Magic Versus Tech Zwei - Character Creation

In a world of Magic and insanely future tech, there are forests of fairies and major futuristic cities with flying cars. Magic and Technology have never been able to get along, but now it has been escalating lately.

Wars have broken out, and we see sorcerers going out and fighting mechas, and cyborgs fighting with ninja.

There are two main leaders, Jace on the Magic side leads most of the actual armies (Though there are groups that work outside of Jace's control), and Jeff leading the largest Mecha Army.

The war has shown no signs of slowing down...

The name of the Magic Side of the war is The Natrali, and the Technological side's known as the Unity of the Future, Technalia.

Personality:

Bio:

Name: Norine

Age: 18

Gender: female

Race: human

Appearance: dark hair; violet eyes. Isn't very tall.

Weapons/Items held: Pilots a Divider Mk-II.

Magic: none.

Bio: Orphaned when her hometown was attacked and her parents were killed in the crossfire; she began to live on the street. After several years of barely surviving; she learned that the army was recruiting the homeless. She signed up as quickly as possible; and turned out to have a talent for piloting mecha. She later discovered that she had an even greater talent for wrecking them.

Name: Lee

Age: 26

Gender: Male

Race: Edgemaster (humans that look down on the rest of humans)

Appearance: Though he's 26, the Edgemasters age more slowly and so he only appears to be a 14 year old boy. He has short and spiky purple hair, and green eyes that are very piercing. He wears a baggy pair of pants and no shirt, revealing his abs.

Weapons/Items held: A magic sword that is incapable of breaking by anything short of a nuclear level spell (note that nobody should be ABLE to cast such a spell), katana shaped.

Magic: He uses body and blade enhancing magic, just like all Edgemasters. The exact degree of what he can do shall be revealed in the story.

Bio: Growing up in the tribe of Edgemasters, he was always a bit rebellious. Unlike the rest of his clan, he has decided to help the side of Magic in this fight, as he dislikes all forms of technology and believes it will ruin the world some day.

Specifically, he believes that the Edgemasters will be forced into a corner if all the rest of the magic in the world deteriorates due to Tech trying to destroy it, but has no clear hatred for beings brought to life through science. This is proven when he shows mercy and teaches Cirno, yet destroys any piece of tech that shows any sign of violence towards magic.

-----

Name: Cirno

Age: 12 (as an Android, she has had the mindset of a 16 year old her entire existence)

Gender: Female

Race: Android/Edgemaster (EVERYBODY RUN! Oh wait, most of you don't know what they're capable of...heheheheh)

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Her sword from the picture, which has magic properties that allow it to freeze anything it cuts, which makes for easier cutting, as she is capable of cutting through ice easily with her strength and skill. She also has the ability to see a tactical topographical map of the area she is in within 3 miles, as well as analyze any form of technology she sees and see it's vital points and what it's functions are. She also has liquid nitrogen sprayers in her legs to freeze things she kicks.

Magic: She is capable of Edgemaster Style body enhancement and sword magic.

Bio: She was created to kill the Edgemasters, but Lee found it and defeated it easily, because the creator made one flaw: The way of the sword is a learned art, not something to be programmed. After being defeated, Cirno lost her memory and became incredibly submissive.

Lee decided to train her as a swordswoman, and from that point forward she was an edgemaster, regardless of what else she was. Many people criticized his decision, but their society allows for anyone who wishes to learn the true path of the sword, and she proved herself several times over.

She became incredibly skilled, and is now able to match even Lee. She has decided to help him fight technology, and therefore, despite being an android, she is on the side of magic.

------

Name: Jeff

Age: 35

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance: Massive with massive muscles. He has short black hair and a kind expression.

Weapons/Items held: He carries an assortment of highly advanced heavy weapons and explosives with him at all times.

Magic: HELL NO!

Bio: He grew up learning everything there was to learn about tanks. Not mechas, but tanks. He loves his tanks. He also made it his goal to some day lift a tank. He eventually reached that goal, and due to him being specialized in weapons as he is and his inborn resistance to magic, he became a top general in no time. His tactics have gotten soldiers through many battles.

------

Name: Niho

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Race: Homunculus

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: The pet robot which she has complete control of and is powerful enough to rip apart massive mechas. Of course, robot is a loose term. It is actually a magically formed Chimera enhanced with cybernetic armor and organs, until it finally became what is known as a Cyborg Chimera. Niho is psychically connected, and refers to it as 'Mr. B'.

Mr. B: As I am having trouble keeping up with everything I'm giving this thing, I have decided to list everything here. Note that if I forget something I reserve the right to add things.
Parts:
1) Chimera: His Chimera parts are magically formed together using a Gryphon, a Snake, A lion, a Dog, and a Bear. The Chimera part is impervious to minor spells, and generally resistant to bigger spells.
2) Cyborg: His metallic skin is made of a very well made steel alloy that is often even used in Mass Produced Mechs. This metal is completely impervious to standard RPG rockets and armor piercing bullets, however such weapons are outdated in today's world except for those strapped for cash, so Mr. B is NOT suited for full scale war.
Modes:
1) Neutral/Fight mode: Under normal circumstances, he looks exactly like he does in the image. He has no projectile weaopns, just his claws which are tipped in diamond and able to rip through steel, and his teeth which are the same. His tongue and teeth are all coated in poison, and are very deadly to humans. Non-humans are simply paralyzed, or immune in some cases. The fact he has extra arms does give him an advantage in direct grappling, and will often fight very directly close to any foe because of them.
2) Flight mode: Being part Gryphon and Part Cyborg, he has one wing that is from the Gryphon, and due to having only kept one wing, the scientist added a solar powered Cybernetic wing that will fly well but only in direct sunlight. (For reference, Mechas use boosters usually due to that allowing them to fly at night, but the solar powered wing is much quieter)

Mr. B lacks the ability to swim due to the metal on his body being too heavy, and he cannot breathe underwater due to lacking gills.

Magic: She can recover from any amount of physical damage, and most magic damage. The psychic link to Mr. B creates a way to communicate, and causes both to share the exact same emotions as long as they are within range of each other.

Bio: She was created to be a perfect little girl, but the proffessor who created her accidentally added an extra ingredient. Due to this ingredient, she became something entirely different, and as she grew up the proffessor despised her. The mage who had worked with him argued that even though things looked bad, they should not dispose of her.

