Orbital Strike VR - Indie Sci-fi videogame
Caitlin Rowe for The Pacifist, Unreliable
Lines: 80, $400 budget.
Gender: Female
Background: A rare AI carrier controller. They are alone, without their human pair. Their memory is spotty, systems and module libraries are gone in what appears to be an abortive decommissioning. While they may appear confused and oblivious to situations unfolding around them, they genuinely want to help in any way they can. Without their human pair, they seem to have forgotten their personality but as they interact with the Pilot and the Sophron throughout the campaign, they will regularly switch between different personality tones as they try them out.
[Bubbly and friendly] “An Unreliable Pacifist! Operating as Strategic Reserve Asset, deployed to deep-sleep overwatch for the…[confused pause]...Epsilon Indi system!”
After being introduced to the pilot
[Cold, analytical] “Pilot, we've retrieved the necessary resources for corvette production that The Sophron specified. Please return.”
[Ecstatic, slightly insane] “Crucibles...pilot encryption. Last-one-standing protocols. So many convenient vulnerabilities.”
