CHARACTER: Shiro

The character herself is an homage to my personal god, Shirow Masamune and all his strong, smart female lead characters. This character started as a modification of some of his soldier girl artwork years ago when I was still coming into my own. What started off as a forgotten amateur trace has slowly been developing a life of her own.
She still bears a resemblance to Deunan Knute, though oddly enough that's because she's got short blond hair and is not actually connected to the original reference pics. Isn't that interesting you people who make comparisons based on one shared element?

So far she's seen more modern military action and is closer to a Metal Gear babe. There are no clear plans for her future as yet beyond future missions for the Project Extraction cast.
Darker Eve then developed a design for a high tech super soldier costume that takes her closer to the realm of Mjr. Kusanagi and super ninjas or even super heroes!


She is a Russian secret agent that works in east asia tracking black market trafficking of drugs, weapons and people. She is an expert in urban and wilderness tracking and survival, stealth, hacking, hand to hand and close quarters combat. Her special interest is in human trafficking and modern slavery. This leads her to work closely with a professional extraction team.
She takes her job seriously and is very focused on her mission. She rarely gets to relax so when she does she goes wild.
