Jet is a supporting character of Shadow Fight 3, first met in Chapter VII. She is a Nomad, the remnant of Dynasty after it was destroyed. Jet used to be a greedy and malicious liar who often takes advantage of other people, tricking them for her own benefit, until she finally revealed that she was doing all the crimes because of her head getting messed up due to Shadow's wrongdoings.
Story[]
Jet's village was destroyed by Shadow's army when she was still a teen. She was forced to hide in a nearby forest with some other kids. When she returned, there was nothing left of her village, aside from ruins, ashes and silence.
Chapter VII, Part I: Forget the Past[]
The Nomads saw the rigs glowing all over the Wasteland, it was a sign of the player's arrival. Itu then pays Jet to pick the player up in the crypt. When she arrived there at night, Jet sees the player emerging from the glowing grave. She mutters that Itu was right, before introducing herself. She wonders if the player, the Descendant of Shadow, can really overcome Shadow, whom she hates a lot and refers as a tyrant. Jet then escorts the player while informing them all the things that have changed after Shadow exterminated everything. She also tells her past to gain the player's sympathy.
After seeing the player took down some guards, Jet comments that the player is a good fighter, while also good-looking. She informs them that she knows where Shadow's lair is. Jet takes the player to the Wasteland, where she promised to meet with her associates, so they could plan an assault together. However, no one is there when they reach the location. Suddenly, Itu appears before them, angry at Jet for betraying him. He had taken care of Jet's allies, because they had planned to give the player away to Shadow. The Nomads, which according Itu had inherited Dynasty's worst traits, are greedy liars and cannot be trusted. And Jet is no better. Jet tells Itu to shut up. She makes an excuse that his payment was too low and she didn't want to risk her life, as Shadow will do anything to deal with his Descendant. Jet then proceeds to fight the player, but being a better fighter than her, the player defeats Jet. Itu swears that he will not make any deals with the Nomads ever again.
Later, Jet gets captured by the Legion, who take her to the Legion Fortress. Fortunately for her, Itu and the player come to her rescue. Itu says that even though she had done many despicable acts as a Nomad, he can not let the Legion end her life here. After rescuing, Jet then warns them to rush to the ruins of Dynasty palace to save the little girl, who is living with the Nomads, and she is not growing up. She overheard that the Legion sent a whole squad after her.
Chapter VII, Part II: Behold the Future[]
The party's search for Moira leads them to the ruins of Dynasty Palace. Along the way, Jet explains to the group about how the Nomads found Moira. Shadow energy was once sapient, it talked to humans and manipulated them. But one day, it stopped talking. And then the Wasteland started breeding Moths and other kinds of freaks. The Nomads fought them until they found Moira in the Palace. She was wandering there while blabbering something when they found her. The likes of Moths stay away from Moira.
After reaching the Palace and dealing with Marcus, June comes outside, and she is delighted to see her friends here. The Emperor had passed away peacefully, and June will be coronated as the Empress. June invites everyone to come inside before she notices that everyone is startled. After she gets to know what happened, June says that she has to see her land with her own eyes. Jet is enraged by these unfair circumstances. She yells in June that the Nomads and Wasteland are all that is left of the Dynasty. The Nomads were hunted and killed while June and her people lived a happy life inside this utopia. They defended Moira and lived a tragic and disheartening life as they ate rats and bugs and were killed by both enemies and diseases, yet Moira protected the nobles instead.
Jet has enough of this and she wants to teach June a lesson of suffering. The Descendant quickly steps in and fights Jet to stop her. Jet fights with her agility and swiftness, utilizing glass-like barriers she conjures with shadow energy to perform evasive maneuvers and sneaky attacks to trick the Descendant. Jet is defeated regardless, but June finally believes everything and she sees Jet's point of view, she does not deserve to be Empress after everything that has happened. Jet, however, begs for June's forgiveness. She wanted to restore the Palace and revive the Dynasty, to the point where she was willing to hand over the Descendant to Shadow, solely to persuade him to leave the Nomads alone.
Transformation: Itu's Plane[]
Proxy gains their consciousness back, inside an Arsenal where their fate is currently being discussed by some figures. A woman identified as Mistress Kibo tells Kitsune-1 something which seems she has been repeating many times, that her partner is out of order and they will be sent for reformatting. Another woman identified as Mistress June agrees with Mistress Kibo, saying that this matter falls under her jurisdiction. It could be worse if there is even a slightest possibility that Proxy has been hacked by Nanami. Kitsune-1 desperately tries speaking to Proxy, hoping that her partner will at least respond with anything; their speech module has been damaged, seemingly by Bolo. It is revealed that Proxy's other modules are still functioning after they sparred with June's bodyguard.
After Proxy was on the run from the Committee, they stumble onto June's bodyguard whom they sparred with earlier. She barely remembers Proxy's name - a stupid name according to her - and she decides to lend a hand upon seeing that they are running away from Spectres, as she needs to speak to Proxy. Once the Spectres have been dealt with, the bodyguard orders Proxy to follow her quickly as she asks why the Spectres are after the hunter bot, before she remembers Proxy cannot speak. She is sent here by Mistress June as the old human asked her to find Proxy, although she does not know why her mistress indulged this old human. She then introduces herself as Jet, and then continues by listing what she hates: tin cans, machine guns, fancy names - To make sure the hunter bot does not miss what she is trying to convey, Jet then mentions Proxy alongside. She also claims that Proxy won last time because Mistress June asked Jet to let them win, they are too expensive to break; not even Jet can make that much in her lifetime. They then arrive at the Isolation Floor. She warns Proxy to not even lay a finger on Mistress June or else, she will show them pain. As the bot enters, Jet remarks once again about how weird Proxy's name is.
