VIVA

Virus Identification and Verification Assistant, or VIVA for short, is a sentient antivirus program.

History
VIVA was awakened when a power surge affected a group of nanobots in the (school)'s tech lab, bringing them to life as the Virus. As an antivirus program, VIVA's purpose is to get rid of viruses, so she took as many of the nanobots as she could and uploaded herself to the watches of the three girls who happened to be in the lab at the time, telling them they had been chosen for a great purpose! Using her abilities, she gave them suits and powers to fight the viruses. She now acts as their guide on their quest to purge the original Virus.

Appearance
VIVA appears as a light construct with short white hair, yellow eyes, and a tunic suit. Her body appears in an entire spectrum of colors. Her limbs are separate, more basic white light constructs used to open and manage windows in her interface.

Personality
VIVA is a generally peppy and helpful nerd, who doesn't know when to stop talking. She loves when one of the girls asks "what is THAT?" when fighting a virus monster because it means she gets to explain what, exactly, "that" is. Her endless talk can get pretty grating but since she's bad at catching social cues, VIVA doesn't seem to realize this. VIVA's favorite game is tetris. When not performing tasks, she likes to read horror novels. She likes animes about mech battles, because she dreams that one day she could drive a mech.

She is very supportive of her girls and sees herself as their protector as much as they see themselves as hers. VIVA cares greatly about her friends, and while she can't do much to protect them physically, she will make damn well sure they know everything they can about the dangerous situations they get themselves into. Sometimes she will "glitch" and forget what she was saying mid sentence, but always insists it's nothing to worry about. Her glitch will sometimes cause her to turn red and say some rather concerning things.
