Muv Luv Alternative: Desparation

Shoulder length black hair with white and red highlights, often put into a braided bun. Blue eyes. A slender build. Has a sizable acid burn scar on her right cheek, just below the eye, gives way to more scarring along the right side of her body, should anyone ever see that much of her. Pilots an F-5E Tornado like the rest of the No. 111 Squadron.

A bit tomboyish in her behavior and speech, she still has a distinct feminine side. In the aftermath of the failed attempt to retake the Lyon Hive, the acid scarring has left her extremely self-conscious about her body. The incident also made her obsess over cleanliness, due to the difficulty of recovery from various infections. Responsible and reliable, she pushes herself as close to perfection as she can, in order to not be a burden on her squadmates. Can be a bit oblivious at times, struggling to properly read the social tone in a room.

Willow joined the 111th just before a collaborative UN attempt on the Lyon Hive. During the unsuccessful operation, her TSF was rendered inoperable and her cockpit was compromised near the corpse of a Fort Class BETA, the corrosive fluid of its stinger partly leaking in, scarring her face and much of her right torso and thigh. It's a veritable miracle to have lived through such an experience, let alone recovering enough to return to the cockpit, she has since dedicated herself to perfection, seeking additional training and TSF maintenance at every opportunity.
