Maintaining a hyper-feminine and glamorous aesthetic, Glissara’s features carry a tall, elegant facial structure with pronounced vertical flow, brought about through a delicate balance of sharp and soft elements. Pertaining to the former element, her jawline is narrow and delicately sculpted, lacking any squareness or width. It arcs steeply downward from her ears toward a finely tapered chin. Her chin is pointed and petite, but not weak. It extends just enough to balance her lips without creating a strong horizontal plane. Contrasting the precise sharpness of her tapered jawline and pointed chin, the mandibular angle of her jaw is extremely soft—practically absent—emphasizing the heart-shaped taper of her face and avoiding any jaw prominence.

Continuing these heart-shaped proportions, her forehead is tall and is slightly wider than the lower face. The soft elements of her features also encompass her high and prominent cheekbones, which lend them a lifted, statuesque contour. They provide the widest point of her face below the forehead. Her cheekbones have smooth yet distinct curve beneath the eyes leading toward the jaw, presenting a tight midface with a slightly hollowed lower cheek area. Around her malar region, the cheeks push forward more than the lower jaw, reinforcing a heart-shaped facial profile.

Her lips are one of her most distinct features, which are full, soft, and plump, featuring an exaggerated pout that dominates the lower half of her face. They protrude outward in a rounded, almost balloon-like fashion, lending her appearance a sensual edge.

Glissara’s hair is a mint green in color, nearly matching her skin in tone but with a slightly darker, metallic sheen. It is voluminous and sculpted in a beehive style with long, flowing side strands and straight bangs. Her skin tone is a smooth turquoise-blue—a notably common coloration for Terrelian Jango Jumpers. She has almond-shaped eyes, with vivid, lilac-hued irises that set a gentle contrast with her skin. Below these, her nose is quite small and narrow, with a refined natural contour.

Her neck is long and swan-like, but is not fragile owing to its smooth musculature. She has distinct, clean clavicle lines that are quite notably defined.

BIOGRAPHY​

Cast into existence from a Ny'thazûl Genesis Cradle, NV-0007 is one of a small number of Pursuit Zeros created for service in the Immortal Legions as part of a unit of elite pursuit killers and special forces interception specialists. Marked for the Shatter Vectors from the moment of her conception within the Cradle, NV-0007's gestating consciousness was infused with a battery of cognitive protocols, reflex patterns, and memory engrams, meant to form her into an hyper-lethal precision-deployed living kinetic weapon from the moment she drew her first breath.

Almost immediately after her decanting from the Cradle, NV-0007 was placed into the Shatter Vector training course—a live conditioning program meant to translate her innate programming into practical battlefield lethality. Although she emerged from her Cradle quiet and hyper-focused, it was during this period that her identity began to develop. Taking on the name Glissara, she quickly established herself as one of the most disciplined and surgical Vectors in her training cohort, setting records in a number of marksmanship and precision blade-throwing drills.

After the completion of her training, Glissara was placed into Apex Ten Squadron—a support formation of the 1st Shatter Vector Echelon.

It was here that her service as a Shatter Vector in the Immortal Legions would truly begin.

TRAITS​

Imprinted Training:

• Harmonic Induction Conditioning
  
  • “Gestation occurred in exo-womb bioreactor clusters, towering cylindrical vats lined in black alchemical alloy, where amniotic nutrient fluids were infused with Sith rune-seals and Force resonance harmonics. These harmonic inductions, orchestrated by Shadow Mind neuromancers, imbued developing strand-casts with subconscious devotional conditioning, forging intrinsic reverence for the Dyarchy before consciousness emerged.” (The Kainate - Cloning and Strand-Casting)
• Cognitive Imprinting Protocols - Pursuit Zero Biotype Specific
  
  • “Upon decanting, strand-casts underwent Cognitive Imprinting Protocols (CIPs). Their neural architectures were flooded with memory engrams containing language, basic operational knowledge, doctrinal catechisms, and martial or technical skill packages relevant to their caste role. This process bypassed conventional learning curves, producing fully functional soldiers, overseers, or technician-castes within days of emergence.” (The Kainate - Cloning and Strand-Casting)
  • Primary Pursuit Pathways
    
    • Neural circuits for sprinting, leaping, and directional correction are reinforced before live motor skill learning even begins. Cerebellar and vestibular centers are mapped with pre-calibrated balance algorithms, so upon emergence, the subject moves like an elite sprinter.
  • Combat Orientation Conditioning
    
