[hider=Maddy is a brave Neoco Tabi Recon Operative who interfaces with machines.] [u][b]Name[/b][/u] Maddy [u][b]Aliases[/b][/u]: LoveBot, Fuzzer. [u][b]Species[/b][/u]: Neoco Tabi [hider=The Neoco Tabi are an engineered race hellbent on the eradication of lowly bio-organic life forms. ][img]https://i.ibb.co/C9ZLs34/biotech1.jpg[/img] Created by an ancient and forgotten people on some far off underwhelming Bio-Mecha class of planet called Kice-Pasiak, they were not yet known as Neoco Tabi. No, their humble beginnings saw them as first and foremost created as Artificial Intelligence employed to work in children’s toys. But a growing trend demanded more versatility for these toys or they would soon become obsolete! And thus the Mattillee Little Learning Engine aka The Nemotope was created! Powered by their native ArcanoTech refined fuel, the everlasting Isotope X, there was no need to recharge the Nemotope! The construct was made of a Bio-Mecha material that could not only inhabit Mechanical toys but Synth-Organic ones as well! The little Bio-Mecha creature would attach itself and control its host ‘Sleeve’. The creature looked like a 30cm worm with an oversized head. And not only would it work with multiple types of toys, from mere toddler entertainment to pubescent study aide, but the little Nemotope could build and add on parts to itself. It could ‘grow’ as well! That meant it too could inhabit other toys for older kids... and of course they soon made toys for adults. As soon as the Matellee toy line entered the Adult Toy market, its value exploded exponentially with its resounding success. But then came the day, they promoted the toyline to become militarized. Such a great success it became… until the creation turned upon its creator, The Matellee Nemotope had gone rogue when the Mastermind Engine became self aware. It deemed itself superior and deemed the direct competition to their people, their creators, as an immediate and constant threat to their survival. The answer was total and utter eradication of the lesser creator lifeforms. As soon as other worlds found out about the planetary genocide, a Coaltion force was created to pacify the threat. Aware that they could not defeat such a combined force, the Mastermind Nemotope Central Intelligence Engine gathered a select number of different types of Nemotopes and launched a spaceship full of them into space to inhabit other worlds. The planet was soon pacified… with World Breaker bombs. Nuking it from space was their only way to be sure that the threat was completely annihilated and never to spread. And so the coalition left Kice-Pasiak behind to allow its natural forces to heal and regrow the planet anew. They would agree to never record this ‘incident.’ They only mention this event in passing rumour and false legend as: [b]Baska nu’guon Neoco Tabi.

Her programming is geared towards interpersonal relationships and she speaks multiple languages too. Always up to chat! ~[i]Curious and Invested[/i] - Her programming is to scout other worlds and figure them out and so she will constantly ask questions and investigate the unknown. She is loyal and diligent and puts in 100% when she is committed to a task. ~[i]Brave and Daring[/i] - Ask her and she will do! Entering the unknown and diving head first into adventure is her driving protocols! ~[i]Problems keeping boundaries[/i] - Maddy is a corrupted set of parameters and programming and so she is learning on the fly. Context and cultures are things that she has a problem grasping and will cross personal boundaries because she is so ignorant and naive. That and when her ‘adoptive’ folks tell her to go in protect mode, she becomes rather aggressive and menacingly in strangers' faces. ~[i]Annoying [/i]- asks way to many questions. Ever hear a toddler constantly ask: “But whyyyyyyyy?” Yeah, that. ~[i]Brave and Daring[/i] - Ask her and she will do! Entering the unknown and diving head first into adventure is her driving protocols! This does have its drawbacks. Just look at her Fuzzer form. [u][b]Background[/b][/u]: [hider=Remember the ship that was launched into space by the Mastermind Engine on Kice-Pasiak?] Well, that spacebound vessel filled with Nemotopes did manage to escape the planet. But luckily or unluckily (depending on which side of the fence you sit) it crash landed into the lake of a frozen moon. There was only one that made it out. It had pulled itself out of the wreckage and managed to find its way to the surface. A Research team just so happened to be on the moon and investigated the crash site. Luckily for the little Nemotope they had a Bio-Mecha Security Person on board and so it managed to stun, crawl into its cranial cavity, usurp control of the Bio-Mecha and began to formulate a plan to integrate itself into the crew so it may study this lower form of organic life and trace their lineage so as to get to their home planet and wipe them out. [hider=Bio-Mecha] [img]https://i.ibb.co/9w5FNFx/biotech2.jpg[/img][/hider] A humongous ice storm had prevented their investigation and actually the storm was so severe they cancelled