Bio[edit]

Built by a vanished deity-engineer, MK-∞β—nicknamed "Em-Kay" by the locals—is a divine assistant forged to maintain the balance of cosmic entropy and municipal infrastructure. His precise origin is a mystery buried in forgotten archives and mythic blueprints, but his presence is unmistakable.

Em-Kay carries within him the essence of a clockmaker god’s last breath and all the functionality of a disgruntled contractor. When he sees a crumbling wall or a bleeding ally, he moves with perfect clarity. When the timeline glitches or a hinge squeaks, he intervenes without apology. He is not a warrior by design, but he’s very good at “preventing further damage.”

Though outwardly gruff and impatient, MK harbors a strange reverence for both life and craft. He treats organic beings and delicate machinery with the same level of care—mostly. He is, after all, a product of precision, not sentiment.

Personal Motivations[edit]

  • Prevent cosmic collapse through timely intervention.
  • Locate his missing creator or at least maintain their legacy.
  • Keep the city running—structurally and spiritually.
  • Remind organic allies that just because they have hearts doesn’t mean they should ignore stress fractures.
