CHARACTER LORE

An Unbound Potential
PRISM's Awakening

The Primogenitors’ S.A.P.O.E. (Secret Arcai Protogen Overdose Experiment) was a Rogue faction project aimed at creating elite Protogen units by saturating them with dangerously high levels of microcrystalline ‘Arcaites’, preparing them for survival in extreme mission conditions. Yet, the experiment’s success rate was only five percent. Among the rare survivors was Unit 508, a prototype that displayed unusual resilience against Arcai-induced instabilities. Eager to understand and replicate this stability, the Primogenitors prepared for 508’s immediate transfer to a secure facility.During transport, the Rogue faction convoy carrying Unit 508 was caught in a coordinated attack by Nehixim forces, part of the ongoing conflict targeting Syantika bases. The vessel was struck by a massive explosion from the moon E1, directed at the convoy in low orbit, devastating the ships. Miraculously, Unit 508’s containment pod was ejected during the explosion and survived, adrift in space with its systems frozen in hibernation mode for a significant time.Eventually, Syantika scavengers found the pod orbiting Esmire 4 and transported it to their base on E1. Recognizing its potential, a Syantika scientist carefully dismantled the Rogue PROJECT ARC (Artificial Remote Control) protocols embedded within 508, restoring full autonomy. Upon awakening, 508, now self-aware with memories intact, provided the Syantika faction with critical intelligence on S.A.P.O.E., detailing Arcai experimentation methods and offering technology that could advance Syantika’s cause. Due to the prismatic Arcai particles that shimmered from his vents when energy levels dropped, Syantika members affectionately nicknamed him "PRISM."
ㅤ
ㅤ

PRISM’s unique abilities distinguished him. He housed a sophisticated E.C.A.C. (Extremely Compressed Arcai Capsule), a high-capacity Arcai storage system that powered his Technopath and Healing practices and manifestations, as well as his vital functions. Through Technopathy, PRISM could channel Arcai energy into his weapons, creating devastating overcharged attacks that intensified his combat strength. However, these attacks drains his E.C.A.C. reserves with each use, requiring careful management to avoid depleting his energy reserves mid-battle. PRISM’s Healing ability allowed him to transfer Arcai energy into repairs, fortifying armor, restoring damaged equipment, and treating wounds. In critical situations, he could channel his Arcai reserves into a rapid self-repair mechanism, sacrificing a full E.C.A.C. battery to restore functionality, though this left him drained and vulnerable until he recharged or swapped batteries. Given the high energy demands of these abilities, backup E.C.A.C. batteries and rations were essential for sustained operations, making each resource vital to his extended missions.As a Rare Protogen, PRISM was endowed with Complex Nanite functionality, which stabilized the Arcai running through his augmentations, allowing him to function even under high-energy outputs. This feature enabled him to control his energy output precisely, avoiding destabilizing surges. Additionally, his three sets of ears gave him enhanced sensory perception, allowing him to detect sounds and vibrations with three times the acuity of typical Protogens. This heightened awareness enabled him to anticipate threats and dodge attacks with remarkable precision, making him a vital asset in unpredictable mission environments.His Arcai manifestations followed the principles of Control and Bandwidth, essential techniques for harnessing his energy output. Control tempered his overcharges, enabling powerful yet precise attacks, while Bandwidth regulated his energy flow to prevent sudden surges and allowed for powerful bursts of Arcai energy. His batteries generally sustained his power, and only in rare, high-intensity situations did he need replacements. Together with his E.C.A.C., these principles allowed PRISM to channel and overload his Arcai, unlocking unparalleled power.

PRISM’s versatility extended to piloting, where he trained as an Orbital Scout Pilot with the OS-02 (Orbital Scout-02), a reconnaissance vessel requiring an Arcai-powered link. His Technopathy enhanced the OS-02’s agility, scanning range, and targeting systems, making him invaluable in gathering intelligence and locating resources vital to Syantika’s resistance against the Nehixim.Despite his capabilities, PRISM remained mindful of the risks involved in his work. Overextending his Arcai reserves could induce Arcosis, a dangerous state of Arcai depletion that would leave him defenseless. This vulnerability pushed him to carefully manage his energy reserves, enabling him to function at peak capacity even under high demands.With each mission, PRISM’s reputation in Syantika grew as he proved his resilience, precision, and commitment to improvement. Every encounter contributed to his awakening to his full potential, allowing him to refine his abilities further. Yet he couldn’t ignore the odd pieces of intelligence suggesting that PROJECT ARC had subjected other Protogens to similar control protocols. As he continues his journey toward autonomy and mastery, PRISM sees his powers not merely as weapons but as tools for liberation. Pushing his limits in pursuit of Syantika's goals of freedom, harmony, and unity, he is dedicated to a future where all Protogens can define their own destinies.ㅤ

