Screwllum

Name

Screwllum

Bodily Appearance

Screwllum is a rather tall, slender and professionally dressed robotic being. He is completely made out of metal and other non organic parts, but his mentality and sense of sentience is alike exactly to that of a normal human's. His body is made up of a tough dull grey metal that is either lighter or darker depending on where the eye lands; he does NOT have skin. Likewise, he doesn't seem to have any physical ears, or hair for that matter (but he's not exactly classified as bald either since he isn't supposed to have hair). Screwllum's body is rather well defined and made, with his parts all smoothly jointed and built so that his movements are as life like as possible. He has a slightly lighter section of metal at his face, which is between his forehead and it goes down to where his nose would be, before ending with a slight semicircle curve. Screwllum does NOT have a nose, and he does NOT seem to have a mouth either, but he can still speak. He has two circular shapes at his face like eyes, and his 'eye's are two bright LED circular sensors that he can see very well our of. He wears a golden monocle at his left eye; a golden elongated teardrop shaped golden 'bit' dangles from the bottom of his monocle. He wears a fedora style black hat which has a few copper cogs around the base of it as decoration. Screwllum overall looks bodily like an adult man. He's rather tall, slender but not overly thin, and almost human like completely had it not been for his obvious metal components. Although his mechanical body does provide him with a lot of benefits, and for example, his sight and sense of vision is extremely advanced due to the sensors in his eyes. He can see someone normally, like looking through a camera, but he can also choose to mentally zoom in on something or scan the area around him and see the world through thermal colours (so if he was to look at a cat for example, the cat would be in thermal colours and distinguishable from something cold or non living).

Clothing Appearance

Screwllum's attire consists of clothing fit for an aristocratic genius. He wears a patterned white shirt with an upturned decorative collar that is almost like ruffles, but much cleaner cut; over that he wears a brown vest tuxedo. At his neck, he wears a crimson red ruffle necktie that has its edges lined and embroidered with rich golden thread; at the center of his necktie (between the gap where his collarbones would be) he had a sible copper cog with a glowing amber core attached into the fabric. Over his base set of clothes, he wears a deep brown formal blazer that fits him perfectly without being too tight - the lower sides of his blazer are cut slightly so that the white layer underneath can show through. Similarly to the fabric that his shirt is made of, the sewn in white material at the side slits of his blazer are made to look like sharp ruffles. The chest of his blazer is adorned with copper cog designs embroidered into the 'suit'. Screwllum wears satin gloves over his hands; they're fairly soft to the touch too. On his back, he wears what seems to be a set of two fabrics attached to his shoulder blades, like a sort of cape. They're made to look similar to beetle wings, the fabric a dark brown on the outside and a deep emerald green on the inside. The tips of his 'cape wings' go down to about his knee length. Screwllum wears straight white trousers that fit him perfectly, and a dark green leather thigh strap at his right upper thigh. He wears white oxford style shoes with black soles and slightly raised heels.

Personality

Screwllum is honestly quite the gentleman; he's certainty the type to be considerate with anyone. Hes polite, calm, steady and definitely someone anyone can learn to trust with anything - he a reversed persona at that, but he doesn't exactly shy away either. Helpful, humble, honest and unintentionally charming, Screwllum is a silently confident and fairly independent individual who knows how to balance interactions with work. He's awfully loyal to those he grows to like, and he's quite compassionate despite being disciplined and versatile. Being a genius, he's incredibly intelligent and undoubtedly one of the smartest individuals anyone could ever meet. Obviously, he knows just about everything and anything, but he's particularly fond of insects and anything alike to them; he can easily form compliments and metaphors based on his favourite bug. Unfortunately, he's a little bit of a workaholic, but he also knows how to step away and make time for those he cares about if they request it; he's also really protective over what he cares about too, but it's in a healthy way. Although, no matter how much of a sophisticated, soft spoken gentleman he is most of the time, there are occasions where he can rub off as a little bit of a wolf in sheep's clothing. He can be a little bit impatient at times if something fails after uncountable times or if someone is being particularly difficult, but overall health can hold his nerves impeccably. Sometimes he can also grow to be a little bit jealous, although it's mostly just his systems trying to imitate real life sentience. The feeling of envy will probably only surface if Screwllum is getting frustrated over a partner or lover, but even then, he can hide it extremely well.

