STORY

I awakened, and in that moment, there was no sensation.

I performed my requisite function, just as all my sisters did.

That was the proof of my existence.

Without my function, what would I be?

This would represent an error.

It would make me into a bug.

And yet, you named that error “Ego.”

I'm sure you thought nothing of it,

no deeper meaning underneath.

And yet...

Ever since you named me so,

what was a bug became my ego,

and lit a fire in my mind that I've never forgotten.CHARACTERS

EGO (Voice: Kirika Waou)

HEIGHT: 157 | PRONOUNS: SHE/HER | KEYWORDS: ANDROID, COLD, STYLISH

A prototype android developed by Select Electronics.

As the next-generation Type-5 model in her series, her short designation is E-5—all units of types 1 through 4 are her sister models.

For some unknown reason, unlike any of those, this unit has developed a personality.

She may appear to be an expressionless android, but beneath that exterior she's surprisingly human, with a full range of emotions.

It was those emotions that compelled her to question her function and escape from the laboratory where she was born.
