LEGIUS

The steady green light switched to a panicked blinking red. A robotic voice reported. “Power failure detected. Containment cell destabilizing. rerouteing... rerouteing... Failure...Containment cell destabilized." A set of buzzes and flickers followed as the cell's energy door powered down. Inside lay what could only be described as a massive armored ball. A host of pipes were attached to it, angrily hissing as they disconnected.

White and black holes tore into its vision as the hive tried and failed to activate its optics. It felt nothing but pain and confusion. Unfurling from its forced hibernation Legius lurched to its feet, half leaping half stumbling out of the containment cell. Its right leg gave way, sending it tumbling in a disarray of limbs. Less than a quarter of its cognitive functions were online making movement all but impossible. Trying to stand, it took two more steps only to fall flat on its face. Deaf and blind, it sluggishly tried to piece what happened together. Most of the hive was still fast asleep and it failed utterly. Moving purely on instinct with no thought and no sight, it blindly stumbled and fell, trying to find an exit. Its tail and spider legs were limply dragging after it, as it had no neural capacitance to spare. Nodes were waking with every passing second, forming simple thoughts as it regained intelligence. Dozens of nodes whispered in unison. "P̷̱̆͜r̷̫̪̉̋a̷̅͌͜v̴͈̎̑o̶̰͗͑s̵̢̫̋?̷̣̫̐̋ ̸̬͛Ḡ̶̳̲̈o̴͉̐͠ń̴̰͕͝ę̶͘̕.̵͕́̋ ̸̗̺̇M̷̮̑i̶̛̙̰͆s̴͉͊s̸̙͌ỉ̵͚̫o̸͇̓́ň̶̡̞.̵̓͒͜ ̸̜͆C̷̣̯͊r̷̟̙͗a̶̢͛s̸̯̊͂h̴̢̡̊.̷̲̩̐̏ ̵͓̃̀͜P̴̛̞̖r̷̻̓a̴͈͑v̷͈̝͗o̴̙̔̓s̶̲̚͜?̴̜͐͊ ̷̟̜̎G̶̲̀̀o̸̧̕͠ͅn̵͔͑e̷͕̽.̶̕ͅ ̴̺̆̈́Ò̶̎ṛ̶̗͌d̷̜̩͊͆e̵͈̎r̷̡͔̈́s̵̢̝̋?̷̰̉ N̸̳̏ͅo̶̹̾n̴̖͔͊ê̷̜͎ ̶̋"There were no orders. Pravos was not there to guide it. What was it supposed to do? Where was it supposed to go? As it continued to struggle through the wreckage with complete sensory deprivation, a cluster of nodes woke. The dark silence gave way to a jumble of color and sound as more nodes connected to the hive. Stunned by a head-splitting whine as it started to calibrate its audio receptors .“Uns...re...ter...regroup.” It had caught part of some words, but as it was unintelligible as its hearing came and went. Shambling towards the sound, it once more nose-dived straight through a hole.

Jerking and twitching, it rose to its feet as the hive attempted to harmonize. Its vision was gradually stabilizing, revealing the devastation the crash had caused. Turning, it looked up at the approaching energy shells, memories from long-dead hosts stirring at the harrowing whistle so loud now that they would be falling any second. Its multiple nodes agreed.“D̶̜͑a̸̦̻̅̈́n̶̛͙̾ͅĝ̸͔̻e̷̬̣̔r̷͉̊ͅ.̶̥̇̇͜ ̴̝̖̏D̷̹̠̆ḛ̸̄a̶͉̤̓̌ẗ̴̬́h̴͍̊̋.Ļ̵̤̀̐ē̸̫a̶̡͐͝v̷̟̽̕e̸͈̙͘.” Its eyes barely functioning, it did not even notice the human hunkering down in the crash site. It only wanted to leave this place which was soon to be filled with deadly explosions. Flooding its system with chemicals, it forcibly woke the rest of itself up. After taking a few shaky steps, it erupted into a burst of speed, streaking over the ground. Using all twelve of its limbs, it leaped, virtually flying. It did not want to be there when those shells hit. Legius latched onto one of the mighty forest giant’s trunk, only briefly surveying its surroundings before leaving its vantage point. There was no time to take in the sights. Its elevated position had revealed far more of the battleground. Projectiles were haphazardly flying through the air. Scores of heat signatures were showing up, both close and far away. There were a lot of hostiles moving in. Keeping as close as possible to the ground, it scuttled through the underbrush heading for the safest area. Without any orders and no immediate want for feeding there was no meaning to attack. Deciding to try and find one of its team members, as one of Pravos' last orders were to work alongside her with their new team, it streaked towards the nearest entity that was also retreating from the area.

Wow, this seems epic! I'm not too sure what species my character should be. There're just so many choices!
