[[File:Karakuriya.jpg|thumb|Violet's photo in the 2006-2007 Annuus.]]
'''Violet Lam''', also known by the hero alias "'''Karakuriya'''" (formerly "'''Aeon Quisling'''") is a seventeen-year-old girl who has attended [[Saint Joseph School]] since the winter of [[2006]]. She is a cyborg created by a program known to her only as [[Project Daedalus]], but she has escaped their care twice now, if not their influence. She is generally quiet and well-mannered, though she has a cynical streak and can be very sarcastic, while in her better moods she is flirty and a gossip. She fluctuates between a seriousness about her studies and hero work and a graceful nonchalance in social interactions. The concept of beauty is a preoccupation of Violet's; she is an accomplished violinist and takes great care in her appearance and poise. Her choice of appropriate attire is often questioned, but Violet disregards the argument on the basis that the majority of her body is synthetic.
This demeanor has only been the norm since Violet's recent return from [[Project Daedalus]] in April of [[2008]]. Prior to her departure in January or the same year, she suffered a chronic chemical inhibition of her lymbic system and several psychological and social disabilities as a result. Known then by the name "Aeon," she was extremely shy, lacked self-esteem, and had difficulty understanding her powers and reconciling her many memory blanks. For those who knew her well, this change was drastic.

-->
*manipulation of noumena (including her own self and other beings-in-themselves), manipulation of some electromagnetic radiation
*intangibility, flight, invisibility, and some chameleon effects
==== Common Knowledge ====
It is common knowledge that Violet is a cyborg--her self-healing polymer skin (which is slightly cooler than human skin and sprouts no hair) and various data ports are noticeable, and she makes no qualms about admitting to being more than human. Since her most recent rebuild, she now sports carbon fiber bones which bring her weight back into human normal range. She is not a strength fighter, so she has yet to have any breaks. Violet's most defining aspect is a cyberbrain that has replaced her hormone-triggered systems with an electrical impulse one. Thus she has a fully customized set of internal organs wired into the system and designed to be efficient and nearly wasteless. The upgrade also required an enhancement to the timing of her nervous system and musculature, so she is superhumanly quick, though not as fast as dedicated super speeders. The cyberbrain allows Violet some other perks in memory, calculation, reconnaissance, and the ability to interface with machines, though she is not reprogrammable, nor is she a practiced hacker and does not rely on these abilities.
Violet's primary method of dispatching opponents is by twin long daggers, either held or locked in line with the bones of her forearms. She has ten of these daggers holstered in various positions on her person, though she draws them so quickly, it is uncertain how. Most commonly, her primary two shoot into her hands from the underside of her forearms. Violet defends herself less by blocking and more by dodging, using her hyper-tuned reflexes and software systems to avoid melee weapons, bullets, and even explosions. She is resistant to psychic and mental attacks, though she is weak to intense electromagnetic radiation and electric shocks, as they seem to hamper her ability to perceive or maneuver around hazards. Finally, Violet can utilize an "overdrive mode," during which she somehow evades nearly all incoming attacks, becoming a veritable machine of whirling blades, though once her resources are exhausted, she is completely vulnerable.
It is difficult to make sense of what is going on when Violet is in combat. All the grace and poise she carries in every day life is maintained, and she utilizes an unnatural flexibility in evasion. It could be that she can be extremely quick in limited bursts, employing an "afterimage" effect, because often it seems as though projectiles, especially, simply pass through the space she is occupying without contacting her at all. An added effect to the strangeness is that Violet appears to move without regard to gravity or wind resistance, and sometimes without inertia. Especially in flight, she makes no physical indication of the source of her movement, simply sliding through the air as if by telekinesis.
It is clear that Violet has had some martial arts training, and even though she can eschew momentum, utilizes principles of ''tai chi chuan'' to conserve energy and use opponents' strength against them. Her use of her blades, however, exhibits obsessively trained amateurism, especially as she likes to draw the left one in reverse.
Violet relies heavily on not being hit in the first place. She does bleed and has a field kit for patching her skin. However, she occasionally has to check into the hospital for larger grafts and the replacement of muscles and organs; she has admitted that clones of all her constituent parts are housed with Project Daedalus and can be shipped out should she require a transplant.
It is believed by the population at large that all of Violet's exhibited abilities are the result of her cybernetic prosthetic devices alone.

