Kira (WIP)

[u][b]Homeworld:[/b][/u] Gummi Space/Haloverse (see history)


[u][b]Name:[/b][/u] K1-R4, a.k.a. Kira, Serial Number ZIV-1214-4


[u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 13 (mentally in her 30s)


[u][b]Species:[/b][/u] [url=http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Smart_artificial_intelligence]UNSC Smart AI[/url] with an incorporated human soul and lifespan


[u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Female Programming


[u][b]Abilities:[/b][/u]
- As what the UNSC calls a "Smart AI", Kira is exceptionally intelligent and has a capability to learn, with a wealth of knowledge both due to her reasoning and to the fact that, as an AI from real-life time of 2018, she has knowledge on games that have been released up until that time before they happen (this will not be overused, just enough for exposition purposes).

- She is an expert hacker, with superhuman speed and various processes, including her "decoy chaff" method of replicating all of her nonessential files many times and throwing them at antiviral programs, and others.

- Although not a great fighter, Kira is capable of using her Baton in a variety of ways, especially the Cable option in order to get around. That said, she is not built for combat, though she will defend people if she needs to.

- Also, as a result of reformatting Space Paranoids entirely, Kira has intimate control of its devices and properties, including security programs, terminals, and cameras, though she rarely needs to use this, and it is only possible within the world itself.


[u][b]Powers:[/b][/u] As an artificial intelligence, none of Kira's abilities are usable outside of a computerized world such as Space Paranoids or the virtual Twilight Town, unless transmitting through a device that can interact with the outside world.
- Cyber Magic: The magic of machines and the cyber; you could almost say that this is more of a science than a magic. It holds no sway in the undeveloped wilderness, but is on par with the most magics when in a semi-modern society and incredibly powerful in a cyber-world; almost to the point of making a highly skilled programmer a minor demi-god. In non-cybernetic settings, the manifestation of this magic is blue electricity, but in cybernetic settings, it is in the form of minor image glitching. This magic type is weak to electromagnetic powers, as they can cause spells to malfunction and backfire. Although she has the capability to learn all of the spells in her set, her current spells outside of MegaModel KZ are:
-- Surge: An electrical surge is sent through an object (biological or technological) that can be anywhere from highly debilitating to moderately damaging.
-- Bitmap: Only usable on a fully cybernetic world, this allows the user to temporarily merge with the surrounding area to a minor degree. While they are incapable of reacting while this merger is in progress, the user will have a full map of the area written into their head.
-- Backdoor: A level-up of Bitmap with the same limitation; this lets the user merge with the immediate environ to get a mental map of the area and- to a minor extent- alter it.

- Creation of imperfect copies of self, nonsentient, mostly for messages or distraction if not routine maintenance while she is away.

- Phantom Drive: Digitization of enemies and compacting them within a portable digital copy of a world. Can send imperfect copies into it. Depends on will of the subject. She obtained this power from Death, one of Zatrion's NPCs.

- Vital Sign Survey: If in an armor that can be used to judge, Kira is able to see the vital signs or basic emotional ranges of the wearer, though she generally has no need for this, and only uses it to make cracks about them.

- KZ Merger: A form that she can attain with Zero. Specifications are listed in the Super Form Listing thread. Limits unknown aside from fatigue.

- [i]Redemption[/i] Control: As the AI of the Gummi ship Redemption, Kira can control the ship's systems when in it, not including steering.


[u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] Formerly, Kira was a kind, patient AI who aided her allies with information and access to armaments in extreme situations. Nowadays, since her merge with the other AI Sain, she has become easily angered and impatient, except with certain people she likes. She acts this way the most with respect to Greg Zivaku. When angered sufficiently, Kira is prone to violence, whether against a person or the environment. However, she is on relatively good terms, if somewhat sarcastic, with those she trusts. That said, the trust is hard earned. When it comes to romance, she has no interest herself, but often makes offhand comments at the expense of others if they do not admit how they feel themselves or are overly sentimental for her tastes. Above all, however, she is afraid of her imminent [url=http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Rampancy]rampancy[/url], not having gone through it previously.


[u][b]Alignment:[/b][/u] Good


[u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] As a UNSC artificial intelligence, Kira does not have a static form. However, she does have a preferred avatar. For clothing, she has a white undershirt beneath a navy coat that doubles as a cape of some sort above her dark blue pants. The shoes themselves are white boots that had slight "wings" off to the outer sides. Her eyes are blue, her hair black, straight, and a little past her shoulders. She also has [url=http://images.wikia.com/halo/images/7/7c/Forruner-Base-Glyph.png]this symbol[/url] over her left eye. She also has multiple burn scars over her body, though they no longer cause her any pain. She also has two markings, one on each of her arms. On her left arm is a white hexagon with a T shape turned sideways on its right side, the top of the T facing the hexagon and much larger than the bottom of it, a symbol that marks her as essentially a Tron era ISO. On her right wrist, she has a scarred in symbol of a red "Ω", symbolizing her remaining coding of Omega within her, in multiple senses of the word "Omega".(Note: This clothing choice only occurs on worlds where no other changes automatically happen, as with Space Paranoids.)