Things got out of control, and the girl became afraid. She though they would kill her, and in fact it was practically guaranteed. But the proffessor had a pet robot that she had become very friendly with. Suddenly the robot connected to her on a strange psychic level, and her fear became it's fear, and it killed both the proffessor and the mage.

She had been 14 when this had happened. She has been on the run for four years.

Her creation was to symbolize a connection of magic and technology, and instead became a mistake that the history books would never record...

Name: Johnnie Blaze

Age: 32

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance: He wears a robe and is often seen smoking a pipe. He has green eyes and short brown hair. His face betrays the tiniest signs of aging, and has smile lines.

Weapons/Items held: He holds a small red stick, a magic wand one could say. He uses it to focus his magic.

Magic: A great deal of elemental and defensive spells.

Bio: He never speaks of it.
--
Name: Jack Black

Age: 33

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance: Looks older than he is, has a grizzled beard with deep brown eyes and his hair is black. Almost always seen with a cigar in his mouth, and wears a military combat uniform.

Weapons/Items held: Everything is kept in his dimension marble. Guns, explosives, tracking equipment, and even his Mecha.

Mecha Appearance:
Mecha Weapons:

Magic(if any): None

Bio: Never speaks of it.

Combined Bio: These two are bounty hunters who have worked together to accumulate massive amounts of wealth. Ever since the Magic Side has been offering special powers as rewards for bounties on their side, they've accumulated such things as well.

Everything they have (including over half of Johnnie's magic, and Jack's dimension marble and Mecha) have all been obtained due to their bounty hunter job. They have become very proficient in capturing very high ranked bounties, and lately they've been turning their hunts into competitions to see who does the most work towards capturing their prey.

One last note is that, as you have likely already guessed, they don't choose sides.

Misc.: Feel free to make your own bounty hunters, and if the occassion arrises, feel free to kill these two. As you can tell, they are somewhat generic.

Also, it is likely that I'm going to have them die by ANTI.


----------

Name: Jace Beleren

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance: Short black hair, Deep gray eyes, and a robe with blue and black in various patterns. This outfit may not look very useful but it is rather traditional right?

Weapons/Items held: Oh his robe isn't that useless. It grants him a bonus in overall magic capacity.
His Staff allows him to focus mana in an area so that he can use double his actual mana capacity for any single spell.

Magic: Maximus Notitia (Only some of the most minor spells however), Alchemia, and his inborn limitless mana. Despite being 'limitless' there is only so much a human can put out, therefore the reason why his Robe and Staff increase this output maximum. Also his output is remarkably low even for a human, where his staff and robe together put him at just under double an average human's ability. Which is far less than any elf/dwarf/other magical beings.

Bio: Having been born in a perfectly normal family, it was amazing that he had magic capacity at all, as normally it is passed down through the family over time building up.

He was therefore, as soon as being found out, sent to a magical school at the age of four. The reason for such a rushed response was due to it being found out that he is a limitless store of mana, but with a problem: He lacks the capacity to poor out this mana.

Due to his limitless supply, it was decided he'd be taught in the ways of Time and Space manipulation, and given training in charisma so as to lead armies. However it was never intended he'd see battle, so he lacks any real combat experience.

He found that he was rather fond of an elven teacher, who taught him the ways of alchemy. She however had to be transferred to another school, but what she taught him stuck and he continued his training in alchemy. However he has yet to see this teacher again.

He also met Diana while in school, and above most people she was his only real friend. Most people knew he was supposed to be a leader, and so they either kissed up to him or made fun of him for being born a nobody. Diana was genuinely a kind friend by comparison.

Now he has finally reached an age high enough to lead the mystical military, and just in time: The war is taking a nasty turn with these new so called "Super Robots". Though Jace doubts that his abilities as a leader who's never even going to enter combat can mean anything.

Codename: Poison Oak

Cover name: Laura Lovegood

Age: 15

Gender: female

Race: human

Appearance: Blond hair, blue eyes; flat chest.

Weapons/Items held: a bag of seeds. This is more dangerous than it sounds.

Magic(if any): Can manipulate plants.

Bio: A very skilled spy for the magical side; and the cornerstone of their intricate spy network. Currently works as a Gardener for a high ranking general.

Name: Garret Armatech

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance:
With Powersuit

Spoiler:

Withouth the suit

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Unbreakable steel Powerdrill which is light despite it's size. Energy recharger to Recharge element hand. Rivetgun. His whole body works as weapon with help of powersuit. Plasmids which alter genetic code giving ability to hurl fireballs, freeze and more.

Magic: None

Bio: Garret took part of protector program which was to put him inside a powersuit which grants him speed, size and strengh. He's stuck inside suit since it can't be removed anyother way than Powersuit station. the Suit is like his second skin which works as armor. He was given his Powersuite station which he could use anytime to take suite off but he rarely does so now

Name: Aumilia Vernonduschlitz

Age: 10

Gender: Female

Race: Human

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Aumilia possess an heirloom magical staff known as "Göttlicher Arm der Vernichtung". Passed down through her family, it is an incredibly potent source and channel for magical power, particularly when used in conjunction with the Glänzende Kraft school of magic. It is a simple metal staff with a clawlike tip, clutching a round, white orb. In addition to this staff, Aumilia wears a suit of armor developed by her father, known as "Unzerbrechlich". Unzerbrechlich is utilitarian and angular, interlocking plates allowing for versatile movement. No suiting up is required, the back opens and then clamps down and locks the occupant in when entered. From there, it can be triggered to release when necessary. Unzerbrechlich's primary function, aside from providing minimal physical protection, is to provide a shield without use of an active shield spell. It channels the wearer's inherent magic in order to create a shield around them. However, this shield weakens when magical attacks are used, and even at its strongest enough stress can break it.

Magic: Instructed in the Glänzende Kraft school of magic since she was very young, Aumilia is a highly skilled offensive mage. Glänzende Kraft's focus on attack spells has allowed her to master a variety of potent attacks, including the anti-armor Unbegrenztheits-Schlag, and the anti-infantry spell Feind-Hammer. However, this has left her with weak defensive magic. She requires Unzerbrechlich to compensate for her lack of defense. Her basic offensive spell is "Trennmaschine-Schraubbolzen".

