Julia Serrano Hirano
Family:
Julia is a third-generation Nikkei (a Japanese emigrant, specifically on her mother’s side) born and raised in Peru. Her father is an automobile mechanic, whereas her mother owns and cooks for a small restaurant specializing in Japanese-Peruvian cuisine. She also has an older brother who works as a welder. She is currently living with some cousins in Japan while attending /kkg/, as she was held back a year and ultimately expelled from her old high school. She insists that her expulsion was in no way related to the complete atomization of that school’s gymnasium. Twice.

Personality:
Slow to anger and quick to forgive, Julia is cheerful, friendly, and always eager to help. She is not, however, a polite girl by any stretch of the word; she’s actually quite boorish and overly familiar by Japanese standards. She’s very touchy-feely and will almost always opt for handshakes or hugs over a polite bow if given the choice. She uses slang very often – preferring “paisen” over “senpai”, for example – and she tends to call other students by their first names or a nickname, usually eschewing the use of honorifics altogether. She jumps at any opportunity to nerd out about her interests with like-minded peers and has absolutely no filter when it comes to lewd or inappropriate topics. She loves to joke around and frequently fucks with other people by making up outrageous stories about herself, especially when someone asks what happened to her right arm. Only her fellow R&D club members have an idea about what really might’ve happened to it thanks to a particularly notable quirk of Julia’s: though she usually takes a perverse joy in flagrantly violating even the most basic safety considerations, she is always exceptionally careful and precise when working with the machining equipment. It doesn’t matter if you’re her junior, her senior, or even a teacher – don’t ever let her catch you goofing off or horsing around in the club’s workshop or you’ll most certainly regret it.

Abilities:
Julia’s status as an engineering prodigy made itself known when her father busted open the garage door in the middle of the night, gun in hand, expecting a robber… only to discover that his nine year old daughter had almost entirely disassembled the busted motorcycle sitting under the tarp and was desperately trying to put it together before she got caught. She ended up becoming a common fixture around his shop up until the incident which took her right arm. Not to be dissuaded from her passion for machines and thoroughly dissatisfied with the itchy socket prosthesis she was initially fitted with, Julia produced the first working prototype of her mechanical arm at just twelve years of age. It’s only grown more advanced over the past six years; the current iteration is highly modular and Julia has designed countless auxiliary attachments for it ranging from lighters to rocket fists to sex toys.