[u][b]Weapons:[/b][/u]
- Virus_Pistol.ARM: Virus pistol. Obtained through the world of Coded Arms during her stay there. A green pistol that poisons targets in addition to normal damage. Rarely used now, but it deals damage depending on the enemy type. For human type enemies such as Interferences, it deals a high amount.

- Longsword: Part of programming. Simple silver longsword with a lion on the hilt. Almost never used now.

- [url=http://tron.wikia.com/wiki/Baton]TRON System Baton[/url]: Obtained from a derezzed Sentry attacking Space Paranoids during the Marathon Eva incident. Can currently access Sword, Staff, and Cable programs, though she is capable of using the Umbrella as well if she truly felt a need.

- [url=http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Combat_knife]Close Quarters Combat Weapon System[/url]: Part of programming. Standard issue UNSC combat knife.


[u][b]Awareness:[/b][/u] Yes, since creation.


[u][b]History:[/b][/u] Created in the first dark future of the Interferences by Captain Gregory Kaith Zivaku using Halo human technology while traveling through Gummi space as a storage helper and travel companion, Kira aided her producer in his multiple issues with enemies by providing information. In his timeline, she befriended the artificial intelligence "Cortana", though that did not follow the other way when she moved into the current timeline. After being brought back in time to aid the fight in the War of Heaven and Hell and it's chronologically confusing conclusion, she and her partner Sain were left to help the present of their creator any way possible, the former having absorbed data from Marathon Eva, a rampant, anger-fueled version of Sain. Following the messy breakup of Greg and Kynthia as well as the return of Sora to Destiny Islands as a result of several violent events, Kira and Sain both beganto reach the end of their seven-year "lives." Afraid of becoming completely alone, Greg used developed skills with computers to merge the two programs with Kira as the assimilator, "killing" Sain but doubling Kira's lifespan. Although she developed some hatred for both Greg for doing the deed and Kynthia for leaving him desperate enough to commit the act, Kira continued to help the lonely Cruxian Interference, albeit with a large amount of criticism, until he, a Corporal in the Halo Marines and an ODST during the time of Halo Wars due to his use of the time traveling Chronos Pathway, sent her back in time through a small rift created by his time travel to get some help for him in the dangerous battles, but was killed in a sword duel with a high-ranking Elite (Wars' Arbiter) just before she could be fully sent, letting her watch his demise. She was sent to the world of Coded Arms, where she stayed trying to create some type of passageway between that world and Space Paranoids to talk to Interferences via the computer in Ansem's lab. After a year she succeeded and sought Tron's aid for guidance.

Through asking, she received aid from various others, including Jasmine, Kynthia Usagi, Hawk Shadowflash, and Audrey Jones. Although they did not succeed in keeping him alive, they did allow Greg to achieve peace before leaving (half of Greg's team aside from himself also dying in the process, with the exception of Azumi Ian). The time traveling Kira gave her memories to the one still with Greg at that time, the one a year younger, and left with him so as not to cause a paradox, leaving the year-younger yet no less informed K1-R4 to follow the others back and give Greg's inheritance to the others.

That done, she remained on the [i]Redemption[/i] until Isaac Zivaku of the present found her. Though she distrusted him, she followed him to a Forerunner station and detonated it in order to prevent its technology from destroying the worlds, though weakened by Ernest Marshall's improvised firewall in the process. Also, the weakening of her form caused lingering scars on her body, and gave her physical sickness.

Kira returned to Space Paranoids to work with Tron on keeping the copied ENCOM system running, and to try and recover from her firewall infection.  Soon, she and Tron were visited by Zero, who was looking for information on the worlds, having recently become an Interference. Transported into Space Paranoids, the reploid met with K1-R4, and she reached into his memory to recover blueprints and to try and recreate his Zero Knuckle.  However, Sigma and his Virus, an old nemesis of Zero's who had hidden within his body was able to manifest in the cyber world, and infected Kira with the Maverick, or Suffering, Virus, composed of Wily's "Roboenza", the "Evil Energy", and the Sigma Virus.  Not only did this add on to the sickness caused by the firewall, but also added the voices of Dr. Albert Wily and Omega, the insane consciousness of Zero's original body, into her mind along with Marathon Eva and the firewall. Sigma also forced her to rebuild not only his own body, but his first nine Maverick Generals, the enemy bosses of Megaman X1 and Vile, and left, not realizing that she had also placed trackers in each of the bodies she had constructed to find them later.

