Basilisk doesn't strike me as any sort of cop muckey-muck. She's alone on a stakeout detail wearing a hoodie. I see no evidence of preparation, backup or clout. She just got led by the nose through the perp's headquarters and came out empty-handed. Beyond all that, she's kind of dumb (to quote Claire).

I figured there are three or four fairly good reasons potentially
1) in anonymity there is strength: Basically she uses a low grade chasis because it's inconspicuous. It isn't flashy or super noticeable. Most AIs likely have similar chasis.
2) Underestimation: Entirely possible it only looks low grade, it might actually be fairly upgraded and advanced, just looks fairly low grade and nonthreatening.
3) Sentiment: Might have been her original body, doesn't want to abandon it

I have no idea what this means.

In addition to good reasons already listed, the chassis might be a helpful illustrative tool for Jeph. First, it's seems like it would be pretty quick and standard to draw. Second, Corpse Witch becomes kind of intimidating in that every line she delivers is given with the same facial and body expression which is facilitated by the lack of complexity in her chassis. Gives her a kind of icy and level-headed air.

Can someone please explain the origin of the name "Corpse Witch?" It seems to be a nickname invented on the forum, but even Jeph is using it.
