Backstory ideas for my tech character

[Octogoat]

I'm currently in the process of breathing new life into a character that has become stagnant. She's a biomechanical android that controls robots and has limited time field manipulation. That is all I have so far. Any ideas are valued! Here is her inspiration art:

So far I've got that she doesn't know that she's a gynoid and that she thinks she's a cyborg who suffered a horrible accident and has amnesia.

Does she have "conventional" parents* or is that part of her amnesia? Based on that (literally her very origin point) you can branch out a framework of milestones for her history and flesh those points out on an ad hoc basis. I do this with a lot of my "rp by concept" characters. 

 

 

*by which I mean something like a Dr. Light from Megaman or Dr. Tenma from Astro Boy, in which her parents are aware she's synthetic even of she doesn't (initially). 

 

And if not, then you can work from the point of her self awareness and dev out how she came to realize she can control robots, time, etc.

Dr. Thaddeus Arclight knows what she is but won't tell her.

Some notes I've added:

 

Does not have a psychic presence

 

Has a heavy mech suit called Alpha strike

 

Has a praetorian resistance pulse rifle her father gave her suggesting he might be praetorian

 

Her heart is literally gold as a tech component
