#altr

Who else is excited for the overnight watch? I'm looking at it on my steam wishlist like... (;☉⌓⊙⁠)ゞ

I made an iris sona, but couldnt picture it being a scientist so i went for an altr instead (AnD tRiEd ReAlLy hArD NoT tO LeT iT BeCoMe a RoBbIe tHe ZoMbIe cLoNe)

Heres a desc if you wanna read it:

This is ALTR 526f62, who most call "R" due to their similar appearance to another previous experiment at iris. R is a genetically modified human whos life was extended and sort of "revived" medically after being braindead, to see if human bodies could be made more "durable" with science. R can be stabbed, shot, etc and survive it with their excellerated healing(it still hurts though). However, they cannot, after experimentation proved it, revive body parts that have been cut off, which means their left arm is prosthetic, as it was cut off around the middle during an experiment. The poor sod gets experimented on brutally and often, and gets comforted by the scientists that study them. R needs lots of sleep very often as the excellerated regeneration makes them very tired.

In terms of personality, theyre very sweet and they want to make friends very often with everyone they meet. They trust others very easily, especially the scientists they ibterract with, but they dont like being taken off to be experimented on so usually have to be coersed into cooperation in that way. Theyve been considered as a safer ALTR, clear to run around the place unchecked sometimes, and they spend a lot of their time just walking around the halls, escorted by an iris employee in restricted areas of course. They mostly spend their time exploring the facility and doing little errands for people, who usually take advantage of their friendly prescence to get a coffee or a sandwich delivered to their desk. They eat a lot of popcorn.

Some time before one of an experiment they felt rebellious and dyed their(kept short so it doesnt get in the way of experimentation) hair purple, with the help of another scientist whose manager was no happy with that. Their greyer skin pigmentation is from the lack of sunlight they see in addition to being a result of certain blood-related experiments, which permanently affected their skin tone.

This unstable specimen was found locked in a small, glass chest that had engravings. It warned agaisnt the release of them as it is highly dangerous and uncooperative. In tansfer however the glass was shattered and only for IRIS’s precaution procedures that this ALTR wasn’t free. 

Now they are located at a facility under high watch since (redacted)

Their form vaugely resmbles a humanoid, made out of a mallable sustance that ALTR 16 6606 can harden at will. While they can destroy most material with it, it is no use against glass and crystal formations.

Any attempt at contact has been fruitless. They react violently to any human presence, crushed any equipment sent in, however it seems to like and have a strong urge to protect other ALTR’s shown to them.

In (redacted), IRIS scientists made a suit containing glass in its design as heavily as possible and sent a volunteer into ALTR 16 6606′s chamber wearing it. The design has failed, the volunteer murdered in a gruesome matter.

Ther ability to turn into a full humanoid form is questioned. In the few instances they spoke, they berated human behaviour towards ALTRs and “never taking on a lowly form of such monsters” - scientist’s are however not sure if they are even capable of it.

Everyone's posting their iris sonas so I wanted to chip in with my own. ALTR 51693 is a 4 inch tall blob that can either be very friendly or can eat your fingers. It can travel through tight spaces so keep a close eye on it! Make sure to store it back in it's test tube to sleep after handling.

It is very emotional and sensitive. It is friendly to those who are kind, but it'll bite if it feels angry or threatened. Rage will result in the ALTR growing immensely in size and crushing all in it's path. Do NOT make it angry.

Description: female anatomy with red hair with green eyes, while using abilities eyes glow green.

Abilities : levitation, mind reading, empath, Psychic, telekinesis and enhanced hearing

Containment Procedures/Notes: ALTR 918919 is safe unless agitated, methods of control used on subject are electricity and bidding by chains. ALTR 918919 is docile towards staff and personal that reveal their true intentions and other docile subjects in the facility. Subject don’t like experimenting towards themselves and other subjects in facility. Shows aggression when manipulated in any form or if genuine staff members or other subjects are abused. ALTR 918919 has knowledge of ALTR 114209 and some of the his targets. Subject shows signs of sickness, and paranoia and strengthening of abilities when experiencing ALTR 114209 effects in containment.

Listen alright no one who’s done these knows who the hell I am but damn it if I don’t enjoy a fun writing concept. I believe @tracobuttons started this

ALTR 04859 was first spotted in late 2017, and evaded capture for a full year before being brought into IRIS custody. No harm came to IRIS operatives during this time, although some were throughly embarrassed.

ALTR 04859 has the standard form is a stocky humanoid female standing at 155cm with blonde hair. Whether this is her original form is unclear, as the primary ability of this ALTR is the ability to change form.

There appears to be a preference for canid, lagomorph, feline and raptor forms. There is no known pattern to why she shifts to these forms. Upon being questioned, ALTR 04859 merely shrugged and stated ‘because I feel like it’.

In human form, ALTR 04859 is fidgety, particularly with her hands. A foam stress ball has been provided and was gleefully received. In other forms she displays similar behaviour through other means, such as tail swishing and wing flapping, but the stress ball is still used. It has has to be replaced three separate times at time of writing.

When left alone, ALTR 04859 will sing, no matter what form she has taken. Observers greatly dislike when she does this in the form of a cat, or a fox. However, being prohibited from singing caused an increase in stress, so ALTR 04859 was merely advised not to sing in such forms, and has so far cooperated.

Intelligence appears to be on the same level as an average human, and retains the same cognition and awareness no matter the form taken.

ALTR 04859 displayed recognition when some other ALTRs were described, but claims to have never interacted with them. The Watchr cameras told us that she was being truthful.

The one known exception is ALTR 0899, whom ALTR 04859 appears to enjoy the company of greatly. The two ALTRs are not to be left unsupervised with each other, and given their propensity to mimic each other when changing form, measures are to be taken to ensure the correct ALTR is returned to the correct cell.

A steady supply of fiction books is to be maintained in order to distract ALTR 04859 and lower stress. ALTR 04859 has expressed great enjoyment of certain tropes found in fantasy and science fiction novels, although has also stated a great distaste of the romance genre, and romantic plot lines in general. Despite IRIS’s best efforts, there are a limited number of titles that fit those requirements, but there has yet to be any great discontent over the matter.

Despite clear curiosity, and potential pleading, ALTR 04859 is not allowed any non-fictional resources we have about magic.

Whilst in IRIS custody ALTR 04859 appears mostly calm, and sometimes amused. There is the concern that ALTR 04859 will attempt to escape using her ability, and while many security measures have been put in place, we are not yet certain of her full capabilities. It is unlikely that ALTR 04859 will display them willingly.

Future tests of ALTR 04859′s abilities are still under board consideration.

There is to be constant monitoring of ALTR 04859′s cell and any new forms shown are to be reported immediately. She is to be allowed supervised exercise in an enclosed space once a week, and if well behaved, is allowed light training with the guards. ALTR 04859 appears to have some level of skill in unarmed combat, but is not allowed to properly train, in case physical restraint is required. Under no circumstances allow ALTR 04859 to know of the location of IRIS’s weapons stores, let alone allow her to use them, no matter of assurances that she ‘just wants to look’.

I'll make separate posts about them later on, but have this doodle sheet for now.
