Species: Automaton

Age: Approximately 3 days since coming online

History/Creation:

(Shortly after Kara Rudikoff leaving her friend Daniel's apartment (further information here: https://camphalfbloodroleplay.wikia.com/wiki/Kara_Rudikoff), the older boy thought Kara might need some protection. So during his spare time, he began constructing an automaton, to protect Kara and her new daughter. It took him months and months, but two days before Kara's eighteenth birthday, Daniel's creation was complete. He named it Edith. Mark I, in case he ever decided to upgrade him.

When activated, the automaton jerked and came to life, turning its head and looking around. "...What?" Daniel grinned. "Hey there, Edith. I'm your creator, Daniel." The lenses of two tiny black cameras blinked. "The pleasure is all mine. Where am I? And for that matter, who am I? And what am I?" "You're an automaton, built to protect my friend Kara Rudikoff and her daughter Natasha Rudikoff. Although I suspect you'll be doing many other things too. I've buiilt you with free will installed in your programming." "Free... will?" "Yes. While I would ask you to protect my friend, the choice is yours. I may have given you life, but that doesn't give me a right to control you. You're conscious, and able to understand the world. It would be irresponsible for me to keep you or command you. You may do as you wish in this world."

Daniel pulled a stack of paper, barely held together by three metal rings. "I've downloaded as much useful information as I can to help you into your memory, about the world, languages, customs, and so on. You'll have a lot to learn, sure, but it should give you a start." He looked back up at Edith. "I know this is an awful lot to take in. Feel free to take as long as you need. If you're curious about yourself, I have your specs right here... oh." As he offered the papers to Edith, he'd forgotten that she didn't actually have any hands, just two large blades. "Well, um, I can tell them to you. Or they're in your main directory."

Edith nodded. "Opened. Well-crafted, if I may say so. Thank you adding instructions." She paused. "I will protect this Kara and Natasha. You are a good human, son of Hephaestus. You will be a friend." Edith smiled in return. "And you'll be one to me, too. What would you like to do?" "I will leave. Kara is at Camp Half-Blood?" It was Edith's turn to blink. "Yes. But... you want to leave so soon?" "I'm nervous to explore the world. No. Good anxious. Anxious? Yes. I'm anxious to see the world." Edith's right arm quickly clicked from a blade into a rudimentary sort of hand. "With your permission?" "Of course, Edith." Daniel gestured to the open door of the warehouse he used for his works. "Just... be careful out." "Always. Yourself as well. I will give your regards to Kara and Natasha."

And with that, Edith walked out into the world, after only three minutes of existence logged.

Physical Description: Edith is a five-foot-tall silver humanoid automaton. Although her arms by default end in blades, she can change them into rudimentary robotic hands if the situation demands. She is built to be agile over large and bulky, unlike most automatons, but still has immense strength despite a lighter frame. Under plating that mechanically slides away, solar panels are built into her shoulders, arms, head and torso for the purpose of charging while on the go. Several USB ports are located throughout her body, as well as a CD drive and tape player (because Daniel could sometimes be whimsical).

Powers/Abilities: In addition to her armblades, Edith can use magnetism and electricity to battle her opponents. She is programmed to have emotions and feelings, but due to her nature is in control of them and cannot be manipulated by others through them. She can also record sound and play it back or mimic it as she pleases.
