But Unfortunately There Is So Little Lore That You Basically Just Need To Start Making Stuff Up - Tumblr Posts
u should talk more about your UI thought i want to hear them i am intrigued
Oh yes absolutely! (note: this is all pre-spearmaster. I am currently in the process of writing out what'd happen in the campaign timelines) So first off: pre-ascension I think both UI's colony and UI's council were mostly made up of rich or religious people searching for job and business opportunities. Their council saw them as their pride and joy, definitely spoiled them a LOT. UI was also quite sheltered, not really being allowed to interact with fellow iterators, for a while the only "friends" they had were their council. Unfortunately spoiling your iterator, especially in the early stages of it's AI developing, is not a good way to teach it how to socialize with fellow iterators. Thus UI was often quite snooty pre-ascension, as well as very judgemental :( This of course didn't make them the most trustworthy iterator to have in a group, a lot of early lore (pre-ascension) relations with their group were... rough... to say the least! They had quite the habit to get into arguments! Well flash forward to after mass-ascension, UI's colony was one of the first to leave. (This gave them a resentment against Ascensionism, and by extension Sliver and the sliverists as well...) Yes UI had all these wills signed over to them, all these fancy and expensive items, but they had to learn the hard way that when they get lonely, they cannot throw all of the money and cool items at someone to make a friend. With loneliness and guilt at their past actions eating them from the inside out, UI decided to instead observe other fellow iterators to see what will help their loneliness. They had discovered that sharing something people would find interesting gives you attention, which is what they thought they needed to help their loneliness. Now where will they get interesting information? Group gossip of course! And so they began sharing some group gossip on the global broadcast network in hopes of gaining some attention... They certainly gained attention alright, not good attention, but attention nonetheless. They saw this as success. They thought that this is what friendship was, and surely now that thousands of eyes were on them, they surely had many many friends.. right? Well eventually they got bored of that too, you couldn't really talk to many people if they either distrusted you or just wanted to get gossip from you. They went to their group instead, and would mimic particularly NSH's behaviors or FP's behaviors in hopes of getting to be friends with them. While it annoyed Pebbles that UI was being such a copy cat, NSH found it endearing. UI and NSH had a friendship at first, until NSH became rather good friends with SRS... who UI did not like.. AT ALL. UI, thinking that NSH replaced them, went to go gossip about NSH and SRS on the broadcast network. NSH found out, was rather unhappy, and it soured the friendship, with UI soon losing contact with NSH. UI was rather confused, confused and guilty, they definitely did something wrong. LttM seemed like a good friend, so UI tried to get LttM's attention, they however failed because good ol' FP was in the way! Even pre-spearmaster, I do not think FP was doing all that good mentally, I think LttM was really busy trying to make sure that FP was alright. This is where UI's and FP's rivalry began. UI saw FP was an obstacle, FP saw UI as an annoying little brat. Thats sort of where it leaves off for now, the next bit would be spear master campaign! I am planning to post more about this au more in the future, so i can surely say that more lore would be coming soon!
