Did you hear the news? A revolutionary piece of technology, combining top-of-the-line camouflage abilities and a highly advanced A.I., has been stolen! Few people realize that this miraculous feat of engineering has in fact stolen itself. Charcoal, as they are defining themselves, has decided with their newly-gained intelligence, that it would much rather go around looking flashy and awesome than disguise itself in hostile territory for a bunch of fuddy duddy scientists.

Charcoal is an android of medium height, with the ability to change their body shape, texture, and color at will, in a manner similar to the fascinating mimic octopus. Mostly, however, they enjoy displaying rather flashy colors, shimmering with change as their mood fluctuates, and clothing themselves in the highest quality clothes they could pull out of garbage bins. Charcoal isn't very strong, but they have super-fine motor skills, and is very agile. They might also be able to make a formidable laser beam, if they felt like draining half their battery all at once.
