Dr. Amelia Grey Felsen-Bern
In Liquid Mercury RE's continuity, Amelia is one of the head scientist's of the corporation Apollo Technologies.- Mad Scientist: Arguably the most mad scientist out of all previous versions of The Scientist. She's much more expressive and borderline manic at times. She's conveys much more arousal and glee to her Bio-Metal servants, totally disregarding their hate toward her. Amelia is also more prone to frantic anger when something doesn't go her way.
- Take Over the World: Explains plainly to Miller/Prima that this is her end goal. She wants the world and wants it to remember her family's house name after years of keeping it from falling to obscurity. She'll use her Bio-Metal servants to achieve this and become the next caesar. Even after she's gone Amelia plans for her legacy to be her new robotic race ruling over humanity.
- Robosexual: While turning Miller into Prima, Amelia shamelessly admits to June that this is her fetish. Amelia is very observant and particular in shaping Prima's body to her preferred likings. She freely fondles and rubs her hands on Prima’s body, calling her cute or adorable and her admiration of them often refers to how lovely they look. One of the first commands she gives to the brainwashed Prima is to prove she loves her, Prima proceeds to give a kiss so enjoyable to Amelia she almost forgets that she has two hostages in the same room.
