Personality:
Usually serious and not very talkative, Megumi has few friends and usually prefers remaining aloof. She shares very little information about herself and expects nothing from anyone else - their personal story is their business, not hers. She does however care deeply for those few friends she has.
Megumi is most assuredly what one would call "a cat person" - she loves cats, and has one of her own, a female mackerel tabby she's named Tigress.

History:
Megumi was born the only child of a Second-generation Zoid mechanic on the outskirts of Romeo City. She lived in a small apartment above the shop with her father, mother, and a half-dozen stray cats who drifted in and out of the shop from time to time. As such, she grew up around Zoids, and from an early age her father taught her how they worked and how to work on them. An attentive and intelligent pupil, she learned quickly.
The same could not, however, be said of her studies in school. While intelligent and remarkably quick, she was simply uninterested, and did just enough to pass her classes with a reasonable grade. She also began to show a keen interest in piloting, and took to asking increasingly precise questions of the warriors that came to the shop for maintenance and repairs, then sneaking down to the shop at night and supplying what she had learned from careful study of the cockpits of those Zoids that were kept overnight for more extensive repairs.

Megumi was 16 she first piloted a Zoid. Taciturn and with few friends, she nonetheless fell in with the Black Streak, a small but efficient gang of self-appointed "protectors" who used customized black Gun Tigers, and she rapidly acquired one of her own. A quick learner, She proved to be a skilled tactician and became an excellent pilot. Tired over the petty squabbles and endless turf wars, she left the Black Streak gang after a couple of years, intending to become a Zoid Warrior. With this in mind, she sold the Gun Tiger, having returned it to its original red color scheme.

For years, there had been one Zoid in her father's shop that nobody really cared about: A largely wrecked EPZ-003 Saber Tiger, missing most of its armaments and too damaged to function, though its core remained active. After leaving the Black Streak, she used the money from the sale of the Zoid, supplemented by the money she earned as an employee in her father's shop, to begin repairing the antique Zoid.
Due to the incredible scarcity of parts, she opted to salvage parts from damaged Zoids on battlefields, and used the additional income generated by selling those parts she salvaged that were of no use to her to slowly, gradually buy the necessary parts and weapons to repair the Saber Tiger.
After three long years, the Zoid was fully repaired and Megumi, having customized its paint scheme, applied for registration with the Zoid Battle Commission as a Zoid Warrior.