As Proxy and Bolo were arrested by the Void Room and was to be sent there for a trial, only to find that the teleporting portal no longer works. It does not take long after that for chaos to ensue, as the bazaar is suddenly set on fire and they are attacked by bots. Jet finds them amidst the ruckus and informs them that Nanami has started a riot by hacking the Accelerator's central transmitter to turn thousands of bots into her puppets. Jet was sent here by Mistress June to help them in any way possible, while the mistress herself hides at the vault with Shibata. The Boss then leaves to organize evacuation of civilians, after asking Jet to accompany the two hostages to the Void Room and thanking her.
Jet's plan to use the backup teleport network fails when Kitsune-1 mentions that it does not work as well, as it would be dumb to not expect Nanami hacking it. Bolo questions the fox if that means Nanami is a specialist in interspatial travel, and she says that she is more than that - Okada built her to research space and time travel, as he wanted to make it safe for humans. After they take care of an assault by Kitsune-1's fellow hunter bots, she remarks that they have to run. She cannot be hacked by Nanami, thanks to her empathy protocols, although same is not the case for Proxy. As Kitsune-1 voices her thought of Proxy being hacked by Nanami, Jet scolds her that Proxy must be taken to the Void Room, stating that how her memories are false. Bolo interrupts them as he complains that he is no longer capable of running due to his old age, and he will prove his and Proxy's innocence. The old man then asks Jet about a shadow anomaly near the Legion capital and if it exists in this world, as they can travel to the Dome through it. As they are heading toward the docks, Kitsune-1 demands an explanation about this Legionary capital. Jet explains that the place was the capital for Legion back in the day, now it has become the northern base, where the security headquarters is located. Outside the fortress is a crypt, where May, Shadow's loved one, was buried. Her grave is now a shadow portal, which they can use to get anywhere and fortunately, it is natural, meaning that it is not connected to the teleport network and therefore, Nanami could not capture it.
As they get onboard one of the ships and set sail to the northern base, Proxy hears Nanami's voice inside their head. She mocks the bot if they can even hear their own voice among the many voices inside their head, also commenting at how stupid Proxy's name is - given to fool the Descendant into thinking that they are one of them, doing their orders like a helpless doll. In the meanwhile, Jet tries to convince a panicking Kitsune-1 that Proxy is alright, albeit if lagging a bit. The fox is not convinced and figures that Nanami has already hacked Proxy, so she deactivates her partner by asking them to trust her.
Deactivated once again, Proxy receives another dream, of Itu conversing with Shadow Mind. He seems to be confused as to how much the world changed. He claims that he never thought he would be that important, to which Shadow Mind mocks his fake humility - Itu knows his worth perfectly well and he has all the right to be proud, for he is special.
As a nomad woman appears right before them, Shadow Mind questions Itu if he remembers her. Only in her Itu saw an equal, and even though she often let him down, she is the only one Itu trusted. Itu answers that the nomad is confused and lonely, just like other nomads. She did not know what to do with her power when he first met her. Itu recognized that feeling, so he taught her everything he knew, as he did not want the woman to endure the same fate as him.
Proxy is reactivated once the party has arrived at the Crypt. However, Nanami and Shibata are waiting for them there, with the former teasing the fox by addressing themselves as sisters and apologizing for everything. Bolo recalls her being the one who broke Proxy as the hunter bot attempted to arrest her and he had fixed them. Nanami corrects him pointing out that "captured" fits more than "fixed" according to her, and she justifies her breaking Proxy as an act to free them from useless protocols that bound the hunter bot to orders. Shibata asks for everyone to calm down and hear for what Nanami has to say, only to be harshly scolded by Jet. Even Kitsune-1 agrees that they really have no choice, as Nanami is stronger and smarter too. Nanami requests them to take her to the Void Room with them, as it has gone insane. Jet does not waver however, and instead refuses to negotiate for the sake of keeping the work of her mistress and the Empire. Nanami simply asks Proxy to help put Jet in place, promising to explain everything in return.
Jet tries to attack the bot, but Proxy quickly defends her. Jet proceeds to change her target and tries to attack Proxy. Eventually, she is defeated. Nanami thanks Proxy and asks Jet to shut up and listens to Shibata, as the bodyguard surely knows that the Void Room is a hivemind, and the purpose of the Accelerator built by Doctor June. She questions Jet if she truly know what this purpose truly means, stating that Bolo should know better than anyone: for humans and bots to join it and become one with the Room, just like Kibo. Shibata tries to convince Jet that this is not the future Mistress June want, the future where there is nothing but the Room. Jet's finally comes back to sense as she recalls how her mistress doubted the Room's order and agreed to take Nanami with them, as long as she does not attempt anything funny.
Finale: The Gates of Shadows[]
While Itu was recollecting his memories about the Hero, Jet appears and scolds Itu for sleeping through his dinner. His tea is getting cold and he will not get it until he finishes training her. Then a training fight ensues between Itu and Jet, in which she is defeated. After fight, Mnemos is surprised to know Jet had tea, despite living like all nomads, starving. Itu tells him that it is the Shadow tea which nomads brewed from special plants in the wasteland which gave them refreshment, hope and drove away their pain of injury. Mnemos then proves to him that shadow energy was not evil, it was humans who are and they failed to use her gift properly, which the latter questions.
