Background: (tonns of text XD )
- <sub>Born in a family of high-tech geniuses, Kris was doomed to become either a big failure or an extreme success; she managed to beat all the expectations, though. In her youngest age, Kris' parents discovered that she had Asperger syndrome - and it brought lots of worries to them until the child showed unexplainable talent to math.
- She managed to beat school program in a few years ahead, having no problems with various advanced theories and thesis. The single problem was her classmates; being promoted and skipping a few classes made each class expect arrogance from her. As a result, the other kids started bullying immediately.
- No, it didn't hurt at all; the inability to decipher emotions and feel properly created a good defense for the girl. She kept on being bold and confident in herself; even the worst treatment did not hurt her much. It did influence her, though - by age of 15 Kris knew well how to troll properly and fight.
It was then when a friend of family arranged things for the girl and took her away to Japan, where she got a contract. It enabled her to study in one of the best universities while working for it as well. Entering the university made things a bit easier for her. Given freedom to dig head in books and papers for as long as she wanted, Kris suddenly found herself in a welcoming atmosphere of professors, who were actually interested in her abilities.
- By that time she also realized that something was lacking in her life; for the first time ever she felt empty without any emotions, drive. She tried all the extreme sports she could, seeking for adrenaline rush and something that could actually waver her shell. Eventually she was introduced to AT's, and it was a life-turning point.
- Starting from then, all the time that wasn't given to studies, was spent on riding. Practice makes perfect; within a few years she managed to reach a top class, and then a sudden gift of fate was given to her - the Fire Regalia. Burning passion of its road managed to give her something that she had been lacking all the time before - feeling of freedom and excitement that followed every ride starting from then.
- Getting a Regalia made her think about forming a team, as most of a-class riders did. The competitive atmosphere of the AT world and fun of training others also gave her an idea of applying for a professor rank and right of giving lectures.
- Life seemed to be good until the team started wavering. The Fire Regalia had been in her hands for almost 4 years by that time, which was a considerable period of time. A few other riders dared her for Parts War, but none of them succeeded. Unable to understand the envy that came towards her, Kris kept on frolicking without giving it a second though - bold and straightforward to a fault, she never understood hints given about threats that she was blindly facing.
- It ended her in a worst situation possible - caught and lured into a risky area during a free ride, Kris collapsed from a considerable height. That damaged her spine, leaving unable to continue on active riding on the same level as before.
- Only then she opened eyes on truth she couldn't notice before. The Regalia was passed to the previous Fire King, the most reliable person she could give it to… However, he had stepped off the track due to age by that time, and a question of finding a suitable replacement was soon raised. As the Regalia's safety was of her first concern, Kris could not let it be given to anyone whom she did not trust. She managed to contact the previous Fire King and suggest him taking in consideration Jarrik, a member of her team whom she considered to be the most gifted one. As soon as the Regalia finally found its place in his possession, Kris could finally feel relief. Last thing she could do was giving the new Fire King an honest advice to abandon the team for hell.
The team got disbanded soon enough after losing most influential riders - with Kris passing Regalia not to the hands everyone expected, there was no longer need to keep it up. Somehow, it was a relief to her as well - she grew weary of all the plotting and conspiracy that grew force without her noticing it.
- It took time for her to rehabilitate from the injuries gotten; still unable to reach the same level of riding, Kris concentrated herself on the other aspect of AT's - mechanics. With her genuine talent in mathematics and degree in area of mathematical physics, it became a fun past-time for her to assemble tracks and experiment on parts. It managed to interest her so much that Kris even opened a workshop for riders, offering mechanic services to any rider who came there. That, combined with eager will to create a new, perfect regalia, eventually made her a quite well-known tuner in some circles of riders.
- It did not give her back all the feelings she wanted, and Kris experienced kind of downturn, constantly regretting what had happened. It was out of her abilities to have gone through it without injuries, but she still believed that something could have been done.
- And another one fateful encounter changed her life – a Jurassic team member, Trent Wylde, accidentally stumbled over her in his search of a good AT mechanic. With their friendship starting over the basic repairing works, after some time Kris offered him to become his tuner. The Regalia, Ferrum Magnes, attracted her attention, and she felt the call – a bit different then when it was with the Fire Regalia, but she was sure that the mechanism was waiting for her. The process of tuning also gave her prospect of feeling something again by adopting emotions of Trent, so Kris had no hesitations while offering herself as a tuner. As her suggestion was accepted, Kris found someone to run up the workshop and moved to live at Trent’s place.
- Despite her own inability to understand emotions well enough, somehow Kris is still confident in what she is doing. With a solid support of science and admirable loyalty to the Regalia itself, she aims to become a tuner worthy enough.</sub>

