@Infamous Empathyou're right. I should have went with Cameron Michell from Stargate for my main guy.

Back to working on the IC.

[Infamous Empath]

@TheUnknowable I will refrain from making obvious FarScape jokes IC XD

[TheUnknowable]

@Infamous Empathmy character's a geek that likes old sci-fi (look at his robot bodies). He'd probably get it. I might not.

[Infamous Empath]

what? you havent seen FarScape? @TheUnknowable

[GarlandChaos]

You guys have room for one more?

Titania

Name: Titania

Age: Created 3 years ago

Species: Robot

Role: Freelancer

Gender: Programmed as a female (Assuming your species has gender, List here.)

Appearance: Titania stands tall at a rather impressive 7'2". With a tall, almost entirely jet black body adorned with white socket-like protrusions all around, very large hands, shoulders and forearms, and an expressionless 'face', it's hard to not feel at least a little intimidated by this gentle giant.

Personality: Titania is capable of intelligent thought and independent decisions; however, she is a worker robot first and foremost, and will prioritize the needs and wants of others over her own. If someone is in trouble, be it physical, emotional, or mental, she will do her best to assist them however she can. The priorities of who or what Titania will help are determined by whether the person or thing is something she has been assigned a specific name and details of, and how severe the situation is, with the former usually taking precedence over the latter. If they/it are unknown, Titania will not assist them unless ordered to or if the problem is major, such as a high chance of death or destruction. If a registered and authorized person gives Titania an order, she will ignore her priorities and obey that command unless told otherwise.

History: Titania was originally intended to be a fighting robot, but halfway through development, her AI was altered to prioritize helping others over doing them harm. The routine is still stored inside her memory chip, but it's stored in such a way that it will only trigger under certain conditions, such as if Titania must defend herself or others, or if there are no other options. The decision to change her core behaviour was made by a scientist who shall, at least for now, go unnamed. They were added halfway through the project's construction, and wanted a creation who would hopefully bring peace and not war, since most automatons in that era were designed for the latter. Strangely enough, that same scientist apparently died a few months after Titania was finished. Whatever the case, his creation lives on, and so does he, in the routine he decided to implement.

Equipment: Despite Titania's main function as a worker robot, she does have an attack routine implemented in the case of an emergency. Her massive hands become lethal weapons, capable of denting steel with a single punch, as well as being able to generate electric shocks upon contact. Titania's elbows can also extend into blades, much like a set of tonfa. In the event of long-range combat, she can either throw anything expendable at her target or fire short bursts of machine gun fire from her hands. However, as previously stated, these are only in case of emergency, and Titania will avoid engaging in combat if at all possible. She is primarily a worker robot, after all.

Activity: I log on just about every day, but may take a while to get any posts up during weekdays because of classes and family reunions every Friday. I usually get out of classes around 4 PM (GMT -0500), and family reunions usually end around 8 PM.

Extras: Journal entries and the like written by those who worked on the project refer to Titania as a 'T200 series model'; however, official records show no such thing as existing. Perhaps Titania was supposed to have been mass produced?

If I messed up anywhere, please let me know.

@GarlandDaHero I like this character. I feel like it needs a companion thats way out of their depth.

Achieng

Name - Achieng, Clan Chima
Age - 26
Species - Watamaji
Role - (Choose from one of either the free or limited roles. For a limited role, please message me or a GM. This will dictate where you'll be starting in the roleplay.)
Gender – Female
Appearance - Achi is heavily curved, with dark brown skin, topaz eyes, and short white hair. Her skin is extremely smooth, cool to the touch and slightly wet at all times. She has fingers that are half webbed. Instead of legs, she has a long tailfin. It starts the shade of her skin, but shifts to a brilliant orange-gold. Like most of her race who traverse the galaxy, she wears a sheer bodysuit that covers her from the waist up to the neck and arms. It is made of a material designed to draw moisture from the environment and stay damp to protect the Watumaji's skin. Over that, Achi usually chooses to wear a tunic from her home planet, one that is brightly colored and patterned, as well as jewelry that seems to be made of coral and bone.
From the waist down, she is settled in a water tank that is about the size of a personal scooter. The tank rolls smoothly on two treads, and Achi maneuvers it with a small control panel.

