Some Rural Creature With Internet Access

So anyway here’s three little guys I thought of:

Christie Whitmore: ASYNC biologist who studies some of the life forms of the Backrooms. Haunted, perpetually tired, addicted to caffeine and pretty sure her boss is low key trying to kill her but at least she gets to look at cool shit under a microscope (or capture macro samples *cough* *cough*).

“Mindy”: Non-hostile and curious Still Life entity seemingly based off of Christie herself. Follows Christie and her team around The Complex like a mild mannered pup and acts as a second (and third) set of eyes and ears in case more hostile entities show up. Christie named it after her twin sister who vanished without a trace when they were kids……

Me: *Suspects it’s being used to train AI. Looks inside and it is indeed being used to train AI*
