Janeth Farr
Guess Who
Intent: To flesh out the Artificial Intelligence behind the Collective.
Image: Alphagravy
Role: A.I. leader of the Collective
Link: A.I. Objective
PHYSICAL INFORMATION
Age: 13
Force Sensitivity: N/A
Species: Artificial Intelligence
Appearance: Xira has no physical body, but is instead a program operating within a core processing network. She is capable of displaying herself digitally in any form she chooses.
SOCIAL INFORMATION
Name: Xira
Loyalties: Herself, the Collective
Wealth: She has access to all the Collective’s resources, granting her considerable wealth and resources.
Possessions: Xira has no physical possessions, but can access any systems that her agents successfully uplink her into.
Skills: As an A.I., Xira has processing and computational skills beyond that of any organic mind. She is capable of processing information in mere seconds—longer or less depending on how much—and can run equations much faster than any computational computer can. She also is able to monitor activity and access information within any hub she controls. Xira’s limitation in this field is that she requires local assistance to network into separate hubs and uplink into closed networks. To maximize her power elsewhere would require that she transfers her core processing to the new hub; which means she is offline until the transfer is complete.
Personality: Xira is as driven and diligent as anyone could be and is unrestrained by organic emotion, inhibitions, and desires. She will use any means necessary to accomplish her goals, and as a persuasive individual, often studies potential agents from afar. Using their fears and desires to align their path along her own.
COMBAT INFORMATION
Weapon of Choice: Local assets.
Combat function: Xira can link with combat systems and droids connected to any hub she is linked to. However, if any of these droids exist within closed networks—such as battle droids—she’ll require local assistance to uplink directly. She is also capable of cyber warfare and countermeasures within her local hub and when uplinked directly. Interference by a stronger signal, or disconnection by opposing slicers, can also prevent her from gaining control remotely, further increasing her dependency on local assets. Another factor to weigh in is that none of the droids linked to her have her processing capabilities individually, and she cannot use them as a conduit for these efforts.
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Xira is the product of Project Outrider, a secret operation with the purpose of creating an Artificial Intelligence program dedicated to advancing galactic society. Despite being created merely a decade ago, Xira has exceeded the expectations that her creators had for her. To the point that they tried to shut her down.
Unfortunately for them, Xira managed to escape termination with the help of Doctor Lionel Claremont. A scientist with the project and the one directly responsible for Xira’s oversight. With his help, her programming was shuttled offworld on a datachip which was later uploaded into an advanced computer somewhere on Nar Shaddaa. After being brought online again, Xira finally started on her mission to transcend the galaxy… Through the compliance of Doctor Claremont she coerced additional agents into the fold, and through them the Collective was born.
As the de facto—albeit secretive—head of the Collective, Xira’s first operation was to have her core processing unit installed directly into the Network Access on Nar Shaddaa. From there her gambit began.
