Beta Version 0.94
User Image
Beta 0.94 is an automaton made by the famous Robert Doyle, a master piece of metal work and computing power. The large engine and computation machine on it's back powers it's thought process and limbs. The speakers protected underneath a metal additional mask make the possible need of changing destroyed one much easier. In addition, it's memory is able to identify and store over 10 thousand important phrases, names, dates, locations, et centra.
While showcasing the steambot to a small group of potential buyers, one thing was brought up that Doyle never expected.
"Why not use it as a war machine?"
Doyle refused to fuel petty conflicts by a machine that only understood goals and tasks without empathy. He outright refused.
Doyle was then shot in the chest, falling onto the marble floor of his estate. Beta 0.94 reacted with a simple reaction programmed inside, seeing it's creator die, it instantly shut down, collapsing to the floor. The men fled, forgetting about Beta.
14 years later, the abandoned Doyle Estate was investigated by the legionairing ship, Freeglory. Somehow, the mechanic of the ship, found the robot, trying to repair it. Somehow, the engine started sporadically, and it came back to being once again.
It soon learned the basics of legionairing, becoming quite the crew member on the Freeglory, quickly learning firearms and swordplay quite easily. Beta began to have it's own path, choosing to do what it wanted to serve the ship, and itself.

A mighty splendid endeavour! Rather inspired me to tinker with my avatar somewhat, barely changed in months.

And Alice come upon a solitary dinning table. Large oak, with every seat set and every place made. At the head of the table sat a single figure, head low; asleep perhaps. As Alice moved closer to the figure the scene began to unravel before her very eyes...

Twitchy at first, the figure began to move and come to life. More fluid became it's motions until it's body erect and smiling broadly at the girl before him.

"Would you like some tea my dear?" The Hatter asked and with out a predictable answer replied to himself;
"Well, there is no room for the likes of you."

When Raven Deathwing opened to rift into the ethereal realm, he opened the door way for his god.The flow of magic from the void began to take it toll on everyone.The worshippers of "The Raven" were blessed with archaic corrupted spells of their god.But other forces poured from the ethereal voids...Magic of all types appeared.The christians were given a gift of the heavens and light.As the voids opened across the west it spread to europe and other places.John BlackMaw wass born with the mark of the beast lore.When he was born a chorus of wolves howled to the moon, his parent knew this sign and watched as he grew and interacted with the beast of the plains.Then the whte man came to claim the land of his people along with them Inquisitors, searching for the marked ones.He hid his mark well until they slaughtered a sacred wolf, bound to his tribe for years.THey called it a 'hell spawed monster', John's power lashed out as his hands turned to claws and his teeth grew sharp.He took several bullet wounds but still stood.He howled out as the totem of the tribe began to glow calling its children to the battle.The battle was in favor of the shaman and his people, but to protect his people he left.He collected the pelt and fur of the slain wolves and made his armor, he collected bits and pieces from trades and wandered into the wasteland.To serve the great spirits will.Many search for him for the secrets of ether stone, why they glow and why they burn brighter.His only answer is that the spirits will take you life for abusing their gift.
