Profile


One of the last surviving members of her race from the Red Planet. A teenager at the time of the Zonder war, she escaped the planet by hiding away on one of the last cargo ships and stealing an escape pod. With it's ES-Window technology, she set a rudimentary course to Earth, and crashed nearly immediately into the Atlantic near Coney Island.

As humanity had not yet learned of aliens at that point and she was very obviously nonhuman with her wings - and it wasn't like she could hide them well - she became homeless on the streets and in the sewers of Brooklyn, living on trash, rats and stray dogs. Occasionally she chanced being around groups of people, usually when it was snowing and cold, as her species does not handle cold well.

One night she took shelter in a shipping container and woke up to find herself trapped inside. After a month and past half starved, the container was opened - in Japan. Confused and disoriented, she fled with little thought, spooking the workers and some locals and attracting the attention of GGG. She managed to evade them for quite a long time, until she saw something she never thought she would again: another Red, on that little box humans called a TV, along with what appeared to be GGG members. He seemed, if not friendly, at least tolerating of them.

He'd probably like knowing his race wasn't entirely dead. She was glad to know that, even if he was one of the Soldatos who utterly failed in protecting their planet.

For a time she waffled on what to do and how to go about it. GGG was still after her, and if the Soldato was in league with them now, she could simply let herself be captured. But that would leave her a prisoner to them for who knew how long, and how much torture would she endure? Yet, if the Soldato was free to be seen on public televsion, on the news on TVs in electronic store windows (and later, she'd find, gossip mags - the nose, hot or not?), would it mean she'd be able to finally show herself? No more hiding and homelessness?

In the end, it was rather easy. A few stops to internet cafes revealed he was staying with his handler, the extremely tiny human woman she had seen him with on TV, and her address wasn't kept a great secret. She dropped in, planning to surprise him.

He was surprised, all right, and they hit it off terribly. Their personalities did not mesh a single iota and he was suspicious of whether or not she had been Zonderized, yet he couldn't turn down the last of his kind when she asked for a place to stay. Just a few days, she'd said. Of course, she never left, and over time the three of them became inseparable. Almost. Except that one time she tried to run away, but she did just have an emotional meltdown.

She now has two kids with Guy Shishioh although they were both accidents and Guy didn't even know they were his kids for like five years.

Sketti is almost literally a screeching harpy. She is very loud, hotheaded, brash, has no respect for physical or emotional boundaries, thinks too highly of herself and is generally unlikeable in every way.

But underneath all that, Sketti is literally "fake it til you make it." She has very little self esteem or self-worth, and all of her assholery is a misguided attempt at protecting herself. All she really wants is to be loved, but she is also afraid of it, and pushes it away. J's mate Ellie is the only person she willingly showed her softer side to until Guy.

She calms down over the years as she accepts her makeshift family, but remains hotheaded with a terrible sense of humor.
