Personality

If she were to describe herself, Andrea would say that she is, in every sense of the word, completely unremarkable. Just another person who moves through life without ever doing anything note-worthy or generally leaving much behind. A stance she keeps on asserting despite still being very young and having plenty of oppertunities ahead of her. This, however, might in itself be part of her problem - namely that she has very few interests outside of some very generic things. This lack of motivation means that she had always simply moved through life, doing things that seemed interesting at the moment but never headed towards a grander goal.

Even something as major as joining a deadly game like TerraSphere was decided on a dime with the sole purpose of simply watching others have fun and figure out the various reasons why they would play something as dangerous as this game. That said, somewhere along the way, she came to subconsciously want to help, despite still seeing herself as a distant observer and nothing more. Living out and helping with motivations of desires of others while having none of her own, that seems to be her current way of life in the game.

Positive: Compassionate, determined, patient, loyal, open
Negative: Occasionally pessimistic, overly trusting, lonesome, drive-less

Background

Andrea never understood why she got one of the infamous glitched emails with a downloadable client. Her life was nothing remarkable, coming from a family of slightly above-average wealth, attending school like everyone else. Almost all of her decisions were made purely on her own feelings in the moment without much consideration for the future, eventually landing her in a university programme she had no particular feelings about, instead of one she would actually enjoy. Yet, she didn't particularly mind the monotony of life either, satisfied as long as she could find enough time to do more entertaining things, such as playing games or watching videos online.

After receiving the game, however, things changed a fair bit. She had never heard much about TerraSphere, aside from what was common public knowledge. Game with unknown developers somehow capable of killing its players outside of the game - banned for many years only to apparently reappear as of late. It was something a sane person would avoid and ensure their own survival, or perhaps explore a bit before pulling out. But Andrea figured she would dive in a bit deeper. Not for her own entertainment, but out of curiosity. She wanted to know why people would keep playing a game where real death was a possibility - to become an observer.

This in itself became the girl's reason to keep playing such a dangerous game. And despite seeing herself as nothing more than a distant observer, she quickly became immersed and eager to help other players with their own adventures. By following the ideals of those around her, perhaps she too will one day find something she'd want to strive for, and finally have a concrete vision of her own future. At least within the confines of this strange, yet beautiful game.

____________________________________________

To be as versatile and flexible as possible, MAI has chosen to explore just about every avenue there is when it comes to the usage of Magitech. Due to the lack of general specialization that has resulted from this, the girl instead opted to create several specialized combat protocols that specialize in certain areas. Unable to effectively utilize all of them, their usage heavily depends on the girl's preparation prior to any encounter. Their specialization is also in line with the common division of one's abilities, that is protocols that focus on support, offense, and defense each. Though in more general situations, or when all else fails, she often also relies on her magitech drones to do her bidding due to their sheer versatility.

A support-oriented protocol that heavily incorporates the aspects of space-time in MAI's magitech. Often utilized in tandem with certain body modifications such as radiant wings composed of hard-light plates, the usage of this protocol can at times invoke the imagery of an angelic being, thus contributing to its name. However, beyond anything that has to do with the aforementioned body modifications, this protocol is most often utilized by summoning a field command sphere - a holographic sphere around MAI herself comprised of countless images and datasets. Once created, the sphere can pulse out or directly send out mastery-based aids to allies within range.

Understanding the limits of her own body, MAI had switched her focus after the events of DRAGON.End. While keeping the protocols affecting her body directly, she had also started developing a protocol specifically to command countless kinds of drones that are stored inside of her [Fallen Swarm] weapon. All of these bots are based on all of MAI's other masteries, making this field particularly diverse and capable of tackling just about any problem, as long as the solution was prepared beforehand. Due to this limitation, a handful of bots designed to deal with various generic and frequent situations are always at the ready while anything further requires a bit of fieldwork or learning from the experiences of the past.

A defense-oriented protocol that heavily centers around the usage of MAI's alter mastery - Aura. By infusing the malleable mastery with others, primarily Astramancy, the magia is capable of creating a so-called blanket of time-space which is capable of distorting reality itself and therefore hindering the efforts of hostiles. Though this is often very effective, it is also the most draining of all protocols, requiring considerable energy expenditure and focus on MAI's side to ensure that these effects are only hindering the progress of enemies and not her allies as well. When focused even further, this aura does often appear as a floating blanket embracing the girl and those around her, taking on the appearance of a window into outer space with countless colorful nebulas and shining stars. Perhaps this beauty alone can distract those who wish to bring harm.

