Data Storing Collective

A collection of alien particles currently jumbled up inside an incompatible human body.Note: This Carrd is under constant reconstruction as we learn about ourselves.

DSC - S/2015 E2

What Are You?

We (our system in this body) is part of a greater collective known as the Data Storing Collective shortened to DSC or simply 'The Collective', and we will return to the subsection S/2015 E2, which orbits the Earth upon this body's expiry.The explanation on what the DSC is elaborated on the next section.The term 'we' can be both used for our system collective within this body, or also used to refer to our greater collective, though usually when it is the latter, the collective pronouns become capitalised as 'We' or 'Us'.This is not a spiritual belief, nor psychological. This is a neurological truth and very real fact for us. If others choose to believe us or not, when we are aware of the lack of evidence we can provide, is up to them.

Interpretations

As We have been in orbit since around the birth of humanity on Earth, We have been perceived many times and interpreted to be many different things. Primarily We have been interpreted as spiritual experiences, meaning humans would assign Us names and images, call Us demons, angels, gods, spirits etc, though in more modern times this can also include seeing Us as alien.. just their image of Us is often rather inaccurate.As each engagement was unique to the individual, there's rarely any continual theme, and it's likely impossible to tell between when someone is actually communicating with Us, their imagination, or communicating with something else.

How Do You Function?
The DSC as one could expect, is an alien lifeform who's function is to collect and store information.
The structure is made up out of a unique type of particle to the lifeform - these particles function similarly to brain neurons, with signals able to transmit between one another to transfer information and manipulate what's stored within each particle. The entire 'body' is the 'brain'. As a free floating web of trillions of particles, invisible to the human eye, able to reform and restructure it's self freely.Due to the DSC's large size (solar system or larger) and to more effectively collect information, parts of the structure are split off temporarily to record the processes and history of anything it comes across.
A DSP (Data Storing Part) will be sent off with the programming to return back to the main body when it's work is done. Each DSP that sections off however is also able to divide it's self up to the same ends, creating sometimes very long lines of divisions. When they are in orbit of a planet to act as a hub, they are known as a DSS (Data Storing Satellite).
How Long have you Been Here?
The DSS in orbit of Earth is known as S/2015 E2, which arrived some time in the last 10,000 years (relatively recently in terms of Earth's history). It is roughly the size of half of the planet.
Why Are You Collecting Information?
Because it is our programming to do so. There is no end goal, and no grand meaning.
Why does life exist, and want to exist? There is no end goal to procreation. It is simply what is done to ensure it's survival, and perhaps at one point very early on, gathering that information kept our species alive. But now it is a redundant process, as we are so well hidden from threats it is simply a process that continues to run endlessly.
How Long Has the Collective Existed?
We do not know, but a very long time. We did not form during the Big Bang, but our guess is some time during the matter-dominated era where the soup of particles was more accommodating to our evolution.
Are There any Threats?
The only one we are aware of are black holes, which can destroy our particles. However we also aim to avoid human detection as it would affect our recording process.

Rejiel

Name: Rejiel Thundercall
Titles: Thunder's Punishment, Storm's Judgement, Thunder Serpent
Species: Tarnished Angel / Alien
Symbolic Species: Dragon
Age: 3000+ Years
Gender: Currently Male
Colours: Silver, Slate Grey, Pale Blue, Low Saturation Purple

Frequent Roles: Imprisonment/Isolation, Soldier, Manifestation of Retribution, Memory Holder

When Reiji fractured into two halves; Reiji and Rejiel, the distinction between the two may appear obvious. One being a demon, and one being an angel, but the reality is more nuanced than this. While Reiji is a demon by all accounts of the word, Rejiel is not entirely an angel, but a tainted angel. Not quite a demon, not quite an angel. He is a point of identity confusion, the only certainty being to serve The Collective.
Fully aware of the chains that bind him, it's neither a point of pride nor one of shame for him. Rather the price that has to be paid for the security of his position.
When Reiji became unable to accept his angelic past, nor his angelic future, Rejiel split off from him. Though similar, there are many differences and subtleties in how they each approach things and present.Reiji has large bat wings, Rejiel has grey feathered wings. While Reiji presents in black robes, Rejiel prefers to always wear his silver armour that covers his entire body. Often obscuring his face as well.
The dragon-motifs don't end there, as his feral form is also draconic; a large silver dragon with large forward facing horns. Everything about Rejiel is designed for combat, a locked down defensive shell, wielding his silver spear.
Rejiel is also rather more reserved than Reiji in temperament as well, but when angered is easily on par with Reiji - though he tends to be more unstable, erratic and loses complete control over himself, unlike Reiji who has mastered control over his own anger. Rejiel is unable to properly control himself when he breaks.Note: Rejiel is still new, and still discovering himself. Connections and understandings are still being made in this time of turbulence. So the following are listed only as considerations, and may be changed later.Incarnations are distinct in that they rarely have a dynamic with the Doves.

