(NM-2011 tribute)
NM-3084 is my second tribute character, dedicated to the Numan villanesses of old. Influenced by NM-1153 and NM-2011 in the
PSMDCD.
NM-3084 (Reya)
Gender: F
Age: 3
Race: Numan
Reya was a charming girl, naive yet headstrong and with an unshakable sense of justice. She arrived in Gurhal shortly before the Centennial of the Tripartite Treaty and quickly blended in among the Newmans of Neudaiz. She diligently reported back on all aspects of Gurhalian life. Their culture, history, politics, technology, etc. For the most part she kept to herself and simply observed, but that changed when the SEED came. Seeing the destruction and anguish around her - Reya could not allow herself to sit back and watch as this system fell apart. She joined the system-wide private security firm "Guardians" to assist in the struggle against the SEED. It was not long before things began to go terribly askew. The SEED presence disturbed the flow of Photons throughout the system. Photons, a technology not explored in Algol, carry with them the memories of the past - from which Divinations are often preformed. On Reya, they had a similar effect - unlocking a genetic memory unknown to exist by her creators. Her dreams were filled with terrible nightmares of torturous experiments and sorrow. Of betrayal, persecution, and death. These memories, both her own and not her own, of those she loved and cared for - dying, and leaving her alone.
Eventually, even the true and original purpose of the Numan project was revealed to her. She was a monster, bred for nothing more than the act of total genocide. These dreams tore at her sanity as she fled to Parum, to the ruins of Old Mellvore city where she lived, much to her nature. She dwelled there for some time, like a cornered animal spending her days in a veil of rage and torment - attacking anything that dared to come near. She scarred the biosystems lab insignia into her cheek and from then on was known only by her serial number: NM-3084. Reya, was dead.
Then one day, everything changed. A man in a long white robe came to the city accompanied by a red haired woman and an entourage of scientists and CAST soldiers. They had come to inspect the damage from the blast which had destroyed the city so many years ago, and to study what effect the A-Photons in the reigion had on the native creatures in the presence of the SEED. NM-3084 savagely attacked the group, ambushing them from above and overwhelming them. Though she killed many, she was eventually subdued and would have been killed herself if not for the intervention of Hauzer. He recognized that she was no mere Newman, and saw in her a talent which he could used if harnessed. He had NM-3084 restrained and returned to the Illumines facilities. There he took NM under his care, taught her how to channel and control her rage, and eventually persuaded her to eventually join his own cause. Not for the restoration of Human rule, but for total annhilation. NM agreed, and from then on has worked within the fringes of the Illumines to help bring about the end of life in Gurhal. She holds a station now similar to the Arkguard - a double agent who still uses her position and knowledge within the Guardians to serve Illumines ends.
However, things are slowly changing for NM-3084. Hauzer, who once promised to hold her high in his confidence, has found a new project and focus for hs attention... Helga. It was all another lie, another betrayal. Just like Eusis who promised her there would be no more monsters like her. Just like Rudy who promised to always be there for her, but then died shortly afterward, leaving her alone with and with child. The jelousy over her apparent dismissal roils within her - and it's yet to be seen whether she will be stay loyal to the Illumines or be an instrument of their destruction.
While NM holds the utmost contempt for humans, she tends to harbor a special hatred for Gurhalian Newmen - a weak and pedantic race who's very existence is a pathetic affront of her breed. The fact that they are accepted as equals among the races, while her sisters faced fear, persecution, and violence only serves to further reinforce her animosity.