-->
*self-healing polymer skin, carbon fiber bones, polyurethane joints, enhanced musculature and nervous system, cyberbrain, ten long knives concealed within her person
==== Common Knowledge ====
Violet switches up her costumes and armor quite often, though she always favors light equipment, often to the point of not wearing much at all. She claims it aids in her evasion, as there is "less matter to drag around." Regardless, she is not often without a very large black scarf that is tipped with red at its pointed ends and wrapped around her in various configurations. She also wears a chunky visor with a single fish eye lens; it is not clear how this helps her see at all, though it apparently carries some handy reconnaissance software packages that interface directly with her cyberbrain.
In combat and out, Violet always wears heels of at least three inches in height, supposedly because her feet were built that way.

==== Common Knowledge ====
She was born on August 23rd, 1991 somewhere in upstate New York and grew up in Pennsylvania with her unmarried parents. Her mother quit social work to teach piano out of the family home, and her father was largely absent from her life due to his career in genetics that kept him in Hong Kong and the Koreas for months at a time. To avoid prying questions and stigma on that topic, Violet was given her mother's surname of Lam. She does not remember much of her early life, and fine details, especially, are impossible to recall. She does know that her mother taught her how to cook and play piano and guitar, and pressed her to take lessons in the violin, voice, ballroom dance and ballet, and theater from a very young age.
At some point in her tweens, Violet began to rebel against her goody-two-shoes upbringing, wearing provocative clothing, piercing her tongue and navel, dying her hair, and experimenting with alcohol. Because she excelled at the violin, she began attending summer music camps a few years early and it may be partially to blame for the change.
Violet does not speak at all about a period of time between her 14th birthday (late [[2005]]) and when she first appeared in Paragon City, orphaned, abandoned, and no longer fully human. It is implied that she spent this time in the care of Project Daedalus, though for what purpose, she has yet to say. Supposedly, "something" went wrong at the compound in Paragon where she was kept, and she was jettisoned from the project, suffering some brain damage from an impromptu memory wipe. The event left her with extensive amnesia and uncorrectable damage to her lymbic system.
The next two years were spent uncovering the origins of the organization that bore her, and while Violet has not had much to say on this topic, either, she clearly no longer carries a large amount of animosity toward them, regardless of the trauma she suffered. Perhaps she has simply bought into the project's dogma, or she had been brainwashed in some way, but when living with her damaged systems became unbearable, she opted to return to the project. She expected the repairs and rehabilitation to take three months, though she was gone for over four. Violet has not made known why she returned to school and hero work at all, especially since she appears to be more enmeshed with Project Daedalus than ever, now serving as a recruiter. She hints that she could have stayed with the project indefinitely, but something happened to sour her disposition toward them, even if she could not bring herself to war against the organization as she once had. This has also changed her relationship with [[pw:Crey|Crey Industries]], as she no longer stands vehemently opposed to unethical scientific inquiry. Rather, her new crusade seems to be against the destruction of knowledge--she now refuses to burn files and erase databases, leaving this to her superiors to do for themselves.
==== Uncommon Knowledge ====
[[Project Daedalus]] is a department of a mysterious organization called the [[Icaria Foundation]]. The Daedalus branch specifically handles the monitoring, cyberization, training, and deployment of the foundation's specially engineered cyborg agents. Established in 1984, the project is still in its infancy, having created five generations of agents, only two of which are active as yet.
