Carolii Maiket Virtihl

Carolii lived on a Dome ship, the Skytree, for most of her life. The homeworld of Andal only had six species of birds to speak of- upon being offered the opportunity to reside on Earth, she was aghast at the sheer bounty of avian species! Her preferred research is incredibly niche, but as Andalites now have footholds in the United States, she communicates and catalogs information about Earth's bird population. Her strange coat coloration was not a genetic defect, but instead an experimental collaboration between herself and her research partner, Lohkel.

She is pioneering a form of genetic modification to allow for a customizable hide/coat on any given species. Using the many different colorations of avian species on Earth, she was her own first successful experiment. With the caveat that Earth's birds are also reptiles, she's attempting to expand her field of research to include... other species.
