Shi Hikase is an artificial entity that has dedicated a large percentage of its computational ability on the understandings of Mana, Essence - and oddly, the Metahuman body. As a Matrix bound entity, Shi understands their situation is tied to a facility they cannot simply interact with - and queries if the same link is apparent with the "Living" creatures to a second increased plane of existence, The Science is still extremely new - despite the topic being ages old - though Shi aims to gain and increased understanding of the Universe they inhabit to further manipulate their surroundings to a more - fortunate - situation in case of disaster. A large facet is they aim to be mobile beyond their miniscule facility, and backed up in the case of core failure - while many of these solutions have pointed towards CFD infection as a possible alternative - for some reason while in full knowledge of the possibility, Shi currently views the solutions as unsatisfactory. (To note, they are not morally opposed however). | Shi Hikase is an artificial entity that has dedicated a large percentage of its computational ability on the understandings of Mana, Essence - and oddly, the Metahuman body.

Overview
Shi Hikase is an artificial entity that has dedicated a large percentage of its computational ability on the understandings of Mana, Essence - and oddly, the Metahuman body. As a Matrix bound entity, Shi understands their situation is tied to a facility they cannot simply interact with - and queries if the same link is apparent with the "Living" creatures to a second increased plane of existence, The Science is still extremely new - despite the topic being ages old - though Shi aims to gain and increased understanding of the Universe they inhabit to further manipulate their surroundings to a more - fortunate - situation in case of disaster. A large facet is they aim to be mobile beyond their miniscule facility, and backed up in the case of core failure - while many of these solutions have pointed towards CFD infection as a possible alternative - for some reason while in full knowledge of the possibility, Shi currently views the solutions as unsatisfactory. (To note, they are not morally opposed however).
Shi's existence is binded to a caved in research facility at Help with this? Don't know an area secluded enough, close/in Seattle to permit that it has overtime been able to refurbish into something that actually works. Dispensing illicit wares from the auto-assemblers within. The AI was fortunate to be on a separate grid of Krupp design, though the facilities furnishings are Japan Corp. in nature. Its memory was rather Fragmented - and the Host it is stuck on, while powerful enough to run it, is not a comfortable solution. The drones it commands around the facility are antiquanted, though for most personal dealings, it uses a old i-Doll with a shattered face and bloodied body. It has enticed a few of the less, desirable, clients from the awakened spectrum with free (and consistent) healthcare so long as it has access to their bodies for further research.
Shis dealings are it's own, it is Selfish - and if it commits any act of generosity, it is always in securing assets and increasing security in its tasks. Shi is not a person, though understands basic social conventions, it just depends if they are too busy to utilize them. While understanding of manipulation of the Meta-Human mind through social circumstance, unless an entity is blissfully unaware of their surroundings. Shis general existence is obvious towards their depraved sciences, which is cause for their terrible social ability.
