Biography: An illegitimate child of scientist and company owner Robert Sentelen and a maid who worked for him named Eileen. Bobby was usually found in and about her father’s labs and although no one ever directly spoke to her or her mother (oh no! that would mean acknowledging that they were Roberts family XD) it was always known that Bobby was Roberts child (she was promptly named for him too lD). Because no one ever spoke to her and her parents were always too busy to spend time with her, Bobby spent most of her days wandering around as a ‘little boy’. She always wore a baseball cap, with shorts and an oversized t-shirt.
Because her mother couldn’t afford a babysitter, Bobby usually hung around either the company headquarters or the scientist labs (Wherever her mom was cleaning that day). She always enjoyed watching the scientists work but when she got into some mischief that almost cost her her life, her father decided she needed a bodyguard and got her one named Ardal, who he also paid to teach her so she wouldn’t have to go to public school (though at the time said bodyguard didn’t know he was going to be a tutor/babysitter combo). Things seemed to be working out just fine for everyone until Eileen got pregnant again, after which Robert secretly changed his will. In the meantime, the members of his oard weren’t too happy about all the way Robert was handling things and made a deal with an infamous villain named Skyche that if he killed the family, that they would fund him and make their labs available to him when needed.
So on one of Roberts many late-nights, trying to perfect a creation in his lab (and Eileen hanging around because she loves him lD), Skyche attacked, blowing up the lab, and killing Robert, Eileen and their unborn child. Bobby and Ardal were in a different part of the building at that time and despite Ardal suffering the majority of the flesh wounds *by protecting Bobby D8* they both came out alive (much to the company boards dismay). After a few weeks in the hospital and a tense funeral, the will Robert had secretly written before his death was presented. In it he stated that he left all his assets to his first born son, which was actually the unborn child Eileen was carrying. Bobby was then given the legal rights to the company. The board leaders were able to retain the majority of their control, seeing as Bobby was only 8 and didn’t really know how to run a company anyway.
The accident, however, had slowly begun to affect both Bobby and Ardal, and soon they were both experiencing strange symptoms. Bobby slowly found herself more aware of the things that were going on around her and became eager for information and knowledge, which Ardal provided by constantly taking her to the library and buying her books. But soon, Bobby had read through every book and manual in the area. She begged Ardal to order her books from all over the world, no matter what language and he complied, albeit a bit concerned. One day she shared with Ardal her realization about who killed her parents, after which she took it upon herself to not only take back her father’s company, but to fight off men like Skyche. She studied law and business and anything else she thought would be helpful. Due to the fact that the will had stated all the assets went to her father’s son, she decided that she would need to make herself appear more masculine in the future, seeing as she wouldn’t be an androgynous child forever.
Her first creation was a small earring she wore to make her look and sound more like a boy. She also eventually invented a belt that, with the touch of a button, could change her from her super hero identity to her business man one. The only problem with Bobby’s new found intellect was that she often gets severely debilitating migraines after inventing something and occasionally she mixes up some of her thoughts because she has so much information stored in her mind. This usually results in failed inventions or sudden momentary daze (which can happen during battle too if she’s not careful lD).
When Bobby turned 10 she took back her father’s company and for a while, operated without a public face, choosing instead to quietly run the business. Throughout it all, Ardal helped her as best he could and found out, through his own secret connections, about a place called ‘The Underground’, where he told Bobby they both could better learn to control their powers. Bobby, now 14, and Ardal both began going there, working to control their new abilities. When she turned 16 she finally began acting like the public figure her father was and became the world’s youngest corporate head. Currently at 18, she’s a business man and inventor by day, and a member of The Underground by night.
