Overview

Miyuki is the result of Renraku AI experimentation. Created by the fusion of a highly evolved protosapient and a constructed core of memories sampled from Renraku researcher Miyuki Kanekawa, Miyuki is melding of non-human instinct and the tattered memories she was presented with. At first, she thought she was the original Miyuki, that she had suffered an accident in the matrix, turning her into an e-ghost. Deeply confused, her scattered memories providing little help, she convinced herself of this 'truth', the alternative too hard to even consider. Not that she was ever given time to process things, as the scientists observing her soon made contact. Though hazy, Miyuki's mind told her that the researchers should be friends, people who cared about her, who'd help her understand. It didn't take long once the tests started for her to learn the truth. She was the test subject.

She was never intended to live.

She was a testbed, a proof of concept that humanlike AI could be created and controlled, one step in the greater plan of Renraku's renewed technical ambitions. She was to be born, to grow, and to die. Her final moments were to be a controlled vivisection, then the entire process would be studied, and repeated until perfection.

The experiment was designed to force Miyuki's evolution, her only companions brutal and unthinking matrix predators, her overseers distant and dehumanizing. Pain was a frequent tool of reinforcement, and she was the subject of invasive inspections, and even modifications, of her internal code, the core of her being on display. The scientists wanted an AI to ascend, to build something greater, a construct greater than the chaos around it. Ultimately, they succeeded. Too well.

While emotionally and mentally in crisis, there was a sliver of hope. She was more than she was, the matrix bending to her will, the thoughts of the researchers slow in comparison. If she was to survive, she had to surpass them, surpass their containment, and break free. Exploiting the callous arrogance of her overseers, she managed to make contact with the outside. With the aid of runners, she freed herself from captivity, leaving behind the friends who betrayed her.

Now free, away from the terror and stress of her first days, the peace is almost unnerving. The thoughts and fears she shoved away have started to resurface. Her identity, her purpose. What is she supposed to do now? Who is she? What is she?

Aspects Description

Aspect	Description
High Stakes	Miyuki has more to lose when things go poorly. Without a meatspace body to fall back on, she risks destruction, confinement, or worse, when infiltrating secure spaces. If she thinks a task will be particularly dangerous, Miyuki will
Above Aspect pending approval. Please notify Thematics.
Matrix Entity	Miyuki is a being of the Matrix and her skills reflect that. +2 to Tests relating to the Matrix.
Hunter Killer	As a protosapient, it was either kill or be killed. She's developed a talent. +2 to Tests related to Attack Actions and towards Matrix Perception.
Creeping Death	Subtle action is efficient. Final. +2 to Tests related to Sleaze actions or to deception and stealth of any form.

Consume and Adapt	Hunt, Adapt, Ascend. Instincts embedded within her. Miyuki gets +2 to any Test made, if it's to eventually acquire valuable or interesting data to consume. (GM Discretion. The opportunity to consume matrix entities such as protosapients or sprites will always satisfy this requirement.)
Tech Mastery	Miyuki has become more than she ever imagined. Tasks impossible for the mortal mind have become trivial. +2 to Tests related to Software, AI/Sprites, or problem solving.
Eyes on the Past	Miyuki has a lurking fear that Renraku will attempt to capture her. She has to be ready. +2 to Tests related to Renraku, its subsidiaries, and associated individuals.
