CANON INFORMATION
PERSONALITY
ABILITIES
Adaline is a full-conversion cyborg and she is proud of this. Her model is a personalised unit as it is modelled after what she would have looked if she was still human thanks to Eveline being a 'base' of sorts. (With some aesthetics changes being made to make her look a little different from her sister for safety concerns.) She has a series of ports behind her neck, allowing her to connect into machines and other cyborgs.
The model is of high standard and gives her the appearance of an organic human woman if not for the fact of the ports on the back of her neck. Not only is her body made of durable material resistant to water erosion and electrical shortening, but it has been extensively modified with top-of-the-line military cybernetics that have been customised for her role in the Watchmen Division as both scout and muscles that comes along with hand-to-hand combat training from both physical training and having programs installed inside her.
Her current strength is equivalent of four tons/6000 pounds and, if she dangerously pushes herself to her very limits, her strength can reach that of five tons/10000 pounds. (To give one an idea of how strong she is: Her hits at her strongest can have the nasty impact of a speeding M939 Truck at top speed.)
Though not a brilliant hacker, that job being given to someone with much more patient than what she possesses in the Watchmen Division, she is able to hack into the cybernetic brain of an individual if she connects with them via wire or if they're on the same channel on the Neural Net. She can either see/hear what the individual sees/hears or cause herself to seemingly 'disappear' in front of the targeted individual's very eyes as shown in the left .GIF above for up to five minutes. It takes a lot out of her to do since it requires her full attention and energy to pull off, meaning she uses it sparingly unless the mission calls for her to do so.
Those abilities of hers, of course, are not available in her current environment as she isn't connected to the Neural Net anymore. She could possibly regain these abilities if URSULA allowed her to link up and connect to her systems and gives her (naturally limited) access to the drones and such.
(That's a big 'if', of course, and Adaline is not holding her breath that it'll happen.)
INVENTORY:
One (1) armour set of hers that she's already wearing, the communication lines with the Watchmen Division and most of its systems disconnected from the mainframe. It is capable of active optic camouflage thanks to the stealth system found in it. The system first scans the environment and tries to track down all transmissions and lines. When that's done, it will isolate those transmissions and lines and read the current scans before using it to adapt itself from detection so it'll allow the wearer to effectively 'blend' into the background. If the person moves while cloaked, it'll cause a faint translucent distortion due to the system not being able to factor in sudden mobility and needing to compute that for the transmissions and scans.
(Basically, as she would describe it to new faces in the Division, her neat hi-tech armour makes her invisible from surveillance unless she moves.)
The system of course isn't useful in Adaline's current environment for the mean time. It'll need to run independently all by itself as there is no mainframe to connect to and receive computing aid from. Currently Adaline does not have the programming knowledge (or patience for that matter) to do it by herself but it is possible after trial and error.

CANON INFORMATION
In Adaline's world the marvellous is reality, no questions asked. There are planets in the galaxies that hold their own inhabitants. Aliens, humanoid or not, who can visit Earth and have diplomatic relations with the leaders of the free world. Magic exists and can be channelled and used by those who know how to wield it through the use of the mystic arts. Able to channel it through multiple ways from using music to blood sacrifice. Science has made stellar breakthroughs in technology, bioengineering, and much more. There are multiple groups and organisations that are dedicated to the cause of protecting Earth, the universe, or whatever the group will deem worthy to protect - No matter the cost.
The advancement of technology and robotics science is much more prominent in Asia compared to other continents. With metahumans and aliens not considered citizens or even humans, the field of studies related to them are not encouraged or even allowed in several countries. As a result the scientific fields such as robotics, cryonics, artificial intelligences, and, most importantly, cyborgnisation with the last field becoming the popular one to invest investment and experiments in. It paid off with Asia being the first continent to have cyborgnisation becoming the almost-norm for certain countries such as China, Japan, Korea, and so on.