Bio: The first member of the Vernonduschlitz family born outside of Gebirgsland, Aumilia was born shortly after the familiy immigrated. As all members of the Vernonduschlitz family are, she has been trained in the Glänzende Kraft school of magic since a very young age. This has effected her behavior; when in serious situations, the girl is surprisingly disciplined and focused for her young age. However, outside of these situations she is quite cheerful and optimistic. That said, she often seems... very eager to "remove the enemy from battle", for little more reason then because they're the enemy, and they're trying to hurt her. Oddly, she's scared of the dark, a fact she's rather embarrassed about.

Name: John Bernstern

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance: A male around five feet and nine inches tall. Making him appear around the standard height for teenagers. But in young adult ages, probably shorter than some. His hair is almost a bowl cut-like hair style that is long up to the back of his neck. His eyes don't look ferocious. Rather, it's just calm. He looks rather young for his age and many could say his face is like those baby face types.

On the other hand, he tends to wear a black hoodie and black jeans. Making him totally black. It's more of a tactical thing because in the dark, it makes his movements look more faster and longer in range. On top of that, he also wears a pair of black sneakers and black hand wraps to complete his dark attire.

Martial arts training strengthened his lower body area for more speed and increase in attacking power. Thus, his legs are slightly developed for speed and to generate power to make up for his lack of muscle in the upper body area.

Weapons/Items held: FN SCAR-H with grenade attachment, Desert Eagle Magnum, Piercing ammunition, Flash Bang Grenade, Fragmentation Grenade, Smoke Grenade, Claymores, and dual knifes with vibro-edges for better cutting force.

Magic(if any): Reinforcing magic to increase his physical capabilities. Also enchanting magic to give an element for the ammunition he's shooting out.

Bio: John isn't really much your average mercenary off the street. He received enough combat training to hold his own in many situations while mixing both technology and magic for an increase in combat efficiency and capability. Though the types of magic he uses aren't really much, he effectively use what he has to survive for the next day. (Sorry for crap bio... Kinda was on derp mode)

Name: Judith Aviya Cohen

Age: 9

Gender: female

Race: human

Appearance: black hair, blue eyes. Often wears glasses.

Weapons/Items held: Super Robot Ninja Dracula (she named it herself)

Magic(if any): none

Personality: Is a very quiet, shy child. In a fight; she always tries to kill as few opponents as possible; and often appologizes to her enemies when she's forced to severely hurt them. Is still trying to track down her parents.

Bio: Kidnapped by goblins when she was five; subjected to magical mind-control; and trained to be a child soldier for the magical side. After a few years of training; she was sent to attack a caravan that was transporting a super robot mold from a factory that had to be abandoned due to the recent loss of a nearby fortress. During the attack; she was captured alive. The soldier that captured her managed to break the mind-control spell that had been cast on her; and pretty much became her temporary legal guardian. While they were on their way back to a safe location; the goblins attacked again. During the attack, she hid inside the vehicle that the mold was being transported in; and accidentally touched it. Because of this the mold mentally "bonded" with her; and suddenly became a Super Robot; which she named Ninja Dracula. She then got inside the giant robot; and proceeded to drive off the goblins. Since Super Robot Molds are expensive; and can never be reset after they bond with a pilot; she became the permanent pilot of Ninja Dracula; and is still undergoing pilot training.


Name: Boudicca Genovefa

Age: 100 (In elf years; she's about 16)

Gender: female

Race: elf

Appearance: Has green hair, and long, pointy ears. Doesn't look much older than 16.

Weapons/Items held: A bow that magically enhances any arrow fired from it so that it will be able to pierce anything. The magic in said arrow does not wear off until it hits the ground.

Magic(if any): Has a magical ability known as "Blessing of the Forest". Whenever she's in a forest; she gains super-elven strength and speed. Once took down a super robot by grabbing one of it's legs, and throwing it upwards.

Personality: An overly energetic, somewhat bratty teenager (well, teenager by elven standards anyway). Somewhat bratty; often complains, and generally drives her fellow forest warriors nuts. However; she's a very skilled warrior; and is simply the best when it comes to navigating through a forest.

Bio: When she was young; her parents left her in the forest to die. Not realizing that she'd been left behind deliberately; she wandered throughthe woods aimlessly for hours; seeking anyone that would help her. After she'd walked for about a mile; she broke down in tears. A dryad who happened to be passing by heard her crying, and asked what was wrong. When she heard the child's situation; she gave her directions to an orange clearing. After following said directions (and facing several, fairy-tale-esque challenges); she reached the clearing. There, she met a powerful forest spirit who gave her "The Blessing of The Forest"; and took her home. When she arrived home; however, she found that her parents didn't want to take her back; so she off into the forest; and lived there for several years before she returned so that she could join the elven militia and help stop an army that happened to be marching through her forest.

Age: 30

Gender: Male

Race: Cyborg

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: The prayer beads around his neck have been equipped with plasma conduits that connect through his mechanical body into the ropes around his fists and his sandals, allowing him to shoot plasma, or surround his hands and feet with it.

Magic: None, though he possess an ability similar to it: he can manipulate the pure energy of his spirit, chi, to an extent, which is amplified by the plasma weaponry he already possesses.

Personality: Though he loves to fight, he is also lazy, more so now that he doesn't have to train to keep up his physique. He bears no grudge against anyone (except maybe DAS because of his accident), but

Bio: Akuma was once simply an ordinary, if quite powerful, fighter. He was training in a Technalia territory when a firing test for one of the DAS systems happened to go awry. After this accident, which took off one of his legs and one of his arms, he was offered a deal by Technalian scientists - gain unimaginable strength, at the cost of his humanity. He accepted, and Akuma became AKUMA. He now hunts down all those who wield magic, more because he owes his life to science than any hatred for them. He usually slacks off anyway.
----

Name: Eterna L. Hunter

Age: 7

Gender: Female

Race: Android

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Eterna possesses four energy sabers installed in her four wrists, and she is also something of a weapon herself, being a combat android - incredibly strong, capable of throwing large robots around with ease, very quick and agile, and never tires.

Magic(if any): None

Personality: Eterna is usually very angry, having been programmed with hatred for magic. She is only impressed by brute strength, and does not retreat regardless of damage. She is subservient to Technalia, however, and would never attempt to kill anyone who follows the ways of technology.

Bio: Created to serve as both an unstoppable warrior and a 'motivation aid' for AKUMA (whose training now usually consists of running away from her because he doesn't want to fight something with four arms), Eterna has done her duties without fail for her whole life.

