Description
Annette, codenamed Forgetter, operates with the spy team Lamplight. Her past is defined by trauma; found abandoned in a train station trash can, she was taken in by a woman named Matilda. Matilda forced plastic surgery on her to resemble her deceased daughter, an operation that crushed one eye, requiring Annette to wear an eyepatch. Matilda routinely abused her, citing unease with Annette's unreadable nature, ultimately inflicting severe amnesia that erased all memories predating her spy training. Officially recorded as 14 years old, her true age and origins are unknown. Lacking identity documents or pre-amnesia recollections, she was named "Annette," becoming a state ward placed first in a religious boarding school, then a spy academy.
She possesses long, wavy ashen-pink hair usually tied in two sections, an eyepatch, and a frequently pure, innocent expression. This appearance starkly contrasts her personality. While superficially guileless, she operates devoid of conventional morals, philosophies, or fear, driven solely by fleeting interests and intense curiosity. Her behavior is unpredictable, rejecting requests arbitrarily or pursuing personal whims. Annette's emotional core is profoundly empty, lacking central desires beyond a wish to grow taller. Yet this emptiness enables extreme fixation; when provoked into wrath or obsession—termed "losing herself"—she becomes consumed by relentless bloodlust, rendering her exceptionally dangerous. This unpredictability and capacity for obsession define her, challenging even intuitive teammates.
She exhibits extraordinary engineering prowess, excelling in gadget creation, trap design, and flawless mechanical reproduction. Her inventions surpass her nation's technological capabilities, earning her status as Lamplight's "final weapon." She often employs this talent for pranks, like rigging explosives throughout Lamplight's mansion targeting its leader, Klaus, regularly causing destruction. She prioritizes whimsical projects over practical applications unless personally motivated.
Her relationships are complex and volatile. She holds no attachment to her abusive mother, Matilda, initially showing indifference upon reunion. However, after Matilda's actions endangered Lamplight members, Annette orchestrated her assassination, trapping Matilda in a shipping container with a sabotaged toolbox concealing a bomb that killed her. Conversely, she formed an unconventional maternal bond with teammate Thea, recognizing her as a figure providing anger, praise, guidance, and support—qualities she associates with motherhood. She affectionately calls Klaus "big bro," seeking hugs while simultaneously targeting him with traps. Her interactions with teammate Erna involve frequent pranks exacerbated by Erna's misfortune, straining their relationship despite Annette considering Erna a friend. She also manipulates teammate Sara's romantic feelings toward Klaus, aiming to "pay Sara back" for past support.
Her development reveals incremental emotional growth. While largely unchanged in her core amorality, her attachment to Thea deepened. She expresses dependence during Thea's vulnerable moments, explicitly stating she does not want Thea to disappear and acknowledging enjoyment in their collaboration. This contrasts her earlier detachment, highlighting a nascent capacity for selective loyalty within Lamplight.
