Usually, business casual clothing that varies slightly with her mood and weather. Ever since her first encounter with the police, Lilian prefers to dress in unassuming clothing, something any casual businesswoman might be wearing. Functionality is Lilian's focus, aiming to blend in while still looking nice and remaining comfortable. Her hair is usually well-maintained, with obvious effort put into it, one of her few vain comforts that doesn't stand out in her field. Omnitech is mostly a namesake, and rarely seen in person, but when forced to make an appearance, Omnitech usually wears dark clothing that varies with her needs. Most often it consists of grey or black pants, shirt, and gloves; all made of kevlar. Matched with a grey long peacoat with sewn-in trauma plates, giving her a bulky appearance. Finally, she wears a specially made helmet, which looks like some sort of unorthodox motorcycle helmet made almost entirely of blackish opaque glass.

Blonde-hair, with eyes like sea-glass. Lilian's otherwise unassuming build belies a cunning intellect that only shows through deep in her eyes, a fierce and intuitive spark that is impossible to be missed by others like her. Though, at times her eyes go completely blank as she loses herself in thought. Careful to act the part of the eccentric engineer, her demeanor often includes exaggerated gesticulations and quiet musings. Strong cheeks round down to a not quite heart-shaped face, which almost always has an ambivalent smile quietly turning up the sides of her mouth.

Chocolate, sweets, and whimsical dreams. Lilian's head is perpetually in the clouds, propelled far off world with her inventions and wild ideas, as such she likes things that are honey-sweet and soft likes cashmere. Lilian also loves looking into many different scientific theories, anything from Quantum theory to Gastronomy is more than enough to start a seemingly endless conversation about the practical applications, much to the dismay of people trying to strike up a casual conversation.
D I S L I K E S
Bullies, dumb, and rude people irk Lilian to no end. The idea of people squabbling amongst themselves while the rich and powerful profit off of their quarrel makes her feel ill. Even worse are heroes who mindlessly do their work, it is a waste of a gift for someone to blindly follow the corrupt laws of man. Owls both worry and unnerve her, reminding her of a nightmare she frequently has.

Lilian is usually quiet, preferring to be spoken to rather than to speak, she only expresses herself when she feels strongly about something, or is otherwise trying to get her point across. Don't suffer fools, is the motto of her life, and one can see that readily in the way she conducts herself. People of substance are hard to find in this world, and Lilian doesn't have time to be wasting on people who are anything less. However if Lilian does think highly of someone, she is more than willing to ask for their advice.
On the surface, Lilian is every bit the busybody engineer, busy with her work and making sure "the Company" is doing well. Though anyone that spends more than a little time with her will quickly learn that she's a darkly intellectual young lady with a clear plan for the future. When it comes to "substance" Lilian prefers eccentric hobbies, such as her long-form math equations, plotting celestial bodies, and virology.

Lilian's father is in prison for a crime she committed, and her mother is nowhere to be found. She has no other siblings, but her mother was a "powerful and mysterious" woman, or at least that's what Lilian's dad always used to say. Lilian couldn't care less for either of them, she is her own woman, and nothing is going to change that.
Her father always used to tell her, "There are two absolutes in life, family and Vodka." Lilian agreed with him on one thing, and to this day she has remained an individual in her life. The closest thing she has to family is a gray cat named Lyle that she adopted after having found it as a stray.

Born to an abusive and alcoholic father, Lilian's early life was destitute and miserable. Her mother's face faded with time, she simply stopped showing up one day, and Lilian never bothered to find out why. For some time, hunger and fear were the lots she knew, until her powers manifested. Then it was easy to steal a little money from an ATM or to siphon some money onto a trashed Visa gift card. Life was good for a little bit; until the police started to wonder why her IP address was constantly logging in and out of bank accounts.
After a half-assed investigation, Lilian's father was deemed the culprit and Lilian found herself in and out of various Foster care families. After the third family, Lilian had herself legally emancipated and entered the world as a Legal Adult. Using her power to forge references, she started as an apprentice engineer at an aerospace company and has used that career as a proving ground for her ideas. A bit of insider-trading and "breakthrough" inventions later, and Lilian found herself targeted by a villain looking to recruit her for his cause. Confused, and not at all considering herself the bad guy, she set him up and had his sanctuary raided by the police.
Since then Lilian has done her best to keep a low profile, many of her inventions never see the light of day for fear of attracting undue attention again. Her earlier work created a self-sustaining flow of income and without a need to siphon money, she has become increasingly shut-in to focus on her work. It wasn't long before her experiments became a series of increasingly illegal projects intended to bring about a technological singularity. The world needed to grow up, and her hand would be the one to do it, eventually...
Often she spends long quiet weeks in the wilderness of Virginia, the only place she can truly "unplug," and relax. Only the recent happenings between Hero and Villain alike have brought Lilian out of her exclusion; some scumbag exposing superhumans and their work. It was a wrong she would have to right at any cost. If the world knew the truth, her Father would be free and she would have to postpone the Singularity, something that could doom all of mankind.

Ever since her powers manifested, Lilian has been able to hear machines, the frequency they give off and the waves they transmit are as readable as an open book to her. After some short practice, Lilian learned to manipulate this data to make machines behave in ways she wanted, along with it came an increased understanding and awareness of the technology. Whether one calls it technomancy, technopathy, or being Bluetooth compatible, Lilian can make most modern technologies do her bidding without a second thought.
T A L E N T S
The safest vault on the most obscure parts of the internet are but lost libraries to Lilian. She excels at data-cracking and breaking into things she shouldn't be able, but that doesn't mean Lilian is a stranger to street-fighting. Over the years, she's developed a few tools to help even the playing field between her and others with more combat-oriented powers, and relentless practice has honed these tools to deadly efficacy.
S T R E N G T H S
Surprising adaptability has kept Lilian alive on more than one occasion. Rarely does one expect someone to pull out a laser pointer capable of burning through metal, even less so do they expect you to use their phone as the coordinates for a drone strike. Lilian's power may not have the brute force of others, but its easily adaptable in modern society and has a wide range of uses. Her power also never turns off, even working while she is asleep.
W E A K N E S S E S
Keeping a cool head is hard for Lilian, but only when faced with issues that she takes personally. While most things simply go unacknowledged, there are a few key insults that send her into a rage. The fiery spirit within her makes her more than willing to angrily go toe-to-toe with someone who undoubtedly would leave her dead, even if only to avenge her pride and vanity. Also, her power never turns off, and being in machine dense areas for long periods takes its toll on her.
