Scythe/Lore
Background
Scythe is a Phighter coming from the region of Lost Temple.
Timeline
Appearance
Scythe has spiked swept-back horns going through her white cowboy hat with a teal Lost Temple insignia on the forest-green hatband directly on the front. The hat has an inline gold border topside on the rim. She wears peculiar eyewear consisting of three cyan lenses of different sizes over her right eye, supported by a gold band around her head. Her left, uncovered eye is white. Around her neck, she wears a small, forest-green scarf.
She wears a fancy white suit jacket with two small gold buttons connected by a chain, with an inline gold border accent on the lapels following around a popped collar decorated with small gold spikes, paired with a teal shirt underneath and a forest-green necktie. She wears two-toned forest-green pants with diamond patterning and is held up with a forest-green belt in the belt loops with a gold buckle. She wears white horse-riding boots with gold accents and gold spurs.
Her right arm is a prosthetic, with white plating around the forearm and upper arm decorated with gold accents. Black wiring connects the upper arm with the gold metal socket on her shoulder, while the elbow consists of a large, gold and black joint. Finally, the hand is made of black and gold plating. She wears a forest green glove for the left hand.
She wields her namesake laser scythe gear, modified into a hybrid with a submachine gun, with her right arm. It features a white body with gold grips and trigger and a black barrel jacket with a gold tip. A neon teal tube connects to a gray base on the butt of the gun, where the laser scythe's 'blade' is connected to. Near the butt of the gun are two gold wings with teal accents, connected by large black screws, which flip depending on its form. In scythe form, the weapon rotates and extends to reveal a teal grip, while in gun form, a black rectangular ammo magazine is attached.
Scythe has a darker skin tone in comparison to the rest of the Phighters, being a light shade of gray rather than the typical white.
Personality
Lore
Medkit altered her gear for her as payment[4], and he’s also the maker of her prosthetic arm.
Relationships
The Broker and Medkit
Scythe is Medkit’s and The Broker’s boss and is in a very close relationship with the latter. She’s is chummy towards Medkit and wants to vouch for him to "the father".
Ban Hammer
Scythe is Ban Hammer's mortal enemy. She constantly teases him in dialogue, she calls Ban Hammer "Banny", much to his ire.
Katana
Scythe and Katana have known each other in the past. Despite Katana's threats of killing her, she replies by quoting, "How violent! It's funny how some things never change."
Scythe tries to persuade Katana to rejoin the cult again but Katana refuses with the prospect of "bowing down to that monster".
On one occasion, they seem to share silence with each other. This is the only dialogue in the game to be like so.
Vine Staff
Scythe likes Vine Staff but is disliked in return. She sees her curse as a blessing. She has remarked directly to Vine Staff about having her horns on her wall.
Rocket and Subspace
Scythe has threatened Rocket over his insults towards herself and The Broker, and she threatened to kill Subspace once due to him being the one who’s hunting down Medkit.