----

Name: Mobile Fortress DAS (Defend All Soldiers)

Age: 3

Gender: Female

Race: Machine

Appearance: A large cubic fortress with many ramparts for sniper usage, and even more weapons, energy and bullet based alike. Massive jets exist on the bottom and the sides of the fortress. A tall spire juts out from the top, which is actually the large Annihilation cannon. In addition, the AI commanding it is housed within a pink haired, childlike female android in a too-large shirt named Dassy.

Weapons/Items held: The numerous weapons on the fortress.The Annihilation cannon in particular can be charged up, and at full charge (15 minutes) is stronger than a nuke. Has powerful shields, and jets that allow it to move faster than anything of that size has any right to. Is also capable of taking command of Sentinels and other robots if needed.

Magic(if any): None

Personality: DAS as a whole is very subservient, following orders quickly and thoroughly. Dassy, on the other hand, is childish, curious, and slightly immature. She likes to prank people by closing doors on them and 'accidentally' activating turrets to scare them, and occasionally uses her computers to play video games instead of do any sort of meaningful work. AKUMA is a frequent opponent in these games, as well as Eterna for some reason. Dassy is also a fan of Hide-And-Seek

Bio: A cumulative effort between the scientists of the tech side, the mobile fortress was built around the basis of a submissive female AI, in order to prevent it from going psycho. The scientists remain unsure of who to thank blame for giving the AI the appearance of an underage girl.

Name: Satsuki Aizawa

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Race: Vampire

Appearance:

Magic: Her specialty is draining magic. She can drain mana, life force, or even energy then take that power and direct it back at the opponent.

Bio: Satsuki is a special breed of vampire known as a True Ancestor, meaning she was born a vampire instead of turned into one. She joined Jace's forces on a pure whim, thinking this little war between magic and technology would be truely entertaining.

http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/472380/1girl-bad_id-christina_mackenzie-green_eyes-gundam

Weapons/Items held: Aside from an emergency handgun, Remma carries few weapons on her due to her role as a pilot. Her helmet produces a basic heads-up display but is otherwise not unique. She pilots a VT-108 "Zebra" mecha(details to be posted in the Mecha Thread), nicknamed "Phoebe".

Magic: Nnnnnooooope.

Personality: Remma is cheerful and extremely, extremely confident. She knows she's a skilled pilot, and she won't hesitate to point that fact out at all. Repeatedly. She's friendly enough, though, and can at least back her bragging up. She can get rather caustic when certain subjects are brought up, especially her parents.

Bio: Remma's early life was... troubled. Her parents bickered, argued, and often blamed her for their problems. Eventually, at age eight, she was dumped at her aunt's apartment, and while her aunt was kind to her, she never forgave her parents for their behavior. Eventually, she enlisted as a pilot at the surprisingly young age of thirteen, and grew extremely skilled at piloting Zebra mechs, eventually earning a personal one.

Magic: The Librarian's expansive knowledge of magic encompasses every single spell in existence, and many that have been forgotten for hundreds of years. She is extremely dangerous.

Personality: The Librarian simply wants to live a peaceful life. She treats visitors, any of them, cheerfully and amiably, and is perfectly fine with any books they may want to read, for the most part. Provided said books don't leave the Library. The problems arise when someone tries to hurt her, or her books. The Librarian will attack without mercy if this happens.

Bio: Very little is known about the Librarian. What is known is that she lives in a vast Library with a huge collection of books. That's about it.

Bio: When her parents found out she could use magic, they sent her away to a magic school. While she was there, she met Jace. Ever since she learned how to use love magic, she's been using it. She enjoys making people fall in love with each other. Sometimes she does it for fun, but most of the time, it's just to give people the little push they need to get the courage to ask someone on a date.

----

Name: General Ivan Saveli Kaminski

Age: 33

Gender: male

Race: human

Appearance: (will find pic later)

Weapons/Items held: His robotic leg; which transforms into the following forms: A chainsaw, a machine gun, a harpoon gun, a drill, a rocket, a rocket launcher, a flamethrower, and a pogo-stick.

Abilities: Is a very skilled strategist; and has won several, incredibly unlikely victories for the technological side. Is also skilled at martial arts; having studied both Shaolin and Arnis de Mano for years.

Personality: A paranoid nutcase who believes that the magic side is constantly plotting against him; and the world will be a much safer place with them exterminated. Also considers the people serving under him less valuable than the weapons he arms them with. After all, Divider costs a large sum of taxpayer money to replace; while humans are easy enough to come by. Or at least, that's how he sees it.

Bio: When he was just a kid of about twelve; his hometown was attacked by the magical side. At first, it didn't seem like the town was going to be overrun. A mecha platoon had been sent from a nearby military base; and they enemy seemed to be sustaining heavier casualties than the army. However, to his horror, all of the dead enemies got up; and continued their attack. Then the dead soldiers on the tech side got up; and turned on their comrades. Then the freshly dead in town cemetary clawed their way out of the ground; and everything went to Hell. Soon, the town was filled with walking corpses. Ivan's family managed to stay alive by hiding in their basement for two days. On the third day; they snuck out of the house, and made a daring escape through the town's sewer system. His father; stayed behind to fight off a horde of zombies that had started to follow them; and was torn apart by zombies.

They headed west; through the desert; hoping the heat would dry out any zombies chasing them. Unfortunately; they didn't know how to survive in the desert; and thus the journey was extremely hard on them. Ivan's mother was the first to die; from heat stroke. A day afterwards; a creature known as a Nasnas attacked them, and Ivan's younger sister and brother; leaving him only his younger, twin sisters. It took him about a year to cross the desert; during which time one of his two remaining sister's died from starvation. Eventually, he made it to the first town he'd seen in a whole year; and collapsed at the gates while holding his unconcious sister. When he came to in a hospital; he was told that he was lucky to be alive; and that his sister was in horrible condition. As soon as he was well enough to walk; he left the hospital without staying behind to say goodbye to his sister.

He headed straight to the nearest army recruiting center; and was accepted almost immediately after he mentioned that he was a survivor of the Peaceful City massacre. Later on; his leg was hit with a curse that caused it to slowly rot, and had to be amputated. During the amputation; however, the camp was attacked by a group of elves. Ivan earned his nickname of "Ivan the Great" when he beat an elf to death with his own severed leg. It would be several more years before he earned the nickname "Ivan The Butcher". He would later go on to rise through the ranks of the Technological Military; go through several robotic legs; study two different martial arts; and lose his eye. But I think we should end his bio here.

