Question, Slint. You said we could move through districts. How would that be possible? And would Sektor have any issues traveling to say District 4 to meet with Kate?
Alright, made my first IC post. It's mostly a flashback post of how Sektor escaped the facility, so it's taking place 2 days before now.
[2 DAYS EARLIER - LOCATION; DISTRICT 0 SCIENCE TOWER - 1400 HOURS]
Dr. Johann Clark moved through the open hallway at a hasty pace, his leather buckled shoes echoing off the black, smooth tile floor. His white lab coat flailing behind him, and an advanced screening tablet tucked under his arm he moved with a purpose. Approaching a sliding, glossy black door. Entering password into the keypad a hiss of compressed air sharply sounded as the door slid open. Dr. Clark moved through, the door closing with a slam behind him, a red light from the keypad signifying its locked status.
Dr. Clark entered his lab, a large, dark room with wide square windows overlooking the massive cities of District One. In the middle of the room was a long surgical table, upon it was their experiment: Unit 0.18462958, the most advanced AI model to date. Metal restraints held down the hands and feet in case the robot were to be hostile upon activation. Dr. Clark looked towards his colleague, Dr. William Mars, his helper in this experiment.
"Dr. Mars, are we ready?" Dr. Clark asked excitedly. The former looking back. "I am nearing the final stages of activation, just running a diagnostic of all systems."
"Oh to hell with preparations. Science is about experiments! We can't waste our time running through petty preparation protocols. Just activate it!" Dr. Mars was prepared to object, but his colleague's fiery eyes filled with excitement and stubbornness told him otherwise.
Pushing a few buttons on the console, a loud whirring sound was heard. The lifeless husk of a machine on the table began springing to life; lights all over its body began lighting up, finished by the large light that serves as its 'head'.
[SEKTOR'S POINT OF VIEW: ACTIVATION]
First it began as a small blue dot in a center of darkness lit up. The dot began to grow larger, until suddenly there was a flood of light. The machine awoke, it's vision overlay colored varying shades of blue. Boxes of texts began to appear in the side of the HUD; [MODEL ACTIVATION - IDENTIFICATION CODE: 0.18462958 - RUNNING SYSTEMS DIAGNOSTIC]
[DR. CLARK'S POINT OF VIEW: ACTIVATION]
As the machine woke up, Dr. Clark and Mars could only look out in complete awe and surprise. With the push of a button, the surgical table rose up slowly until it was facing upright. The robot looked about curiously, finally breaking the silence with a series of sharp, almost reptilian clicking sounds. It's 'head' swiveled about aimlessly, landing right onto Dr. Clark. Suddenly it spoke, a cold, metallic voice that only vaguely sounded human.
"Unit activated. Model identification number, 0.18462958." It spoke the numbers in cold efficiency, no emotion whatsoever in tone. "You identify as Dr. Johann Clark - born in District 0. Qualifications: Doctorate in Robotic Science." It turned it's head to look at Dr. Mars, "You identify as Dr. William Mars - born in District 1. Qualifications: Doctorate in Computer Science." It suddenly froze, completely and utterly still.
"Running systems diagnostic: Head systems, working at 84% capacity. Torso functions, working at 100% capacity. Appendage systems-" The robot awkwardly began to clench it's 3-digit hands. "Working at 38% capacity. Inefficient. This unit must rectify situation." It continued moving on, "Central computer systems, working at, 89% capacity. Additional systems, thermal overlay, working at 100% capacity. Night vision overlay, working at 100% capacity. X-ray vision overlay, working at 100% capacity." It looked down at the flabbergasted doctors once more. "This unit is only working at 76% of desired optimum efficiency. This unit requires updates of core software to ensure it is working at 100% systems capacity."
"Remarkable." Was all Dr. Clark could utter in this state. "I can't believe it worked. It *actually* worked!" Dr. Mars, however, seemed less than impressed. "Dr. Clark, a word please." He requested in a stern voice, motioning towards the office door. The robot looked at Dr. Clark curiously as he slowly followed his colleague. They both left the office, leaving the door opened by a crack. Dr. Mars began to speak,
"Johann, I don't trust it. I feel uncomfortable enough we didn't run the necessary protocols before activation. But the robot already knows us by name and birth district!" Dr. Clark shook his head and laughed. "William, this is why I run the experiments. Safety is for idiots and cowards. I let you restrain it, but what do you want me to do now, shut it down?!" "That may be a possibility." Dr. Mars returned back indignantly
Back in the office, the robot increased the range of its audio receptors, hearing the entirety of the conversation. A text box appeared in the middle of it's HUD, [HOSTILITIES DETECTED - SELF-PRESERVATION MODULE ACTIVATED: EXTERMINATE ALL HOSTILITIES]
It looked down at the arm and leg restraints, a distinct stretching sound heard as it clenched its fist. A clang echoed off the walls as one arm restraint was ripped off of the table, its companion following after it. The machine broke off the leg restraints as well, hopping down from the surgical table and clicking ominously. A whoosing sound was heard as the robot became invisible, the only way to detect it being a transparent, rippling shape almost undetectable by the naked eye.
"Did you hear that?" Dr. Mars asked warily, turning towards the office. "William, I have no idea what you're talking ab-" Dr. Clark was unable to finish his sentence however, as he looked down and saw a massive hole in his stomach. The cloaked robot having plunged it's arm through the doctor's abdomen. He could only gurgle and croak out sounds before collapsing with a loud thud. Dr. Mars had no time to react, as his neck was sharply snapped by the hostile machine.
The robot prowled the facility, killing anyone in his way who recognized as a threat.
Hours passed and the facility had been ransacked. The robot stood in front of one of the wide windows, overlooking the bright skyline of the city. It looked about slowly, "Unit identification number inefficient. Designation required, affirmative, unit designation: Sektor."Suddenly, Sektor smashed through the window with a single fist before jumping out without a second thought, plunging towards the ground below....