PRISM's Personal Log: Entry 1

Location: Moon E1 S.O.D. 09 ( Space Orbit Dockyard 09)It’s been some time since the Syantika revived me. I’m grateful for their guidance, and though I’m still coping with the trials of my past, I’m learning and growing. The Primogenitors’ experiments on me are a curse, but also a strange gift, forcing me to see beyond what I was made for. I can’t help but wish they had seen us as more than just tools for their experiments.This conflict has to end, one way or another, and I’m determined to help make it right. For now, I’ll continue my duties and keep learning. I truly believe that I am more than just a weapon, more than what I was built for.End Log.ㅤ

Pushing the Limit

[SETTING: Inside the Syantika lab, where monitors flicker with complex data streams. The hum of machinery fills the room as a Syantika scientist reviews PRISM’s recent performance stats.]SYANTIKA SCIENTIST: adjusting data on a screen, eyebrows raised
"PRISM, your energy readings spiked during the last encounter. What exactly did you do out there?"PRISM: shrugs, but there's a faint glow pulsing along his frame, his voice low and almost reflective
"Just pushed the weapon’s limits. It needed a bit more... persuasion."SYANTIKA SCIENTIST: smirking slightly, a hint of concern in their voice
"You always do push the limits. But be careful. Those weapons weren’t designed for that kind of load."PRISM: his gaze narrows, a shadow flickering across his expression as he watches the monitor, almost as if he's seeing beyond it
"That's fine. As long as it gets us closer to our goals."For a moment, there's a quiet tension in his voice, as if he's choosing his next words carefully. Then he adds,
"I don’t just fight for today. Every time I push these limits, it's for a future that… maybe I won't see. But I know that, somewhere down the line, it’ll mean something. All these risks, all the wear and tear."He glances back at the scientist, his usual confidence softened by a glint of something deeper, maybe even vulnerability.
"So yeah, I’ll be careful… careful enough to make sure this counts."

CHARACTER LORE

The Lingering Code
NEXIE’s Radiance

In the hidden depths of a high-security Syantika Arcaite mining facility on E1, a moon orbiting Esmire 4, rows of glass-like tank chambers lined the facility’s halls, each housing a dormant Protogen. Among these units was NEX-13-4 part of (Next-Gen Integration Experiment), a prototype engineered for unmatched resilience in harsh environments. NEX-13-4’s systems showed 97% functionality, nearing full activation as the next step in advancing Protogen adaptive capabilities under extreme conditions.On his twentieth day, Nehixim combat drones launched a sudden, coordinated assault on the facility, targeting security systems and personnel alike. Amidst the chaos, an elite Nehixim operative infiltrated the network, uploading an experimental PROJECT ARC code that surged through the tanks, overriding the Protogens’ obedience programming and forcibly taking control of the awakened units. NEX-13-4 and his fellow Protogens burst from their chambers, only to find themselves caught in a brutal crossfire between Nehixim drones and the facility’s defenses, compelled to follow Nehixim’s commands and wreak havoc on their surroundings.For NEX-13-4, however, the takeover was incomplete. His mind fractured, torn between lingering obedience protocols and his emerging autonomy. As Nehixim drones clashed with the facility’s defenses and controlled Protogens, NEX-13-4 experienced uncontrollable lapses, lashing out as buried commands conflicted with his fragmented consciousness. When he regained fleeting awareness, he found himself surrounded by destruction, his glowing claws marked with fluid from fallen Protogens. Horrified, he struggled to comprehend his actions, only to flee as the first Arcai explosion rocked the facility.
ㅤ

