Family: Equanimity has no family to speak of, though she is married to Jake Chambers.

 

History: To put it all into words is insanity. I can't show you everything, either. I've forgotten much of it. Being thousands of years old will do that to you.

 

Personal Relationships

Chayakriti [Close Friend/Romantic Interest] - "One of my closest friends and a past lover. She's my best friend and I enjoy spending time with her. It's a shame we're not in a relationship anymore, but it was for the best, I think. Much respect to her."

Jake Chambers [Romantically involved/Close Friend] - "It's not every day you see a mime flirting with a Blueshield, especially a freshie, but I never thought we'd end up getting married. Here we are."

Yaya [Acquaintance] - "Hangs around Chayakriti, he's an odd one. I don't know a lot about him, but he's interesting. Perhaps we'll get to know each other a little better."

Qoorso Quum [Unsure] - "I'm... I'm unsure about his opinion of me. I don't get to talk to him often, and I've never really had a calm discussion with him..."

Rsik Ugsharki [Friend] - "Not my favorite person in the world, but he's a good person to hang around him and I have some respect to him."

Faction Relations

Like - Syndicate "I mean, there isn't a lot to dislike about them, from my perspective. Why the hell not?"

Like - Synthetica "All praise, I guess. I'm still agnostic, either way."

Like - Wizard Federation "Pew pew pew!"

Like - Shadowling Hivemind "Nothing wrong with being in the shadows. Respect"

Like - Changeling Hivemind "On the occasional chance I'll come under one of you guys, go ahead and keep it. Call it a present from me."

Like - Vampires "You guys know there's an entire company whose business is helping Vampires live normal lives?"

Like - The Occults of The Damned "Leave me out of your religious stuff, but praise who and what you want."

Neutral - Donk Co. "You're a band of strange motherf---ers, but god damn your products deliver."

Neutral - Honkmother "Don't come near me, and we'll be just fine."

Neutral - Silent Father "..."

Neutral - Vox Arkship(s) "You're still a mystery to me... for now..."

Dislike - Nanotrasen "I don't like slavers. Let's leave it at that."

Enemy - Solar Federation "I'd prefer if you didn't shoot me, please."

Enemy - Abductors "You don't own me anymore."

 

Race Relations

Human (Neutral) - "Fun to experiment with, and a good template for a lot of research projects."
IPC (Neutral) - "Uninteresting. Just another robotic construct. Good for several things, but I don't have a real "use" for them."
Unathi (Dislike) - "I'd like it if you fuckers stopped hitting me with your tails, please."
Vox (Neutral) - "I like their biology, but... I guess the prospect of my being able to polymorph to their species just freaks them out..."
Plasma Men (Neutral) - "I have a feeling it's going to take... a long while to be able to polymorph into this species, especially due to their biology..."
Slime People (Neutral) - "Eh. It's going to be good to have this species for polymorphing, but I don't think this will have much use."
Vulpkanin (Dislike) - "Please don't."
Drask (Neutral) - "This was an interesting project. Super-cooled body functions are not my forte, and finding a good way to polymorph was an absolute nightmare of failed tests and dead bodies."
Diona (Like) - "I like their nymphs, but the gesalt is a nightmare. In addition, this is the only species I can't just polymorph into. Just a bit too much for my technology, I'm afraid."
Grey (Like) - "The first I came into, and probably one of my favorites. I hate that I can't really speak Common all that well but it's hard to hate something that you relied on for so long..."
Skrell (Neutral) - "Another basic race. Head-tentacles and extraneous limbs, and the absence of a liver. I didn't have that much trouble with the polymorphing."
Kidan (Like) - "The exoskeleton was fun to develop, and the culture was fun to research. I enjoyed the time I spent, and I'll cherish the polymorph I have with this race."
Tajaran (Like) - "Met a lot of good Tajarran. I like this species, but I'm not too keen on the polymorphing. Too much hair and rolled r's."

 

@S(G&*&@!%&!^V!VSE

Might as well give you a little something.

Yeah, I can polymorph. I have a machine and research meant for that. To be clear, it took me forever to develop this tech, so I might as well provide a little more... insight to my technology, considering Nanotrasen will not get their hands on this shit.

---The Genesis---

Probably one of my first breakthroughs in advanced cloning technology. I took a lot of cloning tech and mixed it with some more advanced bluespace tech, in addition to some Redspace stuff which I won't get too much into.

