“When this is done, Jerkface, I will hold your tarnished and melted pin up as my trophy as your smoldering ship marks your pyre, and the final resting place of your crushed and broken corpse! ”

—Spensa to Jorgen Weight

Spensa Nightshade is a cadet at the DDF Flight School on Detritus. Her callsign is Spin. She is the daughter of Zeen Nightshade (callsign: Chaser). She is the main character of Skyward.

Appearance and Personality

Seventeen years old with brown hair and purple eyes and is 151 centimeters tall. Spensa would often lash out at people who threaten her, using a wide and somewhat graphic vocabulary to insult or attack them, before realizing how stupid she sounds.

History

Spensa lived in the Glorious Rises of Industry with her mother and grandma, whom she referred to as Gran-Gran.

Spensa accidentally finds an old ship in a cavern. Shortly afterward, she is accepted into Captain Cobb's Flight School class. Unable to take up residence at the school overnight because of Admiral Ironside's fears, she stays in the cavern with the ship. After recruiting her friend Rig to help her, they repair the ship; which is the host of an AI known as M-Bot.
