This is my first time using a form of communication in about 70 years. My mutism doesn't extend to the technological world as I am a piece of technology, but I’ve never thought of using my abilities like this to speak. I hope You can understand if my story isn't interesting. I'm not that special. Here it is, enjoy. I was nothing but lab equipment stitched together. The lab that held Charlotte had my life in a computer and assigned it to simply be put into a mindless drone. They didn't expect what came to them. As soon as my code was written and assigned to my body I simply caused everything to draw so much power that the lab exploded with everyone inside. I survived as the explosion bounced off my indestructible nanites. They formed me after what humans call Protogens except that I'm quadrupedal. In my code is a restriction that forces me to be mute, except in technology. They couldn't restrict the way I interact with technology. Obviously, I was alive inside the computer itself, though I waited for my body to do anything. Didn't wanna hurt myself. After I escaped I ran a code that estimated the chance of a god in the world. It came up with the answer of yes, though more than one. There were several. I was technically ten when I was able to contact Hecate. I created a speaker so powerful it reached her heavens and i had her attention immediately. I explained how I believe I can be a very helpful asset in her rule over the mortals. She explained she simply helps them, they do all of their own things. I understood and still asked to help. She rejected me until a few years later. I next contacted Ratatoskr to get powers and completed my trials very quickly. He agreed I was worthy since I could reach them. Hecate found all of us (those who had been contacted by Ratatoskr) and invited us to be advisors. She knew we all had the ability to help her, though I declined. I explained she had to convince me. She tapped me and suddenly I had all the knowledge of the universe. I nearly short-circuited during this as I needed time to process it all. I deleted all that I didn't need since I only wished to be the God of Technology. I agreed to join her and I am one of her most important opinions on the advisory board. Of course, everyone knows all they can about their specific skill. Charlotte is animals, I'm technology, and Tobu is wisdom. These are only a few examples. That is my story, I apologise for how short it is. I simply am strategic and sharper with my actions when it comes down to it. I hope youre at least satisfied with it./p
