It's obvious that a lot of thought went into her, and it's definitely paid off. And you're the first person I've seen who bothered to include the strife techniques. The originality is really impressive, and so is your ability to stick to the theme. Awesome job!
My only question: Is there a reason for the greek letters and the j? Is she in tune with ancient troll Greece or something, or do they have notable significance in science and engineering? I have the same question about your symbol. But taking not of the immaculate details in the bio, I assume there must be one.
Just a really nice troll overall, I can't find anything to change! Keep contributing your 'junk' to the fandom, sis!

With regards to the Greek letters, and the j, it all cycles back to engineering. In electrical engineering a lot of Greek symbols are used to represent certain variables, constants, operators, and units of measure. The Greek letter Omega (Ω) is the symbol representing the standard unit for resistance, the ohm. Sigma (Σ) is the operator symbolizing summation (Σ[1,2,3]=6). Mu (μ) is used to represent several different tings in engineering, including the magnitude "micro" meaning 10^-6, and the permeability of a material. Alpha (α) is a very standard variable, used in engineering much the way x is used in algebra. The "j" is a reference to the imaginary variable "i" which is representative of the square root of -1. In engineering, however, the variable i is already used to represent a dependent current, and therefore the imagenary variable "i" was replaced with "j" to avoid confusion.
They symbol on Selora's shirt is the symbol for ground in circuit design, it represents a perfect zero voltage such as the circuit being connected to the physical ground, or to a point at an infinite distance.
I didn't think to include all this information in the bio because it felt very tedious and superfluous. Typically whenever I try and talk about engineering people zone out.
Thanks so much for your feedback! It really means a lot!

I don't think it's tedious at all. I find it admirable that you went into such lengths to make your character's roots as detailed as Andrew Hussie's defaults. In my opinion, any fantroll without this kind of background data could use a lot of work. You fantroll seriously surpasses most that I have seen in terms of quality in research.
As for the quirk, it was a wise decision to tone it down (except on occasion of anger, of course).
And if those are engineering puns, you're beautiful.

Be the Funny Engineer Troll
You cannot be the funny engineer troll. You have no idea who that is. By all means you can be the engineer troll. You already are the engineer troll. But you will likely never scale high enough on the Echeladder reach the rank of Double Entengineer. Such expectations are just ludicrous. The closest you can come to psiielectric hilarity is your sneaky replacement of "what" with "watt" whenever you type, but even that has become second nature to you and lost most of its jocularity.
...
But seriously, thank you so much! Your opinion means a lot to me!

Thank you! She's still very much a work in progress as far as characterization goes. I may make more sprites for fun as I start to develop more of her character!

Cool! I can't wait to start developing her character more! Especially the fun little details, like her god tier, her strife specibus, and her Ancestor.