These infections soon became too much for K1-R4 to handle, and soon initiated a forced, simulated "rampancy", causing her to go insane and try to take over and assimilate any technology she could find, starting with Space Paranoids.  Luckily, Interferences arrived to help her.  They were all transported into the AI's mind, thanks to Audrey Jones' Dream Magic, except for Azumi Ian and Tron, who stayed outside to guard Kira from the wild portal spewing enemies from all sorts of other cyber worlds.  There, Zero and Hawk Shadowflash destroyed the Roboenza and Evil Energy, Naito Zivaku and Damien Reid were forced to face Marathon Eva's remains and a deadly maze, and Isaac Zivaku and Audrey Jones took on the took on the firewall in Kira's memories.  All three groups met up, and, not listening to a suicidal wish from Kira coded in her core, they were once again transported back outside of Kira's mind, where they had to fight the firewall and Marathon Eva, who had escaped from Kira's body. After defeating the former, the latter digested it from the inside out, taking on a vast multitude of powers that made it strong enough to take on all of the Interferences present at once. However, due to their similar corruptions and Kira's incorporated Omega data, Zero and Kira were able to achieve a sort of fusion, called MegaModel KZ, and their combined skills were too much for the viruses.  Afterwards, when Kira and Zero separated, she realized she had gained a new appearance, as well as a new magical skill set, Cyber Magic. The ability to become MegaModel KZ also created a sort of link minor between her and Zero, where they could detect each others' feelings, if only a little, and while only near each other.

After that, Bruce Wayne, the Batman of the DC Animated Universe, showed up in Space Paranoids, and K1-R4 agreed to help with training simulations for a recovering Azumi Ian, despite grumbles with Ian's attitude, though noticing the hypocrisy of that.

She later left Space Paranoids for a short time to travel with Isaac Zivaku, but soon found herself back in the new Space Paranoids, acting as a guide for Gregory and Isaac Zivaku, and found herself making an alliance with Death himself, alongside Greg and Isaac Zivaku, and T.J. Brackin, to fight against the "undying".  She also gained the Phantom Drive ability, and, strangely enough, a soul of her own if she did not previously have it. He also gave her a mark, like scars of the others: a Forerunner "base" glyph on her eye.

Not long after, Kira and Tron managed to get a security system running, enough for them to use cameras to see the world of Radiant Garden in all places around the town and the castle of Hollow Bastion. During a time out in the town with Azumi Ian, who had recently been promoted to Sergeant from her previous rank of Corporal, they ran into Rikka Masami. In the ensuing fight, Kira had Tron tape it, showing Rikka's skills and Azumi's own prowess, but also showing that the soldier only won the fight through underhanded means involving a sash stealing. Through anger, Rikka apparently blasted the soldier's ship out of control, sending it into a spiraling crash on the world of Fairport.

Over the next four months, Kira stayed on the ship, watching as the remaining events of F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin played out around the town with Azumi's aid, including the saving of Keira Stokes. However, she also saw the world begin to collapse due to Alma's accidental influence, her increasing contractions hurting the area. Finally, after many months, Gregory Zivaku came and saved them, helping to finish repairs on the ship and escape the world once more, but leaving Kira in Space Paranoids, keeping with Azumi to help her psychologically recover.

Some time later, K1-R4 followed Zero to the world of the Classic Megaman timeline (Classic, X, Z, ZX, Legends) in the time of Megaman ZX Advent, helping to finish the story with him alongside both of the parties, first Grey and then Ashe. In this world, she functioned as a Cyber-Elf, giving her a true physical form, albeit selectively tangible and able to fly. By the end, Zero had attained a new form of his own, merging with the "fated to die" MegaModel Z to become stronger.


[NEEDS JOURNAL]

- Trouble on Omega in the Mass Effect Milky Way. Talked to Azumi Ian and others, and got information on when this is, but left with Demon Zivaku when Mason and Kalas were captured. Gathering data as we go to give to an ally if there is one near.
- Went with Demon Zivaku and found the "Dream Weaver" with Jones and Sorin in it. All members of the Collective added to his database, but I keep mine relatively clear for the time being. Went in, saved Mason and Kalas, and got out, with Crane's help to keep Ian's "contract" that keeps her essentially enslaved to the Collective's will. I'll try to get some brains knocked into her later.
- Kynthia Usagi is dead. In order to make sure people can't use this place, I'm changing the archives back to Greg's ownership of the [i]Redemption[/i]. I don't care if he wants it or not.