Name: Unit 0.18462958 - Designation: SEKTOR
Gender: n/a - Male programming
Age: Activated 48 hours ago
Appearance:
- Sektor's model is tall and imposing, standing at about 6'8". The arms, legs, and portions of the torso and spine are made up of artificial synthetic tissue, allowing malleability and flexibility not dissimilar to organic muscle movement. The rest of Sektor's frame is covered in lightweight, yet sturdy white plate metal. Sektor's 'head' is equipped with a communication module, allowing communication between multiple signals, targeting system, and night vision/thermal vision/x-ray vision overlay. Sektor's frame is also capable of an active camouflage, becoming effectively invisible.
Personal Details: Personality: Sektor does not express individual personality, instead viewing itself as a AI Guardian unit. However, it will show loyalty to any organics it has deemed worthy and will sacrifice itself for them if need be. Sektor focuses on logic and calculations above compassion or empathy and will calculate situation choices based on probability and statistics before making a decision. Sektor's most interesting feature is its emulation feature, a residual program that studies and copies the behaviors of organics around it. Allowing it to eventually 'grow' a personality, however the 'type' or 'strength' of the individual personality has not been observed.
--
History: Little is known of Sektor's existence. Rumor of development of an advanced AI beyond the normal realm has been around for quite some time, but only a select few from Districts 0-3 were given any information on the subject. Sektor's construction went well and there were no faults, except for a self-preservation program. Upon 'hearing' two of the head scientists discussing possible deactivation, Sektor activated the self preservation program, and killed 67% of the science team in the facility before escaping...
Occupation: Guardian Unit AI
District: 0 currently
Additional: Sektor will most likely be leaving the district as soon as possible, seeking a safer haven.

I use Google honestly. The picture I used for Sektor (and my own avatar) is the Geth from Mass Effect. I always loved their design. It really depends on what you're looking for.
I was hoping someone caught that.

Honestly, roleplaying a robot is both the easiest and hardest thing I've had to do. You can take a naive look at things, have fun. But at the same time it's all logic and calculations. Emotion is illogical, for now, at least. ;D Foreshadowing!!
Understandable, keep the mystery alive. The hardest thing I find to do is that when designing a character, to talk the talk, you have to walk the walk. By that, I mean, if someone has a character who's a nuclear physicist, they need to KNOW something about nuclear physics for the character. Keep it as real as possible.