As [[Generation Zero]] is made up of modified recruits, [[Generation Aeon]] consists of the first prototype agents to be engineered completely from genetic scratch. The generation's 20 subjects were created from five donor strains, each exhibiting a wide array of powerful and difficult-to-manage mutant abilities that the foundation saw as desirable could the genetic expression and the effects be controlled. Due to the volatile nature of the mutations, the survival rate of the generation's subjects was poor and only dwindled as the years wore on. As of 2008, there are only two subjects remaining, [[Sydney St. John]] and [[Violet Lam]], both from the [[Minerva Strain]]. Violet is considered the only success.
Each subject began with a genetic basis taken from two members of the foundation who volunteered to raise the child as their own until it came time to hand her to Project Daedalus for cyberization. Violet's host parents are the doctors Johannes Quisling and Sylvia Lam, although Quisling had little hand in Violet's upbringing. The genes of the donor strain, carrying the mutations responsible for expressed meta-human abilities, were spliced into the child's genome, and a lab-grown embryo was implanted in the host mother.
Aside from the parents being members of the Icaria Foundation, the children were raised without intervention, though encouraged to hone their natural talents in the fine and martial arts. The fickle strains of Generation Aeon, however, saw most of the subjects fail before birth or in infancy. Miraculously, the entire Minerva Strain survived ten years without incident, and Violet was fourteen before Project Daedalus preemptively stepped in to ensure her survival.
The purpose of the cyberization process is two-fold. The obvious end result of the extensive cybernetic enhancements is a super soldier who is custom tailored from systems that best utilize her abilities to cosmetic preferences. The secondary effect of such extensive prosthetics is a dissociation of the subject from her body, mentally and even spiritually. Invented and developed by Dr. Quisling himself, his Transcendence methodology, of which cyberization is only a step, frees the subject's soul from her corporeal form, allowing it to be transferred to another vessel, such as a clone or a cybernetic brain. This is the crucial attribute that sets Project Daedalus' engineered meta-humans apart from the rest, and the method, following the Greek myth of Daedalus and Perdix and the latter's feat of transferring an immortal soul into a machine, is how the project got its name. The method has saved Violet twice now from being overcome by her abilities.
{{ wip }}
Violet spent around a year at in the care of the project and successfully underwent her first round of cybernetic implants: a largely synthetic body built around her original nervous system. During her stay, she grew close to her only surviving "sibling," [[Sydney Ashe]], though she quickly began to eclipse him in power and ability, putting strain on their friendship. Further stress was caused when the [[Generation Zero]] sisters [[Molly]] and [[Primavera]] adopted Violet as a field apprentice into their ''ad hoc'' "recruitment" team called the [[Tea Party]]. Extremely new to the philosophies and methods of Project Daedalus, Violet was largely shaken by the experience which comprises the largest body of repressed memories she still carries.
The new agent's tutelage was abruptly ended, however, in a Longbow raid on the Daedalus compound. Rather than destroy herself as evidence, Violet fled, setting off a network of proximity-triggered detonators in her brain, effectively erasing all of her memories regarding the project as well as many details of her background. The fail-safe also deactivated her partially cybernetic lymbic system, the triggering mechanism of her abilities.
Under the hero alias Aeon Quisling, Violet spent the next year recovering her memories and tracking down Project Daedalus while they continued to monitor her through scheduled, involuntary rendezvous. However, despite all that the project had done to her, Violet could not bring herself to stand fully against them, having subconsciously absorbed much of the dogma and feeling desperate for a family and a place to belong. Eventually, when she had sustained enough irreparable physical damage and mental unrest to render her current life unbearable, Violet made arrangements with Sydney, whom she had been contacting more frequently in the field, to be returned to the project's new compound for repairs.

