Juno Laqueius
"But it's for SCIENCE!"
A Garlean engineer formerly attached to the XIV Legion, Juno Laqueius defected to Garlond Ironworks during the Ultima Weapon project. Excitable, brilliant, curious (some would say nosy), and surprisingly sweet and friendly (some would say naive) for a full-blooded Garlean, Juno now prefers to spend her time building gadgets, fixing broken stuff and trying to figure out how the fuck social interactions work.

Personality
Juno is a naturally upbeat woman with a high level of enthusiasm about pretty much everything pretty much all of the time, but has a much higher comfort level with machines that don't talk back. She has a difficult time processing the complex interplay between people in social situations, and tends to put people off at times by treating things (and, sometimes, people) like a science experiment.She tends to be trusting to a fault despite having been repeatedly burned in the past, and part of her social awkwardness includes frequent misunderstandings of when she shouldn't be doing something or when something she's doing is upsetting people.
Appearance
Juno stands a bit over five fulms tall, with a stocky build marked by pleasant curves and the muscle you'd expect from a girl that does a fair amount of manual labor on the daily.She has the nearly-translucent ivory skin, white hair, blue eyes and 'third eye' typical of pureblood Garleans, although a heavy smattering of pale freckles speaks to some non-standard genetics in her family at some point in the distant past.The style of her hair changes frequently, but she tends to favor twin-tail hairstyles both long and short.
Skills
Juno is a talented engineer and enjoys putting her skills to work both inventing new items and fixing old ones.She's also a gourmet-grade cook, which doesn't come up as often as you'd think when you don't entertain much.
Hooks
- Need custom magitek built or something big or small fixed? Juno's your girl. She has several shops scattered through the Shroud, including her apartment at the Red Lantern Society and the Ceruleum-1 Magitek Racing League garage.
- She's a former praefectus from the XIV Legion's engineering department, and she was assigned to Castrum Meridianum during the Ultima Weapon project. She went by a different last name then, though, and she looked... different. Years of accumulated body art will do that.
- Alliance-aligned personnel may have encountered her in Revenant's Toll, where she used to be a frequent sight at Garlond Ironworks' headquarters.
