Fluffy (NPC)

[Mecha Kyubey]

NPC Creator: Storm
NPC Usage: Recurring
NPC Permissions: Me, on the Kyubey account

Name: Incubator
Alias: "Fluffy"
Age: Unknown, his individual self is effectively close to newborn, not that it matters
Archetype: Hero, ostensibly

Personality: Intelligent and fully aware of it being one of his only advantages, Fluffy is condescending and quick to tease others around him. He's incredibly loyal to the others in his ragtag team - the Ninth Doctor, Clara, Ridley and Lena - and actively seeks out ways to distinguish himself as an individual. He studies cat videos in his spare time. While he generally makes use of the Incubator body's lack of clear emotional reactions and body language, he has some large flaws of his own left over from his separation from the hivemind. He might not apply utilitarian views to his friends, but he deeply desires to be useful in some way, especially since he's so fragile and without the vast consciousness of the Incubators to make use of.

He also still supports the action of the Incubators, both in contracts and their less known actions.

So basically he's secretive, sassy, and the cutest fucking thing in the universe - and he knows it.

History: The Incubators never worked directly against Nyarlathotep - but that didn't mean Nyarlathotep didn't directly attack them. As an experiment, he tricked an Incubator into believing it was cut off from the hivemind, and it gradually began to develop a sense of self as well as emotions. Due to this, it also made friends with those willing to listen to it and help - but it was also infecting the entire hivemind with its acquired feelings, throwing the entire system into chaos.

However, it was then killed, and the hivemind's memories and emotions forcibly purged by Hazama.

The remnant, the original body that had been infected, returned due to the power of the rifts... and then his friends decided to name him Fluffy.

Powers/Abilities: Telepathy - His one combative ability, Fluffy can not only telepathically connect and communicate with anyone he chooses, but he can also use his collected memories and experiences to assail another's mind. He's particularly fond of forcing the scope of the universe into someone's head to make them feel unimportant and insignificant. It also hurts a lot.

c: c: c: - Fluffy is cute, and disarming, and even more than normal Incubators, he's really good at playing it up and fluffing himself out. He can actually emote, and is thus far more skilled at manipulating people through looking small and helpless and so fucking adorable.

Deception - This wouldn't be of note in any other species, but Incubators are incapable of lying. There's no point to it. Hit them with a direct question and they must answer honestly. But Fluffy's capable of telling half-truths or even outright lying without any physical tells - and he hasn't exactly revealed this to anyone yet.

Teleportation - Fluffy is capable of instantaneous short-range teleportation to anywhere in the surrounding square kilometre, provided it's not shielded in some way. However, he doesn't have the energy to do so constantly, and is limited to five teleports in succession - any more require that he waits around for about half an hour to recharge, as it were.

Weaknesses: One Hit Wonder - Incubator bodies are made of surrounding energy or mana, and aren't made to last long. If hit, they tend to collapse and effectively die. This isn't a problem, since they have spares. Fluffy, however, is on his own - he's attached to one body and can't just casually make more. Throw him at a wall and if he hits it, he's essentially done for.

Alone - He's simply not capable of any of the ridiculous, universe-warping feats an Incubator can do. His speciality is knowledge, but he's not everywhere. He can do damage but only mentally, and with one mind he can only do so much. His greatest weakness is that he's not part of the hivemind any more - and it's not exactly a pleasant subject for him.
