## Appearances

### Appears in

Facility.exe (OC LORE)

Aris Seral is a go with the flow alt girl living her life to the fullest in Emera. She is a member of the "Shack Gang,' and caretaker of the Memz Malware Beast.

## **Personality**

Aris is very outgoing and extroverted. She isn't afraid to push people out of their comfort zones if it means having a bit of fun. She can party until the sun drops and rises once again and not feel tired!

But this doesn't mean she's clueless of serious situations. She's numb to the topic of death and trauma, and is open to let others vent to her if it means they feel better letting it all out.

She also falls for people too easily. With past love struggles and also just her Poly sexuality, she's always looking for a potential partner in odd places. And when she falls, she falls HARD. She's the pinnacle of the "Me when a bad bitch tells me to do something" meme.

## **Before Fairy Rifts**

Aris is one of many employees working for the OFFIZ Industry's secret below the surface project that looks to bring computer malware to the living world, and make them live amongst humans in harmony. She is the test subject to the Anti-Virus experiment/s

### **Before the Experiment**

Aris was not like she is now back then. She was very depressed and unamused at life and what it held for her. That's why she joined the Facility project. She didn't have much else in life so she just took what she could as long as it gave free food and shelter. Her family life wasn't the greatest, and with that took a bad toll.

The Anti-Virus experiment was in need of a subject willing to take the risk of potential harm or death from the project if it doesn't properly end the way theorized. Aris had nothing to risk, so she took the shot for the facility. Probably her best decision.

### **The Anti Virus Experiment**

The Anti-Virus Experiment was one into which a willing participant would be injected with the facility's Anti-Virus serum to see if it made those affected immune to Malware Beast effects and "Payloads." Aris was a willing subject to this experiment, taking the risk of potentially dying if the serum did not do what it was hypothesized.

She was given the Anti-Virus, and after a week of side effects wearing off, she was place in front of the Memz malware. The theory was if the Anti-Virus was a success, Aris would be able to touch Memz and not immediately die as a consequence... And it surprisingly worked! Aris was now immune to all Malware "Payloads!"

The facility assigned her as caretaker for Memz after the fact, and with that, grew the bond of the duo.. Even making Aris show a more freaky and random XD side to the world. Hense the Scene-esc getup.

### Relationship Struggles

Aris is a very openly flirty type. Its not a shocker finding her gawk over a specific worker one day and another by the next week. She IS poly/bi, so everyone is game for her! Buuut there seems to be a reoccurring issue every time she DOES get a new partner

Memz is a easy to envy malware. Seeing his one best friend with someone else for long intervals causes a mass of jealousy. And by the end of the week, the partner is either dead or breaking up with Aris due to the Malware's antics.

She's lost around 7 partners from this. And is on a last straw with Memz on it. She tries to fill that void of loss with new friends/lovers. It ain't healthy, but she masks her true feelings under the positivity.

## Role in Fairy Rifts (History)

Aris is brought here in an... odd circumstance.. in a complete replica of the facility she works at, yet its disgusting and abandoned.. She still decides to reside in it alongside Memz and the other Malware Beasts still alive, as what else can you do? Memz was allowed to scavenge the supposed outdoors to give Aris supplies to survive as the facility wasn't that well cared for. It was when Memz left for weeks on end before going back in a saddened state did Aris decide to scope the spot he was taking her to, wanting to help the situation his new friends were apparently in.

### **Meeting "Shack Gang"**

After wandering through the forests, she eventually stumbled upon an abandoned shack of some kind. Only thing left in it being a Fredbear suit (With the spirits of Cassidy and Andrew residing inside) and a fucked up chicken by the name of Chicharron. She watched the Chicken and the Bear fight for a few minutes before finally noticing two actual individuals arriving to the shack spot. Neon Red and Henry Emily. It was an immediate attraction to Red by Aris the moment she saw her, failing horribly at a first impression before just asking the two if they needed help moving their stuff to their new residency. The duo complied, and Aris officially joined the misfits! Aaaand Memz knows immediately Aris is just doing this to hit that...

