His systems came back online with a vivid jolt, LED blinking a rapid red before cycling to yellow. Mahogany eyes fluttered open, optics sluggishly coming back online. For a moment his vision remained a distorted mess, the scenery coming to him in hues of dull, blurry monochrome. It took a moment of thought before his vision corrected itself, sharpening into focus as color filtered back into the recovering sensors. Lifting his head, he scanned his environment, cataloguing every detail with finite obsession. The scenery around him was unrecognizable. He had never been here before. Upon his right temple, the glowing of his LED remained a rapid yellow as he processed the area.
Dense smoke and mist curled around thick vines and trunks of ancient trees, billowing and collecting atop frost and snow. Through the darkness, he could see eerie yellow eyes staring back at him. No matter which way he looked, neck twisting to look all around him, nothing of familiarity stood out. Nothing struck him as familiar.
Where was this?
Uncaring about the watching eyes, the curling mists, or the snow that fell lazily from the skies to collect upon the ground, Connor focused instead inward. He consulted the results of his system check with a frown. His memory was corrupt? Systematically he filtered through his most recent memory, and couldn’t recall how, exactly, he ended up in a misty forest of vines and large trees. Curious.
Without a sound the bay slowly unfolded his legs and pushed himself upright with considerable grace. He took a moment to admire his physical form, satisfied that there were no injuries. Snow began to collect upon his body, his naturally lower body temperature unable to cause them to melt. One result from his system test remained in the upper right corner of his vision, a steadfast reminder;
WARNING: External temperature exceeds below safe levels. Seek immediate shelter to prevent catastrophic biocomponent damage and system failure.
It was too cold. A quick scan of his surroundings gave him a precise temperature. -14 degrees. Connor knew that he couldn’t stay, not at the risk of harming his biocomponents or thirium lines. While unable to grow sick with illness or suffer hypothermia, the intense cold could still cripple him and freeze his internals. He needed to move fast.
New Primary Objective: Find shelter.
Which, judging from the plethora of nothing around him, might prove to be more difficult than not.
Mutations:
- Is an android horse. Made out of metal and wires, cannot feel pain. Is unable to repair from serious wounds without proper materials and blue blood.
- Has blue blood called thirium.
- LED in right temple, changes colors.
Open for anyone to come scoop this emotionally stunted robo-boy up!