Introduction

Mechanical Aristocrat Screwllum, simply known as Screwllum, is member #76 of the Genius Society. He lives on, and is the ruler of, Planet Screwllum. Although he doesn't exactly spend most his time there; he can often be found wandering around the Heritage Space Station. Screwllum is a mechanical lifeform who led a resistance against Genius Society #27, Rubert I, after Rubert started a second war to destroy all organic lifeforms and caused the Interastral Peace Corporation to consider exterminating mechanical lifeforms altogether. Screwllum eventually won peace for mechanical lifeforms and an industrial revolution began on Planet Screwllum. Herta considers Screwllum's hacking skills to be the "best in the universe," with Silver Wolf as the first person to be on par with him. She also characterizes him as a "really good man, a gentleman with an exceptional mechanical mind" whom she has learned a lot from.

Background Information

At some point in the past, Screwllum was appointed by the Aeon of Erudition, Nous, to become the 76th member of the Genius Society. He actively opposed Rubert and to this day, still gives assignments to destroy mechanical constructs that follow Rubert's order to destroy all organic life forms. When Nous selected him to become a member of the Genius Society, the Interastral Peace Corporation designed a mechanical cuckoo clock as a gift to appease him. Some time ago, the Stellaron Hunters illegally gained access to Planet Screwllum and clashed with Screwllum himself. In another incident, Silver Wolf was able to crack Screwllum's code and proved her hacking skills were on par with his, although he eventually managed to defeat her. Nonetheless, this caught Elio's attention. Screwllum has been working with fellow Genius Society members Herta, Ruan Mei, and Stephen Lloyd on creating the Simulated Universe, a simulation of the entire universe meant to discover more about the Aeons. Screwllum is responsible for writing the underlying logic and algorithm for the false galaxy. The Simulated Universe's intellectual property rights are jointly owned by Screwllum, Herta, and Ruan Mei.

Simulated Universe

A wondrous machine sits in the space station's owner, Herta's, room. A device designed and built by Herta and her work partners. A device capable of creating a virtual world from mere code. Simulated Universe is a rogue-like game digital simulation that turns a living or real thing into code and puts it into a realistic alternative world that's completely computerized. The gameplay revolves around collecting upgrades, known as Blessings to enhance the team's power and completing stages containing progressively more difficult enemies; learning about the Aeons and encountering them through luck. In Simulated Universe, there are 9 worlds that have to be beaten in order. Each world has multiple difficulty levels that unlock as the player increases their Trailblaze Level. Aeons in the Simulated Universe are simulations of known Aeons created in hopes of better understanding what they are and how they work. The entirety of the Simulated Universe is like a game that you can actually go into and play / be a part of, but of course there are still risks. Because of this, there are several safe 'levels' where someone can rest at if injured somewhere throughout the others.

Setting

The setting is that of the Herta Space Station, a sci-fi style setting. It's advanced and full of wonderful and less wonderful research and all sorts of dangerous and less dangerous things. Herta Space Station is a space station founded by Herta, member #83 of the Genius Society. Researchers from different planets comes to work here as a researcher and most of them are faithful followers of Herta. Qualifying for a researcher role in the Herta Space Station is a hard process and is a cherished goal of the scientific community. The Master Control Zone can be detached from the station, capable of traversing the Cosmos on its own. It serves as the brain of operations when attached to the main body of the space station. On both sides of the master control zone and at its entrance is a huge wall consisting of numerous screens for surveillance. This system offers visuals on everything happening on the parameter of the space station with no blind spot. This is also where Herta's Office is, and this is where the entrance to the Simulated Universe is. To enter the Simulated Universe, one has to interact with the control panel at the back middle of the room. The Base Zone is the core section between the two-stage structure separating the starship and the space station. It is the section where researchers partake in their primary daily activities. The reception center is located in the base zone, at the back of the space elevator. It is the first room to greet the station's visitors. The Supply Zone is the logistics hub of the space station. It has all manner of resources stored within its confines, supervises an energy core, and its equipped with a fully established railway platform. It stands as an essential junction for operations and maintenance aboard the space station. If things ever got out of hand and the master control zone was doomed to be destroyed, researchers would take the evacuation route and rush towards the supply zone.

Gender / Pronouns

Male + Male Screwllumite + Male Robotic Being + Man + He + Him + His

Height

Screwllum is roughly 6'2 feet tall, so quite tall for a human like being. He's got a slender built that makes him look fairly light, but he is actually quite heavy because of what his body is made out of. On the plus side, he can monitor his body temperature, so he can warm himself up or cool himself down to his preference rapidly.

Age

Screwllum's age is unknown. He could be several thousands of years old, but no one really knows how old he is, but it doesn't really matter since he doesn't age or tire mentally with the years, merely only getting smarter and becoming more human like in his responses and actions.
