Rita has never admitted to being an inventor. She much prefers the grandiose title of "weaver of dreams." In truth, anyone who has met her instinctively checks their coin pouch, because her massive blunderbuss, ominously named "Funeral," is just as likely to be aimed at an uncooperative employer as it is at an enemy. Rita believes truth exists only in the instant of eruption, and this extreme philosophy of verification has become a constant headache for the townsfolk. After all, no one can tell whether her next "live test" will target nearby rebels or the crumbling clock tower at the town's center.
Story
After destroying three facilities that attempted to confiscate her weapon, Rita has become a familiar name on wanted posters across multiple city-states. So-called research funding means nothing to her. What she truly enjoys is scavenging high-purity materials from the ruins she leaves behind. Now, crouched in the shadows of the wasteland, she adjusts the dark, exaggerated barrel of her weapon. Whether any governor is willing to fund her today does not concern her in the slightest. What matters is whether the distant sound of rebel hooves will serve as a worthy test for her latest concoction.
"When that awe-striking blaze rises, all defenses become a joke. This is not a transaction, but a one-sided judgment. That oppressive barrel exists to bury the mediocrity of a dying age, and Rita, who wields it, requires no one's approval." She tore the ornate praise letter from an admirer into pieces without a second thought, finding those soft, embellished words less useful than a damp fuse. For someone like her, who walks the edge of reason, volume outweighs logic as the only truth worth following.
"Still hoping those brittle steel plates will stop the coming thunder? Or that your flimsy spear can pierce the armor of the future? Abandon those laughable illusions. Rita's fury will burn all mediocrity to ash." Given enough materials, she can turn even the crudest armor into a deadly trap. This warning, once posted on the shattered gates of a ruined prison, is now preserved deep within the archives of the tribunal, a reminder to future generations: never attempt to recruit a madwoman who sees destruction as art.
