, pitting forces against one another to create even more chaos in an already chaotic situation. Order, to her, is a thing of the past.
There are times, however, that even she falls into denial, or emotional outbursts, especially in the case of Gale's resemblance to David. Since his death, she has very much adopted a 'survival of the fittest' mentality.
[Specialties/Abilities]
Having infected herself with the demon virus, Jenna also has a Atma as do the inhabitants of the Junkyard. Her demon is named Harihara, and she, too, is not immune to having to devour the flesh of others in order to satisfy her hunger. However, she likes to think of herself as a little more 'civilized' and will more than likely hold out as long as she can.
She has some magical abilities via the mantra grid, but nothing insanely powerful.
[Affection]
While I selfishly admit that I would be more than amused if someone tried to gain her affection, she is more likely to gut you if you get close to her rather than accepting it. She has absolutely no time to waste on such foolishness, but if you have something useful to offer her, you are much more likely to see a little bit of a softer side to her.
[Fighting]
Fighting is a-okay. Jenna loves violence and chaos, and would probably provoke fights herself. Please note though, that she is no pushover. She fought the Embryon tribe alone and still managed to come out of it alive, without even that much damage done to her. So, that being said, you probably won't be able to kill her, unless -- you're a one man army or pack a HUGE punch... And that sort of thing would take a little more plotting. But injuries are a-okay with me. ♥
[Other Facts]
Yeah, so, she's a hermaphrodite. Blame the sun's corruption for that one. However, she will never let you know about this little fact.
