Gotta like it

So there I was with my bio-less tech blaster.
Had low bids in on the winged and rocket boots but little chance of
getting either.

Then I finally finish the bio (shorter than I wanted as usual.)

A while later I find I've gotten the Fairy Wings recipe and put it up
for sale (copied to test first to try them but they looked ridiculous.)

Ka-Ching!

21 million minus Wentworths fee and a bit of a buying spree gets me all
3 boot types to try for an aggregate total of 6.6 million, leaving
plenty for enhancements later.

The Bio:

No one knows where the gauntlets came from, only that they were found in
the fossil remains of a Tyrannosaurus.

Treated as a hoax until tests could not identify the material they were
made from, they ended up treated as 'evidence' that aliens visited Earth
millions of years ago, and at least one of them got eaten.

This spawned the radical idea that perhaps the meteor strike that caused
the K-T extinction event may have been a deliberate attack made by the
surviving aliens.

Years of testing and handling revealed nothing and they remained a
mystery.

Until Sharra Williams, teenage daughter of the scientist making the most
recent tests, decided that they'd make the perfect addition to her
halloween costume, and put them on.

Then they woke up.

The gauntlets contain an AI of inconceivable power and have somehow
bonded to Sharra and can't be taken from her.

Naturally her father didn't believe her, until she solved 5 "unsolvable"
math problems in 2 minutes.

Quite a feat from a C- student.

Wanted more but no more room.

I like it.

It leaves so many directions to go in and the - i'm guessing robotic
gloves - are some of my favorite pieces.
