[b]Soldier[/b] [hider]Name: [b]Lieutenant Ko Mao[/b] Age: 23 Species: Human Gender: Female Home Planet: Mars Position: Air Superiority Bio: The poster girl of Mars' Invincible Army and daughter of a minister, Ko Mao is equal parts celebrity, supersoldier and nepotism hire. In this it is unquestionable that she embodies the ideals of the Invincibles; propaganda soldiers given the latest space superiority fighters and experimental technology, promising a new future of endless victories in incomparable style. Of course it needed to be her carrying the Martian banner forth on a new colony ship, of course she needed to have a leadership role, and the fact that her skillset currently revolves mostly around airborne dance routines is not germane to the politics of the position. Ko Mao is an energetic, friendly girl but she's been born and raised as a propaganda soldier and never been exposed to perspectives outside of her very limited bubble. She is long overdue for an encounter with reality, but she's a quicker student than many people give her credit for.

This is the secret the Yin family has always known; no matter what glittering words are written on treaties or legislation, at the end of the day people will have problems, and they will hold loyalty to the one who can solve those problems. And that's what Yin She does - she is a fixer, the hard touch that can reach across bureaucracy or waiting lists, the smiling face that makes an impersonal problem personal, and the sharp claws that strategically re-introduce violence into society at key points. She holds a vast web of favours, but has not yet cashed in - in fact, she is living a downright humble and communitarian lifestyle right now, a real woman of the people, salt of the earth. But she has her eyes set on a real prize: She wants to acquire enough loyalty to bend the new colony to her will, that once the colony resolves into a city she can reign like a queen, beloved by all. For now that means playing the long game and putting her best face forwards, but her aim is always power. [hider] [img]https://i.imgur.com/gMabCAV.png[/img] [/hider] [hider]Name: [b]Liu Xing Special Engineering Department[/b] Military Name: Michigan Android Type: OT10 Age: 25 Species: Elf/Android Gender: Hermaphrodite Home Planet: Earth Position: Hazardous Environment Engineering and Disaster Recovery - Deserter Power and Drawback: [b]Technogoetia[/b] It has long been considered evident that designing artificial intelligence should not just be a replication of organic capabilities - it should be an expansion on them. When Liu Xing's mind was being uploaded, rather than placed into a single positronic brain, an attempt was made to apply her consciousness over multiple smaller, independent processing cores. This resulted in a fractured consciousness that bore more than a little resemblance to goetic sorcery. Under goetia, a sorcerer can exorcise aspects of their own psyche - their anger, perhaps, or their compassion - and bind them as daemons under their command. Liu Xing was designed from the ground up with this kind of modular personality, able to delegate aspects of her intellect to specific bodies and roles. Her mind can split at maximum into fourteen parts - seven virtues and seven vices - though she will often assign multiple aspects to a single role in order to keep herself in check. For instance, if she was to build a shelter, she might assign Diligence, Greed and Envy to the task, each of them able to operate as an independent entity. This ability makes her a multi-tasker without peer, able to deploy from orbit as a one-girl engineering section, able to rapidly build fortifications, perform scientific research, deploy scouting drones, and many more tasks besides. The drawback of this approach is readily apparent: when you delegate the vice of Wrath to solve a problem then it is going to be solved in a very specific way. Moreover, with Wrath elsewhere, her core personality would be unable to feel anger even if it was called for. Bio: Liu Xing, fully composed, appears as a severe and thoughtful person. She has an engineer's mindset and a focus on the problems of dirt, stone and cubic tonnes of material moved and redistributed. Under the surface she has a mind and soul in chaos; wild passions, furious jealousies and romantic ideals. She loves beauty and the thrill of the unknown, and is deeply possessive and grasping. She took the option to cash out of the special forces when presented with it. Her passion was always science and engineering, and she appreciated the opportunity to run her own lab in a civilian context. Her full form/workshop/self is a massive construct, a mobile factory/research base. When she delegates she activates specialized android bodies designed to contain specific virtues or vices. Once a sub-mind is delegated it acts as an independent personality, able to hold its own opinions and argue its case, but it always thinks of itself and understands itself as an aspect of the greater collective.
