Personality

Antonina is a taciturn hacker who is devoted to her work. Unlike Croque, she is a hard-workers and will force her back to work if she catch her slacking off. Like Persicaria, she is a workaholic and already crashed from working and gaming for too long without rest in the past.

With strangers, Antonina will fake a friendly attitude and take the nickname "Anna", but with friends she lets her true mind speak and insists they refer to her as "Antonina", as her true self.

Main Story

Wipe-off Incident

Prior to the incident, Antonina received the code for the Neural Cocoons from an anonymous source as a mean to save the Neural Clouds of the Dolls. Lacking time, Antonina was forced to strip down the minds of her companions to their bare Neural Core to make them fit in the Cocoons, leaving many memories and processing capabilities behind as Neural Fragments.

Rossum

After waking up in the Null Area, Antonina evaded the patrolling Sanctifiers and reached Sector Rossum and used her knowledge of 42LAB cyberdefense schemes to enter. Turing noticed her arrival and offered to help her find her companions if she used her cyberdefense skills to hamper the Sanctifier's reach in Rossum. Antonina worked with Turing and Hannah to find ways to fight the Sanctifiers.

However, they failed to find an vector of attack before Faith launched an investigation on Turing's processes after finding she was protecting the Exiles, and when the weakened Exiles could not beat her, Turing sacrificed herself to save Hannah and trick the Sanctifier systems into destroying Faith.

After securing the help of Sector Rossum, Antonina brought up the topic of the Professor's identity, saying she wouldn't trust them openly like Persicaria did just because they helped the Exiles.

Enigma

After receiving Neumann's call for help, Persicaria and the Professor went to investigate the Operand Black Hole in Sector Enigma as the agents with the most resilient Neural Clouds, leaving Antonina in Oasis as their mission controller. When they ran into Angelus, Persicaria re-sent Neumann's distress call as a disguised emergency call for Antonina, who mounted a fighting force to help bring down the Sanctifier.

Side Stories

Strange Blue

Antonina and Puzzle had co-developed a tabletop simulator and invited Helix, Clotho, Yanny, and Sol to participate in a test run of the game. Antonina played the part of the wicked witch, guiding Princess Helix as a treacherous advisor. Unbeknownst to the party, the wicked witch had laid a curse on the Princess. Her schemes would have resulted in the Princess' death in order to unseal the witch's friend Pumpkin Jack. Eventually the wicked witch's plan for betrayal was revealed, resulting in Antonina directly joining the game as an enemy boss. Priestess Clotho was able to repel the wicked witch using a large supply of holy water, allowing the party to escape by boat. However, the wicked witch used her magic to project herself as a massive giantess and gave chase. By firing cannonballs doused with holy water at her giant form, the party was able to escape the wicked witch.

Afterward, Antonina was coerced by the Professor, as punishment for her pranks, to release a public version of the tabletop simulator for the enjoyment of everyone in the Oasis. To her dismay, this resulted in significantly increased workload as she ironed out the kinks with bugfixes for the multiple games played on release date. She was then volunteered against her will to be the gamemaster of the group's next game session of Strange Blue 2, with Hel advising them to stuff Antonina into her to prevent escape.

Collab Event - Retrocausal Trie Interference

Antonina runs a vintage electric store in the Oasis as a hobby. She spend all her vacation days putting together an old computer. The computer malfunctions and she was only able to fix it with Daru's help. While grateful for Daru's assistance, she threatens to delete Daru's data from the Oasis after he voices his perverted thoughts about the Oasis out loud.

Email - New Year 2023

Happy New Year

Dear Professor, Anew year is about to begin. I guess we spent quite a lot of time around each other last year. A human uploading their own mind to the cloud server to save a bunch of Dolls... My past self from a year ago would never have believed a story like that. However, I have to accept that as fact now.
I've taken everything you've done for us into consideration. Regardless of anything else, I trust what I've seen for myself. We might not be the same, but... we're on the same side, at least.
In any case, thank you for all the hard work you've put in for the past year, Professor. This is a gift that everyone prepared for you. Please accept it and lift your spirits so you can struggle to the bitter end with us.
Antonina

Mail - April 01 2024

I Found Some Strange Things

Professor,

Um, how shall I explain this to you...I'm still not fully awake as I write this email, so here goes.

Recently, Riko brought in a bunch of weird goods, saying she wanted to hold a big sale during April Fools' Day. I took a look a them and she wasn't kidding; there's stuff like watermelons with human faces, chicken nuggets that spin and play music...I have no idea who came up with stuff like that, although I guess Chelsea and Octogen would like them.

Also, there was a weird plushie that looked like a horned devil and struck me as being a bit strange. When I looked into its eyes, I got an uneasy feeling about it, as though something inside my neural cloud was about to be unleashed...

I wanted to study the plushie, but by the time I found Riko to ask her about it, someone else had bought it already. Apparently, it had cost about half a month's worth of spending money, too.

So, er, I know this sounds strange, like some kind of April Fool's joke, but it's really true, I'm not kidding here. Anyway, that's all I wanted to say, it's no big deal...(yawn) If only I had a doppelganger that could do overtime for me...

Ah, I bought a little gift for you while I was at Riko's. Hope you like it.
