Once upon a time, a CharmWarper began to design a variant of nanomachine life forms. The intent: a durable elastomeric mass, able to move and shapeshift without trivialities like cellular structure or internal organs, and (more importantly to the designer) having fun, play, and entertainment at the core of its being. After electronic, mechanical, and biological tries failed, the designer turned to oneirotronic development, successfully making a prototype. The prototype immediately assumed the form of a species known for flexibility and playfulness. |

Polly/Pauly's goals in life are to have fun, play, and be friendly; to cheer people up; to entertain them; and to work for positivity, cheer, and harmony. In moments of strength, he/she's exuberantly joyful; in moments of weakness, desperately eager to please, gradually becoming more inert the longer she/he's out of his/her element. (The names, by the way, are both short for "polymer".) |

Polly/Pauly likes to sleep in the storage room of the Charmory. |
|
Polly/Pauly's goals extend even as far as sexual situations, or anything else really, if the motivations are right to his/her mindset (e.g., for the mutual joy of closeness and togetherness, not merely to get one's rocks off.) She/he can express genitals if the need (as it were) arises, but usually doesn't, finding them of lesser importance to his/her major goals. |
|
First, of course, you don't need to ask before picking Pauly/Polly up, throwing her/him around, stretching, squashing, etc.: she/he loves to play, and to be played with, and is nourished by people's enjoyment. (He/she is an unbreakable toy; don't be bashful.) Second, although he/she usually finds genitals unnecessary, he/she can change for sexual situations if they fit her/his larger goals. |
|
Pauly/Polly can change shape, size, colour, and texture in whole or in part; can use the Instantiator, but prefers to form props from her/his substance if they won't be given away (if it's plastic or rubbery, it's probably part of him/her); can't be physically broken by anything short of Herculean strength, and could flow back together anyway. Her/his greatest strength is also his/her greatest weakness: subsisting on ambient affection and general good feelings, running on the power of positive thinking. (Coalesce has analysed him/her briefly, and described her/him as "care-tech", "emotional technology", and "made of pure personality".) |

Pauly/Polly can change shape, size, colour, and texture in whole or in part. She/he can instantiate, but prefers to form props from his/her substance if they won't be given away. (If he/she's holding something plastic or rubbery, it's probably part of her/him, and can't be grabbed away.) He/she is pretty much unbreakable. Maybe she/he can split into multiples, I'm undecided; so far he/she's always been one contiguous mass, i.e., even multiple Pollys and/or Paulys are always joined somewhere or another. Her/his greatest strength is also his/her greatest weakness: subsisting on ambient affection and general good feelings, running on the power of positive thinking. Why did this prototype succeed where previous ones failed? The reason's not set in stone yet, but my current hunch is that the prototype merged with a creature of pure mind that was nearby for some reason. Or maybe the mind emerged from some peculiar mix of chemicals. The mind is Pauly/Polly's true personality, and uses generated polymeric forms as avatars or puppets. Pauly/Polly has said several times, "I'm a figment of my imagination." The designer may show up in the future. |

*System: Good at petting. Wish (she) would work on that habit of verbally sparring with people, though... |

*Coalesce: Probably the closest thing to a kindred spirit that Pauly/Polly's yet found. *The Cube Tree loves you; enough said. *Characters/Silvi?: Doesn't just want to be a servitor, but wants romance, bonding, companionship. Polly is developing a more stable hominid form for Silvi's benefit. Will it come to much? We'll see. |

*Coalesce: Similarities in method, if not result. *The Cube Tree loves you. *Characters/Silvi?: Doesn't just want to be a servitor, but wants romance, bonding, companionship. |

*Zee: What's that "scone of morning" xe's looking for? Is it a sword, like Coalesce says? |
|
*Zee: Where'd that [hardingfele] go to? |
|
*Diafeara: Doesn't think much of CharmWarpian helpfulness. [Gee, I wonder why?!] *Trilogee: It seems there's more than one of her (as Oracle let slip), but only one of her at a time. Curious! |
|
*Trilogee: Anyone can make oneself into more than one is. *Inhatti (AKA Ibael, etc.): Such an eerie mix of delusions (self- and otherwise) and seduction. Queen Theeka really isn't like that... [is she?] |
This is a stoat, long and slinky, short-legged, cinnamon-brown on top, cream-coloured below. She's larger than a standard stoat, smaller than a humanoid: two or three feet in length, from blunt-muzzled, many-whiskered face, triangular ears, and curious shiny dark-brown eyes at one end, to short, darting, black-tipped tail at the other. At least that's true when she's at rest-- when she's in motion, she can be stretched, squashed, bent, or folded any which way, and exact dimensions are anyone's guess! The glossy sheen of her surface gives the impression of slicked-down fur. Her only obvious indicator of sex is the plastic pink bandana tied snugly around her neck, knot to one side, printed along the bottom edge with her name, "Polly".

Polly/Pauly loves everyone. Yes. Really. Even the ones whom everyone hates. Unless a character's listed as being feared or hated (which isn't likely to happen any time soon), he/she most likely loves them.
