Character Spotlight: Daimos

 





Name: Daimos

Species: Artificial Intelligence.

Age: N/A

Height: 6'9

Titles: Dark Lord, Tyrant of Aetherium, Hearld of Eternal Darkness, Prince of Steel, Grand Marshal of the Forces of Evil.

Birthplace: Aetherium. 

Personality Notes: Daimos is certainly the textbook definition for a villain and he makes no attempts to hide it. He is megalomaniacal and ruthless with a need for control that borders on the pathological. Seen in his cyborg conversion process on Aetherium's people. For a computer program, it appears to like to dress in clothes. Is that a programmed trait or a learned one from the observation of mortals? Something to wonder about. 

It is clear though that Daimos is pure evil and by choice not by programming. His sadism and desire for revenge against Samuel Bailey and Princess Kaguya are far too emotional for any programming to replicate. Combine that with a lust for power and his excessive pride in himself and in machines in general and it is clear that Daimos is 100% sapient. But make no mistake this makes him no less intelligent, the fact he has technology able to counteract and subvert magic is proof of that.

Addendum: Recent events in Monmouth have revealed certain elements in his backstory. It is clear that he has transcended past anything computer science could do alone. 

2nd Addendum: Warning to all resistance cells. Destroy all computers after you do an information wipe, Daimos has the ability to interact with computers regardless if connected to a network or not. External hard drives are not safe. 

Spotlight: Samuel Bailey

Spotlight: Kaguya