Originally Known as the Handler's Lullaby, a power that Szofrit exercised to gain unconditional control over magia, Lander, and Starcalled alike. In this manner, she took control over MAI and entrusted the lullaby with her to convert others at a more efficient rate. However, after being broken free of this control, the lullaby remained with MAI. Though she no longer possesses the Handler's authority that would allow it to control other magia, the girl modified the lullaby to give it a calming effect whenever her fellow mechanical kin hear it. In tandem with the efforts of others, this power was enough to capture Szofrit and end the strife she had started.

Last Dreadnought Core

Heavy Armor

An extraordinary core that was salvaged from the DEAD.Naught following its defeat. It seems to be free of dissonance, unlike most magia that had anything to do with Vintergard, thus allowing mostly seamless integration into MAI's own body. While it performs all of its usual functions, such as keeping the magia alive and allowing them to function normally, this extensive matrix is also powerful enough to boost the body's defensive capabilities to the absolute extreme. Creating a constant, invisible layer of tough barrier both on top and just beneath the magia's skin, it ensures that the individual is fully protected from all manner of attacks no matter what kind of attire they might be wearing if any at all. Simply perfect when one wishes to keep the benefits of heavy armor while still looking stylish and light.

Fallen Dragonship Artillery

Weapon

A large magitech platform salvaged from the Dragonship after the decisive victory against Szofrit, Mother of Machines. Whatever this piece of the floating ship served is no longer known, as MAI had re-purposed it to serve as a portable storage and maintenance bay for her drones. The container itself is quite large, about 2 meters long and half a meter wide, as well as thick. Thankfully, it is equipped with an anti-gravity module that allows it to float weightlessly behind the user and follow them wherever with ease. Similarly, it is equipped with a cloaking module, allowing it to turn invisible so it does not detract from the beautiful scenery. The variety and amount of drones stored inside is truly vast and often dependent on MAI's own preparations beforehand.

"You cannot taste foods or beverages, but are still required to consume these to replenish your food and water meters. These meters take far less nourishment to replenish.You also do not replenish your rest meter while sleeping. Instead, you must remain inactive near a source of magical energy for X hours. You can roll 3d4 or take the average (7) to determine how long it takes to replenish your rest meter. If your rest meter reaches 0%, you will shut down until it recharges to 10% at a much slower rate."

An artificial body is both a blessing and a curse. But MAI had quickly learned how her new avatar works in the world of Arcia, familiarized herself with the advantages and disadvantages, even figuring out how to counter some of them in the process. Now she simply makes sure that her batteries, both internal and external, are always as charged as possible.

"You specialize in a certain area thanks to bold optimization. However, the optimization process has unintentionally given you a speech or behavioral quirk. Create one such quirk for your character, for example; constantly sharing your internal thoughts, picking up fallen leaves, fiddling with small circular objects, or adding suffixes like'-nyon' to the end of your sentences."

A trait acquired by interfacing with hardware left behind by the DEAD.Naught in the aftermath of its defeat. This newly downloaded module allows MAI to easily store information in her memory, allowing her to memorize and recall things effortlessly, while also allowing her to perform higher cognitive functions on the spot. On the other hand, it caused her speech pattern to become considerably more machine-like. This negative side of the trait can be temporarily negated with strong emotions or the expenditure of a considerable amount of energy.

"You can approximately translate that aspect of spoken or written languages foreign to you, respectively. If it is spoken, you will hear a robotic voice translating the words in your head. If it is written, your field of vision will render the foreign writing in your primary language of choice instead. The quality of the translation will largely depend on how common the language is. You will also be able to write or speak (with a robotic voice) in foreign languages with the same quality of translation as your comprehension of that language."

Over the course of her adventures, and more importantly, interfacing with other magia, as well as magitech related to the fallen dragonship, MAI had acquired a great deal of understanding when it comes to languages of Arcia. As a result, she was able to develop an automatic translation module that allows her to parse both written and spoken language into something more understandable.

"You can taste foods and beverages like any fleshy being. In fact, your faculty of taste is amplified, making you hyper-aware of what you're eating or drinking. Once consumed, you can analyze your meals in superfluous detail, such as identifying all the ingredients used to cook it, the age of the food, its overall nutritional value, the techniques used to cook it, etc."

Food is one of the great pleasures of life, and living without it, even if just in Arcia, didn't really sit well with MAI. Digging in her own guts and programming was one of the first things she did, right after learning how to operate her new mechanical body, all so that she could change some things around and regain that precious sense of taste. Though she seemingly overdid it a bit, enhancing her senses in the process. Not that she complains about it...

Another trait has yet to be selected
