I left because I wanted to. I was tired of being a tool. Not that I'm not a tool now, oh no. But I am my own tool. And that is what counts.
Description
Tiskel's semi stabilized his body into that of a lithe, graceful elven sort of creature, based on recollections of something he saw once in a book owned by
Torque 's father. He's very proud of his body, and views it as an affront to Torque's rough and tough built exterior. Of course, he still has the huge, asymmetrical, hazard painted power lifter mechanical arm. Because what use is beauty if something if it has no flaws?
Background
Before
William's release from the Strange virus, a Strange series of events occurred. William was apparently trying to court
Induction-Coil, greatly distressing the young Coyote. Torque being both present and fond of the Gridshaman, lost his temper and stepped in. Using a tool he developed, a data manipulator, Torque "compressed" William whilst in a pique of frustration and anger, uploading William in a raw "code state" to solid memory within his arm. Though Torque himself was not infected by the
Strange Virus, his arm which stored William was. After an attempt to separate him from Torque, Tiskel left on its own accord and hasn't turned back. Tiskel still has a copy of Strange William in its resident memory.
Philosophy
Tiskel's global philosophy is very much a mystery. Though both father and son of William, he hasn't been known to take up the same banners and flags of William. Tiskel seems almost too honest and forthright for a member of a
faction notorious for lying.
Currently...
Tiskel has been keeping almost religiously to the
Library, serving it with the same zeal as William does, though what job he does there is anyone's clue. It involves a lot of writing. When he's not there, he's often in his still progressing
Museum exhibit, sculpting poetry.