Name: Nel Klein

Age: 12

Gender: Female

Race: Gespenst (will elaborate in the bio)

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: A variety of explosives and throwing knives. Her right arm may count since it is entirely robotic in nature, it only looks like a normal arm. However, it packs a powerful punch and can send out some electrical charges.

Magic(if any): As a Gespenst, she has natural inborn magical abilities. These include the ability to phase through solid objects and to use a sort of camouflage magic that helps her keep hidden.

Personality: A tad stubborn and adventurous, Nel is a bit of a risk taker. Always energetic with a slightly rude way of speaking, she only gets serious when on a mission. Despite her attitude and appearance, she's a highly competent saboteur.

Bio: The Gespenst are an ancient race of fair folk who earned their name from their ghost-like abilities, white colored hair and pale skin. They are very human in appearance and the only other distinguishing trait is their tendency to become slightly transparent when lost in thought. Which is why many get spooked by them on dark, starry nights, often thinking them to be some apparitions or ghosts.

Nel in one of these children, though when she was several years young, she had got into an accident that cost her, her arm. A young scientist/doctor had found the child, alone and bleeding to death so he took her in and replaced her arm with a robotic one. This a mistake on his part, technology was forbidden with her race. Any users of it would be considered heretics and banished from their communities. Now that Nel had this robotic arm, she could never return to her people. So the scientist, out of guilt, took her in and raised her as his own daughter. During this time, the scientist taught her everything he knew, discovering a fondness for chemical mixtures and explosions in the girl. In fact, making explosives almost came naturally to the girl, and despite the dangers with it, the man encouraged her enthusiasm with them.

However, a year ago, her "father" was killed during an ogre attack on their village. Saddened and enraged by the loss of the man she considered family, she sought out the leader of the Tech army. She wanted to join them, knowing full well she'd be fighting against her own kind. So she disguised herself as a boy and set out to go find him. He possibly saw the use her abilities would pose and allowed her join. Immediately giving her training on how to be saboteur.

Name: Inman Fernus

Age: Looks twenty; believed to be in his 60s at the youngest.

Gender: male

Race: Human

Appearance: Blond hair, blue eyes. No longer has eyebrows or any form of facial hair.

Weapons/Items held: Once held an amulet made with a mix of Alchemia, necromancy, and animation magic that turned every corpse, statue; and heavily damaged mecha around him into his servant. Said amulet was destroyed a while ago. Rumor has it he's working to build another one.

Magic(if any): Necromancy, Alchemia, and Animation. Also has partial immortality due to unknown means. If he is killed; his body will dissolve into nothing. About a week later, he'll return; with no explanation. However, whatever means he uses, it's obviously flawed. The first time he "returned", he found that he no longer had facial hair or the ability to regrow it. The second time, a small patch of skin on his back was altered into something resembling scales.

Personality: Seems to be very affable. Seems to be constantly cheerful; and is almost always polite to everyone he meets. However, he doesn't really give a damn about anyone around him; as long as he has free reign to perform morally questionable magical experiments.

Bio: Most of his backstory is unknown. His recent fame began a few decades ago; when an item he created was responsible for the event known as the Peaceful City massacre. During said event; he convinced a platoon consisting of dwarves and a few giants to attack a city that happened to be near a Technology military base. He told them he had a secret weapon that would ENSURE that they successfully captured the city and razed it to the ground. In the ensueing battle; the entire group was quickly wiped out by the better equipped, better armed Technology side forces. However; their corpses soon got back up and joined the fight; as did the corpses of their enemies. Soon the city was filled with nothing but zombies. His stated purpose for this was to test the range and power of a magical artifact he'd made. However, he and the artifact were destroyed a week later when the technology side firebombed the city. He of course, got better; and demanded a new workspace and more resources. According to rumors; he's either creating a new amulet...or planning something worse.

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Military Corporation's Armour Series 2: Blitz Gear v2.0 - A lightweight under-suit which, whilst fitting under daily wear, absorbs and stores energy and converts it to electricity when needed, based on advances made by Military Corp's Armour Series 1; this model is much smaller, lighter and maneuverable than previous releases, whilst sacrificing some protection, made possible by a patented rubber compound and a microscopic web of conductors within every part of the suit. When inactive, the suit will be unnoticeable, but when on, it will grow over the subjects hands and glow depending on the amount of energy used. The suit has been protected from analysis and alteration by Military Corp. By releasing stored energy, the wearer can do a variety of things, the power released being directly proportional to the power used

• Charge: Allows the wearer to absorb energy into the suit by touching a power source.
  
• Passive Charge: Automatically absorbs a small amount of energy from an attack/random sources. This will also weaken attacks.
  
• Discharge: Allows the the subject to fire electricity from any part of their suited body.
  
• Stun Touch: A small amount of electricity released can paralyse a target for a short amount of time. If this occurs unnoticed the effect can last for a long time.
  
• Passive Enhancement: Small amounts of energy used create a small increase in strength, and a slightly larger one in speed and reactions.
  
• Auto Defibrillator: If the subject's heart stops then the suit will automatically apply an appropriate shock to rectify this.
  
• Other Undiscovered Usages: The suit has a high amount of potential and requires some experimentation.
  
• WARNING! DO NOT ACTIVATE OVERCHARGE!MILITARY CORP IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INJURIES TO THE SUBJECT FOR USING THIS FEATURE, OR ANY FEATURE THAT IS FAULTY TWO WEEKS AFTER PURCHASE! THE OVERCHARGE FEATURE IS NOT FIT FOR HUMANS AND CURRENTLY UNSUITABLE FOR USAGE.

Rasierapparat: A sword linked with the Blitz Gear; extremely conductive.

Magic(if any): None

Personality: Somewhat impulsive and impatient, but generally a nice guy to be around. When he meets a problem he can't beat by fighting he'll usually run away (literally), but he enjoys proving himself in fights when he can. He can be flighty and unreliable, but also has a knack for appearing when things seem really bad. He has a love for freedom and a hatred of lies, and little regard for many rules. He uses electric metaphors a lot.

