ᛗ CHARACTER Name: Motoko Kusanagi, frequently referred to as the Major. "Motoko Kusanagi" is technically an alias itself, as the Major doesn't actually remember her name prior to losing her original body. Canon: Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex/2nd Gig
Brief Info: The Major is from a permutation of the far-off future of 2035 where society at large is diffusely cyberized, with many people, bereft of any cyborg enhancements, will still have some kind of "cyberbrain". This allows them access to the wider net and even other people, with "diving" into these brains and "ghost-hacking" them is an incredibly common occurrence across the series. Motoko herself has also been almost completely cyberized, with only her original brain and spinal cord remaining intact following her transition to a fully prosthetic body.
She's the commander of Public Security Section 9 after spending years serving Japan's military, and displays a high amount of skill in hacking and tactical combat. As a person, she's very often serious and lost in her own head. She also drives like a bat out of hell and doesn't care about most social mores. She's something of a realist and very much believes in actions over words!
Vessel Type & General ideas: I'm mostly decided on some kind of beastly creature, just because of the novelty for her. The Major is certainly used to operating different humanoid bodies, but she hasn't had a flesh and blood body since she was roughly around five years old or so, and a monstrous body would be super fun to explore on top of that.
That being said, I'm not sure what kind! I'm leaning towards something cat or cat-like, but other than that, I'm not married to any particular idea!
