Biography
Picnic in Rohanda
A version of Neeta once had a picnic with Jenny Everywhere and Octobriana on a sunny afternoon. Octobriana found the spot — a public park near a pond in Rohanda in one universe — while Neeta, who was also the driver, brought snacks and drinks. Though it took a moment for Neeta to get settled, with her tail making it hard to sit on the ground, she ended up enjoying herself with her two friends as they whiled the day away trading stories of their respective adventures. Even after the sky became overcast, none were in a hurry to leave. (PROSE: Openly Sauced in a Public Domain)
Mission Doppleganger
In one universe, Octobriana was present on Earth during the Second World War, working for the U.S. Space Force (who were mysteriously unaware of her nature as an alien). After the planet Doppleganger unexpectedly appeared in the solar system, America and Russia came to an agreement for a joint space reconnaissance mission that would beat Germany to the potential prize, and ascertain whether there was any life on Doppleganger (and, if so, if it was hostile). Neeta was the one who escorted the team of three, comprising Octobriana, Miss Victory and Jenny Everywhere, to their spacecraft. (PROSE: The New Mission)
At the Barbelith Baristas
There were, as a matter of public record, multiple Neetas living in the Interstitial City. One was candidly photographed by a roving photosec bot while seated at a table outside the Barbelith Baristas in the Bohemian District. (PROSE: Barbelith Baristas)
At the Neptunian Orbital University
Neeta was one of the students in physics engineering at the futuristic Neptunian Orbital University in one universe, residing in dorm six. When she first met Jenny Everywhere, Laura Drake considered Neeta a better student and scientist than her, citing how Neeta had invented “these particle-tracking goggles which, I’m fairly certain, are beyond the actual current tech capacity of the System”. (PROSE: Extradimensional Experiments)
Behind the scenes
Genesis
Neeta was created on August 4th, 2012 by M. Lee Lunsford on DeviantArt. Even more completely open-source than Jenny Everywhere, the character does not require any kind of attribution license or disclaimer. Their original description read:
This is a completely open source character that anyone can use. Neeta was created by polling my viewers on various traits and things until we had the basic idea for what she looked like and who she is. Name: Neeta Occupation: Mechanic and Junk Scavenger Race: Alien Body: Made of a hardened crystal like substance. Hair: Redhead Eyes: Black with Gold irises. Special Gadget: Super tech goggles with computer interface help her in her mechanic work and sifting through junk for hidden treasures. She is particularly energetic and joyful, but the work she's done with other scavengers also has taught her to be a bit selfish, as it's how they've learned to survive. |
—M. Lee Lunsford |
In the comments, fellow DeviantArt user Robert Pavelcheck made a few further suggestions about the character.
…Already coming up with another mechanic-scrounger character for her to argue with. Also, I'm going to assume unless told otherwise that being made of crystalline-stuff, her eves act like camera lenses and can zoom in on microscopic details. Other-scrounger has to wear bulky goggles to get the same effect, and is mildly annoyed at this inequality. Another assumption: her red hair gets its color the way many birds and insects do, by refraction rather than pigment, as her hair is also crystalline and jointed like her tail, just extremely fine. If you shine a light through her at the right angle, most of her body will appear the same red as her hair. If she got really clever with light placement, she could design a garment that would make her appear to glow orange. I picture it in midnight-blue-ballgown. I like to analyze stuff. |
