Biography

AT-AT

Weapon of War

Large | Powerful | Destructive

"I heard of these. Imperial armored transports. Giant four-legged things that were used to keep the peace on conquered worlds"

AT-AT (All Terrain Armored Transport) was built by a handful of dragons in the former Windcurrent Clan. Its blueprints were gotten by a time-traveling, universe-jumping Nocturne. Not having all the parts that they needed, technician and scientist Lorcan and Temperance, did their best to build it from what they had. And managed to make a few new pieces to replace the parts they couldn't acquire. When they were finished they had on their hands, a very large war machine. There was no ifs, ands, or buts about it. But, thanks to Lorcan's wiring skills, they had a war machine that was sentient. AT-AT could think and act on its own, and soon started to develop a personality.

At first, AT-AT didn't know what it was. Things were explained to it, but it didn't quite understand. What was a 'machine'? What was 'war?' What was a 'weapon'? It was like AT-AT was a newborn hatchling. It couldn't move around like other dragons, and while it had wings, it was far too heavy to lift off the ground. It didn't understand. But through Lorcan and Temperance, AT-AT slowly learned about the world, and what it was. It understood that it was a powerful weapon, that could hurt many dragons. It didn't want that. It liked being with the Windcurrent clan. And it also liked lounging in the grass, watching things go by. It especially liked butterflies, loving how they moved so freely, and how delicate they were.

However, while AT-AT had this new knowledge, it knew it was something more. When it 'slept', it had visions--it learned later that these were called 'dreams.' It dreamed of terrible violence, blood-red lasers shooting out from its head, as its feet crunched steadily along the ground. It destroyed everything in its path... AT-AT didn't like what it was seeing, and asked Lorcan and Temperance about how it could change this. Temperance reassured AT-AT that dreams were just that--dreams. They seldom come true, and are just figments of an imagination. ...Which somehow AT-AT had one. Was it because of the parts they used while building him? This weapon was becoming more and more sentient...

One night, everything changed. While the clan was experiencing some inner turmoil, AT-AT had let its guard down. While 'sleeping', it was attacked and taken advantage of. Sneaking into the clan under the cover of night, the time-traveling cyborg Corius was attacked by the Chiss cyborg, Sinizad. Corius had AT-AT's actual data in his memory files. Sinizad, a weapon's expert, wanted AT-AT's original programming back. He attacked Corius, and forcefully removed the data files from his core, rendering him useless and tossed him over a cliff, dead. Approaching AT-AT, Sinizad inserted a data prod into AT-AT's own memory core, and forced the upload. Instantly, AT-AT was no longer the machine that admired butterflies. Now, AT-AT was what it originally set out to be--a war machine. Memory wiped, he now belongs to the Executrix Empire.

As a final blow to the Windcurrent Clan, Janto ordered Sinizad to use AT-AT to destroy the clan. And he did--he issued the orders from atop the giant machine, and had its laser raze the entire clan. Houses, buildings, everything that the Windcurrent Clan was...was destroyed. Nothing remained, only charred ground and debris. Despite Temperance's and Lorcan's cries, it ignored them. It was a war machine, why were they acting so close to it? The AT-AT from Windcurrent was gone. All that remained was a war machine, led by weapons expert Sinizad. Any personality from before was gone. He became the war machine that was made somewhere, in some galaxy far far away...

Since coming under control of the Empire, AT-AT had gained some new weaponry in its armament. This included heavy laser cannon turrets (two of of them) on each side of its head, four anti-personnel blasters, and one dorsal twin laser turret. All of its weaponry is kept up by Sinizad, since AT-AT has become his personal 'pet project.' AT-AT is kept in the weapons supply hangar in the Empire. Other than having been sent out against the Windcurrent Clan, AT-AT hasn't left the hangar since the event. It remains off, until needed. During that time, Sinizad continues maintenance on it, and even gradually improving the weapons. Only recently has he let a technician, Akode, near AT-AT. She's smaller than him, and can worm into place that he can't squirm into.

But, unknown to everyone, AT-AT still dreams. No one knows about the dreams. They're kept in its memory banks...which it still has. It can't awaken, unless programmed to. It constantly has these dreams, that show itself to it. It dreams of grassy fields. Peace. Silence. Wind. But the thing that it focuses on the most in its dreams, are the butterflies that appear. It doesn't know why the butterflies are there, but it enjoys them. ...And it will continue to enjoy them, before being used in battle once again.
