**Ballonz Charlie Orb** is the Psychanic CEO of the Orbital Corporation (Orbital) in Mainlore, and the Psychanic son of Dr. Orb. He is one of the few Psychanics activated with a Type V AI level, featuring a **fully identical human intelligence level**. Ballonz is also the only Psychanic above Type III to take role in Orbital executive affairs.

Ballonz's room for growth and learning separates him from other Psychanics in the world, over 18 years growing (mentally, and sometimes physically) from a young child, to a vexatious teenager, and to a well-mannered adult, businessman, and scientist.

## Background

### Creation

The development of Ballonz began in 2001 with the production of an new iteration of the **PsyCore**. For comparison, Eliza Orb (Dr. Orb's Psychanic wife), although sentient, had an AI level equivalent to a Type III Psychanic. This 21st century PsyCore was labaled under a **Type V AI level**, capable of human-level complex thought and machine learning.

On **July 1, 2002**, Ballonz was activated for the first time. Dr. Orb took a liking to him and adopted him as his own son. Like a child, Ballonz was activated with the mind of one, but his mind would soon grow over the years.

Due to the astronomical resources, time, and money needed to develop a Type IV and V PsyCore, OrbCorp downgraded their services and returned focus to improving their corporate and consumer Psychanics.

## In the Multiverse

Ballonz had secretly known of the Multiverse for years prior to Zoo Man and T.B.C.. Alternate Ballonz's (dubbed "Psy's") frequently visited Mainlore Ballonz, usually paired with an alternate JAFC as well. While Ballonz at the time did not know how such travel was possible, he was aware that other worlds did exist.

Many Ballonz's across the multiverse are based off two stages in his mental development: teen and adult. Teen Ballonzs are mostly rogue outlaws traveling the Multiverse, or their universe did not allow them to transition and become CEO. Adult Ballonzs in the multiverse are more likely to follow the laws of *ANAL* and regulate their involvement in Multiversal affairs.

Ballonz of Mainlore has refused to experiment/research on Multiversal and dimensional phenomena, fearing that any attempt would, as quoted, ***"disintegrate [his] universe until the only known is the unknown."*** Ballonz has taken visits to alternate universes advocating against Multiversal experimentation, especially his "next door neighbor" of FRFR-25566.

## Trivia

* Despite being a Psychanic, Ballonz has his own UUID, which allows him to contact and sync with alternate Ballonz's across the multiverse.

### History

* Ballonz was created after a *Terminator* reference in Psy's skin fell in line with her inclusion in the Fallout of Freddit comic, causing Zoo and later Psy herself to adapt Ballonz into a sentient robot. It wasn't until the conception of OrbCorp as a corporation (May 2016) that Ballonz would retroactively be considered an OrbCorp creation.
* Ballonz was the titular main character of Psy's *Ballonz\_* comic, initially announced for an April 2016 release. Psy never worked on the comic, creating jokes within the comic community. Psy wouldn't go to make a proper first chapter until November 2017, nearly **20** months after its announcement.
* Psy joined Freddit in 2015 under her Reddit username, **Ballonz\_Boy**. As Ballonz was Psy's name at the time, it was used to name her Fallout of Freddit character. In 2019, **Charlie** was added as his secondary name to resemble his newer adult mentality.