Combat Profile (since apparently everyone and their mother at this school can fight):
“Peace through Superior Firepower” – the fuckin’ motto! In Julia’s opinion, the best weapon is the one you never have to use… more than once. When faced with a genuine threat, she wastes no time busting out the big guns and neutralizing it in the biggest, flashiest manner possible with plenty of explosions and a healthy dose of collateral damage (she prefers the term “deterrence”). When ranged is out of the question, she has plenty of augments to her arm to facilitate equally destructive hand-to-hand.
Relationships:
Julia spends most of her time hanging around the R&D club or in her garage workshop back home so she doesn’t have many actual friends outside of her fellow club members, but she tries to stay on good terms with most of her peers and teachers. Some of her more notable relations include:
•	Celica: Julia is now banned from accessing the hazardous materials storage without express permission from her sponsor, Carol, or Katherine. Naturally, she gets sent away empty-handed from Celica’s office at least twice a week. If the teacher’s eyes and demeanor didn’t terrify her so much, she would’ve learned to forge her signature by now.
•	Ottie: They initially didn’t get along very well – Julia’s speech patterns and reckless personality led Ottie to conclude that she wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, and she made that opinion very clear. They’ve grown a bit friendlier as they got to know each other more during club activities. Not only can she commiserate with Ottie about being held back because of FOOLS who can’t appreciate genius when they see it, but being around her also seems to bring out Julia’s inner mad scientist – she’s recently started training a primitive AI to control the motor functions of her arm, inspired by the girl’s tentacles. ~~Plus, she has a cute butt.~~
•	Teresa: Can barely restrain herself from bearhugging the adorable little midget whenever she sees her.
•	Librasta: Endlessly fascinated by Libby’s body (interpret that as you will). Recently got wind that the latter’s been having problems with her Wombforce, and has been scouring the internet for ~~leaked proprietary schematics~~ useful information on the part so she can assist with repair – and hopefully get an opportunity to see what makes the android tick, while she’s at it.
•	Carol: The Boss-Lady. Respects her as the Director of R&D and as her senior, but sometimes chafes under Carol’s leadership – like not allowing Julia access to hazmat >:(
•	Toshi: He’s cute, but she’s into men who are, um, taller. She thinks samurai are pretty cool though, so he’s got that going for him. Also loves to pick on him for being a tsundere whenever she catches him hanging around Librasta. Doesn’t know why he gets so fidgety around her arm – she’s only PART machine, after all…
•	Sora: Has seen him hanging around the club and wonders why he doesn’t just drop music and join up with R&D already. One of the few people outside R&D who can keep up with Julia’s technobabble.
•	Leslie & Kurumi: Julia’s destructive hijinks are the cause of frequent headaches for the Student Council and PMC – the only reason she hasn’t been apprehended yet is because her escape attempts inevitably result in a gaping hole in the side of the school, and God knows our budget can’t take much more of that.
•	Kit: Julia has recently integrated a JoyCo Orgasmaster 69XLR into her arm in preparation for the day that horny furball comes after her. She’s in for one helluva ride…
•	Au-Gold: Likes him as a teacher and excels in his science class, but is doing miserably in politics. It’s looking increasingly likely that she’ll have to challenge him to a fight to pass; she’s recently begun developing multiple weapons for this very purpose.
•	Gabriela: Excels in her Spanish class for obvious reasons. Also secretly wants to motorboat those titties. Just once!
•	Carson: One of her favorite teachers – Julia loves westerns because a few of her ancestors were vaqueros from up north, and the cowpoke is one of a handful of people at the school who can hold a full conversation in Spanish.
•	Hitomi: Currently engaged in the R&D club’s investigation into the Vice Principal’s true nature. Has a few theories about what really might be going on, but has resolved to only convey them in Spanish for shits and giggles.
•	Anne: Given that Julia is mixed-race, Anne is the primary reason she hates visiting the nurse’s office.
•	Milly: Given her own extensive experience with advanced prostheses, Julia has extended an open invitation for the security guard to stop by for maintenance or troubleshooting should she need it. ARM BUDDIES!
•	Air Man: Their relationship is currently antagonistic for reasons yet unknown, but it seems to have something to do with a “Leaf Shield”?
•	Miguel: The current object of Julia’s infatuation. Whether this is merely a schoolgirl crush or genuine romantic affection remains to be seen…

Other Notes:
•	Julia qualifies for dual citizenship and speaks fluent Japanese for the most part, but she’s more comfortable with her mother tongue.
•	Has both samurai and cowboy ancestry.
•	Keeps a “kill count” of voided warranties etched onto the back of her laptop. It’s almost completely covered in tally marks.
•	Some loretism about the robot arm:
o	Attached via osseointegrated titanium rod embedded directly into her humerus.
o	The arm doesn’t come off – automated cleaning and sanitization functions located in the upper arm prevent infection around the abutment and stoma.
o	The servomotors in the joints are controlled by myoelectric impulses from the muscles of the residual limb and are powered by a kinetic power bank housed in the forearm that generates energy as Julia moves around; excess energy is stored in the four beefy capacitor banks located around the cuff, which supply power to any attached mods.
o	Has a maximum grip strength of 5,000 psi with inhibitors switched off – more than a saltwater crocodile’s bite force. She can detach it from the forearm up and use the hand as a vice.
o	Has a full toolkit integrated into her hand, along with some more specialized functions like a fire extinguisher, a rivet gun, an arc welder, an electric tape dispenser, a muon tomography imager, and an instant-application label printer in the palm (she once slapped Anon in the face after she caught him falling asleep at the lathe and left him with a sticker on his forehead reading “PENDEJO” in big red letters - it didn’t come off for a week)
o	Julia specifically designs most of her creations with the option to interface directly with her arm, allowing her to control them as if they were extensions of her own body
o	The joints on her wrist and fingers exhibit a full 360° range of motion, for all those hard-to-reach places. 
o	They also vibrate ;)
o	The clunky retro appearance is an aesthetic decision on Julia’s part – the riveted metal band around her upper arm is just for show, and all exterior surfaces are coated in a layer of soft rubberized sealant/paint that feels pleasant to the touch. Unless you’re getting punched.