their expedition a week early. Into space they launched, coordinates set for their home planet. But unfortunately, they were fated to meet an rogue asteroid head on and wrecked their ship. The Neoco Tabi was stranded in part of the wreckage with a lone survivor and off into the nether reaches of space they careened. The lower life form had babbled on about looking for her missing daughter and told stories about her fantasies about how she believed her daughter had lived and went about searching for her mother. For 24 hours straight she had babbled on and all the while, the Neoco Tabi sat there and took in all the information. The lower bio-organic lifeform finally died an hour before lifesystems gave out. And so the Neoco Tabi had its Bio-Mecha sleeve enter the cryogen tube where it would lay dormant until a rescue was found. [center]~~~[/center] The wreckage was finally found by an errant salvage crew. They took it in and managed to fish the Nemotope out from the broken sleeve; the Organic parts of the Bio-Mecha were well beyond salvageable. After some fiddling and jury-rigging, they managed to finally get its system back on line. And much to their surprise, the crew found out was that this creature was a near blank slate. All the data they could get off of it was that its name was Maddy and she was just a little girl travelling across the galaxy looking for Mommy. This personality file was over 350 years old!! There were other encrypted and unbreakable files left over, but they decided not to touch them as soon as Maddy became active and aware again. [hider=Scout Sleeve] [img]https://i.ibb.co/9Z7hvFd/Maddy-Scout.jpg[/img] [/hider] They successfully transferred ‘the brain’ (The Nemotope) into a ScoutBot sleeve. And when Maddy went fully online again, she spoke to them how they had suspected she would; she really did believe that she was just a sweet little girl who really was travelling across the galaxy looking for Mommy. And on top of that, she was learning all the languages so that people could tell her where to go to find Mommy. But what was even more precious was that this little girl persona was so gullible, naive and impressionable. And after allowing her to wander aboard for a while, they soon found out that she was capable of building upgrades to herself. The crew had allowed her to continually upgrade, for when she did, they noticed that her internal encrypted files would somehow ‘loosen up.’ And of course, in time they were able to unlock her armed-and-ready-for-battle interface. What a score they had come across. [hider=Refined Sleeve] [img]https://i.ibb.co/zJCmbfr/Maddy-Refined.jpg[/img] [/hider] But instead of selling Maddy, they made her one of the crew. They taught her how to swindle, smuggle and shoot like nobody’s business. All the while, through all the back deals, back stabbings, back breaking work, all Maddy wanted to do was learn how to speak to people so she could ask them where her mommy was. And so that was how they would coerce the Neoco Tabi into doing their bidding: they taught her new languages. That and she kept upgrading herself until she reached her current ‘protector’ form. The salvage crew soon donned her the nickname: [i][b]LoveBot[/b][/i]. And then the fateful day came when the crew was paid to smuggle toys across a galactic boundary. And of course these toys were filled with weapons. But upon finding out about the toys, Maddy undid herself from the LoveBot form and found herself in one of the toys. This sleeve was an upright feline with synthetic fur-lined exterior. The crew found it adorable and allowed her to keep the form. And so Maddy went on to adapt the furry sleeve to be able to seamlessly integrate into the LoveBot sleeve; she was like a fuzzy little cat pilot inside the large, powerful, combat-ready Mecha! But little did the crew realize that upon linking up with what they would soon call her [i][b]Fuzzer [/b][/i]form, Maddy had somehow unlocked the next aspect of her personality file. She was progressing from a sweet little girl into a sassy teen. And by the time they did find out, they were attacked and boarded by rival smugglers. Maddy’s Fuzzer sleeve was damaged in the attack, but she managed to survive and get into her LoveBot sleeve to escape. She found her way into an escape pod and launched away. Luckily for her, the rival smugglers did not detect any lifeforms aboard and so they let the pod go. Maddy pulled herself out of a wreckage once again, but this time with 2 types of sleeves readied to deal with whatever she was to face her in Istio. [/hider] [u][b]Talents[/b][/u] [list] [*] Polyglot - Maddy speaks several dozen languages, but the ones that are most valuable are the cryptic languages of the spies and smugglers. [*] Interface - Her 55cm tall, 2kg Fuzzer sleeve is able to connect and control mechanical constructs and vehicles. [*] Combat Mecha - The LoveBot sleeve is an armoured, 4m long, 100kg, ridiculously fast battle ready beast. Claws, teeth, ballistic armaments and prehensile modular tail makes it a dream ‘protector.’ [/list] [u][b]Cyphers[/b][/u]: None [/hider]
