Zimber
Serf
Name:
Classic!Zim, Aka Zimber, or Classic
Sexuality:
Bisexual
Gender:
Male
Physical Characteristics:
He is an anthropomorphic cat man covered in thick white fur, with cat ears and a tail, but few other physical catlike traits.
He wears a black travel cloak, similar to the river person from Undertale, though burned at the fringe
His only other clothes are a pair of slightly worn combat shorts
He has two black glass bands embedded in his wrists and welded to his bones. They boost his bloodline trait and slow its effects, though if one is cracked or shattered the adverse effects can be devastating, on top of shattering his wrists.
The bands can change color depending on his emotions, or during combat.
Age:
Widely varies, depending on what point in his timeline you happen to meet him, and it's subject to interpretation due to several times paradoxes and translation issues. The most common numbers, if scanned by a computer, are 19, several trillion, or a number of such absurd magnitude that typing it out would take ages
Height:
6 feet
Build:
He's only very slightly muscular due to having previously been an elite soldier for the Council of Nine, but his unique muscle structure (they can both expand AND contract) allows much more muscle to be packed into the same space, as well as vastly improving their effects. He can lift a maximum of five hundred pounds without assistance, though this is his rough upper limit.
Differences from Classic:
None
Eye Colour:
Black with white pupils. Stars glitter in his irises
Markings and tattoos:
Classic's only markings are scars, most notably one that runs diagonally across his back from shoulder to hip.
Additional notes:
Classic is the original Zimber, until he is refracted by the Moment he is the only one in existence. As such, all other Zimbers are at least partially based on him.
Classic is heavily affected by catnip and will occasionally roll a joint with it. Laser pointers are very visually distracting to him and he's fond of milk.
Personality:
Originally, he was a kind and compassionate soul, but his part in the events that sundered his planet and his universe darkened his view of the world
Abilities:
Zimber's species had a peculiar bloodline trait (Currently unnamed, still looking for a good one) that for lack of a better comparison... Imagine the abilities of Bill Cipher if you nerfed him to have to learn any change he makes like an ATLA bending discipline. Even beyond the obvious skill requirement, it has heavy drawbacks upon Classic, draining his stamina and slowly turning his body to stone. While he is partially stone, he cannot move whatever part has been petrified, of course. It wears off slowly over time with rest. If he fully becomes a statue, it requires some kind of monumental outside help to unfreeze him. In essence, reality bending.
On top of this, due to his training he is skilled with hand to hand combat and essentially any weapon found in human society.
Background:
Zimber's home planet, Aethergrym, was the hub of a massive empire that had nearly conquered his original universe. The capital city of Aethergrym was known as the Citadel, and it was encased in a large glass dome, also called the Bubble, that shone liquidly beneath the twin sunrise.
The top of the chain of command at the Citadel was a group known only to the public as the Council of Nine. The decisions this group made were often inscrutable, but their word was law, as they were the direct cause of Aethergrym's empire. One day, a rebel anarchist group styling themselves as Gloomfury suddenly gained massive power and influence not seen before in a terrorist cell. This of course became a huge problem because it turned into a civil war in the empire, Council supporters vs Gloomfury.
The war:
The war between Aethergrym and Gloomfury was the largest that universe had ever seen, with the use of interstellar weaponry on a mass destruction scale very common. One such weapon was known as the star laser, which in essence was the concentrated power of one percent of a star's energy gathered by a Dyson swarm, and accelerated to relativistic speeds. Being made of photons, it could not be directly observed, but one could see its exact path due to reflections off nearby planets, space dust, and other heavenly bodies, essentially looking like a green laser across the sky, outshining a viewing noncombatant planet's local sun. It could easily tear through nearly anything in its path, being used as a planet buster on both sides. In the end, technology became almost obsolete as the war became one of attrition.
The war only ended due to the influence of two projects launched by the opposing sides. Project Nightfall was the name given for Gloomfury's last resort, and rather poetically, Aethergrym called its final gambit Project Daybreak.
The goal of Project Nightfall was to create a machine (Codenamed Oblivion, fittingly) that would end the war, and the universe itself, as a deterrent and a trump card/threat to win by assured destruction. The oblivion machine was a megastructure the size of the average planet that consisted of vast loops made of dwarf star material, the densest thing that isn't a black hole, all feeding into and from the center, where a living host would be used for their bloodline trait to involuntarily power the device. The loops would feed this energy back into the center where it would build until reality itself would shatter, tearing the universe into quantum nothingness. The unwilling host's body would be burned up like an overheated flashbulb, leaving only a charred, empty husk.
On the other side of the coin was Project Daybreak, whose only goal was to stop the construction of such a machine at any cost, as well as protect as much as could be protected should it come to pass.
As such, it took multiple approaches, few of which were apparent until afterwards.
One such approach was the mission to take out the machine itself, which Zimber was trained for at undisclosed locations even he wasn't allowed to know the coordinates of.
