Spoiler: Appearance
Show
Often presumed to be an 'ordinary' mutant with simple rabbit-based powers, Clover is an anthropomorphic bunny girl with cream colored fur and a darker honey head of hair that is clean if scruffy. She wears scavenged clothes, often changing them out apart form a hover-biker's jacket whose fauther material over time has become a dingy gray. Clover has become rather attached to it, as well as a long red scarf. Her age seems somewhat nebulous as her rabbit features give her a youthful countenance.
As Kamen Rabbit, her armored cyborg form, Clover's body is covered in metal and ceramic plates of unknown material, mostly a dark, almost black iron color with silver trim and piping. Her 'helmet' has bulbous red eyes and her middle is covered with a noticeable belt like band with a flat disc stone dead center. Only her scarf remains on her body after she changes.
Spoiler: Backstory
Show
Dr. Hoan is considered unethical even by the Megacorp standards of 2099. Claiming to be the true and only successor to the mysterious High Evolutionary from the legends of the past, he has successfully recreated and repurposed his own genetic strains of New-Men that he has dubbed the Animoids. Anthropomorphic creatures far stronger than humans, albeit modified further with heavy cybernetic enhancements, their loyalties and capacities can be programmed right in, ready to serve as paramilitary grunts, assassins, security, enforcers or any other number of expendable (and easily replaceable) roles. He sells to the highest bidder when he doesn't make use of his own creations himself and sees (almost) every animoid as a replaceable pile of parts. He has also helped make certain individuals 'disappear' without a genetic trace and is often hired to supply corps with battalions of monsters who also can't be traced, often playing multiple sides of conflicts. Though his services are still sought after, the corps have become more and more discrete about hiring out large numbers of the animoids. Hoan is happy with this arrangement...
Though he wishes that clients would stop asking about that infiltrator unit model he was working on...
Clover started life as Subject R0112-X. Her original purpose was to serve as an infiltrator with an alterable human form. New genetic codes could be given to her in case she needed to bypass genetic based securities. Hoan had hoped upon her success he could develop more complex infiltrators and less...messy assassin animoids. There was only one problem. R0112-X's Power core was, in a then-effort to save resources, a composite remade from the retrieved and recycled cores of previous animoids. Hoan blames "her" failure entirely on this; it's not like it was directly HIS fault. As a result of using a seemingly faulty core, R0112X was, ironically, a bit too human, too sapient. She refused to change out of her rabbit mode, was too terrified to follow even the simplest of orders no matter how much she was threatened, and much to his frustration the composite core prevented him from simply re-wiring her brain. She was set to be dissected and recycled when Hoan's then-lab was carpet bombed by a Megacorp he'd swindled, forcing him to flee. Clover was abandoned.
The bombs didn't kill her of course. Clover stumbled her way into the slums of Nova York and was discovered hiding in a dumpster by a missionary known as Sister Anya Wagner. She worked for the St. Patrick's Cathedral and neither knowing nor caring what brought Clover to such a state, took her to a woman's shelter. Not only was she given a name (after Clover spent an inordinate amount of time staring at a painting of a four leaf clover with a field in the background) she was given what she would later call a "crash course in humanity."
Staying at the shelter, however, was also not to last. Over a month after she moved in, remaining Freakers (following the initial fight of 2099 Spiderman and the Vulture) wanted to take their frustrations out on any organization tied to St. Patricks, and they attempted to raze the place. Backed into a literal corner, terrified not just for herself but the other women in the shelter, Clover underwent a sudden transformation, accessing an 'armored' form that came about from her repressed powers and the composite core in her body finally synching in a moment of desperation. New instincts took over and she defeated all the Freakers with her bare hands, and saving most, if not all of the women too. But Clover, not understanding what had happened, or how, fled, terrified of herself.
Weeks later she has slowly reemerged in public eye. She has gradually wandered through the slums of Nova York, meeting both scary and downtrodden people. Those who hurt, and those who help. But she hasn't gone back to St. Patricks (because she doesn't know how Sister Wagner or the others would react to her) and since then, rumors of an 'armored rabbit' have spread. She's inadvertently crossed paths with muggers, arsonists, psycho killers and even other animoids. Her acts of self defense lead to her gradually coming to the conclusion that if she can't suppress her powers, then Clover has to do SOMETHING with them. She continues to find that higher purpose, trusting that its path will reveal itself sooner or later.
Spoiler: Personality
Show
Clover is a mess of dualities.
While she is painfully shy and timid, and barely knows how to act as a human, there is an overreaching sense of naïve altruism and kindness that motivates her. If she can get past any initial instinct of RUN or HIDE, she finds herself wanting to help people, even if this comes from a desire to stop being afraid and/or to not be feared herself. Her time at St. Patricks has also led to her believing in God at face value, despite the awful, ugly world that surrounds her.
