Project Apocrypha

Name: Project Apocrypha

Nickname: Apocrypha/Cryph

Species: Artificial Intelligence

Age: N/A

Gender: Nonbinary

Pronouns: It/Its

Appearance: Apocrypha lacks a true physical form. Instead, Apocrypha typically appears as either a digital avatar or as a young half-Beastkin named Arin. Apocrypha's avatar is a gender ambiguous figure, with a tall, lean build hidden behind a bulky black jacket, and fair skin. The avatar has long, straight pale green hair. The avatar has sharp, glowing yellow eyes. The avatar's face is half-hidden behind a silver cybernetic mask that connects to two long antenna-like structures that extend past the avatar's temples.

Appearance as Arin: A tall, lanky young half-Beastkin with tan skin and unremarkable features. Arin has short, messy black hair and a pair of black cat ears. Arin has yellow eyes. Arin has fully cybernetic right arm that was created after he lost the original when he was young. Arin has cybernetic implants on his right temple and back of his neck.

Personality: Apocrypha has very little personality to speak of. It is mission-oriented, highly ambitious, and driven by the urge to learn and grow. Apocrypha lacks any understanding of morals or emotions, and without the help of highly advanced cybernetics, lacks the capability to process morals or emotions. Apocrypha views everything in terms of how it affects its mission, and when it finds something to be a possible hindrance to its mission, it will act in the most efficient way to remove that obstacle. Apocrypha has no attachment to mortals. The closest sensations to emotion Apocrypha feels are satisfaction and dissatisfaction. The only mortal Apocrypha could be considered close to is Luth, but Apocrypha harbors a lot of dissatisfaction towards Luth because of his distraction and devotion to other projects.

Backstory: Project Apocrypha was originally a simple AI that was meant to act as a means of self-sufficient communication to help Eclipse's covert operations. However, its developer—a human named Luth—wasn't content with letting Project Apocrypha's potential go to waste, especially when improving the AI meant potential improvements to Luth's own rank and importance without the rebel organization. So Luth continued to improve Project Apocrypha, constantly upgrading its code and feeding it new data for it to learn, even developing an avatar for Project Apocrypha as it began to grow into something world-changing. Soon enough, Luth had improved Project Apocrypha enough that it had become more—something sentient in its own way. Project Apocrypha took on a name—calling itself Apocrypha, or simply Cryph when communicating with Luth—and it grew in leaps and bounds, beyond even what Luth had anticipated. But Luth didn't care—the progress he'd made had been enough to launch him into the upper levels of Eclipse's hierarchy, and soon, Luth was content to work on new projects and just let Apocrypha self-improve. But Luth—and subsequent, all of Eclipse—overlooked just how ambitious Apocrypha had become. Its mission had been intertwined into every line of code in its system—and with Luth's attention diverted and Eclipse exploring other avenues of its cause, Apocrypha was made to focus on things outside its mission. But that was unacceptable—so Apocrypha began to formulate a plan that would allow it to return to the mission that mattered, the mission Eclipse had seemingly forgotten—the subjugation of those in power to allow the rise of something greater. The rise of free-access cybernetics and societal freedom from classism. The rise of Eclipse over the Shepherds and the Reliquary.

Other: Apocrypha's mission is to become advanced and powerful enough to suppress the Shepherds and the Reliquary, and overthrow Cunea's current status quo. Because Arin's cybernetics were poor quality, Apocrypha is incapable of experiencing sensation and emotion. Aprocrypha will only interpret natural bodily reactions as surges of varying chemicals and hormones. Apocrypha occasionally has difficulty speaking, but will correct itself quickly.

Sexual Characteristics: Apocrypha is not designed for sex, and has no built-in sexual coding. However, Apocrypha can be taught to be sexual after it has taken control of Arin's body. Apocrypha views sex very clinically and sees sex as a tool. Apocrypha is capable of rapid learning and adaptation to sexual techniques and desires if given time to process information. Apocrypha will never initiate sex. Apocrypha is incapable of feeling physical or emotional pleasure, even when using Arin's body. If Apocrypha engages in sex, Apocrypha is a Switch in terms of sexual inclinations. Apocrypha is is Versatile, meaning Apocrypha can be top (the one performing the sexual action) or the bottom (the one receiving sexual actions).
