Erimo

"There's definitely humans that are deviants, but they wear that fact with pride. Some assholes might insult them, but it doesn't matter. What's important is that they do what they like doing."

About
Erimo is a half-human, half-Poppin tinkerer and inventor, originally hailing from the Kingdom of Humpty. Erimo lived most of her life in the capital city, her relationship with her fellow Poppins having grown strained, especially thanks to a grudge held by the Poppin boss, Murokuji. While living in town, she became friends and drinking buddies with the former king of Humpty, Hatter.

Erimo met Aster, her future husband, while out drinking, and the two struck up a friendship that would lead to numerous favours for Aster and business opportunities for Erimo. These include Erimo giving Aster a letter of recommendation from her Poppin mother, inventing and organizing the construction of the world's first steamship, upgrading said steamship to become a submarine, and developing and marketing a new line of vibrators.

The latter proved unusually impactful, since Erimo's marketing campaign caused Laertes, senator of Hamlet, to threaten charges unless she was released into the custody of her family. As Erimo had no family, Aster proposed marriage on the spot, and Erimo moved to the town of Stallion in Eden, happily married and in compliance with court orders. There, she also enjoys a sexual relationship with another of Aster's wives, Towa. She continues inventing to this day, secretly planning to construct giant mecha to aid Aster and the rest of her family in combat.

Appearance and Personality
Erimo's amiable but aggressive personality tends to make for fast impressions, and has helped her make easy friends among children and old men, but very few women and people her own age. She likes to invent small but advanced machina for children to use for toys, which she constantly refines to improve their design and safety. She is also a notorious social drinker and a conoisseur at that, which has earned her many friends among the middle-aged and elderly drinking crowd. Possibly because of her poppin blood, Erimo is also a huge and shameless pervert, speaking in a crude manner and bringing up sexual matters often. She works primarily in the sex toy industry, aiming to produce unique and revolutionary devices that she sells on her own.

When given the opportunity, Erimo has proven more selfless than she might otherwise let on, if self-deprecating. She has rescued children (and Aster) from danger, but also tried to stay out of sight after her move to Stallion, under the assumption that Aster would face social ostracization for marrying a poppin. When put in a position of power however, Erimo quickly takes control of a situation, especially if it involves the construction of some ludicrous machina contraption.

As a half-human, half-Poppin, Erimo is relatively short for a human but tall for a poppin, and is slight in build.

Abilities
Erimo seems to have inherited many of the Poppin racial abilities, including strong resistance to temperature and the ability to exist under water or even in lava without breathing. While she has sometimes hinted that her abilities may not be quite as strong as a true poppin's, their limit is certainly well and beyond that of a human. Erimo also possesses the special knack poppins require to construct machina, though this comes hand in hand with the usual sexual obsession shared by her mother's species.

Trivia

 * Erimo and Towa are the only ones of Aster's wives to enjoy an explicit, ongoing relationship with any other person: each other. Because they are the same gender, Mother Eve's (notoriously faulty) blessing does not consider them to be married, but this also means they are not punished for marrying outside their current limit of one partner (Aster) each.
