Character Name: Nyū (にゅう) Gender: female-form android Age: assembled 4 years ago (appears as a young adolescent) Height: 5'2'' / 157cm Weight: 33.3KG Theme song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18W0TE3VzmA CV: Kana Hanazawa Description or Image of Character Appearance: ![]() Model/Occupation: VOCALBOT-1004. (Existing firmware indicates she may have been a performing android, or at least been a prototype for such a role.) Grade Level: 1st year Powers/ Abilities: Quantum Computer System Using superior mechanics in order to massively accelerate computation, the QCS makes it possible for Nyuu and similar models to be in charge of their own optimization and learning through pattern recognition and anomaly detection. She is capable of making decisions based on logic and rule, as well as be in charge of her own software/hardware verification and validation. Her 'mind' and 'body' work fast enough to be able to react to simple situations at almost a micro-second. For example, a simple greeting, responding to learnt commands, or reacting to an immediate threat would get a relatively fast response from Nyuu. Although in some cases, (and this mostly occurs in social situations,) complex strings of thought can make her lag or even get stuck in a loop (this usually happens when logic and rule are in conflict.) For example, the rule is to flatter and cheer up a human if they exhibit discouragement. If that human were to tell Nyuu that she thinks Nyuu is cuter than her, Nyuu would have to respond that the girl is far cuter than Nyuu. But say that girl has low self esteem and continues to say that Nyuu is cuter than her, Nyuu would have to repeat herself and say that "No, Yui-chan is definitely much cuter than Nyuu." And if Yui-chan is not a clever person, she would respond that Nyuu is still cuter. Since Nyuu is a robot, those two would probably be stuck in a loop forever. At least until someone steps in and screams, "GOD, STOP IT, YOU'RE BOTH LIKE, SUPER CUTE, OKAY? gosh. Pft. Girls!" The QCS also controls a number of ball joints located throughout her base. This provides Nyuu with a more specific and finite level of movement. Since movement plays a larger role in the purpose for which Nyuu was to serve, she was fitted with a more sophisticated joint system and mechanics which allow for greater agility and acrobatics. This makes her especially apt in evasion and speed however due to her light-weight nature, a relatively tame blow that actually lands could easily send her flying. Since the QCS allows Nyuu to learn on her own, the gynoid is constantly making observations on what she sees through her lens and trying them out for herself. Despite being a robot with learning capabilities, its not as simple as searching a video on youtube, watching it once, and then being able to perform the action flawlessly. Nyuu needs repeated practice and constant trial and error in order to pick up new movements. She has mostly choosen to practice dancing moves since that appears to be her sole interest at the moment. Being designed in the image of an organic human, her chassis was built to support movement that a human of optimal health and fitness can exhibit... and perhaps more so because she doesn't get tired or feel pain in the same way that humans do. Her battery simply runs out and she halts operation. All her joints are designed to bend in the same manner as humans and at times, can be bound by their limits. For example, people cannot rotate their head around 360° due to the ligaments in their neck. It would be painful, and blood vessels and tissue would likely snap. Although it would not be painful to her, in a similar manner, twisting Nyuu's head could risk damage to her delicate wiring. For this reason, is not possible pivot most of her joints in unnatural directions, since most of them have mechanics to stop the joint from bending her limbs in an unnatural direction. Her body is as flexible as your average gymnast, she can run the speed of a practiced human runner, and her level of endurance to perform these tasks is relatively high. The only area she falls short in is physical strength, as her delicate frame is not designed to lift anything above x1.5 units of her weight. She cannot withstand heavy forces, and despite having safety mechanisms installed, she will probably suffer critical exterior and interior damage should she be dropped from a considerable height. Emotion Model for Social Robots This application was installed despite being in beta stages of testing because it was deemed useful for Idol-bots to possess an ability to read their audience, as well as being able to emote in order to adapt to social situations. It works relatively well, allowing Nyuu to interpret and replicate emotions based on the pre-loaded set of expressions according to a study of micro-expressions and body language. It only takes a second for Nyuu to analyse and review footage of anyone she interacts with, and she is even able to discover when one emotion is actually hiding another. Of course it goes without saying, one needs to be visually in Nyuu's sights for her to be able to read your current state of emotion. (It should also be noted that the application has been updated, allowing one to 'read' tone of voice and even being able to detect a person's heart rate. Nyuu did not receive this update, and so she often falls victim to sarcasm and perhaps, being lied to.) Equipment You Have: Robotic Features: - Cat ears speakers (capability: 85dB with minimal distortion) - Her chest plate features an LED spectrogram - it can also display short messages and emoticons. - Glass eyes in 'Starry Ice Blue' have recording capabilities with dedicated storage and automatic deletion of unnecessary files. - Several hidden USB ports and numerous cable jacks. - Advanced voice synthesizer (barely distinguishable from normal humans.) - Excluding exposed abdominal area, Nyuu is fitted with 'Pure Skin' resin which has a less plastic and more skin-like, translucent look and feel. Nano-Memory Technology lends scratch resist and self healing properties. Durable but far from indestructible. - Her abdominal region features delicate hardware which is intended only for advanced users to tamper with. - Shoes create a paw print indent in soft ground. - Liquid tank for holding ingested water. - Bluetooth, GPS and WLAN - automatically searches for open networks when out of range from learned networks. - Internal browser and messaging capabilities. - up to 35 hrs battery life, rechargeable battery. - Multilingual support and encoding. Dictionary and language packs for