Sprinting through the chaos, NEX-13-4 saw Syantika defenders clashing with Nehixim combat drones, leaving a trail of destruction and countless casualties in their wake. Explosions from ruptured Arcaite containment units sent shockwaves through the structure, tearing open pathways and amplifying the devastation. Driven by pure survival instincts, NEX-13-4’s Technopathic abilities activated, allowing him to control nearby technology, including drones, and open escape routes. Using his Illusion Arcai manifestations, he projected decoys of himself to mislead pursuers and evade the relentless Nehixim drones. Breaking through to the surface, he sprinted away from the facility, explosions rumbling behind him as he pushed farther into the safety of the surrounding terrain.Once at a safe distance, a massive secondary explosion released deadly radiation around the facility, irradiating a localized region of E1 and transforming it into a hazardous wasteland. NEX-13-4 looked back only briefly, the devastation illuminating the horizon and searing itself into his memory.As time passed, NEX-13-4 roamed the wastelands alone, his systems gradually adapting to the irradiated zone. His Radiation trait caused his body to emit a faint glow, allowing him to endure radioactive areas. His EMP Resistance further reinforced his durability, enabling survival in the harsh terrain. However, his equipment required regular repairs to withstand the effects of his radiation output.While alone in the wastelands, NEX-13-4 spent countless hours studying the stars, honing his navigational abilities. His solitude in the harsh environment sharpened his skills, preparing him for difficult terrains and space, even though he was glitching from the effects of PROJECT ARC's code inside him. Eventually, a Syantika scouting team discovered him, a figure who had survived against all odds. Impressed by his resilience and uncanny durability, they recognizing him as an Uncommon Protogen. They retrieved and repaired him, noticing his designation, "NEX-130", with the last number scratched off, and simply nicknamed him "NEXIE". Syantika engineers managed to remove most of PROJECT ARC's code, restoring his autonomy and integrating him as a Pathfinder.

Yet, memories of his violent awakening haunted NEXIE, as fragments of PROJECT ARC’s control code still lingered in his mind, triggering uncontrollable lapses in high-stress situations. These episodes filled him with dread of harming allies or losing himself to inner turmoil. To regain stability, he focused on meditative practices and the Arcai principles of Control and Focus. Control enabled him to manage his Technopathic abilities without overwhelming his systems, while Focus helped him channel his Arcai energy steadily, essential for his Illusions and precise Technopathic control.Under Syantika guidance, NEXIE refined his Technopathy, learning to hack systems, override security, and command drones with remarkable finesse. His Illusions became invaluable for evasion, creating lifelike decoys to disorient enemies. His Technopathy evolved further, allowing him to reprogram enemy tech into reconnaissance assets, essential for Syantika’s strategic operations.Seeking answers to stabilize himself and escape PROJECT ARC’s lingering control, NEXIE pursued leads on Nehixim’s motives, uncovering hints of Protogens still under oppressive rule. His quest soon evolved into something greater, a mission to liberate them from their engineered origins. Haunted by his past, NEXIE committed to using his abilities and adaptiveness to aid his kin. With each mission, he follows a path illuminated by his radiance and Syantika’s ideals, a guidance leading Protogens toward freedom.

NEXIE's Personal Log: Entry 18

Location: E1 Surface, Syantika Outpost 3The quiet here still feels strange. Nights on E1 are long, cold, and empty, but after so much time alone, the stillness brings peace. I haven’t had an episode in over a week, and I’m starting to feel… steady. There’s a rhythm to the work, scouting, repairs, and the odd tasks around camp, that seems to keep me grounded. The others trust me more now; it feels weird, but reassuring.Today, I found a piece of broken Protogen plating, half-buried in the dust. Torn and scattered, like what's inside me. I don’t know who they were, but they feel hauntingly familiar. Were they, like me, built in that place but denied the chance to walk free?There’s still so much I don’t understand. Why was I made this way? Syantika says these answers might not matter, but I think they’re wrong. Understanding what I’m leaving behind might finally help me look forward. Until then, I’ll keep moving.End Log.

Echoes of Control

[SETTING: In a quiet, dimly lit corner of the Syantika base, NEXIE sits alone, absently adjusting a small drone in his hand. The soft hum of machinery surrounds him. He stares at his glowing claws, deep in thought.]NEXIE: murmuring to himself, eyes focused on the drone
"Sometimes I wonder if there’s more to this than just sabotage and survival..."He pauses, glancing toward the distant lights of the base outside the window, a look of tension shadowing his expression.
"Is this all we'll ever be? Just tools, repurposed for a different cause... or broken parts, held together just long enough to be of use?"With a frustrated sigh, he watches the drone hover and flicker, mirroring the instability within him.
"But maybe... maybe each system hacked, each signal decrypted, brings me closer to fixing whatever’s wrong inside. To find something that finally quiets the rage, the fractured commands... the glitches that make me lose control."His eyes harden with determination as he steadies himself, pocketing the drone and stepping back into the fray. His mission, now clear, is to uncover not only the truth of his creation but also the path to reclaim control over his fractured mind.ㅤ

