Student Highlights Week 1: Rodeo Nova

Name: Rodeo Nova

Sex: Female

Race: Human-ish. Probably.

Hometown: Dim Underchilly

Strengths: Loves dogs, excels at the use of irate expressions and has been identified as a possible candidate for the X-52 giant robot*.
*Assuming it ever gets out of the shop.  The Council is dubious of Price-Gouger's claims that it needs a new muffler** and tires.
**The Council is relatively certain that giant robots do not use mufflers, but also admit that they are not mechanics and just because it doesn't and has never had a muffler doesn't mean that it's impossible for the muffler to break.

Weaknesses: Tendency to attack books and people who don't see loving dogs as a strength.

History: Rodeo Nova is one of the few students to come from Dim Underchilly, the last town before crossing over into the Dark Undercold. It was her dream to become a Super wizard from a very young age, but the town of Dim Underchilly is one torn between loyalty to the Deathlords of the Dark Undercold and to the Super Wizards of the Kingdom of Happyshine. With her parents being loyalists to the Deathlords, it seemed unlikely that they would allow her to become a Super Wizard, so she ran away to the Tower. She did exceptionally well on the entrance exams so she was accepted as a student.

Her parents have since demanded her return and that the Super Wizards "Be responsible for once in your stupid, stupid lives." The Council has been quoted as responding "Nah."

Rodeo Nova still visits her Dim Underchilly for awkward family holidays.

Notes: Rodeo Nova was the leader of the short-lived Super Wizard Book Club. We really should have looked at their slogan ("Beat the crap out of a good book") before approving the club*, but now there are no books in the library and student clubs are evaluated far more thoroughly before being approved.
*Our bad

Rodeo Nova strongly disagreed with the Tower's decision to disband her club, screaming about her 'Righteous crusade to end the tyranny of literature', ("Do they think they're better than us just because they're words on paper?!") but very soon after became distracted by the ten foot deep bottomless hole in the ladies restroom.

The origin of her intense hatred of the written word is unknown. Any attempt to bring it up has caused her such blind rage that has made even the most advanced Rabies students nervous.