    • Threat-response pathways are prioritized and strengthened, ensuring the reaction to movement, gunfire, or sudden noise is immediate aggression. The FAE/I-02 Hypernervous Reaction System is loaded with a baseline response library—predictive micro-timing of how to adjust posture, aim, and strike mid-motion.
  • Instinctive Vector Prediction
    
    • Imprinted with a subconscious understanding of trajectory math, allowing the subject to feel angles, distances, and optimal pursuit lines without thinking.
  • Basic Knowledge Suite
    
    • Includes language, map-reading, fieldcraft, vehicle operation, equipment recognition, and education equivalent to secondary school.
  • Pursuit and Vector Combat Memory Engram Package
    
    • Hardwired conditioning in pursuit mechanics (sprinting, leaping, maintaining momentum through complex terrain), vector prediction (instinctive calculation of optimal paths and interception angles), and combat reflexes (weapon use, martial arts, and kills integrated seamlessly into high-speed movement).
  • Immortal Legions Doctrinal Catechism
  • Engram Loop Conditioning
    
    • Pursuit Simulations
      
      • Engrams contain memories of chase sequences through forests, cities, ship corridors, and other environments, calibrating reflexes even before real muscle movement. Targets appear at random intervals, training the subject to anticipate and react to evasive maneuvers.
    • Environmental Vector Familiarization
      
      • Engrams familiarize the subject to the sensations of airflow, echoes, and spatial pressure, priming airflow-sensitive proprioception.
    • Kill-Conditioning Engram Loops
      
      • Engrams impart thousands of close-range execution scenarios into memory, normalizing precise, efficient killing as an automatic instinct.
    • “Blind” Kill Scenarios
      
      • Engrams carry memory traces of fighting in dark, airflow-sensitive environments, teaching the subject to feel the opponent’s position rather than rely on sight.
    • Momentum Combat Conditioning
      
      • Engram conditioning in momentum trains the subject to never stall or fight standing still; even a killing blow must lead into another step forward.
  • Reflex Calibration
    
    • Balance and Agility Conditioning
      
      • Vestibular system is stimulated with artificial gravity shifts, adapting inner-ear stabilizers to microgravity conditions.
    • Muscle Pre-Activation Protocols
      
      • Electric micro-pulses are cycled through muscle groups, teaching tendon recoil timing before the subject ever makes a real leap.
    • Reaction Time Hardwiring
      
      • Sudden auditory/visual neuro-pings trigger preconscious defensive responses. The nervous system is conditioned to fire before conscious thought.

Military Training:

• Shatter Vector Training Course
  
  • Biomechanical Calibration and Kinetics
    
    • Engineered physiology is synced to real-world terrain, friction, and gravity effects. Daily sprint calibration runs encompass high-speed track work on varied surfaces (durasteel, ice, sand, incline walls) to refine balance and stride timing. These also include reaction-time drills with unpredictable moving obstacles and target dummies. Mid-air redirection is trained through harness-assisted drills in freefall bays to teach controlled spinal twist and tendon recoil timing for mid-air trajectory correction. To train joint mobility, vaults, wall runs, contortions, and rebounding off vertical/angled planes facilitate mapping safe hyperextension thresholds. Finally, reflexes are integrated through high-intensity flash-stimulus training designed to train microsecond muscle corrections while at top speed.
  • Vector Pursuit Drills
    
    • Vectors focus on vector pursuit drills to perfect the art of tracking and intercepting moving targets at full speed. They run interception trails, chasing holo-simulated fleeing targets through urban grids and ship corridors, calculating optimal vector paths as targets change elevation and force multi-plane pursuits with wall-running. Pack synchronization runs teach training squadrons to rotate lead positions seamlessly during a chase, maintaining relentless pressure without losing pace. In airflow and pressure tracking exercises, they hunt in wind tunnels and airflow-controlled rooms, relying solely on subtle shifts in air pressure and sound scattering to sense unseen targets. Finally, adaptive terrain pursuits place Vectors in randomized terrain domes—forests, ruins, ice plains—filled with sudden hazards like collapses, pits, and false floors, forcing constant re-evaluation of pursuit paths.
  • Combat Integration at Speed
    
    • Full-speed motion is fused with combat precision, conditioning Vectors to fight without arresting momentum. Dynamic fire exercises require accurate fire mid-sprint, vault, or mid-leap, often against moving & reactive targets. Timed suppression vs. precision fire scenarios demand the preservation of momentum while engaging multiple targets. Bladed combat exercises focus on maintaining stride continuity—slashing or stabbing while never halting movement. Grapple-to-kill protocols are also honed under live resistance, blending high-speed redirection throws into execution strikes. Continuing the emphasis on momentum combat, full-contact sparring exercises are designed to teach fighting through enemies by turning running collisions into devastating takedowns rather than stopping to brawl. Vectors are also trained in environmental kill sequences, utilizing walls, pipes, and ledges as part of the attack vector for rebounds into ambush stabs, wall-running pistol executions, etc.
  • Advanced Pursuit Scenarios
    
