Character Information
Name: MAI [Mobile Artificial Intelligence]
Gender: Resembles a female
Age: Unknown
Birthday: Unknown
Sexuality: Unknown
Special Characteristics:
- Robotic Parts - While designed to fit into the human society, MAI's physical body was not perfectly covered by skin-like material. This results in a number of electronic parts being exposed at her left shoulder, side and in the space where legs connect to the torso.
- Memory Box - As an A.I. MAI stores everything she has experienced in her database. She is capable of tapping into this network at any moment and is thus unable to ever forget anything unless she deliberately erases the information or her memory box is damaged.
Personality:
As an A.I. MAI has a configurable personality. She can change her behavior freely depending on her environment or current purpose. However, it seems that there is a number of traits that have been installed into her core system by her designers, presumably to prevent her ever falling under the control of an opposing party, which gives her somewhat stable persona even when her outer behavior patterns may be changed. Unlike regular artificial intelligence, MAI is highly advanced and comes extremely close to sentience, though it seems that her decision making is still based on a pure logic rather than something that could be reminiscent of emotions. That said, she is capable of learning from experiences by expanding her own programming within a set border of limits given to her. This does provide a nearly infinite potential in her evolution as long as she continues to interact with the outer world and gathers useful information of any kind in a manner nearly indistinguishable from the human learning process.
Another core trait of her programming, or rather two different traits, are superiority and obedience. The purpose for which MAI was constructed is an unknown one as of right now, but she was meant to seamlessly move through the human society. Due to such amount of freedom provided, she had to act, unlike other mobile A.I. systems that were simply made to obey. Unlike them, this unit can recognize a figure of authority and depending on their ranking compared to her own make the decision whether to restrict a command input or not. At a basic level, this simply means that she will never obey someone who does not possess the right authority, but will always accept commands from those that do. But due to her ever-expanding programming, MAI became capable of adding these roles within her recognition system. This gives her the option to interact with others at much more fluent and human level.
It also extends to possible combat scenarios where the command can be changed in a matter of seconds due to the nature of war and death that comes with it. Though as a machine that is meant to serve others, MAI only very rarely assumes the command herself and only in situations where there is no other unit and/or person to do so instead. In most situations, she will simply follow instructions of others that might be fighting by her side or enter a free mode where she assesses the situation based on her own being alone and choose the course of action that will benefit her well-being. This ties into a last major trait which seems to never change in her behavior, one of self-perseverance. The unit's appearance and functions suggest that she was a project of great importance to her creators. Whenever she enters a state where the destruction of her core becomes a possibility to be accounted for, all commands including protection of allies might be shut down in favor of assuring that the unit itself is not destroyed. And while this can make her look like a selfish being, it is also something very human imbued into a machine.
Likes:
- Technology - Despite being a robot herself, MAI seems to have interest in tinkering with other machines, especially when it comes to her own arsenal of modern weaponry that not many on Earthland could hope to ever understand
- Serving - As an A.I. MAI was created and designed to serve others. As such, it is perfectly natural for her to enjoy fulfilling this rudimentary purpose
- Loyalty - Betrayal is something rather difficult to calculate, as there are far too many variables involved even for a superior machine such as MAI. A show of loyalty to her is thus very reassuring and removes a good chunk of work off of her
Dislikes:
- Human Clothing - strangely enough, it seems to be unpleasant to the unit's outer sensory. But due to the lack of any reproductive organs that humans have, MIA generally has no problem at all throwing all clothing away if it's not absolutely required
- Obstructions - Living creatures might find joy in conquering obstacles, but machines lacks the ability to find joy in anything at all. As such, everything in the way is nothing more than just a loss of precious time
- Virus - Unlike regular humans, MAI can be much more susceptible to being controlled if there is a skilled hacker on the field. Her programming and technology used to create her are far too superior for anyone to actually completely take control of her, but she still could go without someone trying to mess with her head like that
Motivations:
- Creators - She has a desire to meet those who gave her 'life', even if it were to be potentially disappointing due to her being just another unit made to serve
- Purpose - MAI has found herself in Earthland with no goal set in her programming. While this essentially makes her free to do whatever she wants, she still desires some sort of purpose
- Community - This unit was designed to blend in with the populace of Earthland, at least to some degree. It is in her core programming to want to 'fit in'
Fears:
- Power - While her battery has an extremely large capacity and has a number of ways it can be recharged even in the field, running out of power would be the same as dying for MAI
- Emotions - Something that MAI herself lacks, emotions can often be far too complex for machines like herself to understand. Rather than fearing the emotions themselves, she fears being unable to complete a command because of a human expression emotions she cannot understand
- Destruction - Living creatures fear death, machine fears destruction. For it would mean that it's goals could never be fulfilled
General Appearance
Height: 5.4ft [144 cm]
Weight: 72 pounds [32.5 kg]
Hair: Shades of magenta
Blue, green and yellow when in light
Eyes: Golden
Skin Tone: Pale
Appearance: Designed to be capable of free movement among the human race, MAI nearly perfectly resembles a member of the species. However, there is a number of clearly visible mechanic traits once her clothes are removed, mainly on her right side and back from which even a couple of connectors hanging as she was never made with the idea of living in Earthland longer than necessary. Being of a smaller figure, her body is also extremely light due to the materials used in her construction. Other than these special features, her outer shell is mostly made out of skin-like material that is even filled with human blood. Her hair is of magenta color, a number of other colors added when exposed to light.