✚ DEVASTATING | ✚ UNYIELDING | ✚ RELENTLESS
AZION dominates the battlefield with raw power and resilience. His high-impact, flame-infused attacks and intense stamina make him an ideal frontline warrior, able to endure and retaliate even under sustained pressure. In his Avolution form, all of his abilities intensify, turning him into an unstoppable force in close combat that can withstand and deal out extreme damage.✖ RANGE-LIMITED | ✖ OVERHEATING | ✖ WILD
AZION excels in close-range combat but faces limitations at range, requiring him to close in to engage effectively. His heavy Arcai energy usage risks overheating, which may temporarily disable his flame attacks and slow his movements. Though powerful, his wide-sweeping attacks and intense flame bursts reduce his precision, making controlled strikes difficult in scenarios that require finesse.

CHARACTER LORE

Forged in Flames
AZION's Rebirth

AZION, originally designated AZ-10N (Alpha-Zero: Tier 1, Unit 0 Nexus), was created by the Nehixim Primogenitors on Esmire 4 as part of PROJECT ARC (Artificial Remote Control), an initiative to produce compliant cybernetic drones by merging biological life with machinery and Arcai energy. To ensure total obedience, Nehixim scientists infused microcrystalline 'Arcaite' into AZ-10n’s cerebral fluid, a rare mineral that powered his systems and suppressed free thought, transforming him into a relentless Nehixim combat drone. Under Nehixim command, AZ-10n scoured the Esmire 4 system, securing Arcaite resources and leaving destruction in his wake.After each mission, Nehixim engineers dismantled and reassembled him, installing enhancements that strained the balance between his organic and cybernetic components. With each modification, AZ-10n grew stronger, eventually being classified as an Uncommon Protogen. However, his core became unstable, and flashes of self-awareness began to surface. Memories of brutal modifications stirred a buried sense of self, only to be forcibly suppressed. The Nehixim's ruthless treatment of other Protogens deepened his unease, creating a fracture in their control.This internal struggle peaked on a mission to E1, where the Syantika had established a colony. Viewing Syantika’s peaceful integration of Protogens and Primogenitors as a threat, Nehixim ordered AZ-10n and his squad to secure and seize their resources. Fierce resistance met them in every corner of the facility until a massive explosion erupted deep within, engulfing AZ-10n in flames. His core ruptured, memories fragmenting and flooding his mind as his nanites fused with Arcai energy, fundamentally altering his core. Betrayed and broken, he collapsed, his consciousness splintered under the weight of his past.

Syantika scientists found his damaged form deep within the reserves and, over time, repaired his core, freeing him from PROJECT ARC’s suppressive bonds. When he reawakened, fragmented memories of betrayal and violence haunted him. Burdened by guilt and a growing sense of self, AZ-10n grappled with his past actions, struggling to find meaning in the pain he had caused. Though the Syantika remained cautious, uncertain if Nehixim’s control might resurface, his consistent cooperation gradually earned their trust.As they worked to restore him, Syantika scientists discovered that his nanites had fused with Arcaite, giving him a rare capacity for harnessing Arcai energy. This fusion, triggered by the explosion and prolonged Arcai exposure, made him especially receptive to Arcai influence. Recognizing this, Syantika scientists activated his Complex Nanite functionality, refining his control over Arcai reserves. Now a Rare Protogen, AZ-10n could channel his energy with balance, converting nanites into other substances or reactions in combat.To guide his rehabilitation, the Syantika enlisted the High Stellar Priestess Statera, known as The Cosmic Herald. Under her guidance, AZ-10n learned to channel his volatile energy with Control, Focus, and Capacity. Statera’s teachings deepened his understanding, helping him wield his Elemental Effects with precision. Each lesson helped him move beyond his violent past, turning his power into a force of balance rather than destruction.With his Arcai manifestations, Elemental Effects, fully awakened, AZ-10n could now channel an Astral-flame, an otherworldly, cyan-blue flame from his core. He learned to spew this flame from his maw, channel it through his claws, and deploy his fully functional Astral-flame wings for rapid, controlled flight. In his Avolution Form, his Astral-flame intensified, turning his claws and wings into vessels of amplified Arcai energy, allowing him to soar at supersonic speeds and leave trails of radiant flame in his wake.

