Ether Companion: Perdix
Companion Control Level (1 = Proficient, 5 = Inexperienced): 4
Companion Description: Perdix is an engineered organism that feeds on Ether and converts it to glucose for itself as well as a host that it merges with. As such, Perdix provides a meager amount of nourishment that allows its host to go without food for a longer period of time. When Perdix fuses with a human, the two are linked physically and mentally; the human can sense Perdix’s thoughts and emotions as well as feel a fraction of any pain Perdix experiences. Perdix also saps some of Ether from its host, facilitating the Ether-Glucose conversion while boosting its strength. Because Perdix and its host are fused at the cellular level, separating them would require separation cell by cell, or dismembering the host just above where Perdix is connected.
Perdix can act independently of its host, but it is trained to respond to its host’s thoughts in milliseconds, moving as if it’s a part of the host. Because of its molecular composition, it can stretch and compact itself like putty, able to take on a variety of different shapes while having the structural strength of carbon fibre. These characteristics allow Bixxa to move faster than a healthy human adult with little physical training. Thanks to Perdix, Bixxa also possesses great arm and leg strength with limbs that can morph into any shape she desires. Perdix is resistant to moisture and high heat, but it becomes sluggish in cold weather, vulnerable to snap freezing, and it conducts electricity rather well.
Even though Perdix has its own thoughts and feelings, it has the mental capacity of a domesticated dog, communicating its desires to its host through mental synapses that travel to the hosts brain. It wants little more than to consume Ether, but it's been developed to have a sense of loyalty and companionship to its owner. Perdix can detect vibrations in the air, but it can't interpret sound or language, which is why its user must communicate with emotions rather than words. That doesn't stop Bixxa from speaking Perdix, but she always supplies her words with a little emotional cue from her mind.
If the host sustains physical damage, Perdix can cover the wound to prevent bleeding and infection, but the host's body is responsible for healing itself. Should Perdix be separated from its host, both individuals will notice a lack in energy. The user will take longer to cope, maybe even suffering fatigue as their body normalizes its glucose levels. Perdix will reinitialize full Ether absorption from the air around it, but it becomes mostly immobile, spending the glucose it makes to absorb more Ether.
Companion Spells/Abilities:
• Daddy long legs: Large appendages sprout from Perdix, useful for navigating uneven terrain or lending a couple more hands, able to change shape for different uses
• Wing suit: Perdix stretches into a thin membrane across Bixxa's arms and legs, allowing her to glide from rooftop to ground
Personality: Having lived several years on her own, Bixxa learned to be emotionally resilient and hardy. However, she struggles with the occasional loneliness from the lack of human connection. That’s why she views Perdix as a close friend, often talking to it as she would talk to a person. She tends to do it in front of people without realizing it, leading many to believe she’s either on drugs or completely insane. At this point she just says she thinks out loud whenever someone raises a question.
Banjee has a looser moral compass than most citizens, opting to scavenge for what she needs or just steal it if it’s easily replaceable, although, she sometimes finds herself taking something anyway if she absolutely must have it. She likes to blame Perdix for her spurs of compulsive behavior. Despite her meager lifestyle, she likes to keep a positive outlook in the grand scheme of things. Her nerves are not to be tested, but her friendliness is matched by her immense modesty. Unfortunately, her body and her lifestyle prevents her from making many friends, if any.
If there’s anything Bixxa likes, it’s climbing to the highest point she can find and looking down at the world below. When the chance permits, she also likes to glide as long as she can, imagining that she has angel wings. The best way to get on her bad side is to act obnoxious or self-conceited. Expect something valuable of yours to suddenly end up trashed or missing if you annoy her.
Back Story: Bixxa came from a simple village family that worked the fields for money and food. Her childhood was fairly uneventful until a massive tornado touched down, destroying everything in its path. She stayed in her house with her parents, but the tornado blew the building apart, causing it to collapse on all 3 of them. Bixxa was the only survivor, but she suffered a concussion, sending her into a coma. Her limbs were also shattered and mangled in broken forms. Next thing she knew, she was on a medical bed in a laboratory and she couldn’t feel her limbs.
She was horrified to see that her arms and legs were as black as night, not even realizing that the blackness had taken over both her upper and lower body. As Bixxa screamed, her arms flailed wildly around her, changing shape as if they were made of ink. Once her current situation began to sink in, she tried getting back home. She struggled to get off the bed, not even able to stand on her new legs. Bixxa crawled on her bare stomach until she came across a scientist. The scientist was quick to console the crying mess of a girl, explaining that she was unconscious for a long time and he had been taking care of her. He continued to explain what had happened after he carried the girl back to the lab. Bixxa couldn’t believe what she was hearing. Hearing of her family’s death and the village’s destruction brought only more tears, but somewhere in her heart, she was happy she survived.
The next few weeks were rough as Bixxa got used to her new body and the powers they granted. Getting accustomed to the strange feelings in her head took the longest time, but eventually she wielded Perdix as if it were an extension of herself. The scientist was very pleased to find that his experiment was working successfully. He raised Bixxa as if she was his own, but one afternoon, he went off to the city to get some supplies. Hours passed, but he never returned home. While waiting for the researcher to return, she heard faint noises on the ground floor above her. When she investigated, Bixxa found a raging fire that looked like it came from the windows. Bixxa escaped the house in time before it burned to the ground. And yet the scientist was still nowhere to be seen.
Bixxa travelled to the city where her scientist went, but after days of searching followed by nights of sleeping in the alleys, she couldn’t find a single trace. Getting desperately hungry, she used Perdix to steal some fruit from a vendor. It was at that point she saw how much freedom she had, and how exhilarating it was to run through the streets, avoiding the law. She resolved to hang around the city a little longer, stealing more food and exploring the area. By the time she left, the local authorities were on 24/7 patrol for a little girl with black hair and bandaged arms and legs. Bixxa took on a new moniker “Banjee”, and assumed the life of an urban nomad, exploring the world while taking what she needed.
