## Backstory/Origin

In the year 300,758 a group of Irish people went to the far reaches of the known galaxy, and took over an empty planet, kickstarting a planet that was pretty much like if Ireland were an entire planet. This planet went along just fine, and survived well enough as business started to develop, and a scientist named Camille McCarthy invented digital companions, which were essentially custom built humans. This business became very profitable, and her business was passed down in the family, as they continued to build and package these digital companions to be sold off to the person who wanted one. Eventually they wound up getting an order wrong, and this order was Kelly Halsey, so, they did the first thing they came up with- put him up for sale to the highest bidder. He was eventually stolen from the auction house before he could be packaged to be sold by an older man, who instantly took Kelly away from that planet, and showed him to the group he was a part of, and Kelly was accepted readily within the group, and soon became an engineer with the person he grew to consider his brother, Luke. Eventually, Kelly decided he wanted to go explore, so he created the T-SAM with help from Luke and a few others, installed it onto his ship with a lot of work, and set off.

## Personality and Qualifications

### Personality

He is highly creative, and often comes up with lots of ideas, but oftentimes he has trouble sticking to one idea, coming up with one thing after another with very little time in between. He is also very bright, able to adapt to new knowledge and information quickly, and will take in everything that he can with relative excitement, revelling in knowledge. He is also highly intimidated by certain people, with very little explanation- it’s just sort of random who he gets scared of, and around most other people, he’s just fine. He is also great at speaking to people, and doesn’t suffer much from stage fright.

### Strengths

Firstly, he is very intelligent, with an expansive amount of knowledge, ranging from random tidbits of carpentry skill to his expansive knowledge of the Irish Kingdom, he has a lot of knowledge to pull from. Secondly, he is very adaptable, able to learn new locations and blend in well with high levels of efficiency, as well as generally being able to pick up new information quickly. He is also generally skilled mechanically, and is handy with tools, able to figure out technical difficulties with little effort. He also holds his alcohol extremely well, with almost inhuman tolerance for alcohol. He also is somewhat talented at knitting, as well as coding and making 3d models and digital art.

### Weaknesses

He is not physically the strongest, relying on his abilities to use technique and equipment to beat foes, and thus, is not very strong, able to be beaten nine times out of ten in a fist fight. He is also easily scared of some people, and those people pretty much can’t get him to do anything except run from them. He also is easily tricked with sedatives and other forms of knockout drugs, as he can’t seem to smell those, and when faced with food containing sedatives, he won’t ever notice until it’s too late.

## Equipment

E-BPC (Explosive Barometric Pressure Converter): This weapon takes the form of a smallish gun, about 10 inches long. It has a single brass barometer on the left side of it. The E-BPC transfers energy from air pressure into an explosive shot, and at normal levels of gravity (standard Earth gravity), it works at an effectiveness that is a bit stronger than a standard bullet, while on the moon, it would be nearly useless, or when deep underwater, it would let out explosions comparable to a propane tank blowing up.

HACTU (Hook and Claw Transit Unit): This is similar to a grappling hook, but it is powered by an internal generator which causes the claw to shoot out at speeds exceeding 200 mph, and stick into most surfaces (albeit a few exceptions, which include highly dense/strong metals). It is also an effective weapon, as if it were to attach to a human, it would deal surface level damage, and allow the user to pull themselves towards the target.

Chronological-Dimensional Plasmic Shifter: This is what allows not only Kelly, but his ship, to shift through time and space. It takes the form of a tube, which is implanted into Kelly’s ship, and it emits a light blue glow. It essentially allows Kelly, his ship, and anyone on his ship, to go through time by shifting into a 6th state of matter, flowing freely through time as well as space, and the CDPS allows those particles to be directed, moving at a speed so impossibly fast that it seems instantaneous.

Brewing Accelerator: This is a machine that allows Kelly to put a combination of different ingredients into a small cube, and the machine turns it almost instantaneously into alcohol, and it allows him to select the specifics from a small pull-out screen on the side. The machine’s appearance is similar to a normal cube, but once alcohol is made, a small shot glass with the alcohol will pop out of a container on the side.

## Other Powers and Information

### Powers

Agelessness: Being that he is a digital companion, he does not age, and will appear to be 16-18 throughout the entirety of his life. This also means he will not die of age, though he can die from other causes normally.

### Other Information

* He is bisexual
* He is a legal priest in the Church of Clover
