Editing Bakuda (section)

==Personality==
Bakuda is very arrogant, monologuing to the Undersiders about her status as a genius and her ability to think "twelve moves ahead before you've even decided on your first". While she is implied to be highly intelligent due to possibly studying at Cornell University,<ref name="4.8">[[Shell 4.8]]</ref> she displays a lack of common sense. Setting off a bomb to breed unpredictability is what allows the Undersiders to escape from her grasp, and her bombing campaign against Brockton Bay is what leads to the villain alliance against the ABB.<ref>[[Hive 5.1]]</ref> She takes having her intelligence questioned poorly—notably, snapping at and threatening Canary after she expressed doubt that Bakuda would be able to free herself from her restraints.<ref name="I6"/> Tattletale opined that she was coddled and praised most of her life, and being harshly criticized at some point was what led her to trigger. Skitter speculates that it had something to do with struggling academically.

She acts theatrical, with exaggerated body language, and Skitter remarks that she likes to talk.<ref name="4.8"/> Bakuda also seems to enjoy taunting people, doing it to both Lung and the Undersiders on separate occasions.

===Relationships===
====[[Lung]]====
Lung considers her someone who thinks in a similar manner to him, "in terms of power and fear",<ref>[[Interlude 22.y]]</ref> their shared biracial origin was another factor in recruiting her.<ref name="22.y e2"/><ref name="WoG1"/> She willingly served as a lieutenant to him and learned many lessons from him.

===Reputation===
Her assault on Cornell was more than enough to put her on the Protectorate's radar.

Her bombing campaign got her quickly sent to the Birdcage.
