If you think that is a character you would be interested to play as, sure! It's something I can see being unique, especially when our toaster typewriter starts correcting him on proper grammatical sequencing when he starts quoting 'ye olde engrish'.@Jeyma I've got a question though, even if I'm not religious myself but I do have a few friends who are, these religions don't seem to be too keen on using recordings instead of a human voice to recite verses of their bible during prayers. What other function could a robot who quotes their bible serve?

This is unorthodox, so I'd like to gauge the waters:

My robot was previously used in a Christian church: he was not anything more than a basic servant/worker bot, but he was just barely smart enough to pick up on and understand the religious ceremonies going on around him. He gradually adapted Protestant teachings into his programming, with some encouragement from the Preacher.

I think it'll be interesting to have a (otherwise simple, very primitive) robot who suddenly throws spiritual comparisons into things, and still tries to understand his world through those eyes.

Buuut I know that's non-typical for robots, so I wanted to get other opinions first. What does everyone think?


I definetly dig the idea. Imagine the robot thinking that it was his fate to be abandoned here. A lot of cool extra bits you can add to the RP with religion.

On the sidenote (sorta), I will be ditching my character fairly quickly in the RP, so don't expect to get on good terms with him. He'll give you the philosopical kickstarter, but even after I'll find a way to interact. The idea is not solid yet, but you'll just have to see :D

On a not-so sidenote, I will be making the RP as soon as possible. Likely today, but tomorrow is my self set deadline for it. Fire up your servos and boot your OS.

@Jeyma I think it sounds interesting. I think if you roll with this character it would be a really interesting development in character if they we qouted texts trying to be helpful, but have absolutely nothing to do with the situation. Then as the story develops and our characters become more aware, your robot starts to find pieces that are helpful and have meaning.

That's just my thought though.


I might do something like that, yeah.

The question is, though; in the span of 800 years, how long until he starts to not believe anymore?


That IS the question, isn't it?




@6slyboy6

Submitted for your approval.



I hope this made sense

If anyone didn't understand it, ask me.

That IS the question, isn-

Okay, I guess I actually have to answer this one.

It memorized the Bible mainly because the Pastor (his owner) wanted to decide if a Robot could have a soul. It was a test, in a way- to see if Bible verses had any impact.

@Jeyma I see! It really sounds like something a modern priest would do.

Maybe? I don't know, maybe (definitely) his owner was a weird guy.

@Doug

Quick question while we wait for the IC- how will you manage the multiple "personality packages" of Mark 8?

Will it switch between personalities at random, or only when another robot changes it manually? Or maybe it's stuck on one, or lost all personalities and is just on a "default" setting?

One idea: it could have been damaged over time, and so- regardless of what personality it is at the time- it constantly hears the opinions of all the other personalities in it's head. Like a schizophrenic typewriter.

The packages shown on the CS were the different models of personalities. One typewriter could be made with the Blabbering Bookworm personality, while another was packaged with the software for the Gung-ho Girl. Sort of like a "Build-a-bear" kind of deal, but instead of different voices it's a complete person. But, I do like your idea for having the Mark 8 have to deal with multiple personalities. Perhaps I'll integrate that.

I honestly adore this style... My posts are probably going to get long though XD filled with blank space XD Especially when I need to actually have to say or do something rather than just wake up from a few thousand year nap.
