History
Gina is an unusual case, even as androids among the Fen go. She originally awakened as an AI, and even that awakening was non-standard. Originally, when Benjamin had handwaviumized the computer that she had awakened in, he had the desired result that the computer was merely enhanced beyond the bleeding-edge standards of modern computers. It was only with some extensive work on character studies for Asuka Langley-Soryu of Neon Genesis Evangelion and the later installation into his car that the AI that came to be known as 'Gina' awakened.
With the recent information of Asuka fresh in the RAM modules, the handwavium selected her as a template to build from. Of course, once this 'Asuka Clone' discovered what became of the character she was based on, she immediately desired to distance herself as far from Hideaki Anno's mind-dump that was Neon Genesis Evangelion as she could.
Benjamin did his best to be a good friend to Gina and while she was antagonistic at times (and still is to this day) she received his personality quite well. However, Benjamin's detractors, most of them belonging to factions that believe AIs should be free to come and go as they please, say that it is merely a psychological quirk much like Stockholm Syndrome that ties Gina to Benjamin. Both have told such detractors that they're just jealous and to kindly knock-off.
Originally, an android body for Gina had not been planned - instead she was supposed to be inserted as the AI for the first Blackbird-Class ship, the SS Magnificent Midnight. When the Midnight's AI suddenly manifested before the computer system was even completed, though, it left Gina without a place in the emergent-faction what would become The Roughriders.
This was resolved by implanting Gina permanently into an A.C. Peters-type android body. Since then, Gina has stepped in as Benjamin's right hand woman and the Executive Officer in over-all command of the Roughriders (with Benjamin, of course, being the over-all Commanding Officer).
Also, since Gina has taken on a human form, she tends to stay by Benjamin's side, especially at Conventions. When asked about this, Benjamin and Gina say that it's merely to drive off the Femme-fens attracted by his remarkably virulent case of Tenchi Masaki Syndrome, though some suspect that the two have a much closer relationship budding. Neither of the two has said nor done anything to confirm or deny such claims.