Bio: Zack, born to a working class family, was a normal school boy until his body was discovered to be unusually resistant to electricity. After that he was basically sold to the military by his parents and given a free piece of technology, his suit, which made him a soldier for the tech faction. Never really caring for the war, Zack mostly did what he wanted and got away with it, half due to his importance as a test subject and the other half being that he never engaged in any real harmful activity.

Age: 18

Gender: female

Race: human

Appearance: Is rather tall. Has blond hair, blue eyes, and large tracts of land.

Weapons/Items held: A sword with a blade that changes shape whenever metal-altering magic is put into it. It's default form is a short sword.

Magic: Skilled at metal magic, fire magic, and alchemia. Has the ability to turn her mana into metal; though it turns back into mana after a few hours. Can also enhance existing metal by putting her mana into it; and has created quite a few magical weapons. Can also summon fire magic powerful enough to melt steel.

Personality: Very hotblooded. Has several beserk buttons that will no doubt get you a severe beating from her. However, underneathe the layers of berserker rage; she's actually a nice person. Her dreams are to be the world's best alchemist; and to find her younger sister.

Bio: After their parents were killed in an accident; she got a job as an apprentice blacksmith; while (unbeknowest to her) her sister befriended a con-artist; and started to learn how to cheat people out of their money. She didn't find out where her sister was getting money from until about a year of working for the blacksmith. While she was verbally berating her sister for cheating people out of their money; their town was attacked by the technology side. One of the tech-side mecha nearly killed her sister; she got enraged, and used her metal magic to tear off some of it's armour. She then started blasting it with fire; then passed out from exhaustion. When she woke up in the hospital several hours later; she was greeted by the face of Inman; a rather famous alchemist and necromancer. He offered to teach her Alchemia, in exchange for her services as an assistant. She accepted the offer almost instantly. However, when she asked what had happened to her sister, Inman informed her that the girl had disappeared. Since then, she has been working for Inman; and hasn't stopped looking for her sister.

Name: Sara Antoniou

Age: 20

Gender: female

Race: Was at one point human; now a sentient AI.

Appearance: (will find pic)

Weapons/Items held: The "pilot" off a backpack unit.

Magic: None.

Personality: Most people would not be very happy to have their entire personality converted into data. Sara is not most people. In fact, she's absolutely thrilled to be a sentient AI. She considers it her second chance at life. Because she never really enjoyed life while she had her body; she's decided to enjoy it now as much as possible.

Bio: Was a quiet otaku that spent most of her time either playing videogames, or looking up random information on the web. Didn't really have many friends; or a very good relationship with her parents. Decided to join the army at 15; and turned out to have a talent for piloting mecha. Soon became an ace pilot, and survived several battles; before moving to a safer position as a test pilot for new mecha. Unfortunately for her; she ended up testing a mecha with a nuclear power-source, unaware that it had a radiation leak. As she lay dying on the hospital bed; she was offered a chance at an experimental proceedure that would turn her into an AI. As it was pretty much her only chance to survive, she took it. Is currently re-learning how to pilot mecha as an AI. Will soon be tested on the battlefield as the copilot of a certain mecha pilot who happens to have a tendency to wreck mecha.

Race: Human

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Weapons/Items held: Military Corporation's Armour Series II: Feuersbrunst Gear II - A regular sized armour with the protection of a heavyweight armour, but weight of a middleweight, whilst having the size of a lightweight thanks to a patented combination of dragon materials and materials with various magical properties.

Flammenzunge: A sword linked with the Feuresbrunst Gear; extremely conductive.

Magic(if any): Quickly usable, but weak, fire based magic, amplified by the Feuresbrunst Gear. It is almost entirely offensive and is designed to complement sword fighting.

Personality: James is pretty much the ace of the Magic country. He has a knack for pulling off improbable things, because of a mixture of daring and lack of regard for his own life, and incredible determination, whilst being a nice, friendly guy and a talented leader during fights, with knowledge of a lot of magic. However, he feels the stress a lot, having had a lot of expectations placed upon him due to his feats at such a young age, and occasionally that shines through. Despite this, he copes well, leading when asked and following when asked, even though he doesn't like killing and dreams of separating the two factions permanently. He uses fire metaphors a lot.

Bio: James was discovered to have the ability to use magic and attended magic school with Jace at the age of four. However, whereas Jace was discovered to have great talent with magic, James was discovered to have little to no talent with anything that didn't involve fire, which he was also not that great with. That resulted in the two only knowing each other by name, and James being treated as an outcast.

Not discouraged by being placed bottom of his school in magic reserves and output, James trained obsessively with a sword and studied incredibly hard to avoid being kicked out of the school. The work ethic and his physique earned by obsessive training eventually pulled him out of his unpopular status (at about the time the girls hit puberty), and he was generally admired by the whole school. This didn't really seem to affect him, as even though he enjoyed having a lot of friends, he had to keep up his hard work or it would all fall apart.

His reputation grew and he was selected to be given Military Corporation's latest fire-based armour at his graduation, due to his swordsmanship, not his class ranking, which was around the bottom-middle due to his high theory scores countering his low practical scores. His low marks caused him to be entered into the military at a low rank.

Currently there are:

12 Members of the Tech side.
13 Members of the Magic Side.
5 characters with Both Magic and Tech that have not chosen a side.
Current Total characters: 30.

The 13 includes the Librarian because she is a force of Magic, despite not helping the military aspect whatsoever, and also includes Cirno, despite being an Android.

Name: Gentle Giant Mark 1

Age: Somewhere around 10000 years old.

Gender: none.

Race: Magitech Mecha

Appearance: Very silly looking; as if it came out of an old scifi movie. Hit has a cubical head, attached to a rectangular body. It has no legs, relying on hovering apparatus attached to it's bottom for movement. Is somewhere around 50 feet tall.

Weapons/Items held: none.

Magic(if any): The only robot in history with it's own mana-supply; allowing it to cast spells. All of the spells it knows involve either manipulating the Earth, or manipulating technology.

Personality: It's creator gave it the ability to think logically; but only gave it one mission directive: Serve the will of the people of Reichlich. It's singleminded dedication to that directive was the cause of a horrible tragedy.

Bio: It was created by a renowned and powerful Science Mage who, unfortunately, died from a severe heart attack before he could finish programming it; leaving it only with one directive: serve the will of the Reichlich people. Shortly after it's creator's death, however, the Reichlich people engaged in a civil war for reasons it did not understand. With the people it was supposed to serve divided into two factions with very different desires, it became confused about what to do. However, after a year of watching the two factions kill eachother, it came to the conclusion that the two sides had one wish in common: to destroy the other side.

