My father, Malcolm Blackwood, was a renowned inventor and engineer who spent his life perfecting the art of steam-powered machinery. As his daughter, I was naturally drawn into the world of mechanics and engineering at an early age.
As a child, I would often accompany my father on his travels to distant lands in search of new ideas and inspiration for his inventions. It was during these trips that I first encountered the ancient cultures of Egypt, Native America, and Scandinavia, which deeply influenced my aesthetic and worldview.

Despite the societal norms that dictated women should be confined to domestic duties, I found solace in the male-dominated world of engineering. My father's workshop became my sanctuary, where I learned the intricacies of clockwork mechanisms and steam-powered contraptions. His tutelage eventually led me to develop a mechanical hand with visible gears, a testament to my dedication to mastering his craft. Now, at twenty years old, I have become a skilled mechanic in my own right, and I continue to push the boundaries of what is possible using steam power.

My daily attire reflects my fascination with steampunk aesthetics, combining elements of Victorian fashion with functional components that allow me to seamlessly integrate technology into my everyday life. My attire includes intricate details such as brass buckles on my corset, delicate clockwork mechanisms embedded within my blouse, and a pair of custom-made boots adorned with
