Parvati Holcomb
Parvati Holcomb is the first companion you meet. You can find her in Reed Tobson's office in Edgewater. She will join you when you talk to Reed Tobson for the first time.
She is described in-game as a "brilliant mechanic with a heart of gold." and a "connoisseur of Halcyon's trashiest serials." When she is recruited, she is usually found in the ship's hold, or occasionally in the ship's kitchen.
Background
Parvati is the only companion with a definite age stated in-game; she is 28 years old. She was born in Edgewater on July 7th and has lived there for her entire life until the Unplanned Variable recruits her.
Parvati is asexual and this has caused people in Edgewater to think of her as cold or "different".
Personality
Parvati is very shy. She is a very kind and compassionate person, both to humans and automechanicals, like SAM and "Jeremy". She enjoys serials, particularly romance serials.
Relationships
The Unplanned Variable
Parvati's relationship with the Captain is determined by their actions.
Junlei Tennyson
Parvati has a crush on Junlei as soon as she meets her. Completing Parvati's companion quests, "Drinking Sapphire Wine" and "Don't Bite the Sun" satisfactorily results in the two becoming girlfriends.
Robert Holcomb
Robert Holcomb was Parvati's father. The two were very close and Robert taught Parvati about engineering, her lifelong passion.
Indumati
Indumati was Parvati's mother. Very little is known about her.
Vicar Max
Parvati worries she disappoints Vicar Max. She also respects him very much and considers him to be the only person in Emerald Vale who spends time thinking about what is right and wrong.
Felix Millstone
Parvati is very friendly with Felix. The two bond over their shared love of serials. They also both like riddles (although Felix often guesses the wrong answer) and games such as "Animal, Vegetable, Mineral". Felix also tries to explain Tossball to Parvati often. Parvati refers to Felix as "a nice boy" and finds him funny. Even when they first meet, Parvati says she has a "good feeling about him", despite usually not liking strangers. She believes he has a good heart.

You have to get a Dustback Casserole from Chef Raymond in Stellar Bay, a bag of Sweetheart Cakes from Cascadia and a custom made suit from Celeste Jolicoeur in Byzantium.

Trivia
- Parvati is asexual and sapphic/WLW. Throughout her quests she talks about how she is not interested in physical intimacy.
- Parvati dislikes drinking and will comment on this if the Unplanned Variable walks into the Cantina in Edgewater with her present. She particularly dislikes the taste of beer.
- If present when meeting Carmen Imagawa, Parvati requests the code name "Chicken". Her reasoning is "because chickens will adopt any critter's baby and keep them warm".