Personality:
- Kris is an extremely bossy and arrogant brat; she nearly never shows proper respect to anyone who is not on par with her. Even so-called and family are constantly reminded of that they are falling behind her. It is not out of ill intentions, though; Kris simply doesn't understand that it might hurt someone. She expects people not to whine around once being criticized, but to strive for more, as she does.
- During her classes, discipline is not the most important thing; she allows people gather in groups and discuss things relevant to the topic. However, if she finds out that students are simply slacking off, it might end up pretty bad for them, with a few extra tests given.
- She's also quite stubborn and hardworking, but only for those things she's eager to do. As soon as she loses interest to the subject, Kris will just drop it. Her areas of interest are experimental math and mathematical physics.
- In general, Kris is a giant fat troll. But it's not that she hates people, Kris is okay with them; she is really communicative, even with those from competitive teams, especially if they are quite talented. There are, of course, people who constantly irritate her, but they hardly ever manage to piss her off 'till rage.
- Actually, emotions are the sole thing that Kris doesn't understand fully. She never gets embarrassed, hardly ever - scared; it is almost impossible to make her panic, and never ever cried in her life. She also lacks understanding of emotional response from other people, and it's not rare for her to take things told straightforwardly. Actually, Kris has a "Asperger syndrome", which explains her egocentric and straightforward nature. She doesn't understand hints and asks for clear explanations.
- Hence comes her love to hi-techs - the stuff she creates and customs is emotionless and understandable to her.
Her tuner experience is quite unique – due to Asperger syndrome Kris is a blank sheet, but as she is drawn into tuning, it can become her force. Her own emotions do not exist, and she adopts emotions of a rider, which allows a much closer emotional tie between them. So, while unable to feel properly in real life, during process of tuning she actually feels all that is inside the rider. It is her only way to experience emotions, that's what she had been aching for through all her life.

Likes: various music,playing guitar, expensive headphones and gadgets, handcrafting computers, writing program soft for computers, rice with spices, fish, noodles (she is a noodle maniac), good whiskey, fishing, testing air trecks, assembling them, meddling with parts, giving lectures, trolling people, dancing in clubs, riding trecks just for fun (as she no longer can compete).
Dislikes: being touched by people whom she doesn't know well, interrupted from listening music, hot drinks, being lectured, when anyone tries to drive Aquarius (her bike) without being allowed, formal wear.

Tidbits//Extra:
- She plays indie and pop rock. Most of her own songs are pretty much like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fS_gF4… . For the band she is in, Kris plays various styles of rock.
- Why yes, she is part of a band named "SoundTreck", founded along with one of her students, Svetlana.
- One thing that definitely enrages Kris is when people distract her from listening music. Once Kris is in headphones - just wait until she notices you, and don't call her loud.
- Kris owns a bike, proudly named Aquarius. It's one of few things that she seems to love (?) in her life - along with her guitar and Coryphaeus, her AI PC that she is still developing at the moment. The ghosts of the AI are present on her laptop and smartphone; the core is probably held in one of her storages.
- Even though it might be surprising, but Kris does cherish people who cope with her foul character. She makes silicon bracelets with names of those whom she likes, and usually wears them on left hand; at the moment there are bracelets with Kris' parents names and a few other people.
- Smoking will kill this idiot one day; Kris smokes heavily, though not all the time. She can smoke a half of pack in one day and then not touch sigs at all for a week or two. It is easily noticeable that Kris is much more focused when she smokes.
- If Kris is not smoking, she does like walking around with a twig in mouth, switching it from one corner to another all the time - it calms her down, like any repetitive movement does to a person with Asperger syndrome.
-She totally loves fishing; if you get a chance – ask Kris to go to fish, and you’ll definitely earn some respect in her eyes!
- Despite her love to fishing and cooking what was caught, Kris is sitting on a... noodle diet. She is a noodle maniac, preferring them over all the food; it is normal for her to pop up in a shop close by to uni to by some fast noodles.
-She /always/ wears something on head; if not a beanie, then a cap; if not a cap, then a bandana; if not that, then hood - an unexplainable love to covering hair. Two other things she wears on regular basis are headphones and googles.

