Description Character's Name: Wardoll

Mentor: Batman

Superpower: Devices

Weapon: Hand Blasters

Travel Power: Flight

Description of Powers: "Just a buncha whatever I could grab while I was breakin' outta that Harvester thing...been upgrading my chassis as I go, based on whatever I can get ahold of an' whatever I can unlock from that Exobug thingy I got in me."

Weakness: A random assortment of weapons and equipment given life by assimilated Apokoliptian technology, including the Sentience Circuits of a long-dead Father Box, held together by luck as much as will, and propelled by a spontaneous life-force that is equal part Exobyte data, newborn soul, and Internet downloads..? Nah, what could POSSIBLY go wrong...

Character's Real Name: Mechanical Auto-Initializing Sentient Youth, aka "M.A.I.S.Y."

Character's Age: About a week or so in her current configuration, but personality equivalent to a teenager (possesses large amounts of raw data but lacking in many of the actual life experiences to put much of it to use yet)

Character Personality:
Much like Slo-Bo from the old "Young Justice" comic, she's a bit of a slacker-Goth who views Earth as a VAST improvement over her "previous life" on Apokolips. She has a bit of the wide-eyed optimist to her, carefully if not completely hidden under a facade of snarkiness, dated pop-culture references, and random trivia that she uses as a defense mechanism. Friendly, if sarcastic, and a bit of a superhero fangirl to boot.

Brief Origin:
Wardoll's earliest memories come from an undisclosed period of time on Apokolips, where she claims to have once been part of a Father Box owned by a youth in the slums of Armaghetto whose rebellious personality and idolization of Earth heroes seems to have influenced her own earliest sentience. Assimilated by Brainiac at some point, she remained dormant within the vast mechanical consciousness until a seemingly random encounter with an Exobyte, released by Future!Lex in the present day, awakened the long-faded spark of consciousness within her. She carefully and quietly built herself a body out of pieces found in the Harvester ship she'd been rebuilt into and, when she discovered she was actually ON Earth, the planet of her (dead owner's) dreams, she made a break for it, ending up in Gotham (it reminded her of Apokolips).

((Just to put SOMETHING in here, here's my main from DCU Online. The game is...OK, but I really like how she turned out.))

Kind of a mix: Robot skin, Contemporary Tech chest and legs, Metalhead hair with Paramilitary head piece, Robotic shoulders, Retro Tech boots, Shielded Robot backpack, Hand Cannons, and the V-Domino mask on her face. At least in this pic, her current look has a couple of changes.

I used the Wardoll/M.A.I.S.Y names in her creation, and she's got shades of Maisy's personality, but I suppose she's more of her own character, really.

Very cool design for her.

Thanks. Getting the armor plates of the "New Genesis" costume to match the metal face of her Robot skin was a happy accident, but it REALLY makes her look sharp IMHO. The flight pack was a recent addition...before, she had mechanical wings and harness like a Robo-Hawkgirl, and she normally has black pigtails also.

Would you punch me if I suggested that she have a secret identity with the name Andi?

Yeah, I've tweaked my settings repeatedly but EVERYTHING in DCUO is shiny like polished latex. Even the shadows give off lens flare.
