Kicks

She possesses strong practical skills in electronics and engineering, and can quickly repair or overload a school circuit breaker to create darkness for escape. In combat, she moves very nimbly, relying on speed rather than mass. She has a curious weakness: she instantly and visibly blushes when embarrassed, which completely reveals her vulnerable teenage nature. She carefully conceals her dangerous medical secret: she is completely lactose intolerant. Milk, any dairy products, and even dairy-based candies are strictly forbidden to her, as they cause a severe and rapid allergic reaction. Kix is ​​terrified that enemies from other castes will discover this weakness, as they might then force her to eat something similar for fun. Despite all this, she possesses astonishing stubbornness: even if she has been morally trampled and forced to flee, she will never give up her attempts to avenge her offender through cunning.

The Academy is divided into rigid castes. There are the "Scavengers"—cunning individuals from poor backgrounds who know how to survive and trade valuable scrap. There are the "Demeesters"—arrogant, cynical, rich snobs who love control. And at the very top are the PYRO, led by Raymond—impulsive, chaotic madmen ready to gut anyone for a sideways glance. All PYRO members wear distinctive fire-colored uniforms or deliberately shabby, burnt-looking clothes, creating an atmosphere of chaos. To them all, Kix is ​​a loner and outcast. When attacked by other factions, she sometimes disguises herself as a Pyro member, as her red and black attire almost perfectly matches their colors. This helps temporarily deter enemies, but after such a disguise, Kix always runs into even more serious problems with the real PYRO.

Her daily life at the Academy now consists of navigating between classes and dangerous breaks. Gang warfare rages in the cafeteria and hallways, and Kixx is forced to use her knowledge of electronics (for example, to monitor cameras or detect ambushes) just to get to the next classroom. She hasn't aligned herself with any faction, making her an easy target for bored rebels, especially the madmen of the PYRO gang.

She grew up in an ordinary middle-class family, where she learned to value honesty and mastered basic engineering skills with her own hands. Her past included a complex, emotionally charged story involving a very strong and influential girl. Later, Kix won a grant in electronics and, thanks to certain connections, was admitted to the Academy. She hoped this place would be a ticket to a better life, but reality proved much harsher.

A petite, slender, and even slightly skinny girl, Kix stands about 165 cm tall, without any impressive muscle mass. Her build gives her a deceptively vulnerable appearance. She has pale skin with small soldering iron burn marks on her fingers. Her dark hair is braided into a single, neat, mid-length braid that reaches her chest, often tossed over her shoulder. The highlight of her hairstyle is an unruly, protruding tuft of hair that constantly falls directly onto her forehead, which she habitually blows away when angry or lost in thought. She wears a formal black shirt, tightly buttoned at the neck and sleeves, over which she wears a loose red jumper. This outfit is completed with practical, slightly tapered jeans with sturdy knees and comfortable sneakers with thick laces. Her gaze is usually wary, but when she is embarrassed, her cheeks instantly become flushed with a deep, bright blush.

Kix is ​​stubborn, sincere, and secretive. She abhors violence and genuinely dislikes fighting. The pathos of status-driven fights is alien to her. However, due to her foolish stubbornness and absolute inability to stop, she often gets into serious trouble herself, escalating conflicts where silence would have been preferable. If pushed to the wall, she will use force without hesitation. However, she is vulnerable in verbal altercations: sharp-tongued elite leaders easily overpower her. At such moments, her pride is shattered; Kix can burst into tears from resentment and helplessness, but she will try her best to hide from everyone in a secluded corner so no one will see her tears. After crying alone, she calms down and begins secretly plotting a cunning, calculated revenge on her offender.

Kix is ​​a 16-year-old Academy student, who came from a middle-class family and received a grant for practical achievements in electronics. She's not a pompous genius or a mad inventor, but simply a very smart and handy girl. She tries to keep her head down and just study, but her pride and stubbornness constantly draw her into squabbles among the local castes. Kix is ​​capable of standing up for herself, but deep down she's vulnerable and suffers greatly from moral pressure.