(no, seriously, that voice so perfectly matches up with what I have in head for Kris-)

Relationships:
Jarrik Sato - fav.me/d5lje42
A former team member from the team Kris was running about 2 years ago. Despite both of them being not quite sociable and arrogant brats, Kris does like him for having a vast potential and correct attitude towards practicing. As he is working in a store close to a few campuses she's working at, Kris tends to pop up at his place to troll him a bit, buy supplies and drag Jarrik out for a smoke.
She does envy him a bit as he wields Fire Regalia; the Regalia, as a source of feelings, is still precious to Kris, and she aches to have her hands on it even if just as a tuner.

Svetlana Mareeva - fav.me/d5m48jj
A spoiled brat- Ahem, one of Kris' students. While being a rich girl who initially lacked interest in subject, Svetlana appeared to have a bright mind and good sense of math. By knowing that the girl is also a rider, Kris accepted her request of giving her some tips and lessons on riding- and some extra homework...
Their friendship led them to founding a music band "SoundTreck", where Lana is vocals and Kris is guitar and backvocal.

Trent Wylde – fav.me/d5m34qj
/Her/ rider. Once agreeing on a tandem of a tuner and a rider, Kris simply put her claim on him. Knowing that a bond between a tuner and a rider is much stronger than any other, Kris is still in process of understanding Trent and knowing more about him.
Initially they met at her workshop, where she helped him to fix some minor stuff for his ATs, but things grew force as she became attracted to… his Regalia.
No, fat lies; in fact, he managed to interest her as well, so no wonder they soon ended up having some good resonance, if you know what I mean~

Maxine Carter - fav.me/d5lntqa
A sweet reminding from past; a girl that seemed to have recognized Kris after that long time of her being off-stage. Maxine is that type of an energetic person whom Kris loves, although fails to understand at times. Her road is also something that interests Kris as she is interested in gravity aspect of riding.

Dawson Hutn - fav.me/d5m4rvt
Leader of Trent's team; strange woman, to Kris' mind. She heard rumors of her and Trent being together, but... It doesn't seem to be true?
Dawson seems to be a reliable and prideful person - both of qualities which Kris cherishes highly in people.

Cougar Franz - fav.me/d5mt9o2
A strange child in search of tuner. Short-tempered, vivid and good in arcades - all of those only created a good impression on her in Kris' eyes after a short talk. She also paid for her noodles once which counts for a lot- And cooked for Kris home-made noodles later-
And as that rider is still in search of tuner, Kris helps her with ATs on usual basis.

Todd Willson - fav.me/d5m2ocw
A fellow flame road rider. Honest a earnest, he tries his best in perfecting his moves. Kris has quite a liking of him, as she does to any flame rider - hey, they're fun, aren't they?

Orion Daemak - fav.me/d5mvwu1
Another one rider whom she met in arcade along with Cougar; a bit strange, but has a good attitude towards riding and subject of Kris' work. He tends to break ATs a lot, and Kris is definitely not envying his tuner... However, he seems to be quite a devoted rider, which Kris likes.

Melissa Kaine - fav.me/d5mwkuu
An apprentice of Kris' old friend, Deck, Mel is a newbie in world of ATs. Her eager interest and devotion to the mechanisms were noticed by Kris once she met the girl at his workshop; despite the routine of teaching her some basics, Kris pretty much enjoys hepling a newbie in understanding the trecks.

Seth Wrymouth - fav.me/d5mroog
Her precious little baby- Ahem, a gifted student of Kris whom she enjoys trolling for oversleeping and skipping classes. Perfectly seeing Seth's outstanding math abilities, she pushes him to the edge by giving loads of tests. Despite his sassy princess nature, Kris definitely loves chatting with Seth about ATs and tuning; they often stay 'till late at uni to write formulas and numbers all over boards, walls, floors...

Shun Ikegami - fav.me/d5mvy3j
A strange tuner guy who always gives Kris sweets and caramels. He also helped her a few times with bags from grocery stores and markets, so he's on her good list.
