Fruit of the Vine:Hollan Seti

Hollan Seti, the Baron of Metal

Appearance: An image of Seti in his birth Chancel

Though Seti is a robot, he still needs to eat, breathe, and sleep just as much as any Noble. Only, he eats oil and electricity, his breathing is his cooling fans, and his sleep is a standby mode. Likewise, though he has no organs to break down under the wear of time, his parts will, nevertheless, begin to malfunction at the same rate as any human Noble's body.

Seti's Inhuman level of Aspect means that his body is divine essence, not simple metals. Therefor, he may guise just as easily as any Noble, and his oil works for blood in the Servant's Rite.

In Seti's eyes, the Estate of Metal is all about endurance. Things made from metal are things that are meant to endure years, if not centuries, of time.

Seti used to communicate with Gene back when he still lived in the Locus Ezkahiel through the internet, though he never allowed Gene to know that he was a robot. Seti respected Gene's seemingly endless wealth of knowledge and his skill with computers. In time, a friendship formed. Seti's dedication to Gene's wellbeing is the closest thing to 'love' the robot has ever experienced; which, apparently, was enough for the Servant's Rite.

• Gene lives in Washington and lives at home with his mother

When Seti attempted to publish a historical essay in an online editorial, Richard Lawe appeared to debunk and discredit his article. Seti was furious; how could such a learned professor not see that sphinxes were responsible for guarding the secrets of the desert from the Egyptians? The text and the evidence were right there! Dr. Lawe and Seti sparred many more times after that, always disagreeing over past causes and effects. Seti loathed him, but respected his experience and resources enough to turn him into an Anchor once he was enNobled.