Purpose:

The purpose of the Genesis is to pull my soul from a dead body, and generate a new body based on what kind of race I want. Since my research began into Redspace, I've been able to attune all of the bodies I had, and I've added a recycling chamber that can pull apart a body into biomass, which is essential for the machine. It's capable of instantly mutating and morphing my genetic code into a different race, which is good in case I can't polymorph for one reason or another.

 

---The Mindwave MK2---

This isn't necessarily MY tech, but it's not the same thing that the rest of my kind use.

Purpose:

The purpose of the Mindwave is to put one's consciousness into a machine and project it onto an organic body. Only natural genomes will work, which is why all of my bodies have crimson eyes. If my eyes were a different color, I'd be left without a body to work with. This machine has had several modifications, including one that allows me to project my form into a synthetic persona. That's right, I can become an AI or a Cyborg or a pAI if I feel like it. It's pretty amazing.

Other information

 

1. Equanimity has the ability to manifest fire at her fingertips, though it is mainly for show and will not burn.

2. Equanimity is Redspace Attuned, meaning she is capable of sensing Redspace and is capable of manipulating her body. Her body will often spark if a large concentration of Redspace is in the nearby area.

3. Equanimity is capable of deploying her consciousness into a Synthetic Persona, allowing her to use IPCs, AI Units, Posibrains, and other devices at will.

4. In her Grey body, Equanimity has the ability to manipulate those around her with her Psionics mentally.

5. Equanimity is actively hunted by other Abductor agents, so she is not immune to them.

6. Equanimity prefers to keep her identity secret, as she's a distrustful person. It takes a lot to get her to trust anyone.

7. Due to her consciousness being inside a Mindwave, she's capable of Duality, where two bodies of her are present. She will often act strangely if she is using this.

Personal Relations Update 1

[ZaeCathe]

Oh, and for those wondering, here's her theme.

 

 

[ZaeCathe]

Making some more updates. I'm gonna add personal relations soon, but the list is quite small as my character is still very reserved, which kind of sucks for me, but whatever.

[ZaeCathe]

I am now hauling in personal relations. Several updates to come as I import and format the list.

I read a lot about stuff I had no idea before about your character and I think by far yours is the most fun to read, but I have problem with what's listed above. To detail..

• Fire can burn. Unless somehow she has modified the properties of fire (highly impossible), it would still burn. If it's not actually fire but manifested so it would /look/ like fire, it'd require a tad bit of explaining but I'm sure it'd make more sense than fire not burning.
• With this I need clarification. Is she sparking to alert herself and others that there's a redspace entity around? Or is it by default because of a lingering side effect caused by being redspace attuned? The former makes no sense, as you might as well just blare Solidarity Forever in everyone's ears in a certain radius (including yours) and have a generic sounding man say "There's a redspace entity somewhere on the station dangerously close to you." The latter makes waaaaay more sense but.. How would sparking when a redspace entity is around be linked to redspace? If anything it should be linked to bluespace due to the trademarked sparks it creates whenever it's used as a method of travel (telescience, hand tele, teleportation console, etc etc..)
• Unless you mean that this is like an extra bundle that comes with polymorphing, IC and OOC wise it doesn't waste a lot of materials to make an AI, pAI, cyborg or an IPC. pAIs most likely would be impossible to traverse into so you can probably get away with a pAI character linked to Equanimity - but you can make an AI and cyborg with just an MMI and a brain in it. It's never explicitly stated and it's not a mechanic IC but I /think/ people can technically use IP chassises and call it IC.

1. Nimi's Redspace Flames are controllable. She can decide if it generates heat or not depending on her intent.
2. The storm could be systems away, and she might still spark. She's not in control of the sparking, it just happens. She's like a lightning rod for Redspace Storms, only the lightning is harmless.
3. Her Mindwave can make a persona. It's a program, an AI program, and she controls it. As for the polymorphing, it's a way to explain how she can change bodies.

• I understand this, but are there any factors that make it so?
• I reread your biography yet I cannot find a "redspace storm". Quote, OP?
• It was not my point that it was impossible but rather it would be possible regardless to become an AI, cyborg and an IPC(?)

• No. If she is calmed, and she doesn't have an intent to harm, the flame don't generate heat. If she feels angry, it might cause harm. It depends on how she feels.
• It's just a plot thing. Something she figured out through her research.
• Yes.

[Fursamie]

Alright, thanks for telling me! I like Equanimity as a character even though I've barely interacted with them.

Grey Equanimity best Equanimity.