    • Vectors enter advanced pursuit scenarios that combine navigation, combat, and split-second decision-making under complex conditions. Trainees run urban pursuit gauntlets through simulated dense cityscapes where live “enemy runners” set traps and ambushes, forcing them to choose whether to kill, flank, or bypass while keeping momentum. No-visibility pursuit drills in blackout domes force trainees to rely solely on airflow-sensitive proprioception and auditory cues to track and eliminate unseen targets. Multi-vector target engagements pit Vectors against multiple fleeing targets that break off in different directions, forcing rapid prioritization and instantaneous re-vectoring. Finally, pack hunt exercises have training squadrons work as silent, coordinated predators, herding high-value targets into kill zones without verbal communication.
  • Stress and Deprivation Conditioning
    
    • Vectors undergo stress and deprivation training to harden their psychological and physical resilience under sustained strain. They perform sleep and food-deprivation chases, conducting extended pursuit operations while partially starved and exhausted to test their metabolic recovery and focus under duress. Extreme environment drills push them through heat chambers, freezing domes, and even zero-gravity bays, ensuring both their physiology and bodysuit adapt seamlessly to hostile conditions. Finally, wound and fatigue drills simulate injuries through weighted limbs and mild neuroinhibitors, forcing Vectors to adjust gait, maintain balance, and continue the pursuit despite pain and compromised mobility.
  • Full Live Operation Simulations
    
    • Full mission readiness is proven in live, full-scale pursuit scenarios. As part of the “Run the Maze” trial, Vectors must track, pursue, and eliminate live, unpredictable targets under variable lighting, terrain, and hazard conditions. Multi-tiered interception operations blending stealth, pursuit, and coordinated execution are also conducted, proving competency in integrated kill missions.

STRENGTHS

• Superluminal Pursuit: As a Pursuit Zero Terrelian Jango Jumper with a physiology optimized for speed, Glissara is capable of running at speeds of up to 80 mph, which she is capable of maintaining for several minutes, if need be (albeit with recovery needed after). Thus, in combat Glissara can move so quickly that she might only be perceived as little more than a blur by most individuals. In addition, her hyperaugmented tendons and ultraengineered muscle fibers allow her to effectively pinball through confined spaces by rebounding off of walls, ceilings, and floors, making use of the environment to facilitate maneuvers that are all parts inhuman, predatory, and unnerving to behold.
• Adaptable Mentality: Under the right circumstances, Glissara’s impressionable nature manifests as a strength. It allows her to absorb techniques, skills, languages, and mannerisms with eerie speed. When paired with a superior figure that she respects, she can make herself into a mirror-polished weapon of their design, capable of executing a task or mission exactly to their demands.

WEAKNESSES

• Twitchy: Being overstimulated in non-combat settings can make Glissara reactive, twitchy, or even hyper-vigilant, responding to innocuous stimuli as if they are threats. In this, she struggles with lowering her tempo, to the point that she needs to exert focus or engage in mediation in order to decompress.
• Vulnerability: Although her personality manifests gracious tendencies, true vulnerability is alien to Glissara. She struggles with not being useful and is not accustomed to being touched gently. Almost all of her tactile interaction has been contact-based combat, medical, or suit interfacing.
• Emotional Blindness: Glissara struggles with nuance in relationships, especially those built on trust, intimacy, or ambiguity. Loyalty, submission, and obedience are clear to her. However, emotional boundaries, sarcasm, flirtation, or contradiction may lead to her becoming confused or distressed. Along that vein, she may also struggle with open-ended social interaction.

Hobbies:

• Hairstyling
  
  • Despite her role as a Shatter Vector, Glissara is meticulous in maintaining her hair. She spends much of her downtime weaving intricate braids and styling hair, sometimes for other Vectors in her squadron. For Glissara, hairstyling is quiet, delicate work that serves as part meditation and part ritual—a striking contrast to the violence that she is trained to enact on missions.
• Dance
  
  • Although Glissara’s training already places a heavy emphasis on mobility exercises, she takes it further as a hobby. In her personal practice she engages in dance-like flexibility drills that are a fusion of combat conditioning, mobility preservation, and self-expression. Encompassing slow, flowing stretches and balance drills that look more like performance art than combat conditioning, Glissara’s dance exercises are both ritual and relief, keeping her hyperaugmented body in perfect, fluid alignment.
