CHARACTER
Name: Ingrid Bernstein
Canon: Freezing
Age: 17
Background: Freezing wiki
Canon Point: Before her fight with Satellizer

Personality:
The first thing immediately apparent about Ingrid is her serious demeanor. She rarely smiles—or emotes much at all, really. She is a stoic sort of person, her emotions—positive and negative both—rarely coming across outwardly. She also seems to be generally aloof and lacking in patience for frivolity; though she and Attia are on the student council together and shown cooperating several times throughout the series, when Attia first approaches her during her introduction, Ingrid responds coolly and tells her that unless she has something important to say, she isn't going to waste time talking.

Ingrid is a fierce believer in order. In her mind, rules and hierarchy are absolute. She serves as the student council's enforcer, and due to her past experiences, her punishments to those who break the rules are harsh and unforgiving. She is of the opinion that everything will work out for the better if everyone follows the established order, and that this order was created for a reason. Rules exist to protect the collective, and therefore prevent people from coming to harm, after all. Her devotion to order is, therefore, devotion to protecting the people around her in her own mind.

This can lead to her taking actions that people would deem honorable—allowing Satellizer to correct something that would have given Ingrid an advantage before their fight, for example—or it can lead to her going completely overboard. In that same fight, Ingrid attempts to rip tissue grafted into Satellizer's nervous system out of her back, as well as exceed the length of time it is safe to spend in Pandora Mode, endangering her own health, simply because she refuses to lose and allow her opponent to get away with breaking the established rules. Whether or not her ideals are reasonable, she has no trouble backing them up with action.

Under normal circumstances, Ingrid is capable calmly assessing situations and acting decisively, making the soundest logical choice with the information available to her. However, once she has been provoked, she can and will respond with extreme and often excessive aggression. For example, she initially calmly lectures Satellizer about the flaws in her battle tactics during their fight, but as the situation escalates and it becomes clear that Satellizer will not be cowed, her own actions become increasingly frenzied and forceful. Ingrid is an intense person, and she only becomes more so when pushed.

She is also extremely loyal, in part because of her concept of order. She sees abandoning a comrade—something that often functionally means leaving them to die—as unforgivable, and she would never break rank and weaken a battle formation. When it comes to friends and people she admires, that loyalty is only more intense; she nearly came to blows with another Pandora when they claimed the student council's former leader, who had recently retired, was a traitor. Saying such things about someone she cares for is simply not something she can accept.

Strengths/Weaknesses:
As a Pandora, Ingrid's physical capabilities are far above those of a normal human beings. However, the alien tissue that grants her these abilities also causes mental and physical corrosion. Hypothetically, this could cause her to "Nova-ize," or turn into something very similar to the extra-dimensional aliens she was altered to fight. It's not likely, but the stronger a Pandora is and the more often they push their abilities to their limit, the faster this corrosion happens.

Mentally, Ingrid is extremely focused on the concept of order and rules, which can cause her to be too rigid and unreasonable in how she approaches situations. As with many Pandora, she shows a tendency to be emotionally volatile and excessively violent when provoked.

Abilities:
Ingrid is something known as a Pandora, which is a physically enhanced soldier created for the purpose of fighting giant extra-dimensional aliens. This grants her speed, strength, and durability far beyond that of a normal human, as well as several other abilities.

In terms of strength, Ingrid was able to break through concrete walls with a single blow, both while unarmed and otherwise. Pandora also heal extremely quickly, and are capable of taking damage far beyond what a normal human can while still surviving. They have also been shown to be able to do things like reattach severed arms when medically assisted.

Pandora are able to utilize something called a volt texture, which allows them to recombine matter to mumblemumblepseudoscience create material. This has been shown to be used to make clothing, reinforced armor, and weaponry. Ingrid's volt weapon is a pair of bladed tonfa. She is extremely proficient in their use, her attacks being quick and lacking in excess movement. She is also able to follow her opponents' movements without the use of her eyes. Of all the third year students in West Genetics, she is ranked seventh.

As a third year student, she is able to utilize something called high end skills. More specifically, she is able to use both accel turn (an ability sharply increasing her speed in a single boost) and tempest turn (an ability creating a number of shadow doubles of herself for a short period of time).

Ingrid can also utilize something called Pandora Mode, which consists of armoring herself and allowing her to operate within a freezing (movement restriction) field unassisted for a duration of five minutes. Exceeding that length of time causes a sharp increase in the stigmata's corrosion effect.
