Painwheel seems to recognize the name "Medici", but carries out her mission. Soon after she was transformed and had her newfound abilities tested by Lab 0, she was sent by Valentine to deal with a Medici operation (who apparently had a recent run-in with Big Band).
Violent and unstable as a result of these experiments, as a precaution she’s mentally controlled by Lab Zero’s powerful psychic director, Brain Drain.
Valentine comes across Painwheel, and, finding her blood suitable for their next experiment, takes her back to Lab 0 under Brain Drain's orders.Īfter Valentine delivers Painwheel to Lab Zero, she is implanted with the synthetic Buer Drive and Gae Bolga parasites and infused with experimental Skullgirl blood, transforming her into a monster. Lab Zero sends The Last Hope to their hideout to rescue the refugees before Lab 8 takes care of the thugs in the building. However it was not Filia's fault, as at some point, Painwheel was kidnapped by the Medicis and kept with refugees from the No Man's Land, including Peacock. In Filia's story mode, it's presumed that Filia wronged Painwheel in some way, though it is never specified what exactly she did. She was friends with Filia who also attended her school before she lost her memories and joined with Samson. Once a normal schoolgirl named Carol, Painwheel lived in Maplecrest with her parents. It is implied by Alex Ahad that the removable parts of Painwheel's Buer Drive are kept in here. When Painwheel is being introduced to her new class (in Filia's ending), she is seen carrying a cello case. It is unknown if the scars on Painwheel's face after removing her mask are permanent or not. The blades attached to Painwheel's back bear a slight resemblance a Japanese shuriken throwing star, although their original design was closer to her namesake, the pinwheel. Buer Drive is a reference to the demon Buer who was said to be a demon leader who commanded fifty legions of other demons it having the head of a lion and a body with five goat legs for multi-directional mobility. Gae Bolga is a reference to a spear in Irish mythology Gáe Bulg which means "Spear of Mortal Pain/Death Spear".

It can also possibly be derived from Caroline, which itself is a feminine form of the name Charles, which means "a free man", relating to her motivation of fighting for her freedom. By itself, it can be related to music and mean "joyous song". There are mixed accounts as to the origins of Carol, her real name. Her title is a portmanteau of the words "pain" and " pinwheel". All in all, Painwheel is a very kind girl who just wants a normal life. Afterwards Painwheel and Filia watch the sunset together. Instead of living with her parents, she lives in the ASG Labs, where she is actually happy there. Painwheel underwent changes as revealed in Filia's ending as she was shown to be very positive and happy about starting over and getting a new lease on life (thanks to Filia's wish) overjoyed seeing her new class telling them it was a pleasure to meet them. Despite that, the soul of that scared young girl still lives on inside this monstrous body, desperately fighting off the onslaught of voices that would control her.Īside from all her hateful attributes Painwheel enjoys peaceful and beautiful things such as flowers, dogs and walking on a beach during the sunset. This could be due to the monstrous transformation she's been put through.įueled by rage, she draws her power from her pain and fury. She has a powerful hatred for Valentine and ASG Labs and judging by her lists of dislikes she also dislikes people and her own body. However, it was revealed that Painwheel was able to keep control of her mind over Brain Drain and was able to think and behave for herself.
Painwheel's personality tends to be initially mistaken at first glance by her appearance, she has the form of a monster and is expected to kill and bring harm under orders from Valentine, Brain Drain and her creators. Painwheel is one of the playable characters in Skullgirls.
