Some of the cupboard doors in Erin Pontifis’s lab have been removed, allowing the contents—colorful figurines of various sizes and forms—to be permanently visible. Other cupboards are filled with data chips and old-style printed books that feature an image-based storytelling medium. Her fascination with these stories carries to her walls, which are covered in beautiful murals she has painted in her spare time. She adores Senfina Krizo and often spends time in the field studying them. Screech, a Senfina Krizo that she raised from childhood after finding the juvenile lost and alone, accompanies her. He has been trained to wear a camera-carrying harness. Spare harnesses can be borrowed from Erin’s closet, although most attempts by other scientists to train their own Senfina Krizos have failed.