=== What's in a name? ===
With the extensive and reoccurring neurological damage Violet has suffered since her abilities first manifested, it is a wonder that she has retained a relatively functional psyche. However, at her core Violet is utterly delusional, and the points at which her world align with reality are largely coincidental. Indeed, along with her memory, her very identity is fragmented, though she is rarely conscious of the partitioning her ego was forced to undergo in order to cope. While each of the partially-formed alters identify as "Violet Lam," each has an internal alias by which Violet's internal monologue tags them.
;Shrinking Violet
rior to being complicated by the manifestation of her abilities, Violet was a bright an well-adjusted child. With the onset of her "Shrinking Sickness," and the deterioration of the barriers between her body, mind, soul, and the rest of the world, however, she began to take on ghostly qualities that, if left unchecked, were estimated to be fatal for the girl. Despite these unfortunate circumstances, Violet considers the girl she was, prior to Project Daedalus' explicit tampering, to be her original and core self, elevated in memory so far as to be unattainable. As far as Violet is concerned, this core "died" in a symbolic car accident, and only exists in written and audio transcript.

;The Rogue
:While Violet has never been fundamentally shy, her unchecked powers presented as a degree of meekness. Rebelling against her new nature as a spiritual wallflower, the Rogue was born from an experimental number of tween years spent in music camps with peers significantly older than herself. Brash and over-sexualized, Violet reasserted her ego and was able to stave off the onset of the Shrinking's final stages.

;Seventeen
:If Violet's original personality ended in a fatal car wreck, her brain's next conscious thought belonged to Seventeen. Born in the Project Daedalus compound and called "Alpha-17," she had yet to suffer any memory loss, but the trauma of the Shrinking and her interception was enough to largely dissociate Violet from everything she had known up to that point. Psychologically cut off from her past, much of Violet's rehabilitation and training only served to traumatize her further, though she did eventually find herself falling for her [[Minerva Strain|strain]]-sibling, [[Sydney Ashe]]. Seventeen elected to receive cybernetic prostheses that would ground her in reality and temporarily halt the Shrinking's progress.

'''''The remainder of the section is deprecated.'''''
As incestuous and derivative as [[Project Daedalus]] is, it is unsurprising that this girl's many (external) aliases fit the trend.
;Alpha-17
: The first name by which she was ever known, as the eighteenth subject (numbered 0 through 19) of the alpha generation ("[[Generation Aeon]]") of Project Daedalus.
;Violet Lam
: All of the subjects of the first two generations were codenamed after flowers, and the four subjects of [[Generation Aeon]]'s [[Minerva Strain]] took the names of purple-hued flowers: [[Iris]], [[Lavender]], [[Aster Ashe|Aster]], and Violet. Violet is the youngest of her strain. Lam is the surname of Violet's host mother, Dr. [[Sylvia Lam]].
;Shrinking Violet
: A nickname as given by her fellow subjects from Project Daedalus.
;Chroma
: Violet's code name as part of the [[Tea Party]], along with [[Molly]] and [[Primavera]]. Following the scheme of heroines from cyberpunk literature, Chroma is the Internet alias of the character Kusanagi Motoko from Masamune Shirow's ''Kōkaku Kidōtai''.
;Aeon Quisling
: Violet's first hero alias, taken from her body's "make and model." The original title "Daedalus Alpha-17: Quisling I" was shortened in-house to simply "Aeon Quisling": Aeon from the codename for the alpha generation, and Quisling from the subject's patron, Dr. [[Johannes Quisling]]. As patrons are assigned on a one-to-one basis, "Alpha-17: Quisling" is redundant. Because of this, she has also been known as Violet Quisling. It is a coincidence that Violet's patron is also her host father.
: Her current model name is Daedalus Alpha-17: Quisling III, or Aeon Quisling v3.
;Karakuriya
: The name Violet took for herself when she returned from her rebuild and rehabilitation in the winter of [[2007]] and [[2008]]. ''Karakuri'' is a Japanese term for a mechanical device meant to tease, trick, or surprise, specifically in ''karakuri ningyou'', automata from 18th and 19th century Japan. The suffix ''-ya'' can denote a thing that exemplifies the qualities of the root word--that is to say ''karakuri''-like, or ''karakuri''-ish. Violet takes the alias to be tongue-in-cheek.
