Name: Shoren-Q00972 (Shoren)
Age: appears to be about 25 standard years? But he has been on so many planets that who knows, honestly.
Physical description: a mostly humanoid cyborg (though he can pop out a few additional arms (in both the appendage and weapons senses) when necessary. Jaw can unhinge to swallow objects of up to 6 inches in diameter, including, at several points, small ship parts, lockpicks, tools, etc. Modifiable height due to a double joint in the leg, but prefers to stay at the average eye level of the beings he is interacting with because otherwise Awkward. Mechanical parts are red by default, but can change color as necessary. Consumes a high amount of energy on somewhat malfunctioning batteries, so he either needs to eat an enormous amount of food or recharge daily in order to function at full capacity.
Background: originally from the planet E80C0C, was kidnapped and “harvested” into becoming a cyborg for a security supply company, and has been hired out as security detail for a wide variety of dignitaries, celebrities, meme gods, and other persons of high importance— most recently, to Golgol Inc., which turned out to be more of an undercover assassin-type operation that coerces its employees to stay forever and keep their mouths shut about it (basically, if you leave you become unemployable anywhere else). During his last op, he disobeyed a command to fire on civilians from his home nation, and has since been on the run from the various planetary governments and corporations involved, including Golgol itself. (His battery was damaged during this last altercation, and he hasn’t been able to get a replacement.)
Personality: extremely awkward around humans having Emotions; non-confrontational except when someone he cares about is being attacked, in which case will Destroy Everything to protect them and then refuse to admit that their distress was the reason for his doing so
Why he wants the supercomputer: to hack into the harvest systems and free his people for good (he’s the kind of cyborg his colleagues would have laughed at for having delusions of grandeur, but he’s on the run anyway so might as well…?)
Misc: is easily distracted by cute animals-- i.e. to a mission-endangering degree. Terran Corgis are a particular area of weakness, and he passes recharging time by watching ancient cat videos. Doesn’t really want to kill anyone.