### **Taking Charge**

Taking a few days to reside in the Shack Manor, Aris was starting to get used to the place and its odd members. But also got a taste of what was to come of the chaos.

Evan Afton and Charlie Emily are then kidnapped by former Lieutenant Lint Dyne as a way to shill out his plans to destroy the Regret Cafe and get Red to give herself up. As response, Red, alongside Cassidy/Andrew, trade themselves over to Lint, and leave the SG leaderless once Sage Harpuia is also taken. An argument breaks out, and Aris is attacked by Jeremy, ripping one of her piercings out in the scuffle. She just takes it as a flesh wound and moves on, but is actually able to bring peace to the gang as some members head out to save their stolen allies.

Aris learns first about Red's death and betrayal once the mission ends in somewhat of a success. She isn't phased much, but feels the shame of the group from the loss and backstabbing. She breaks up a fight between Harpuia and Jeremy about mentioning Red publically, and has to decide she needs to step up her game to keep the place as Red would've wanted.

### **Child's Play, the Fairy Rifts Cut**

Aris is also caught in-between the scuffle of Charlie and the 3 living dolls the girl finds in her room. Fighting off the Chucky doll the first time it comes around, but not without getting stabbed in the shin while fighting the murder baby away. She throws him and his child Glen/Glenda out, and tends to Charlie's bloody room.

The dolls eventually come back, specifically Glenda and Tiffany, and kill Charlie while nobody notices. This ends in a horrible breakout of chaos with police breaking into the manor and destroying the place. Aris agrees to rightfully sue the cops when the time comes, and cleans the room once again, only to find the Tiffany doll left behind. She decides to keep it as evidence and to interrogate it.

BUUUT this is also the time Red comes back! She's alive and coping!!! Aris is caught off guard and flustered by the return as they have small talk, Aris being a dumbass, shows the Tiffany doll to Red and discuss its.. odd looks. Aris leaves to her own room when it starts getting awkward

She throws the doll to her bed and relishes in how stupid she behaved around Red. Memz rolling his eyes as the topic brings Tiffany to life. Aris lets the doll speak, only to trap her once she started requesting a new body, and suggesting Red's looks to be quite catching.

Memz uses this to prove his point that Aris is just a try hard simp. She argues with the beast about her love life being fucked over by him and with that drives the Malware off, also letting Tiffany go unintentionally in the process... She doesn't let this down.

### **The 2nd Anti-Virus Experiment**

Finally getting up and facing the consequences, Aris talks with Red about leading a killer doll after her, ignoring the 3 new people Red has also brought in to join the group. But one of the members, Amber, focuses on the still upset Memz and has a freakout internally.

Malware and Robots don't mix, so Amber asks Aris if there's any way to keep her safe. Aris suggests the Anti-Virus, but is yet to know if it works on Robots. Amber immediately goes to obtain Anti-Virus from the abandoned lab.

When Amber returns, she admits to stealing the serum from the Melissa beast. Aris knows this will come back to bite her in the ass in the future but does NOT want to worry about it rn

### Puppeteer Conflict

As she is getting more involved with the Shack Gang, it also means shes more involved with the conflicts that come with it. Going out one day, she finds Charlie getting attacked by The Puppeteer, and rightfully goes to defend the child from this abuser. She somehow WINS the first fight and chases Puppeteer off.

This will not be the last, however, as trying to deal with him a second time, the Puppeteer takes her under his control. giving her unknown abilities alongside it

### A Potential Relationship

She wakes up at the Manor after this tussle. a bit dazed and confused as what happened. but goes downstairs like nothing was wrong. Red immediately notices her different behavior and the two go out to the porch to discuss it

The conversation never leads anywhere on the lines of Aris' scuffs however, as Red points out that she already knows Aris has a thing for her. Aris asks if that means they COULD be a thing, but it seems they still need a bit more time with one another to be sure. But Red does give Aris a thank you for her work in the Manor with a kiss. This is ironically when Aris learns she now has Manipulation of Electricity now as a power
