Carbon ΣΝ-9Γ8 / “Bort”
Carbon ΣΝ-9Γ8 was born from the remains of Alpha and Beta Centauri where creatures made of the purest elements reside. Their goal: Acquire source material. Carbon ΣΝ-9Γ8 traveled to a little blue planet and discovered much to his surprise that not only was the planet covered in his source material, it was alive and enjoyed the material just as much as he did. Yes the carbon-based life forms indulged in eating other carbon based lifeforms in extravagant and delicious ways. Something that Carbon ΣΝ-9Γ8 quickly grew to love. Soon he began adopting local customs, such as wearing clothing and even taking a more personalized name. Now calling himself ‘Bort’, this particular Carbon decided he was on permanent vacation and was going to enjoy all the tasty food this world had to offer.
Bort is a decisive dude. He only acts with complete certainty. Always trying to think three steps ahead. He tends to be wrong half the time, but nonetheless he is a strategist first and foremost. He has an inexpressive demeanor to go with his thoughtful approach. Some tend to find him robotic and emotionless, but the truth is he is just very professional, something hard wired into him on his home world. Despite his overly professional, deductive, and stern demeanor, Bort is a hedonist at heart. He only really cares about food and relaxation. He doesn’t have any real attachment to people at all. Just the stuff they make.
Now he finds himself facing off with members of his own race, he is forced to protect the humanity(‘s food), lest his permanent vacation ends. Circumstance has also forced him to baby sit one of the fleshies that seems to have absorbed the power of one of the strongest members of his race.
Maybe prolonged exposure to Atta will make the guy loosen up and stop being so stoic.