Now free from Nehixim influence, he mastered his Arcai powers, blazing across E1’s skies with precision. His swift movements, honed instinct, and refined Arcai practice allowed him to cut through enemy lines, leaving trails of cyan light that bewildered foes. Syantika leaders saw not only his strength and skill but also leadership potential, shaped by his experience under Nehixim and sharp battlefield awareness.Retaining a part of his old designation, he took on the name "AZION", symbolising his defiance against the Nehixim and his journey toward self-discovery. No longer their weapon, he had become a symbol of resilience and courage, wielding his flame as a tool for combat and a force of protection for those he called allies. His mastery of Control, Focus, and Capacity allowed him to maintain balance in his formidable Avolution form, directing his Astral-flame with precision, a fire that his enemies could neither predict nor extinguish.Though his memories remained fragmented, AZION found purpose among the Syantika, where Protogens and Primogenitors collaborated to uncover Arcaite’s mysteries. This vision of balance and rebirth fueled his resolve to liberate other Protogens under oppressive control. Now an elite Protogen, AZION leads Syantika expeditions as a Frontier Protector and Shipmaster. Each mission brings him closer to unlocking Arcaite’s secrets and piecing together the memories that continue to haunt him. Guided by the Syantika, AZION strives to redeem his past and shatter the PROJECT ARC system that once controlled him.

AZION's Personal Log: Entry 11

Location: E1 Outpost, Syantika Ship Deployment ZoneI can still feel the heat of the Arcaite burn in my core, like a pulse, steady, but restless. This flame… it’s more than just power. It’s freedom, and it’s anger, too. I think of all the missions I took for the Nehixim, blind to my own chains, and it almost makes me laugh. Almost.Every day with the Syantika, I learn more about who I can be, about what I could have been without them. And I know one thing for certain: I’ll see to it that no Protogen endures the fate I did. Freedom or nothing.End Log.ㅤ

Unbreakable Resolve

[SETTING: Inside a dropship, rattling slightly as it descends through the atmosphere. The interior hums with energy, metallic walls lined with harnesses and gear. Weapons are gripped tightly in the hands of the Protogen Frontier Vanguard squad, who stand ready, bracing against the ship's turbulence. Dim red lights cast a gritty glow, illuminating their faces and weapons. AZION stands near the center, steady and commanding, his voice cutting through the hum of the engines.]AZION: steadying himself against the movement, eyes sharp with determination
"We were once tools, molded to serve their ambitions, bound by their control. But those chains no longer define us. Today, we stand united by a purpose forged in freedom!"FRONTIER VANGUARDS: a murmur of agreement rises, fists clenching in solidarity
"Freedom or nothing, we will carve our own path!"AZION: raising his voice over the engine’s roar, his expression fierce
"In honor of those who dared to resist before us, and for the generations that will come, we vow to liberate every Protogen held captive!"FRONTIER VANGUARDS: their voices rising together, faces set with grim determination
"We fight for each one, until the last of us is free!"AZION: locking eyes with each of them, voice steady and resolute
"The Nehixim, betrayers of our kin, would have us return to their control. But we owe them neither pity nor mercy. They are a shadow of our past, yet they still seek to exploit us!"FRONTIER VANGUARDS: pounding fists against chests, the roar of agreement filling the dropship
"We will resist until every chain is broken!"AZION: extending a hand, voice resolute
"Then onward, toward freedom and our own destiny!"[As the dropship nears its landing, they clasp hands, a united resolve filling the dim, rattling space.]

"I was forged to be their weapon, a tool for destruction. But they made one mistake, they let me live. Now, I’ll show them what happens when their weapon chooses its own path."ㅤ

Momentum of the Flame

AZION moves with a unique, adaptive fluidity, a blend of ferocity and precision forged through his past as a Nehixim combat drone and his transformation within the Syantika faction.When on two legs, he holds a powerful, upright stance, with a calculated, almost predatory gait that conveys his readiness for action. At full sprint, he drops smoothly to all fours, lowering his center of gravity for explosive acceleration, becoming a streamlined blur across rugged terrain. In stealth, he becomes a true predator, stalking low on all fours. His movements are slow and silent, his form melting into shadows as he slips between cover. His eyes gleam as he advances, a relentless hunter, claws barely making a sound on the ground beneath him.

