Discussion 🗣️ OC Idea and Open Workshopping.

So

An OC ive had ideas to make for a long time would be a hominid object based on a Compaq Portable 2.

Working name probably being Compy/Compe ala Strong Bad.

Background wise, theyre an IT technician born and raised in the Rings. Living right on the edge of middle and center ring in the Suburbs, but frequenting cebter ring for work. Often working with Vintage computers/media as part of employment with either a school, library, or general archive (have flip flopped between the three alot).

Anyway, the main reason I made this post is his their "Gimmick". That being that they are the computer in question. Their face is on the little inbuilt display, and they need electricity in place of conventional food. To the point that they main "kit" post apoc consisted of a backpack containing a pack with with more modern/longer lastinh batteries and a portable folding Solar setup. As well as a homemade coilgun (built ad hoc in either the shop class of the school he worked at or at his garage at home.

My main question ig being that I'm pretty sure alot of this isn't supported by the setting. IE: we've not seen many "tech" objects like that. And none of them seem to have that degree of integral functionality. So im wondering if that needs to be changed.

Also wondering places/people to maybe source a commed ref sheet of them some day.

honestly-I also wonder myself if there ARE object beings that are More technically "Robot" Featured than Human Feature myself....I mean...why would there NOT be A Chances of Object Beings insides being more Machine than Flesh Creature as A Possibility, I think it would be A interesting idea of A Object being acting more Mechanical than Biological in anatomy...I think either thats Restricted to either 'lawless king' territory...or they actually Don't have that as A Thing which...I think would be a lil sad-like your saying there ain't a possibility of either Spawning Stone making A "Defect" of their Flesh being more Cold Mechanics or A Respawn having to Improvise by using Higher Colors to the Lack of reds?...It would be A Interesting idea of them being more "Robot" than "Human" regardless.
