Characters
Working With Us
Sinter
- Actual Name: Unknown
- Species: Areeni (post-baseline)
- Gender: Female
- Age: Unknown
Sinter arrived at the KerenzeTec facility and managed to infiltrate as far as its core AI room at the very beginning of the quest. She is known to be ambitious, although rash and impulsive, resorting to bad ideas very quickly when under stress. Fortunately, she has someone more capable of considering immediate events more fully in a short timespan, giving her feedback and suggestions.
...Wait, that someone is /quest/? Oh. Well, she's doomed.
SARU-601
- Actual Name: Tk-isa
- Species: Saa-kru (robotic)
- Gender: Female
- Age: Unknown
SARU-601, or Saru as she prefers to call herself, has been maintaining the facility for a while. Originally intending to escort the obvious intruder out of the facility, Saru decided to let Sinter stay due to finding her ambitions something more interesting to work towards. She was once biological, but an ambiguous accident vapourised her entire body. Her consciousness was salvaged and placed within a replacement robotic body, a fact she resents with some intensity.
Vibrant
- Actual Name: Unknown
- Species: Areeni (amphibious positive)
- Gender: Female
- Age: Unknown
Very little is known about Vibrant at this point. She apparently has a great proficiency in the crafting of "synthetics", engineered artificial organisms with an intended purpose to be served over their lifetime, and has usually been seen with at least one of her creations nearby. She also appears relatively meek and shy, and appears to be locked in a competition with an unnamed male synthetic crafter.
Working To Their Own Aims
Ei
- Actual Name: Unknown
- Species: Areeni (spacer)
- Gender: Female
- Age: Unknown
One of two areeni spacers encountered by Sinter. Possesses "augmented skin" and "subcutaneous webbing", as well as six limbs, four eyes, and ears that by all accounts make even less sense than standard areeni eyes. She's eccentric, to say the least, and highly emotional or prone to abrupt changes in mood. Has some interest in Tzet.
Tzet
- Actual Name: Unknown
- Species: Areeni (spacer)
- Gender: Male
- Age: Unknown
The other one of two areeni spacers encountered by Sinter. Possesses eyestalks, weird head gill things, tentacle arms and a variety of jutting spikes near the tip of his tail. Seems slightly more responsible than Ei, and cares deeply about her.
Working Against Us
Mysterious Level -5 Being
- Actual Name: Unknown
- Species: Unknown
- Gender: Unknown
- Age: Unknown
A being presumably in containment on on of the lower levels of the facility. It is known to have some degree of control over the facility's electronics, which it uses to send ominous messages.
'Objects'
The Perfect Cube
- Storage Location: Level -1
It's a box. It's just a box. Unless, that is, you happen to be an organic (or organic derived) intelligence, in which case it is the most perfect box ever and as you examine it you realize you need it need it NEED IT.
Fortunately the effect seems to start wearing off once the box is out of sight.
The Nightmare Sphere
- Storage Location: Unknown
The Nightmare Sphere is a grey floating sphere. It distorts all methods of sensing (including sight) that are used in its vicinity, and the records say that nobody is to touch it under any circumstances. The being in level -5 claims that the nightmare sphere possesses further abilities that only nobody else can use.
The Story So Far
(Going to need to think of how to split this up. I'll come back to this tomorrow.)
Setting
The facility (owned and once run by KerenzeTec) is based on the world of Tinvishe. Not much is known other than that, except for a hastily drawn map from Saru which lists some major population centres near by.