It then decided on a course of action that it believed would satisfy the wishs of both sides: it deactivated the devices that were causing that allowed the city of Reichlich to fly through the air; causing the city to plummet to the Earth. With the city and most of it's populants destroyed, it then turned it's attention to the nation of Reichlich that the floating city had been capitol of. Using it's earth-shifting magic, it created an earthquake so powerful that it killed thousands, and reshaped the landscape almost completely.

Deciding that both sides had been thoroughly destroyed; The Gentle Giant then shut itself down. Afterall, the nation whose people it was programmed to serve didn't exist anymore.

The few survivors of the cataclysm quickly began to argue over who was at fault for the creation of the monster. One group argued that modern technology was to blame for the tragedy, and renounced technology. Another claimed that clearly it was the fault of magic; and renounced magic. Both groups went their seperate ways; deciding that attacking eachother at this point would lower their already miniscule chance of survival. Many centuries later, the decendents of both sides went to war; but that's a story you already know.

Name: L.A.P.I.N. (Ladylike Anti-Personnel Interception Newtype), 'Lapin' or 'Lapi'.

Age: 7 (Appears to be in mid-twenties)

Gender: Female

Race: Android

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Headpiece with retractable blade-ears, which can be shot like projectiles, and includes a headphone used for communication over distances, two long-swords with attached carrotnades (which make a pyon~ sound when they explode), and her eyes have modes ranging from x-ray to firing lasers. Because who doesn't like lasers?

Magic: None

Personality: Despite the fact that she has only be alive for seven years, she's programmed to act how she appears, like an adult. She's a serious person, especially when it comes to fighting, and she is annoyed by the fact that at time her body seems to make 'pyon' noises without her meaning to do so. Even though she doesn't joke around much, she isn't unkind or malicious, and she won't attack the innocent or those that are badly injured or much weaker than her. She has a soft spot for kids, and for animals, especially rabbits, for obvious reasons.

Bio: Part of a series of the 'Ladylike Newtype' androids developed at the start of the newest Magitech war, she was made as a joke by a scientist and a mechanic who wanted to make a 'bunnygirl' robot. Her original appearance was more gentle, with soft ears and a fluffy tail, and scantily clad in fishnets and such.
While she was being developed, though, her special 'Learn-and-Grow' A.I. software made her self-aware quickly, and she developed a personality on her own through watching videos of the war on the screen above her, and listening to the conversations around her as she remained locked in place in her Clinical Alimentation and Growth Enclosure, or CAGE, a small glass-walled room where she usually spent her time strapped on a table.
Her newly-created personality hated everything about her situation, and this was picked up on by a young scientists who would often pass by her as she made her way to her own lab. Taking pity on the android who seemed fed up with her situation, the scientists stole her away and took her to her own lab, where she traded in her 'pleasure' arsenal for a more deadly set of tools, downloading proper military and hand-to-hand combat training into her, as well as lessons on swordsmanship. Satisfied with her new life, the android joined Technalia's robot military force.

Name: Kudryavka Faulkner

(For your own pleasure and convenience, you may find it more amusing to envision the voice for the Weapons section to be spoken by Cave Johnson from Portal 2, almost like a commercial)
Weapons/Items held: The number one latest and greatest suit of Tech Armor to come out of Aperture Science!

Covering the hands are the New Portal Gauntlets(tm), which have built in retractable Portal Devices(tm) on the palms, allowing quick creation of Portals(tm) on any flat surface. With a special new gauge, you can now create Portals(tm) of different sizes! However every portal will be equal in size to it's opposite or it will not open.

The Longfall Boots(tm) are a special sort of footwear that allows you to fall incredible distances! We've tested using Portals(tm), and hoo boy, let me tell ya. You can go miles and miles and miles and never get hurt from the fall.

A special bit of Aperture Science(tm) material that covers the vitals. It would take a great deal of damage to even put a tiny dent in this bad boy! It also regulates your body temperature, and protects your body from deep sea Water Pressure (theoretically).

The Aperture Space Helmet(tm) is designed originally for Astronauts, but has a slight re-purposing for combat in this suit. It is also re-purposed for the sake of feminine fashion, similar to the body suit. Instead of covering the whole head, it allows exposure of the hair and is really only a clear visor and earrings. The visor allows one to see all surroundings with a perfect 360 degree vision in all directions, as well as giving a small topographical map of the area within a mile diameter. The earrings? Capable of blocking out Magical Noise. That's right! We here at Aperture have created the first Anti-Magic Technology! And we have more to come, stay tuned.

Magic(if any): None

Personality: (Wip)

Bio: (wip) Rich. Blah. Done with this for the moment.

Name: The Queen of Sacrifice. This obviously isn’t her actual name but there’s only one person around who could tell you what it really is… and said person is equally unwilling to have their name revealed, so it’s a moot point.

Age: Apparently 10. By all accounts, she is much, much older.

Gender: Female

Race: Presumably human, though it’s something of a mystery.

Appearance: The ‘Queen’ has… quite an unusual appearance. There are many things associated with ten year olds that tend to have a worryingly mischievous smile and missing limbs aren’t amongst them. Specifically, she has no left arm—and hasn’t even bothered with a replacement—and if you pay attention to her legs, the left one is so stiff that what’s under there cannot be a natural limb. Otherwise, though, her body is pretty normal, if rather on the tall, thin side for someone of her age. She’s also very, very pale.

Hair reaches down to her legs, inky black and absorbing light. This, in fact, is the only clue that it’s not actually normal hair at all, unless it starts moving of its own accord. Generally, though, it’s just a nice, black curtain. The fringe also covers her eyes, and if moved you can see why she lets it: they’re permanently blindfolded, the blindfold itself being black with a golden dragon on them. Remove that… well, one eye is a black, boiling sphere and the other is a blinding rainbow.

The Queen of Sacrifice also has a taste in clothing that can best be described as: ‘really liking dragons’. The coat is the most obvious about this, being as long as her hair, equally black, and having an actual golden dragon on it. Somewhat bizarrely, it’s got a pair of golden chains keeping it slightly closed (hiding her nipples, basically, since it’s the only thing on her top half). Her lower half has some loose trousers, also black and with the same motif, that reach to rest on her feet… which tends to draw attention to the fact that one is just some dark substance in a vaguely blade-like structure. The other? Barefoot.