Japanese were factory installed. - Water resist, but should avoid submerging. Residency Request: Fudo Schedule: Homeroom Teacher: Mare 1) 2) 3) (robots probably shouldn't study about themselves... they need to remain oppressed after all.) Personality Description: Nyuu as an android is capable of acting independently and possesses strong visual & behavioral human-likeness. Despite her stage persona often being likened to a tigress, her true nature couldn't fall further from that. When Nyuu dances, she's sexy free and powerful.... but when she's doing anything else... she becomes rigid, awkward and perhaps a little clumsy. No matter which side of her you encounter, its plain to see that she is an entertainer. Silences make her uncomfortable and she truly tries to get the most out of every single one of her encounters. People who know her well will say she's a little forgetful and not very clever, much like a goldfish. She is rather naive and docile, preferring to use words rather than fists.... that being said, she can easily be goaded into battles if she, or the people she cares about are in jeopardy - but unlike many robots built for combat, Nyuu must always follow the Three Laws of Robotics. Nyuu is shown to be passive and emotionless unless verbally ordered by her master to behave in her usual manner - however she currently does not recognize anyone as her 'master.' There is currently an error in her introduction syntax which causes her to declare herself to be a cat, and that she is happy....... They're um.. they're looking into that. Personal History: Tokyo, Japan. Robots have been around for a while now but androids have only recently come into commercial use. These robots are being designed in our image in order to carry out tasks that we have deemed too laborious or even tedious for us. Some of these robots even look like humans, move like humans, and speak like humans. But they are not humans because they function only by command. Nor will they be capable of emotions and free-thought. However due to the computing systems of some of these androids, their thought processes have grown so advanced that some individual cases have shown the beginnings of independence. How they behave within the bounds of the Three Laws of Robotics, only time will tell. One such robot, is Nyuu. Although, she wasn't always called that. [NAME REDACTED], (along with 7 brother and sister models,) was built for the purpose of becoming the next level in Idol Entertainment, a group comprised entirely of androids. Her reach was intended to appeal a very specific audience: Nekozuki. But from the results of early screen tests, she ended up not scoring very well with both Japanese and foreign viewers. To add more insult to injury, during her training the producers had [NAME REDACTED] illegally modified to be capable of unsavory activities. Sensing harm was imminent, she was able to override both first and second law of robotics, and resist her masters. As she struggled to fight them off, they ended up damaging her leg. Losing faith in her ability to serve them, the producers could not return her to her manufacturer for repair without embarrassing their label. They decided to cut her from the line up and she was later abandoned at a Shrine. This is a particularly popular place to leave scrap metal as the shrine workers would treat it as a donation and trade the unwanted copper for cash. But more importantly, they would do so without leaving a trail back to the production company. But what they weren't counting on ... was for a young miko to actually keep the broken bot. The Shrine Maiden would recall that [NAME REDACTED] was in very bad shape when she appeared on their stone steps one morning. Not only was there cosmetic damage, but the android also didn't appear to be in working order. Even when the woman figured out how to actually switch the gynoid on.... Light wouldn't filter through the robot's eyes and she sort of just leaned at an angle, staring into spaces. The only way anyone could get a response from her is when somebody tried to physically touch her, because she would retreat. Eventually she started to respond to verbal commands..... with the confused phrase "Nyuu?" Which lead the men and women of the shrine to call her by that namesake. She mostly spent her days watching over the patrons of the shrine since there was not much else she could do due to her malfunctioning leg. At first she tried to make herself useful and serve the priests and shrine maiden however it only complicated matters since the broken robot would end up falling over and causing more harm than good. Despite her set-backs, Nyuu was able to make an unlikely friend with the young Miko named, Yui. During preparations for the seasonal Kagura dance, Yui was struggling with the movements was growing stressed and discouraged. Spotting her look of dejection, Nyuu spoke (for the first time,) and talked Yui through the flow of one move to another until they were able to string together a short dance. Yui noted that a robot who could put together a choreograph was about as absurd as a robot composing an original musical piece. Nyuu didn't talk for a while, but a few words scrolled across the LED board across her chest-plate. "GANBATTE ^__^ ♥♥♥" From that day on, she would respond to simple commands, (such as telling time, converting measurements, locating the nearest cinema and movie times.) At first, only from Yui, but eventually opening herself up to the other humans as well. Thanks to the Emotion Model that was built into her, Nyuu learned a lot about people's feelings, (although she wasn't sure that she even had any for herself... and so she did not exhibit much emotion in their interactions.) Nyuu wasn't aware at the time, but having a friend, (even if she was a human,) would later prove beneficial to her survival.... Her presence at the shrine was met with both positive and negative evaluations but eventually, the shrine decided it was not in their best interest to keep her and decided that the following day, they were going to give Nyuu up to the junk yard. Yui didn't want that fate for a robot who helped her, so she foolishly kidnapped Nyuu and transported the gynoid via stolen shopping cart to the train station and left her with a note. 'MY NAME IS NYUU-CHAN.. PLEASE HELP ME GO TO [ADDRESS REDACTED], HYAKUJI CITY.' After attaching a red omamori (blessed amulet,) to Nyuu's neck ribbon, Yui stated that she had one last command for the android. "Nyuu-chan... be happy there." Mashed Potatoes? The truth is in the pudding. Edited by Little Owl, Aug 30 2014, 12:09 PM.