This has also caused a rising threat of cybercrime that happens to be facilitated and enabled by the new norm of citizens getting cybernetic bodies/implants however. People getting hacked and used in crimes as puppets, shoddy and counterfeit cybernetic parts and implants being sold to the general public, criminals becoming stronger thanks to illegal implants. Various governments have reacted in different ways from adding more restrictions on who is allowed to go under cyborgnisation to creating groups and agencies that specifically tackled this new wave of crime.

IMPORTANT WORLDBUILDING ASPECTS RELATED TO ADALINE/EVELINE
» NEURAL NET
Another term for 'the Internet' in some countries and cities located in Asia. The term was coined by noted roboticist Radhika Bergbreiter after the first successful connection to the Net from one of the firsts full conversion cyborg.
» KUBERANO
A thriving city located in Asia, a colony under the purported care of China. With a population of over 7.5 million citizens, 80% of them have opted to become cyborgs with prosthetic bodies. As a result of this has caused a sharp increase in cybercrime. Kuberano is also they city where Adaline and Eveline were born and raised with their mother, Lian Zhang.
» ASILEINARKE ENTERPRISES, INC. / ASILEINARKE ADVANCEMENTS
A diversified multinational conglomerate that it is headquartered in a city located in China. Asileinarke Enterprises is owned and chaired by Leonardo Asileinarke, father of Adaline and Eveline Asileinarke. The CEO and senior vice president of Asileinarke Enterprises and The Asileinarke Foundation, stationed in Kuberano, is held by their stepbrother, Daniel Asileinarke.
While primarily known as a military defense contractor that specialises in cybernetics and enhancements but it has over a dozen umbrella companies involved in varying sectors of the economy ranging. These umbrella companies are found around Asia and the companies' focuses also differ from one company specialising in energy to another specialising in biotech.
» THE WATCHMEN DIVISION
The Watchmen Division is a secret governmental branch that focuses on investigate cyber-crime and terrorism cases. It is a small branch that consists of only ten members in total with only a reserve of five more in case one falls during action or cannot step in for some reason. Adaline is a member of this and is basically both the scout and the muscles, specialising in reconnaissance during the initial stages of the mission and then brute force and strength during her 'favourite' part of the mission AKA beating people up.
» METALLEUEIN DESTRUIRE / KAAYK'S DISEASE
An autoimmune disease where a when a metal implant has a bad interaction with human body tissues and causes the metal to grow out and eventually puncture the skin from within and destroy the person from the inside out.
Named after the first person to be infected and to be claimed by it, a Sweden cyberneticist known as Floris Kaayk, it has a 90% fatality rate upon confirmation of the illness. Most patients have only two years to live if they undergo intensive and intrusive care soon as confirmation of the illness has been given totem. Eveline is victim of this illness, contracting it at the age of 33-years-old and succumbing to it eight months later.

PERSONALITY
Despite initial concerns that the twins' polar opposite personalities would cause conflict between the two consciousness, with the worst case scenario being that of a personalty struggle between the sisters which could cause great harm to either woman, it proved to be an unnecessary fear with Adaline's more aggressive personality being the prominent one than that of Eveline's more quiet and demure one. Though Adaline admits they had good cause to be concerned upon discovering the drastic measures Adaline had taken to ensure her sister would stay with her. Given how different the two sisters are, it must have baffled a majority of the Watchmen Division on how on earth the two sisters could coexist in one body.
Not that it would have surprised certain people from the Watchmen Division who had the singular pleasure of knowing both Adaline and Eveline.
Adaline had always been the more assertive one, the more aggressive one who took charge of things thanks to her ruthlessness and her dogged determination to never back down form any challenge. When given a task she'll do her best to carry out the task, unwilling to admit defeat at the risk of her own life. While most certainly not a joyless individual, she knows how to have fun and kick back, her approach of how to spend a Saturday night is rougher than most people would like to try out. Her idea of having a good time with friends often involves rough physical activities that would make more 'fragile' people wince at the mere idea of trying out. She likes training and fighting, exercising and sparring.
