Power Suit Schemes

[10:16] Entering the structure once more, the scientist together with his first 3-A would arrive in Lifebringer's room.. Place in which, going to a corner, the man falls into an armchair! While drones brought him some materials.

Good.

That is, pen and paper - which would be used for writing and drawning.

"Honestly, Alpha, what do you see when you look at me - not as your creator, but as a living being." His voice echoed as he straightened himself pulling the table towards him.

Because he would need support to work on the schemes.

"And once you answer, I'll explain what I have in mind." He added before the solemn silence.
(Acantho)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[10:28] What tough question. Alpha's expressionless stare remains- The construct stands perfectly still, if not for the whirr of mechanisms shifting inside. "Question unclear. Entity Acantho has class Creator. Detachment impossible."

"Alpha recognizes Acantho's classes as.

Creator.

Artificer.

Human.

Magi."
(A.L.P.H.A.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[10:36] As the answer was offered, the scientist was already working on the sketch of his drawing - an enormous figure, much larger than a human was made.. However, not as large as most animunculi.

"No, no.. What I say is, look at me.. I'm a human, a mortal." The being said at the beginning, but of course he would add more words to his speech that would make everything more understandable - "I'm a fragile biological creature, eventually this body will fail me - this one will stop sustaining the motor skills necessary for a simple thing.

Defense." His voice was emitted, the drawing continued.. As needed.

The being was now doing something more understandable, which appeared to be a golem, but one that could be openly and clearly - piloted by the way those schematics were created! As, there were details transcribed around it that explained this fact.

Good.

"As much as I have you and the others on my side, eventually I might end up getting myself into an unexpected conflict in which – will I need to defend myself and my body? Well, this had always been something..

Pathetic.

So, I want to.. Create something that will supply that." A few nods from him followed in the direction of 3-A, "For while my body isn't capable of much, I create things that can supply that - empower it further.

Whether with the creation of Graviton for the offense or... Now, a Power Suit for my defense." And so he concluded his speech, to focus on the work at hand.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[10:47] Alpha does not move. It does not shift; It does not change. In truth, that is the core of their difference. Acantho was made of flesh, a living, changing being - Warm, if left to his own devices, until the moment that he died.

Alpha and every other animunculi is extremely different. They're made of unchanging, cold, hard metal.

"Metal is perfection."

Spoken through the synthesizer, almost a mantra on its own capacity. The synthesizer raises once again.

"Unit Alpha would like to make a suggestion. Possible improvement detected."

"If flesh is weak and decays, an outer suit would not remedy that, or prevent further decay. Perhaps bring it into an effective halt, if somehow embalming fluids or something equivalent could bathe the Creator's body."

"The weight of the suit would meant that it needs to be powered. Instead of using kinetic energy to raise appendages, it should be more efficient to create a neural interface."

"I could assist with it. Interpreting mortal thoughts could be fruitful to add to the database."

"But an alternate plan could be done." So, Alpha takes slow- But hardened steps on the wooden floor. Eventually, a single finger points towards the hatch for entry and removal. "There is no need for an intermediate."

"Replacing flesh with metal is a better option, even if done slowly."
(A.L.P.H.A.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[11:00] The pen at last stopped, this being tapped repeatedly against the glass of the table on which he was working - while the pair of blue hues was turned towards his creation. A weak smile was exposed through all the scientist's beard.

Which, would start talking now.

"Obviously this is just a temporary solution, the best would be to temporarily put my body in stasis - maybe even transfer my consciousness could prove to better.

In this case." He held up that pen, which he used with the lower tip to tap three times on the side of his head, "The brain could be placed in a fluid that would keep it in stasis for indefinite time, but still guaranteeing consciousness.

And with the right connections, granting control over a metallic body - however, that can be left for another moment. For now, let's focus on this project." So he would return to work.

Which in terms of design was almost done! Quite, so much so that now he would offer the explanations.

"This Power Suit will be made of countless materials, you can see the list there." In this a drone delivered a list of resources, it was brought to the automaton to analyze, "We will make the exoskeleton from Mythril, lining this with leather and augury for an inner protective layer and coating.

While externally there will be layers made of tyrium and nyeshk, for heightened protection and magical nullification - thus, defending the user from most magical attacks.

However, we will also apply a Primsthium 'liquid coat' which should protect against the greatest elemental attacks." Therefore, defense would not be lacking for something like this - "However, we will also make an advanced runic system, one that will create a consciousness for armor - only allowing me or who is allowed to use this.

The material for this will be Orichalcum and Blue Mercury." He added, pointing in the direction of the runic system he had transcribed upon the schemes.

He worked fast.

"Finally, we will make a special core out of eternite, one powered by fire crystals given its potency - which will have a gravitational runic system due to my manipulation of it!

Thus, giving more lightness to the equipment." Concluding then, he looked in the direction of the animunculi, waiting for its reaction.

[11:14] Enzo enters the room, cloak flowing behind him as the sweet smell of what appears to be dried crimson reed fills the air. He moves up, leaning against the large form of Delta and looks towards the professor.

"What I miss Doc?"
(EN-0 Omicron)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[11:32] A temporary solution. The brain could be placed somewhere else- "Very well. Attention focusing. Other schematics removed from consciousness." Probably stored somewhere else for him to use later; To show at a later date. "My databases are not up-to-date with artificery, Creator Acantho."

"We cannot assist with your work on that end. The materials, and how they will link together; Your choice is for the best, Director." Experience was something that the synthetic could factor in, even if it was mostly in discrete manners. One was either experience or inexperienced. Little else could be said of that.

But of course, there was something where Alpha could provide some help. "Perhaps we could assist with transferring the very same ligaments which make for ourselves. The adaptive appendages which we use could be easily removed and installed upon one such construct."

"Materials can be easily acquired." All he needed was patience. "Do we have an ETA for the beginning and conclusion?"
(A.L.P.H.A.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[11:46] "You might be able to help, when the time comes - until then don't worry." He had time.. Certainly, he still wasn't as old as he looked.

As much as his body had degraded too much over the last few years.

"Anyway, this sounds useful and will certainly help - anyway, yes, we already have an action plan in place for many steps in this project.

Don't worry, it is everything in my head." At this now the attention left Alpha and went to Delta who arrived, "Ah, Delta.. Do you need something?" He asked the golem, then fell silent.
