Nimsesku

Nimsesku is the cybernetic easter-egg hamster that appears in several places inside the House of Eternal Return exhibit, as well at at least once in Convergence Station. Children visiting the exhibit are told to find 12, after which they can bring photos to the front desk for a small prize, though there are a total of 24 incarnations.

## Biography

Nimsesku was originally the pet hamster of Piper Pastore and Lucius Selig. He first died late one evening in 1987, to the dismay of Piper and Lucius. Their father, Emerson Selig, attempted to resurrect Nimsesku by using The Transducer to recall his vital sonic essence into his body. The Frequency Dilator fed Nimsesku’s recorded resonant frequency into The Transducer, creating a sonic vacuum around the critter that the multiverse sought to fill. Although complications occurred with the experiment, Nimsesku was revived. The only difference was the lack of a black spot on his back.

This was due to the nature of Nimsesku’s resurrection. He was not regaining life, but rather the multiversal infinitude of Nimsesku was funneled into this one being, so even though he’s died several times, Nimsesku has been constantly reanimated with slight cosmetic variations for over 40 years, succeeding into the lives of Piper’s kids, Lex and Morgan.

Under the instruction of Lucius and motivated by his fear of growing up and losing Morgan, Lex attempted multiple experiments on Nimsesku, which can be read about in the journal on his desk. These experiments upset Morgan, and she tried to get their parents to stop Lex, but they didn’t listen. Nimsesku is fine, of course.

At an unspecified time while the family was away, The Charter put cybernetic machinery, including a camera and transciever, into Nimsesku. This type of manipulation wasn’t uncommon for The Charter, who once accidentally enlisted an entire clan of subway rats and terrorized a bystander. Nimsesku was their loyal spy until he disappeared in the chaos of March 17th, spread across the shattered and intersecting multiverse.

”Come home, Nimsesku. We miss you. You’re also carrying proprietary equipment and we want it back.” -The Charter

## Connection to the continuity

Nimsesku is one of the elements that ties together Omega Mart and HOER, proving that these two storys are connected. There is a drawing of two hamsters (possibly multiverse iterations of Nimsesku) in the 7 monolith village location inside of OmegaMart shown drinking from the source.
