Amos

Amos is a unique, prominent member of The Artists' Society.
==Description==
Amos is a creature that appears almost identical to a dollface, albeit with some bizarre features which distinguish them from the species. Their body ends not with legs, but rather two spiral springs, lending them an awkward mechanical gait. Amos moves slowly and with difficulty, the spirals of their "legs" creaking with every movement. They also have small wings on their head, usually concealed behind their hair. Another distinctive feature of Amos is their neck, which is a flexible black ribbon that seems to wrap around their torso. Amos is about 4 feet tall, and usually dressed in simple blue clothing, except for when they need to wear their yellow apron as part of their T.A.S. uniform.
==Abilities==
Despite their innocent appearance, Amos has an unexpectedly rich arsenal of self-defense skills. Their primary weapon is a pocket pistol, which they exhibit proficient and competent use in. Despite the fact that Amos' hands are embroidered with sharp fragments of buttons, which would seemingly handicap their handling of weapons, they nonetheless display an impressive degree of accuracy and rate-of-fire. Although prone to fear (especially of the unknown), Amos never hesitates to protect themselves and those they hold close when the need arises. Amos is also completely omnivorous, able to eat both human food and objects inedible to humans. The substance entering their body simply dissolves and converts into energy to sustain Amos' vitality. This makes them practically invulnerable to hunger and allows them to exist in even the most adverse conditions.
==Personality==
Amos is timid and easily scared or upset. They are quite withdrawn and rarely communicate with anyone in The Artists' Society, except for when someone needs help with work. Even in spite of this, they do not hesitate to express their opinion if they dislike something, and may even become aggressive or straightforward in their statements – though they rarely stand their ground and tend to apologize profusely afterwards, due to having anxiety around pushing others away.
It is very difficult to start a conversation with Amos, as they are paranoid of others' intentions. They also seem to be a perfectionist, as even one mistake in their work can completely demoralize them and possibly lead to a nervous breakdown. 
Regardless of whatever emotion Amos may feel, their outward expression always appears as scared or sad.
==History==
The God of Art sought to "express" himself by embodying part of his inner world on the outside. Thus, he endowed a dollface with free will and an echo of his own divine creativity. However, he had also unknowingly imbued them with some of his own sadness, grief and disappointment. Thus, the creature became a bearer of these negative emotions. Apollo was overcome with great guilt when he realized that his creation was an eternally suffering being, perceiving the world as an incessant threat. In an attempt to rectify this, he temporarily devoted himself to his new creation, attempting to serve as a parental figure. He confided in them and lovingly created art for them. Over time, the fear in the creature's eyes was gradually replaced by trust. This trust was fragile, like the thinnest of flower petals; easily vulnerable, but it nonetheless existed. 
As the creature matured, Apollo alas paid increasingly less attention to them, being overwhelmed with responsibilities and projects. The remoteness of their creator aroused a fear of abandonment in the creature. To cope with this, they immersed themselves in art just like their creator. On one fateful evening, when the creature was seven years old, they danced and sang alone in an empty hall, before everything suddenly became dark. Upon regaining consciousness, the creature realized that a spotlight had fallen on them and destroyed their legs, which were then replaced with springs. 
From then on, the creature lived in fear and paranoia of danger possibly lurking around every corner. Several months later, when the injuries from the previous incident were still yet to fully heal, another tragedy struck. They Who Seek, eager to take possession Apollo's artifacts, had stormed Level 57, taking the life of his lover. This incident was the tipping point for Amos, who now views the world as completely hostile and unforgiving, with little trust for anything or anyone.
 
==Relations==
Apollo: In his presence, Amos feels safe and confident where they are usually timid. Apollo is one of the few beings they do not fear or distrust. They are always willing to sacrifice time assistant him in anything or even have a simple chat. However, due to Apollo's usual isolation and preference for such, actual opportunities to spend more time together are unfortunately incredibly rare.
Polyhymnia: Amos treats her calmly and positively, talking to her in sign language. They admire her and her music. They often try to tell her that one wrong note will not spoil all her wonderful work. Unfortunately, due to Amos' lack of human-like fingers, their sign language capability is considerably limited, sometimes causing misunderstandings to arise.
Hephaestus: Amos consider him to be a very serious person, and thus tends to feel shy or even afraid in his presence. They tend to avoid long conversations with him, but still doesn't mind making small talk.
Nila: Although she is confident and serious, Amos is sad to see her disappointed. They try to cheer her up or make her happier, even in spite of their shyness to do so. This does not always end well, however, which leads to Amos avoiding Nila for a short period until the shame subsides. Regardless, they treat her like an older sister figure.
Corbin: When Corbin was alive, Amos hardly communicated with him, thought they came to regret this when he died, especially after seeing how his death impacted Nila and Apollo. They never had an opportunity to properly say goodbye to Corbin, only watching him die from the sidelines.
They Who Seek: Amos feels a deep resentment and hatred for this group, for killing Corbin above all. They cannot forgive them for hurting Apollo and Nila. Every time they are reminded of how those close to them have suffered because of T.W.S., anger and a desire for revenge engulfs them.
