[list][*][u][b]Name:[/b][/u] ARI(Artificial Rift Intruder) Unit-001, affectionately known as Alice by her creators [*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 1 [*][u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=https://www.deviantart.com/vitavitaar/art/Robotgirl-798187629]Pale, with platinum blonde hair and pale blue eyes. Blue jacket and equipment, bodysuit is white and black. Very short at below 5'0.[/url] [*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] ARI-001, or Alice as her creators most often refer to her, is a very quiet, expressionless individual. Indeed, in most respects she seems to be completely emotionless. One could easily be forgiven for believing that to be the case. However, closer observation will reveal that Alice does indeed possess emotions, albeit they are usually extremely subdued. Due to her extremely advanced artificial intelligence, Alice's behavior is remarkably humanlike, though still stilted as she does not truly understand how to express herself. Alice does not understand many human social conventions, but she is highly curious and possesses an interest in learning about the world and people around her. While she is unlikely to voice her questions, she is highly likely to observe the world around in in a rather intense fashion, which may seem a little disconcerting given how often this leads to her staring at people. Alice also possesses an interest in animals, particularly small, fluffy ones. In spite of her curiosity, Alice will do little to encourage interaction with herself, still having a viewpoint that she is a 'tool' made for the purpose of rift diving. Tools don't often talk with humans. She will immediately prioritize the lives of others over herself, up to the point of causing extreme damage or even catastrophic damage to herself if it means protecting others. It can be said that any sense of self-preservation she possesses is immediately lost when the lives of others are in danger. [*][u][b]Attribute:[/b][/u] Alice is not human and therefore is incapable of possessing an attribute. However, a prototype 'Artificial Concept Engine' was installed within her during her creation, allowing her to mimic the attribute 'Light'. This is mostly for the purpose of generating infinite ammunition for her directed mana weapons and has little use beyond this as of now. [*][u][b]Abilities:[/b][/u] Alice is not human, nor is she organic. As such, her body is considerably more durable then it would appear, and she is not at risk of blood loss or injury in the same manner as a human. However, as a system intended to avoid her unnecessarily causing serious damage to herself, she is capable of feeling pain. Alice is an artificial human, a robot created for rift diving with the use of advanced technological and magical systems. These manifest in the form of her armament and equipment. There are three stages of deployment of her weaponry, each unlocked with an incantation and confirmation code. The default stage is Argent Gamma. In this stage of deployment, she is equipped with a set of mana-based laser cannons fueled by her Artificial Concept Engine that can also serve as a shield, and a chain-blade weapon inscribed with 'fairy letters' discovered in one rift that allow it to damage magical defenses. This is her default combat stage. The second stage of deployment is Argent Beta. This stage of weapon deployment combines her smaller laser weaponry into a single cannon, and creates a hard-light mana blade projected from her chain-blade. More potent, but less versatile and slower, as well as consuming more power. The final stage of deployment is Argent Alpha. This trades her melee capabilities away entirely, in order pour all her energy into an overwhelming ranged attack. All her equipment is transformed into a single enormous magical cannon, a high-grade anti-fortress weapon capable of vaporizing solid manner with a single shot. Known as Vorpal Cannon, it taps directly into her core energy supply, and firing it can cause enormous backlash damaging her internal systems. A weapon of last resort that can cripple her operations or even destroy her entirely. [*][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] Alice has absolutely no skills practical for survival. However, she would like to learn how to cook, in spite of never mentioning this to anyone. [*][u][b]History:[/b][/u] ARI Unit-001, or Alice, is the product of a collaboration between the Shiokawa Institute of Magic-Technology Hybridization, based in Japan, and the Robertson Institute for the Advancement of Robotics in the United States. The goal of the collaboration was to make an artificial being capable of performing action within the rifts. Indeed, they wished to create an artificial Rift Diver. After many years of development(and a not-insignificant number of failures), the ultimate product of this effort, ARI Unit-001, was created. Designed in the form of a young girl(due to the influence of the Shiokawa Institute and one of the notable scientists designing her schematics, as the Robertson Institute was initially intended to create something decidedly more manly), her creators began to refer to her as 'Alice' due to both her appearance and the idea that she would be 'entering wonderland'. She has only recently been cleared for experimental deployment, though she has entered rifts prior to this point she has never done so with others. [*][u][b]Other:[/b][/u] NA[/list]