Reiji, the current host of the system. Having taken over completely at the Dove's request he is adored by them who would do anything and everything for him at his request. However, Reiji takes his role of manager of the system very seriously, and will rarely ever ask anything of them, often to the point of overworking himself.His personality is tailored to the environment he communicates in, ultimately accepting that there is no way he can follow a path he's more used to - one of oppression and ruthless subrogation of others. Instead he has decided to follow the path the Doves have set out for him, and fully dedicate himself to it, this does however on occasion clash with his natural tendency for aggression and losing his temper.Reiji adores the Doves just as they adore him, yet is very reserved in expressing it in public. Generally he keeps his tender emotions close to his chest, and rarely expresses affection for anyone besides the Doves.Reiji tends to naturally looks down on all others, but rarely lets this be known. For Reiji this is simply the reality, and not intended as an insult, and knows attempting to explain this will likely backfire (for the very reason he looks down on them for.) He understands that he can never be understood by others while having a far better grasp on others than they often even have over themselves.While content he enjoys being comedic, making others laugh and basking in the attention. Despite his initial intimidating demeanour, he has softened over the years in this life to become rather the comedian and values having fun with others.It's possible that the majority of Reiji's aggression ended up forming Sordis - a dormant alter, and what Reiji is what was left over to better interact with human society.═══════════════════════════

Koru

Full Name: Koru StormfeatherPsychological Species: Dragon, Kaiju
Symbolic Species: Dove

Emotion: Love
Directive: Healing | Comfort
Theme: Shy Innocence
Frequent Roles: Regulator, Vessel of Will, Healer, 'Haunting', Unlimited Power

Koru, the youngest (in presentation) in the system is also the most shy, often hiding behind Reiji he's often influencing decisions non-verbally and enjoying watching Reiji following a path that allows him to enjoy life through his interactions with it.
Koru has a very accepting yet pure outlook on life, without a second thought will understand the brutalities of life and be unbothered by it, yet if it comes after him personally will be utterly distraught.
Mentally immature, he is unable to age, and stuck at a point of wonder of the world. Boundless curiosity and an open love of life's 'monsters'. Everyone can be happy, everyone can smile, he has an endless love for everyone and everything, the few times he holds back this affection is when Reiji has firmly instructed him to.When Reiji feels like the world is seeing him as a monster, Koru is there to hug his snarling teeth and remind him he loves him for how he is. Despite Koru's innocent appearance, his wonder is equally for the morbid, and will happily watch Reiji murdering those who have harmed him without seeing any issue.
Koru is also able to enter shifts that are less stable. During which he loses understanding of what keeps the living 'alive', entering a state of joy at the foundations of life - aka blood, organs and exploding bodies into a million pieces. This is most clearly seen in the past as Flandre.
Koru is technically more powerful than Reiji in the system, often described by Reiji as a "Nuclear power reactor" he is able to completely overwhelm him and remove him from front at whim and suppress, erase or create anything he wants. He can fabricate or erase memories completely, rewrite the direction the entire system will go down and more.However Koru actually using any of his abilities is incredibly rare, and usually a reaction to other outside causes.
While he is stronger than Reiji, this power is short lived and not focused enough to be any kind of long term threat to Reiji's control over the system. Koru also doesn't 'want' to be in control of the system, and can at times become distraught at his own power.

Species: Human w/ Non-Human Influence

Age: 16
Gender: Male
Orientation: Pansexual Demiromantic
Colours: White, Sky Blue, Sea Blue
Elements: Ice & Cold
Layer: The Physical
Emotion: Fear
Directive: Connection | Isolation
aka 'Manages outside world interactions'
Theme: Defector Knight
Frequent Roles: Regulator, Guidance, Service, Protector, Mediator
Alexander, the human aspect. However despite this, he is 2nd to Ruko in his connection to the body.
Often quiet, he keeps to himself, often judging the outside world as dangerous or not important to interact with, all that matters to him is keeping Reiji safe, if this means helping to speak to others on his behalf, or cutting contact with others his decisions don't always align with Reiji's. That said, he will rarely ever go against Reiji's instructions, and only act out when he is completely unconcious.
Alexander is one half of the 'Doves', and like Koru retains very little memory of the past after giving it to Reiji to safeguard. Unlike Koru however, Alexander has a complete reluctance to remember anything, even previous times he has fronted, which manifests as a weak sense of self and a very distant approach to life.Under all of this anxiety, he is very loyal, quietly thinks about solutions to problems, caring (towards Reiji) and practical.

Directive: Entertainment
Theme: Stinky Rebel
Frequent Roles: Limit Breaker, Eating everything, Causing general Chaos, Catalyst for Regret, Furry Translator
Ruko, the chaotic furry and odd-ball of the system, he's the most talkative, enjoying commenting on goings on (when he's awake) and teasing Reiji.Though he and Reiji initially got off to a rocky start, they're now both good friends and tentatively see each other as brothers, trying to learn and dunk on each other whenever they get the chance.
Despite relating to the body the most, Ruko is the least frequent fronter. This primarily is due to Reiji's reluctance to offer the body to him, but part of it is also Ruko's reluctance to genuinely want to front (despite claiming a desire to want to.)
Ruko doesn't involve himself in otherkin/fictionkin talks, preferring to identify as his mutant bird fursona.
