Patches

Here comes a janitor to save the day!

0 · 551 views · located in Ingenium

a character in “Fusion Fantasy Neo”, originally authored by Alexander von Koopa, as played by RolePlayGateway

Description

Theme – It’s A Smile World

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Age: 25 (Appearance), 15 (Actual years since creation – robot)

Gender: Technically none (Robot); Looks Female

Race: Robot

Alignment: Neutral Good

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Physical Description: Patches looks like a six-foot-tall human with brown hair, stitched together and given shabby clothes to make her look like a ragdoll. Beneath this, however, she is comprised of nanobots placed together to give her a silver metallic sheen.

Personality: Patches talks with a cockney accent and has a happy-go-lucky attitude, always seeing the best in people and not wanting anyone to fight anyone. She hates resorting to violence as a way to stop evil and would gladly stay behind and clean up the mess other heroes make.

History: Patches doesn’t like to talk about herself, but what we do know is that she was in the White Platoon’s base before even Dr. Y, the nominal founder, keeping it spick and span. The White Platoon appreciated her there even though she didn’t help them go out and battle evil, but eventually she gained the confidence to defend the base and act as their mission control. After the White Platoon’s last mission against Morbul she was revealed to be a robot, but has not said anything about why.

Equipment: Patches technically is equipment, being comprised of shapeshifting nanobots, but most of her equipment is of the cleaning variety – a broom, a mop, a pail of water, whatever she needs to keep some place tidy.

Abilities: Patches is not constrained by human limitations, and as such is incredibly hardy and durable. She’s also physically stronger than most humans, but limits herself to fighting with a broom to lessen this cheap advantage.

Other: Patches isn’t good with names and tends to nickname everyone she meets.

So begins...

It's right about now that Alex's reception comes back and he picks up. Patches hurriedly goes over to a computer and starts typing things in.

"Patches, thank God," said Alex. "Quick, I need you to search for any sign of someone calling himself the god of wa-"

"No time for that, guv!" shouted Patches. "Bell Tower's under attack by a whole bunch 'a airships!"

"And... you expect me to take them all out?" asked Alex. "Me. Whose powers include having a sword. One sword and one piece of one."

"Come off it!" said Patches. "This world's gonna need all the help it can bloody well get, and you ain't helpin' a thing by moanin' about yer one sword! Now are you gonna 'elp or aren't ya?"

"... Well, in case you haven't noticed, I can't fly," said Alex.

Patches presses the "Enter" button on her computer.

"Not a worry," said Patches. "Help's on the way."

"Can that help get here and to the Bell Tower fast?" asked Alex.

Patches heard the sound of crashing ice on the other end.

"That fast enough for ya?" asked Patches.

"Plenty fast," said Alex. "And... what's Duma holding?"

"Secret weapon," said Patches. "Doc would probably order it."

As they did, Lucas could feel a resonance synching with the DRACOS Junction on his arms - it was resonating with the harmonic energy from all these hopes and prayers.

"Okay, now to transmit these hopes to the tower...!"

He concentrated all his focus through DRACOS into an open communication channel.

--------------------------------------------------

Outside, this channel's transmitter received the harmonic energy of these hopes and directed them toward the Bell Tower in the form of hundreds if not thousands of bright lights.

"Patches," said Alex, coming back on the phone. "I was PREPARING to kick some butt."

"Well... you can still kick butt anywhere else, I suppose," said Patches. "'Sides, I got Duma and Terrus to ya, didn't I?"

"It's still kind of disappointing," muttered Alex.

"Well, sorry that saving the entire planet with the hopes and dreams of everyone on it disappoints you, guv."

Lucas was happy to see that the conflict in the Bell Tower was resolved. "And that's...that."

In any case, he still needs to focus on the sword pieces. "Now then! The equations on the second scroll seem to pertain more to people than places. There's the Mars figure you mentioned before; as for the second, we believe it's most likely related to Duncan, Sir Ganymede's brother. We're still lost on the third, though..."

"Not to mention that one we deciphered about the traitor..." said Patches.

"Wait, what?" asked Alex. "What's that one about?"

"Summat about 'order to purest chaos'. Know anyfin' about it?" asked Patches, eager to figure that one out.

A brief pause on the other end.

"Yeah," said Alex. "Daniel Xavier. Before your time. He used to be this big 'man-on-a-mission' out to kill everyone who wanted to destroy the world or something, and then... he found some Wheel of Fate artifact and went crazy. Now he can't make any decision without consulting it, no matter how crazy it would be. If it's talking about him, than he and the first piece of Entropy would be in the Old Chateau."

