Species: Android
Height: 5'4
Pronouns: They/them
Sexuality: Pansexual
Created: May 2034
Deviated: October 31, 2035
Quick Notes:
• Michael had named Willow Angelica, often calling them his angel, they changed their name to Willow shortly after deviating
• They also hate angel's because of this, would not recommend using that as a pet name unless you want to upset them
• Because of how they deviated it is very hard for them to trust someone enough to repair them, if they do let someone repair them the circumstances are likely to be extreme
• Due to the amount of damage they've sustained, both self-inflicted and by others, their self healing program is barely functioning
• While they are still durable and can take a hit, they recover much slower than previously
• As of 2038 they live in the Junkyard, after the revolution pretty much any android there is dead. Willow see's the lack of life as a sign of safety, even if they are very lonely
• Although they're skittish, Willow is far too friendly for their own good. They can also be very gullible
• Willow doesn't quite grasp that stealing is wrong, only that stealing certain items are wrong. They don't steal to be malicious, they just assume it's ok if the item is either abundant or appears to be abandoned
• If told not to steal they are likely to take it as "Don't steal this particular item."
• They do not like being approached from the right as they can't see due to the missing eye
• The damage under their clothes is just as severe, if not more, than the damage to their face.
• While they don't want to be violent, there are situations where they'll feel there's no choice. They carry a switchblade for their own safety
• On the off chance that they kill someone, the memory files of the incident have and will corrupt for the sake of their own sanity. It's worth noting that they will continously try and fail to open the memory files as they badly want to know what happened.
• Will occasionally crack jokes, they're still learning humor and this tends to adapt to the people they hang around
• Will hide wherever they deem safe before going into stasis, usually in closes spaces at the junkyard
• Voicebox is severely damaged, causing their voice to sound distorted when they speak
• Created as a female android, has fully functional genitalia but they are non-binary
• Has never interfaced, isn't even sure what it is beyond android's holding hands and deactivating their skin programs
• They have no cooking program, but they were taught a small amount of recipes that their ex owner and his college aged daughter (Monica) wanted Willow to know
• They will sometimes try to avoid answering certain questions if they're uncomfortable
• Michael (ex owner) hade Willow's sense of touch made to be as close to human as possible. They feel chronic pain from their injuries
• They are highly susceptible to cold due to the open wounds allowing air exposure to their bio components. If their temperature drops too low they will be forced into stasis
• They also can't get too wet because of the exposed bio components. While water is unlikely to kill them it will certainly hurt them
Summary:
Willow is a custom made android created for their ex owner Michael with the intended purpose of being a fancy Halloween decoration. Before the Revolution he was well known for his increasingly horrofic Haunted Houses, gaining fame for his use of android's and how realistically their responses to stimuli, most notably fear, were.
To make everything more authentic feeling he would pay to have custom android's built to his liking, only giving them the program's he felt they'd need.
For Willow this means that they were built without the ability to scan, communicate through their mind, or use search functions to look things up. Michael intended for them to be entirely reliant on him. As a result they're as naïve as they are curious.
One perk they do have is their durability. Having become annoyed with how easily the previous android's shutdown during the deviation process, Michael had Willow built for durability. This is a huge reason Willow has yet to succumb to the damage they've sustained.
He also had them built with a feature that'd force them into an Emergency Stasis if they were to begin to self-destruct, after deviation this feature keeps them alive during hallucinatory episodes.
[Note that I forgot to draw their LED in one pic, they do have one]
Willow's Deviation:
From May 2034 to October 30, 2035 Willow lived with Michael, his college aged daughter Monica, and a few miscellaneous android's, blissfully ignorant as to what their intended purpose was. While weren't deviant, there were feelings of love. They had been led to believe that Michael cared for them as someone would a spouse. It's worth noting that he had installed Willow with sexual programs for his own perverted reasons, naturally Willow had gotten the wrong idea. Michael, however, was not about to correct them as he was well aware that the emotional whiplash would only aid in the deviation process. Which he saw more as damaged coding than actual sentience.
To cause Willow to deviate Michael had created several open wounds, burning the edges of the wounds to ensure the damage would heal as little as possible.
This was also to create as much pain as possible, as with each android Michael had continuously worked to make their sense of touch as strong as possible, both inside and out.
Once that was done he filled the wounds with rotten meat and maggots, locking them in a cage as a prop for the Haunted House.
He also installed metal wings to play up the angel aesthetic, these were ripped out when Willow met Kelli
Normally, early the next morning, Michael would put the android out of it's misery if it survived the night, but Monica, having begun to question if these reactions were really just broken coding, took pity on Willow and allowed them to escape.
After deviating Willow suffers from hallucinatory episodes where they believe the maggots are still inside of them. It is essentially bits of the memory replaying, overtime it began to spread much like a virus until they could see/feel the maggots on areas of their body that hadn't been harmed when they deviated.
During these episodes they attempt to dig the maggots out, usually with the switchblade they often carry, the episode will not end until they're forced into Emergency Stasis. During these episodes, if someone approaches them, Willow will likely perceive them as a threat or as Micheal himself. They are very likely to attack someone during this time.
