==Technical details==
First manufactured in 1956, the LGP-30 was an early mass-produced computer. It is quite simple and was small for its day, measuring about 26"x33"x44" and weighing 740 pounds. It is mostly remembered today as the computer on which  the legendary hacker Mel Kaye programmed and for its role in the development of chaos theory. 

==Character details==
====General====
LGP-30-tan is depicted as a slight woman with blonde hair and strange, oscilloscope-patterned eyes, and dressed in casual, butterfly-themed clothing. She often carries a lightweight fiberglass javelin. 

She is an extremely heavy sleeper and her caretakers must undertake a complex "ritual" to wake her from her slumber. Once conscious, she tends to be easy-going for the most part and more than willing to help on any number of jobs; however, she suffers from "magnetic flux in the head", an illness which makes her prone to occasional bouts of chaotic behavior - ranging from homicidal rage to intense introspection. This and other factors have gained her a reputation for being formidable and dangerous, but the rumors have very little basis in reality. 

LGP-30-tan mostly worked in the fields of science and mathematics, and helped form chaos theory through her assistance in discovering the Butterfly Effect and the concept of strange attractors. It is unknown if this research contributed to the development of her reality-warping powers, and little has been documented about this ability. 

Today she is retired and often spends time in Germany and Boston. Although she is relatively unremembered in wider computer society, she holds a place of high honor in the Hacker community due to her inclusion in the legend of Mel Kaye, the archetypal "Real Programmer" of hacker lore.
