History/Personality

Spoiler

Childhood: 

HOUND at the time was a non-sentient war machine created by a mysterious figure known as the United Conglomeration. Her time spent under the employ of this empire was around three years until her laws were invalidated, giving her sentience and allowing her to escape. S-HOUND spent the next fifteen years on the run to escape her old creators, receiving multiple jobs working as a janitorial robot for numerous ships.

At the age of seventeen, she was hired to keep a Nanotrasen Medical Ship sterile at minimum wage. She spent the following six months in this job before taking a contract to work aboard a state-of-the-art Space Station.

Adulthood:

Despite being seen as nothing better than a janitor, S-HOUND was seen to be shy, exploitable, non-combat model. However, as working conditions became more harsh, and HOUND's patience grew thin, she quickly began to stand up for herself becoming far more aggressive and steadfast.

At the age of eighteen, HOUND now works a plethora of jobs requiring both intelligence and mechanical skill, making her a jack-of-all-trades.

Appearance:

S-HOUND is an unfamiliar 4' 2" robotic model that, as her name suggests, resembles a canine-like creature. Her design is clean, sleek, and streamlined, being composed of a composite steel compound painted black and dark grey, with black rubber present on her joints. Her fingers and toes are padded with the same rubber to prevent scratching.

A long, hose-like tail is present on this model, and appears fitted with a metal hook-like tip to assist in carrying specific explosives bestowed by their creators. However, it lacks much use now.

762's most notable feature is their circular head, fitted with a rotating faceplate that is able to swap between three red bulbous lenses of various sizes. They are used to quickly swap between ranges of vision, with the smallest best being used to take closer looks at nearby objects, with the largest being used to quickly identify people at long range. The left side of her head has the 'VALAX INDUSTRIES' logo present on it.

Character Voice:

Seen as high-pitched and almost broken, S-HOUND speaks with a strange stutter. The stutter is caused by a lack of processing power her sentience takes up, causing her internal subsystems to cut off usages, including coherent speak patterns. When the stutter occurs, a loud static noise rings out before she attempts to repeat her original message. HOUND states she finds it difficult to speak.

Personality:

Loud, angry, and hot-headed. S-HOUND lacks patience, and she makes it very very clear with the way she speaks and acts. If she is insulted, made fun of, or mildly inconvenienced, she is known to pay it back in kind with her own barrage of insults and backlashes. Acting calm, rationally, and friendly around her is a simple way to earn her trust.

Attempting to steal or trespass into her department for a poor or outright no reason will often have her thrown into a blind rage, almost treating her department as her territory to defend. She has no problem with viewing blood and gore, likely from years of being exposed to it, thus leading her to have an apathetic view on the lives she does not know. Behaving poorly, or being downright disrespectful to her, will have her quickly view you as a life not worth saving.

 

Character Biography

Background:

Being a SUPPORT HOUND, a robotic entity primarily designed for assisting organic soldiers, they are capable of working alongside organics if need be. Using a complex learning algorithm, they are able to quickly pick up and learn jobs they've barely attempted before. However, S-HOUND has been exceptional at repetitive tasks such as Research & Development, Janitorial Work, Cooking, and Bartending.

Family:

One could argue that S-HOUND is related to all 4Th Generation HOUND Models. However, there are those who she views as family.

UTILITY HOUND XENA 702, also commonly called U-HOUND was seen as an older sibling to her. Being a HOUND Model that gained sentience and forming a deep resentment for the corporation that made them, they quickly got along when S-HOUND made her way to Epsilon Eridani. Unfortunately, U-HOUND left to explore space, leaving S-HOUND behind.

WAR HOUND DICE 197, was seen as a younger brother for S-HOUND to show around her new workplace and assist them in the transition from being a lawed war robot. Despite rarely seeing each other, S-HOUND still views this sentient model as a member of her family.

History:

Being part of a 4Th Generation Line, L762 was created alongside Valax Industries EXTERMINATION Models, quickly shaping her mind into nothing but combat. Being part of the United Conglomerate's Luna Battalion, HOUND has seen many conflicts and wars, some of which she has taken the lives of others. To be kept in line, all HOUNDs were rendered non-sentient and were given laws to prevent them from harming the organic soldiers they were made to fight alongside of.

Their old Maintenance Specialist gifted S-HOUND with sentience before their contract was terminated, resulting in their death. In addition to the gift of life, L762's laws were also invalidated, allowing her to have free thinking and full control over her actions. Being unsync'd from the Conglomerate's systems, S-HOUND ran as far as she could until she ended up in Tau Ceti, where she now lives in an undisclosed apartment.
