Name: Alissa ‘Jinxy’ Mashin (goes by Jinxy)

Age: 28 Years old

Gender: Female

Description: Jinxy stands at roughly five foot two, one hundred and ten pounds. She is not the biggest, but she does have some muscles, from years of engine work and weapon training. (From about the time she was seven with the weapons, fifteen for engine work.) She keeps her black hair short so it won’t get caught in the engines she’s working on, but has two blue streaks in her hair.

Personality: Jinxy is what some may call a ‘wild card’ as sometimes it’s hard to tell if she’s being playful or serious, unless it comes to engines. When it comes to engines, she will take them seriously, as a non-functioning engine could result in them falling from the sky and towards their death.

She can be a bit of a prankster at times, but nothing ever too serious. She knows better than to cause trouble aboard the ship when they are on duty, so she saves her pranks for when they are at the docks, and are on leave.

She is a very loyal and friendly person to those who have her trust, and is usually easy going, unless someone is messing about with her engine, but that will usually just get you either a look, or a stern warning, nothing too much more. She does try to make sure that everything is in place, and she has a system, and is not a fan of people messing with it too much.

Her friendship can be easily bought with some good liquor and a good joke, but her loyalty is earned through time and actions.

History: Jinxy was born in Shao Hong, to her loving parents Aimami and Tokorashi. Her father Tokarashi was an engineer for the ships and airships that would come from time to time, and he was one of the better ones around. Jinxy started coming with him to work when she was little, and grew up around engines and the smell of machines. She found that she was hooked on machines from a young age, and as soon as she was able to, she would worm her way way under engines and start working on them.

At the same time, her elder brother taught her how to fight, using a pair of sais as her weapons. He said it was part of the family line tradition, on their mother’s side. Aimami watched over her daughter as her son taught her, and would step in from time to time, especially when Jinxy would need help with her Rune magic. Her elder brother, Hoshiro, was not adept with magic at all, so Aimami took that into her own hands with her daughter.

Jinxy started spending most of her time with her father, working on engines, becoming an engineer without peer in their small town. When she was old enough, she soon found her way to Vaele, where airships were born. She spent a few years there, bouncing around from ship to ship as a mechanic, while also making sure to keep up with her magic and weapon training. From Vaele, she made her way to Azuria, where she found work in the military as an engineer. That is where she met Amelia. She was briefly aboard one of Amelia’s ships before Amelia was discharged.

Jinxy liked Amelia enough to leave the military with her, and offered her services as a mechanic. Over the next few years, she soon became the Chief Mechanic, a position that she holds with pride, and would never give up. She still makes sure to keep up both her magic and weapon practices, as she wants none of her talents to go to waste.
