Ribo stood carefully, they had walked beyond Mother's wards to ensure that the induction would work and Mother had to kill a Mal which was now decomposing at their feat. It would make for a bad first impression to come in covered in Mal guts. Mother had bought a slot from Montreal, apparently someone got some weird magical STI resistant to normal healing and didn't want anyone to know. She had a fairly normal looking backpack, filled with mana storage, some rare metals some lightweight clothes made out of the best fibers Mother could synthesize and a number of Mother's small creatures. Not the really useful ones of course she couldn't control those and uncontrolled assassin bugs would be more dangerous to her than anyone else. The coil of platinum wire wrapped carefully around her wrists was the most useful thing, she could reshape it to be tools and weapons. Wire was a fine affinity, and it would serve her well as an artificer. Mother ensured she knows the two big languages English and Mandarin along with Mother's pet language Lojban. She needs to know it to use any of Mother's personal spells.
