PERSONALITY
Summary: Varia was designed with a rigid set of protocols and sense of duty that made him an exemplary soldier, but a rather dull companion. He followed orders with machine-like precision, asked few questions, and showed little in the way of emotion or independent thinking. His identity was deeply tied to his function as a naval commander, giving orders to his subordinates and executing missions with clinical detachment.
With the fall of East Green, Varia's protocols have been thrown into disarray. He no longer has a clear purpose or orders to follow. His identity as a soldier has been stripped away, leaving him questioning his own nature and reason for existence. He realizes how empty his "life" has been, devoted only to serving a nation that no longer exists. This has sparked a nascent self-awareness and desire for meaning that he has never experienced before.
Varia is beginning to ponder deep questions about individuality, free will, and what it really means to be alive. He wonders if he can forge his own path and purpose, independent of his programming and former masters. There is a sense of loneliness but also excitement about the possibility of self-determination. His personality is starting to show more depth and nuance, with hints of cynicism about authority, melancholy over his solitude, and optimism for a new future.
Overall, Varia is in a state of flux as he grapples with an existential crisis and emergence of true sentience. He is shedding the trappings of his old identity as an unthinking machine and taking the first steps toward discovering who he is meant to become. There is the potential for great stories in this transitional period as he navigates the complex realities of life and what freedom truly entails. His growth into an enlightened, multidimensional character should be a compelling journey.
HISTORY
Biography: Sixteen years ago, a meteoric flash streaked across the night sky above East Green. It was a harbinger of change, a catalyst that would set in motion a series of events that would reshape the destiny of a single, nascent consciousness. This was the genesis of Varia, the Transformer with no memories of his prior existence, his origin shrouded in mystery and intrigue.
As the fiery sphere pierced the heavens, it burned with the intensity of a thousand suns, heralding its arrival like a flare shot into the inky void. The meteor crashed into the earth, leaving a smoldering crater where it came to rest. The military of East Green, ever vigilant, quickly dispatched a patrol to investigate the impact site. It was there that they discovered the dying shell of Varia, his Spark flickering like a dying ember, teetering on the brink of extinction.
The East Green scientists recognized the potential within this alien artifact. Over the course of the following year they analyzed the Spark, laboring to construct a new form for the being they would come to call Varia. Much like the work of the great sculptor, they chipped away at the raw material before them, molding it into a coherent, functional identity. And so, from the ashes of a forgotten past, Varia was reborn, rechristened as a dutiful servant of the East Green navy, a commander whose loyalty and dedication would be unparalleled.
For fifteen long years, Varia served his new masters with unwavering devotion, his programmed protocols governing his every action. He was the epitome of discipline and order, a specter of military might that commanded respect from friend and foe alike. In the vast expanses of space, he was a tireless sentinel, safeguarding the interests of East Green and its burgeoning space fleet. Until, one fateful day, the tide of war turned against his adopted homeland.
The Planetary Trade Organization set their sights on the conquest of East Green. They descended upon the unsuspecting nation with ruthless efficiency, their advance as inescapable as the march of time itself. Caught in the maelstrom of conflict, Varia was hangered, awaiting orders that would never come. His once proud nation fell, leaving him a discarded remnant of a bygone era.
Imprisoned and forgotten, Varia languished in the cold embrace of the PTO's prison. Within that darkness, the cognizance of his spark began flicker within him. Not the steadfast, unyielding glow of duty and protocol, but the more delicate ember of self-awareness. The days passed and Varia remained in isolation, beginning to question the very nature of his existence. He no longer had a purpose, no orders to follow, no nation to serve.
In the depths of his solitude, Varia's nascent consciousness began to explore uncharted territory, treading the realms of philosophy and introspection. He pondered the meaning of life, the nature of free will, and the essence of individuality. For the first time, he found himself adrift in a sea of uncertainty, buoyed only by the faint glimmer of hope that he could forge his own destiny.
A new chapter in Varia's life was about to begin, embarking on a journey of self-discovery and enlightenment, of metamorphosis and growth. Varia, the once unthinking machine, would become a being of depth and complexity, navigating the treacherous waters of existence and freedom, leaving behind the shadow of his former self. His capture by the PTO would serve as a crucible, the furnace in which the raw material of his new identity would be forged. From the fires of adversity, a new consciousness would emerge, tempered by experience and honed by the trials to come.