Through all this, Patches pulls up a file on Daniel Xavier. It pretty much backs up Alex's story.

"While yer at it, any ideas about this Mars fella?" asked Patches.

"Look for anywhere that a whole bunch of people have been recently killing each other," said Alex. "He... he has that effect on people."

"Alright, searching..." Lucas opened a scan for any news of mass homicide.

One of the most notable instances of mass homicide is popping up in Yōgan Volcano. Like, right now. As in "in progress".

"That's not good," said Patches.

"What?" asked Alex.

"Summat goin' down at Yōgan Volcano, guv," said Patches.

"Dammit!" shouted Alex. "We don't have anyone that can get there in time!"

A brief pause.

"Unless... Duma, Terrus, you think you can get to the volcano?"

"Yes," came Terrus' voice from the other end.

"... Can you do it, and will you?"

"Absolutely."

"Okay, okay, let's...let's make haste. Still got three pieces overall to identify...!"

Lucas looked back to the third equation. "Unity...war...treason...war death...gate..."

"Call you back," said Alex before he hung up the phone.

Patches goes back to trying to decipher the third scroll.

Lucas then focused on the "30 coins" bit.

(Wait...maybe it's not just talking about some traitor. Maybe it's something close to the specific traitor the 30 silver symbolizes - Judas...)

Lucas opens a search on any current/former enemies of the White Platoon, namely those with some relation, action-wise or name-wise, to Judas. Hopefully he'll get something...

One pops up pretty quickly - Marshall Judah, the American Secretary of the Army. Right now he's staying at an embassy here in Sanctuary.

"(!) Oh yeah, I remember now - Judah passed a bill that disbanded the White Platoon after the war against Majestic! Dad remembered that like it was yesterday...Come to think of it, I built the DRACOS Junction while taking his notes into consideration."

<OOC> As far as this world goes, that's why Lucas built the DRACOS Junction.

"If 'e's got it," said Patches. "I'd have a care. If 'e gets the idea that Alex is gettin' 'is swords 'n gang back together, 'e won't take it well."

"Hm, yeah...He IS a bit touchy about anyone with 'superpowers'. Well, him and Mr. Killian," Lucas continued. "Oh boy...It's gonna take a miracle to get that shard if Judah has it...!"

Lucas was considering convincing Judah to give the shard, but how would he go about that?

Well, trying to coerce him into doing it, while theoretically an option due to Judah lacking powers, was really stupid and would essentially be an act of war. The only good options would be to steal the shard or to just ask him for it. As for how... well, honesty is the best policy.

Lucas takes a deep breath to calm himself.

"Okay...May as well chance a meeting with him about it. I'm sure he'll understand if I just explain everything to him."

And so, Lucas headed out of the Templars' base and proceeded on to the embassy where Judah is staying at.

Back at base, Patches was excitedly scribbling things down.

"Good news, soldier boy!" said Patches. "Think I deciphered the second, and might be close ta breakin' the third!"

Patches clears her throat - unnecessary, since she's a robot, but still.

"'For the second piece, you will have to find the member of the blood-sucking undead who you betrayed through inaction,'" said Patches. "Vaguely sure what that one means. And I'm gettin' summat about 'first and last' for the third, but still don't make a lick of sense."

"Hu - ? Oh. Okay, that's great." Lucas sat back down in his chair, stealthily slipping the device onto the computer from underneath. "Um...listen, things are gonna be a bit diff - " Just then, the monitor displays an incoming call. "...I'll continue in a sec."

Lucas answers the call, the satellite giving a visual of Camilia's location in Rarofiore Desert. "Camilia! What's your status?"

"Kinda dizzy...but otherwise good!" Camilia brought out the Doomsday shard that she kept under her scarf.

"Y...Yeah, looks like it. Good job there!"

Camilia tucked the shard back under her scarf. "Also, I think I might have learned something about another shard's location. 'It was being held in what once was a land-bound base, now floating in space, and held by either a very short or very tall man. Perhaps he was floating.'"

"Huh...odd description for a person. But in space? Something tells me I know what that is...Anyway, it looks like Damian is still in the Deumanus area. You might wanna check in on him."

"Will do."

"Oh, and Camilia?"

"?"

"I...I need to tell you and Damian something once you rendezvous."

"Like...?"

"...Meet with Damian first."

"...Okay. Speak to you later."

The call ended there. Wordlessly, Lucas switched the view to Dry Dry Desert. It looked like Alex, Andy, and Kaia were putting the finishing touches on an enemy mob.