That doesn't make her cruel, of course, but it does make her less likely to feel sympathy for others if they make mistakes and it gives her less patience for those who keep making mistakes. She'll make her thoughts and opinions of someone in the work field known if they're hindering the group or somehow stalling the mission but she, at least, knows to hold her tongue at social gatherings. That's a skill she worked hard to earn since most social graces don't come easily to her. She has no interest in making it easier for her. This doesn't make her be considered 'attractive' by individuals who would have liked her softer and more delicate when it came to her approach of many things and situations but she cared little of others's opinions. In Adaline's eyes long as she got the job done then she had little concern or consideration for others' feelings during a mission.
Eveline's personality is a far cry from her older sister. She had always been the favourite of their families and it isn't hard to figure out why if you got to meet her in person when she still possessed her own body. The woman is demure, sweet, and hesitant to hurt feelings; she's someone who will always try to find a good word for someone and encourage people. Eveline is (was?) gentle and soft-spoken soul, someone who is honestly happy to be sociable and friendly to new and familiar faces alike. While some thought she was a bit of a pushover or easily swayed by her emotions to the point she could be indecisive from stress, Eveline had a good heart and wanted the best for those she loved.
She certainly had a more subtle touch when it came to approaching people, critiquing them in a way that didn't offend the person in question. It was known that she was both careful and thoughtful, choosing words that conveyed the message she wanted to send while, all the while, making sure no parties involved felt slighted our called out in a mean spirited way. She always had people's feelings and thoughts in mind whenever she did something because she couldn't do anything that could hurt someone. Always careful with her words and how she was viewed by others, Eveline was much more adept in mingling and socialising than her older sister ever will be. In fact, often it was Eveline who stepped in and helped Adaline get through a social even they both happen to be attending. Between the two of them she was the one people liked and admired for her kindness and her generosity.
While some would suspect there to be rivalry between the twins due to their day-and-night personalities that was far from the case. They spent a lot of time together in their youth, their own weaknesses balanced by their sibling's strengths which carried on to their adult lives. As a result Adaline is overprotective of Eveline, seeing herself as both a sibling and a parent since they were young and all but poured herself into making sure her sister was comfortable, was happy, was alive and well. She didn't trust a lot of things or people but Eveline? Eveline means so much to Adaline due to Eveline's unwavering devotion and endless patience with her older sibling. The woman knows she's burned bridges with other people in the past but knowing Eveline was a constant in her life meant a lot to the woman even if she tried to keep people's at arm's length most of the time.
So the idea of living in a world where one of them doesn't exist or died is unbearable for Adaline. Her stubbornness and her protectiveness and her loyalty for those who manage to earn her respect and love can be a bit… extreme at time. If there's a chance to help them, no matter how improbable or how insane it sounds, then she'll jump into taking that oppurtunity than let it pass. Case in point: Downloading the conciseness of her sister into her own mind when she lay dying, the idea having come during a case she had just completed. Adaline refuses to go peacefully into the dying light. She would rather rage and fight and scream than go quietly into the night, the idea of giving up easily a notion that makes her stomach crunch.
Eveline's feelings are more mixed since finding herself sharing one body with her sibling. Though she does feel existential anxiety now and then, wondering if she's really herself or components of memories and traits Adaline brought to life, she doesn't want to go away easily herself. She's often philosophical about her current state if the right moment come, wondering the implications of it all. Her will is certainly strong enough to influence her sister, able to tell her what she thinks and gives suggestions or outright impulses to the body part she wants to affect or move. Adaline can ignore those impulses and those suggestions if she's forceful enough and she certainly is. But she will let Eveline take the lead now and then so she feels like she's doing something. She doesn't like giving up control easily but Eveline will always be the exception for her.
Because at the end of the day it obvious to many that both sisters need one another. Adaline needs Eveline's gentle way of handling people and Eveline needs Adaline's strength to stay strong in front of people and not be swayed away from her choices. Despite Adaline's insistence that she desires to be a lone wolf most of the time and has no need of others' approval, the near loss of her twin made it clear that even Adaline needs friends and people to trust and confide in. A man is not an island after all.