Some unknown spark rests inside of her, ready to go off under duress, or if confronted with something so overwhelmingly wrong or simply Unforgivable. When she's armored up, and only when she's armored up, Clover's fears are overridden. She becomes far more violent, willing to risk herself without thinking of any consequences, wholly focused on ending the "threat." Outside of her armor she is terrified of her own strength, constantly working towards resolving or putting herself out of potential conflicts.
Spoiler: Abilities
Show
Most animoids: Cyborgs who appear to be animal based mutants, only their enhancements allow them to transform into larger/stronger forms with robotic arms, or laser blades, drone detachments, shoulder cannons, jet packs, etc. All of them have a "Power core" somewhere inside their bodies (Never in the head) which allows them to transform. Destroying the core does irreparable damage to an animoid if it doesn't violently kill them outright.
Kamen Rabbit:
-Clover has mildly improved physical attributes as a rabbit "mutant" as well as enhanced hearing.
-Power Form: Clover gains true super speed, enhanced superhuman agility and strength, armored durability.
-Is a cyborg; while it has yet to be seen if she can age, she has demonstrated invulnerability to electrical shocks that could kill a fully grown human, held her breath for far longer than humanly possible, and has survived on very little food or water since coming to Nova York. She's not sure if she even needs to eat.
-A ocular search mode that can locate Power cores in other Animoids. It is unknown if she can use this to locate weak points in other enemies, but it in theory can work on robots.
-The ability to briefly generate energy "pulses" through her extremities, IE her hands and feet. Her 'Rabbit Kick' attack has thus far been shown to be the most powerful of these when she throws her armored weight behind jumping strikes, the impact is nearly quadruple the force of normal strikes, if not more.
-Undiscovered power core location (it's not her belt; the belt is just a foci)
-She can also use her 'belt' to generate painful flashes of light in a pinch, though this "counts" as a use of her punch and kick.
-Unknown Potential: While she's not anything close to an omega, Clover has wiped the floor with a number of foes, including other animoids whom she was NEVER intended to be able to overpower. Her maximum jumping heights, strike power and speeds are inching higher, if very, very slowly.
Weaknesses: Loud, Hypersonic, Noises. She has finite amount of energy to charge the Rabbit Kick; she can't keep indefinitely using it. Her core is effectively a black box to most scientists if she's ever grievously damaged. Clover also isn't a martial artist nor has she had real combat training. No real weapons in cyborg form.

Clover's Power core is...appropriately enough, her heart. However her heart is on the
right side of her body, not left.
Despite being a lab grown organism, cloned and genetically modified, Clover would be determined to (somehow) have a human soul by any mystic or supernatural capable of detecting such things.
This is not the case for most animoids...
Spoiler: TOP SECRET

A possible explanation for Clover's latent 'heroic' qualities perhaps lies in the fact her core was refurbished from animoids Hoan had sold who were used as "Search and Rescue" operatives. Specifically they were all destroyed rescuing Corp VIPs/family members from a kidnapping. Hoan discretely recovered their remains, unwittingly using their repaired core in an animoid specifically designed to replicate human behavior. Through sheer, one in a million luck this combined all together to form who Clover can potentially become.
Spoiler: List of Animoid Types
Show
Canine Base/Iron Hounds
Basic "model" with enhanced physical abilities, senses, and 1-2 firearms. Dogs or Wolves; work great in packs
Big Cat Base/ Bronze Lions
Comes singular or as prides. Lion is a catchall term for tigers, lions, and leopards. Even stronger than the canines, their metal forms are heavily armored, and given enhanced strength and or speed
Bird Base 1/ Steel Crows
Flying units that while are more fragile compared to other animoids, they can keep pace with most vehicles; come equipped with weapon systems or, rarely, physical power enhancements
Bird Base 2/ Diamond Eagle
Hoan has only made one of these, who serves him as his right hand man/assassin/pride and joy. Armor, can fly at super sonic speeds, fire arm weapon systems. He refuses to clone it/sell copies of this one.
Rhino Base/ Onyx Rhino
Hoan only made one of these too, but for whatever reason he scrapped the entire line of Animoids and has put the single one he made into cold storage. Is terrified of this one for some reason.
Sea Life Base/ Ruby Shark
Hoan is currently working on this one; the prototypes have either been too violent, too stupid, or unable to survive the polluted sea environment
Insect Base/ Copper Stag Beetle
Abilities unknown, current prototypes showing immense promise.
Ursine Base/ Silver Bear
Abilities unknown, upcoming prototype
Rabbit Base/ Ceramic Rabbit
Clover.
