Hello! A few questions about Hirsu:
1. Is he a he? You at point use they/them
2. He misses the split on his doom, but has antennas. Can he still open his head, or he only uses the antennas?
3. What is Meatbag best at? I mean, if Hirsu too gets prime examples, human athletes or scientists are nothing short of notable feats, so... He could be usefull, not to mention he is possibly the most agile from the playlist, and most dexterous, I don't know if any other alien would have 5 fingers
4. Interesting he doesn't use the aliens smart, like, I mean, not even knowing their full potential, like read about them (he should know about Tidbit's gold, as Deka mentions Mars was known as the "popcorn planet",so with a bit exploring....
5. I was thinking; what could be the point of trix, with 10 random aliens? I mean, that wouldn't restore enought DNA/species, but could be used like Hirsu did... And I also got thinking, if Azmuth could change the playlist, why Hirsu can't? My question/ suggestion would be; these trices, like the prototype, should be connected to Primus. Thid way, Azmuth remotly can lock or unlock any transformations for any of them, so also could enable, not to be with like Ascalon and end up in the wrong hands....?
1. Hirsu is a he, I just alternate between he & they when talking abt him. He probably uses both sets of pronouns.
2. Hirsu can open the dome on his head but it doesn't split into multiple pieces. The antennae act sort of like extra conductors for electricity.
3. Hirsu mainly uses Meatbag for tasks that require more dexterity & stealth. Humans aren't the only species in the universe with no notable abilities, but they blend into crowds easily. He can hold his own against street-level threats like an unarmed criminal, but outside of that he's not a go-to for combat.
4. I thought it would be a fun contrast for an alien with such high intelligence to, ironically, not know a whole lot about his aliens. He'll probably learn the full extent of his transformations at some point, but he doesn't care much to research at the moment.
5. The omnitrixes in Hirsu's universe function in a similar way to how the reboot's Omnitrix works. All aliens are stored in regular playlists, but only 10 can be accessed easily. The 10 random aliens thing was so users could get a proper, unbiased feel for the rest of the universe. Anyone is able to change around their playlist using unlock & replacement codes, but Azmuth has specific commands to override the function if needed. Hirsu has tried to change his playlist at least once, but Azmuth eventually disabled his ability to do so. The Omnitrixes in this universe are also probably connected to Primus, like in the prime timeline.
Also to answer another ask you sent me, I've considered coming up with Hirsu's original playlist but I've never had much motivation to design them or think about them much beyond rough ideas. If I had to throw in some ideas, he'd have a lot of aliens meant to cause mischief (like Upchuck, Ditto or Buzzshock for example) along with a lot of physically strong ones (Humungousaur, Fasttrack, maybe Gravattack? although that might be going a little too far.) His original playlist would probably be as different as possible from his current one, just for contrast purposes.