Personality - Achieng is gentle-hearted and caring, and at first glance would seem an odd choice for the military. However, she has an acceptance of all sorts of beings, and her position as a counselor makes sense to those who go to see her. She can hear terrible things, stories of war and blood, pain and grief, and take them in without judgement or reproach. She listens, and she comforts, and only offers advice when it is asked of her; sometimes people simply want to be heard, not corrected. Outside of her role on the ship, she is friendly to others and usually quiet. The only time she would show any fierceness is if she was in personal danger, or someone was harming another person in front of her.
On the other hand, even when she’s not at work, she finds it difficult to share her own story and lean on other people. She feels like her own heart could break, but that her entire purpose is to be there for others no matter what. If she hurts, well… that’s just how it must be. She would never admit to feeling so isolated.

History - Achieng traveled with her parents around the planet, her mother being a singer that would visit great cities and small towns alike. Her mother's voice was said to be heard even by those whose souls had joined the Sea, and so she was requested at many dignitaries funerals. Unfortunately, Achi's mother became ill and never recovered. She died when Achi was still a child. Her distraught father took her to the home of her aunt, promising to return for her soon. He never did.

Young Achi grew up isolated. She was shunned by the townspeople, and shamed by her aunt. Her aunt considered her a freeloader, and her own past jealous of Achi's successful and well-loved mother came out on Achi herself. Her uncle did nothing to stop his wife's poor treatment of their niece. Achi's only solace was in her cousin, who ignored his mother's opinions and treated her as a sister. The two grew up close, and he was Achi's savior.
Unfortunately, her aunt was not much kinder to her own son, and as soon as her cousin became of age, he pledged (married) to someone and moved far away from home. While he did offer to take Achi with him, she declined. Left on her own, Achi honed her singing in secret, growing more controlled and powerful by the turn of each tide. She also did everything she could to earn money, trading, bartering, and singing for pay. The day came when she too, became of age, and she wasted no time in gathering her meager possessions and leaving. It took her nearly ten years to work up enough money to attend a galatic university. There she excelled in her courses and
Equipment and Skills-
Water suit- Absorbs moisture from the environment to keep her skin wet and cool.
Travel tank- Contains space for her to rest, and water for her to rest in while she's on land. Moves on two treads and has a small hand control.
Vocal mask- Achieng has a tech mask that fits over her mouth that can be used to direct her already powerful singing into something that could be weapons-grade lethal.

Fishing knife- While she can only do so underwater, Achi is well trained in the use of a knife made to hunt fish. She calls it a knife, but it's half the length of her arm and hooked at the end.

Singing- Like all of her people, Achieng can speak and can also sing in what her race calls wimbo-kusema. The closest comparison would be whalesong, but a Watumaji's is much more powerful and loud. Some of the tones range below what many beings can detect, and some range far above. Achieng has a natural talent for it, and can be extremely loud to the point of causing damage if she had to be.
Diplomat- Achieng is an excellent speaker and can smooth talk with the best of them. Her background in psychology makes her very adept at navigating social situations, and knowing a lot about many kinds of beings prevents awkwardness and species faux-pas.
Swimming- While she is inhibited by her tank on land, in an aquatic environment, she is far more at home. Achi is a swift and graceful swimmer, and does not have to breathe underwater.
Activity – I work from 9am – 6pm, and I’ve got D&D on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Most if not all of my posting will be on the weekends, but I will do my best to pop on after work and keep informed. My job does not allow phone use or internet use outside of what is necessary for work, so I won’t be able to get on during. If there’s something urgent, tag me in post or PM me. I try to at least check those during my lunch break.

Extras –
-Achieng sleeps in a big tank.
-Achieng probably won’t sing openly unless she’s alone. For anyone to even know how well she can sing, they would have to be well-versed in her species, or catch her in the act.
-It’s considered a sacred rule that anyone who visits your home must leave with a meal. That said, Achieng keeps little candies that she gives to visitors, because not giving some kind of food to either a client or visitor is akin to insulting the gods themselves.

Here's my girl. I don't know what role she has to have. Also there's stuff in her backstory I have left out, because I would like the Gm and any co-Gm to make a ruling on whether it's allowed.