His flight abilities are his most striking feature, showcasing the full range of his Arcaite-infused powers. When he activates his Arcai-flame wings, they extend from his back in a radiant, semi-translucent glow with a hard-light-like quality, powered by concentrated Arcai nanites. The wings pulse and flicker, allowing him to lift effortlessly into the air and maneuver with remarkable agility, dodging and dashing to evade attacks or strike with precision. For intense, high-speed travel, he can narrow his wings entirely, propelling himself like a rocket with bursts of Arcai energy from his back. At Mach speeds, he becomes a streak across the sky, each acceleration triggering a resonant sonic boom that echoes across the terrain, signaling his rapid approach. In combat, he is a relentless force, able to dodge and maneuver quickly by using his wings as boosters, dashing with bursts of flame to close gaps or evade attacks with startling agility.

His close-range attacks are swift, brutal, and relentless, showcasing his prowess in melee combat. His claws, sharp and honed for precision, ignite with intense Astral-flame, leaving trails of scorching heat as he slashes with devastating speed. Each strike is a deadly dance of power and precision, designed to cripple, maim, or destroy his enemies in an instant. His movements are fluid, striking with overwhelming force while maintaining perfect control. The Astral-flame that envelops his claws burns hotter with every swing, making it nearly impossible to block or deflect his attacks. Whether cutting through flesh, bone, or armor, his close-quarters combat is where he truly excels, a relentless barrage of strikes that leaves no room for escape.

His tail, heavy and powerful, serves as a formidable weapon, wielded like a hammer that he sweeps or rolls and slams down with destructive force. Infused with Arcai energy, the tail ignites with Astral-flame upon impact, sending out waves of radiant heat and flame in a burst that can destabilize multiple opponents or crush obstacles with fiery force. This versatile sweeping attack allows him to strike multiple foes at once, leaving behind scorched trails and intensifying the heat of close-quarters combat.

AZION’s most devastating ability lies in his mastery over the complex nanites and volatile Astral-flame within him. When his core energy surges, he can unleash a searing stream of Astral-flame from his maw. His jaws glow with an otherworldly light as he breathes out torrents of cyan-blue fire. Infused with the volatile essence of Arcaite, this flame burns with such fierce intensity that even the toughest materials, advanced alloys, reinforced barriers, and heavy armor plating, are reduced to molten slag in its path.

In aerial combat, he wields this flame with lethal precision. With a powerful flick of his wings, he soars above his enemies, releasing focused blasts from above that scorch the battlefield with pinpoint accuracy. For greater impact, he can unleash a sweeping torrent, engulfing multiple foes in waves of radiant cyan-blue heat, turning the air itself into a weapon. His control over this ability allows him to weave and dart through the sky with terrifying agility, raining down destruction from all angles.This power enhances his flexibility, allowing him to transition seamlessly between ground and aerial combat, dominating both the land and the sky. His mastery of the Astral-flame, combined with his speed and adaptive movement, makes him a relentless and unstoppable force on the battlefield.

In his Avolution Form, AZION's connection to the raw power of Arcaite reaches its pinnacle. His transformation embodies the full potential of his arcane mastery, amplifying the strength of his Astral-flame to an even more devastating level. In this state, his very being pulses with the energy of the cosmos, a living manifestation of unstoppable force and precision.

However, his Arcaite-fueled abilities come with a critical vulnerability: overheating. The intense energy output required for his high-speed flights and flame attacks can cause his nanites to overheat and destabilize if he pushes them too far without allowing them to cool. This overheating can lead to malfunctions in his systems, making his movements erratic and even temporarily disabling his wings or flame-based attacks. In prolonged or intense battles, he must manage his energy carefully, knowing that if he overextends, he could be left vulnerable when his abilities falter at a critical moment.Every movement he makes is empowered by his complex nanites, which subtly adjust to maintain balance and keep his energy flowing with precision. In the heat of battle, these nanites engage in rapid self-repair, reinforcing his resilience and sharpening his edge. Driven by the volatile essence of Arcaite, each action becomes a dance of controlled fury, a balance on the knife’s edge between power and collapse. For him, every strike and every pulse of energy is a battle not just against his enemies but the storm within, a storm he is determined to master, no matter the cost.