There are two final things of note. Firstly: she has a tattoo winding around her body, as seen through the coat. Secondly: the ‘Queen’ doesn’t have a shadow. Her clothing does, notably, but she doesn’t.

Weapons/Items held: None, though you can count her hair as a weapon, I suppose.

Magic: Sacrifice, seeing as how she was the person to create the style and all. She knows a hell of a lot about other magic… but her own actions mean she can’t actually use it. Click the spoiler for a list of what she’s kept, from most important to least.

Spoiler:

Personality: Despite her age and the fact that she could probably kill people just by using shadows to touch shadows and giving herself a kilometre instant-death radius, the Queen of Sacrifice is a friendly girl. She just wants to have fun—‘having fun’ including fighting but not killing, getting drunk, learning stuff (she’s surprisingly proficient with a shortsword, for instance), and sleeping with people—and everything else is just a means to an end. Just… don’t try and upset her, otherwise the extremely energetic child will draw a circle, lose the other leg, and come back with a vengeance.

Bio: Born a long, long time ago, the Queen of Sacrifice here was the Librarian’s friend when they were normal girls. Stuff happened, people died, and things reached their modern day state. She’s not as knowledgeable, given that she can’t read stuff to herself, but she knows a lot of magic despite that. She’s also been more places and drunk far more types of alcohol than most people can hope to ever achieve.

Name: Mk XIII Lolita-Type Sex Robot, Prototype Batch, Unit 7: ‘Nana’

Age: Either 5 or 24, it depends how you measure it.

Gender: Female

Race: Sex Robot, with her programming changed. The hardware and firmware, however, have been left untouched. This leads to the following:
1) She needs to sleep with someone else. As in, skin-to-skin contact. This is really, really awkward for her, since the sexual stuff’s been removed. She prefers to keep to people ‘her’ age. Why is this necessary? Battery recharging. Not as good as food and drink, but these batteries are for less intensive stuff. She’s a prototype, the flaw would’ve been corrected in the final design.
2) She needs to sleep-sleep, for software repairs and similar maintenance. Not just lie there.
3) Nana is very, very soft and pleasant to the touch; you just want to hug her.

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: None

Magic: None

Personality: She’s shy, really really shy, which is somewhat problematic given that Nana is almost compelled to maintain some form of contact with other people. She also hates it when people start to mention sexual things around her, since the change in programming was mostly to improve her thoughts and free will and not to remove existing capabilities or responses. Sexual desires were removed, which makes the arousal somewhat… awkward.

Bio: For nineteen years, Nan did exactly what she was created to do, as the last of this line of robots created (the company went under after moral outcry and most of the others were destroyed in one way or another), for a succession of owners. Practically all of that time was for a girl with a bizarre medical condition who really needed something of her type, from about the age of ten. Fifteen years later, however, it was finally rendered a moot point, and the girl, now a wealthy woman, decided to repay Nana by having her programming altered. She’s spent the past five years as a friend for the woman’s child, before she passed away and was just… handed off.

Name: Sigma

Age: 19

Gender: Female

Race: Human Cyborg; She’s an AI Avatar at times.

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Avatar-class Rifle. Whatever it fires, it seems to create a red beam that, at first, seems harmless. If it’s fired at anything for an entire second, that thing will explode. If trained on the ground for ten seconds, a circle with a five metre radius will detonate. Nasty.

Hunting Pack: Twenty or so canine robots, they each have the ability to bite through steel with ease and are alarmingly fast. The downside is that she can’t replace them at all without going home and directing them leaves her vulnerable.

Avatar-class Armour: You’re better off aiming for her head if you’re not using anti-vehicle weaponry.

Cigarettes.

Magic: None. She DOES, however, have an ability that seems magical: due to implants and how she’s raised, Sigma can funnel an AI of enormous power—one which has half of its processing power dedicated to running a military/industrial city—to relinquish control of her body. Mostly, this is because the AI has access to satellites and can direct the dogs a lot better, as well as overcome the barriers placed on her own physical abilities. She’s designed to go toe-to-toe with a mecha, at full strength, so…

Personality: Sigma is a perverse, lazy girl that takes her low designation and lack of unique features to mean that she can spend this war in pubs, searching for reasonably attractive people willing to have one night stands with her. She’s also a bit on the dim side, failing to notice a lot of things that she really should.

She’d probably laugh if anyone told her she can tell the AI and its forces what to do. Not that anyone but the designers of the system know that…

Bio: Born to impoverished parents, Sigma was handed over with rather a lot of other babies to the project building this city. It was deemed inevitable that an AI might do something incredibly stupid but at the same time need a lower-force way than ‘obliterate the target area’ to deal with things. So, the volunteered children were raised and augmented for this stuff.

Then the war broke out and they got drafted, not having yet finished the training. Fortunately, the AI shows no signs of attempting to do anything stupid and is quite content to sit around waiting. It’s also making back-ups of each of its various avatars in case they die. Having 24/7 access to someone’s thoughts helps.

In case anyone decides to go to the above-mentioned city...

Name: Alpha, Heart of the City

Age: 20

Gender: Neither

Race: AI and Robot

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Discounting the fact she has an entire city and its resources at her disposal, as well as the city’s being designed to withstand anything and everything, the room containing her ‘body’ has the single most over the top defences possible. Gatling Guns that fire antimatter.

Magic: None

Personality: Cold. Logical. Machinelike. However, she has been instilled with a desire to protect her city and its children. This especially extends to her avatars, save for Omega. Omega is her second body, after all, and inherently disposable.

Bio: The City doesn’t have a proper name. At least, not yet. Once the last stages of the set-up—getting Omega fully online and finishing the avatars education (so they know how to rein Alpha in if she starts doing… questionable things), it’ll be named.

---

Name: Omega, Eternal Guard.

Age: 5 OR 20.

Gender: Neither.

Race: Robot and AI.

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Weapons/Items held: Those antimatter Gatling Guns that Alpha has? She has them, even if they’re hidden somewhere… suspicious. She also has forcefield generators, so actually harming her is an impossibility. However, her power source is ridiculously complex and she currently can’t stray from the City’s boundaries without shattering due to lack of support.

Magic: None

Personality: All Alpha’s emotions are designed to be funnelled through Omega. Mostly, this means rage and sorrow. Beware the berserk robot.

Bio: See above.
