Appearance

Fast and shiny and chrome. Survivor is some sort of tall (nearly 7') and lanky winged humanoid construct of unknown origin. Survivor is rather simple-minded and their blank features and non-biological nature is seen as off-putting and uncanny to many species. While Survivor's wings do allow for limited flight, they can not hover or fly for more than short bursts.

Background

Early Life

Survivor has no knowledge of their creation or creators. The earliest thing they remember is unknown years serving as a mindless automaton serving the commands of Zetrag the Cunning, a feared Gith pirate captain who wore a control bracelet that controlled Survivor and 4 other "siblings" of identical appearance and capabilities. Zetrag found the controller and the constructs aboard a derelict ship of an unknown species. Most of the time Survivor and the other constructs sat in a storage hold and were brought out mostly as cargo loaders and to access dangerous environments that Zetrag did not wish to risk other crew on. During an immense battle between Zetrag's ships and a force of Githzerai the interaction of several planar spells caused a massive blast that destroyed nearly all of the combatants on both side. The blast vaporized Zetrag and the other constructs, but for some incomprehensible reason Survivor instead became conscious and self-aware. Afterwards Survivor and the wrecks of many of the ships crashed on a nearby desolate asteroid.

Survivor was found heavily damaged amid the wreckage by the only other survivor of the blast, a powerful Githzerai psionic monk named Marmarin who undoubtedly did some sort of jedi bullshit to survive being blown up and falling from the sky. Marmarin at first thought Survivor was a simple mindless construct and at first Survivor continued to silently follow orders as they had for the wearer of the control bracelet, but Marmarin quickly realized that the construct was capable of more. While it was not intended to be a name she frequently referred to the construct as "my fellow survivor" and once Survivor began to talk the construct decided they liked that as a name and decided to keep it. Over the next 8 years they spent together marooned on the asteroid Marmarin taught Survivor many things and trained the construct in the basics of movement and meditation and together they managed to find enough food and water through foraging and scavenging the other wrecks, but Marmarin was always hoping for rescue. Miraculously rescue did come and before returning to her people in Limbo Marmarin left Survivor at a nearby spelljamming hub in good hands with the admonition to go out and learn and experience life as a free, sentient creature.

Current Life

Excited to help and learn and sail the stars

Hooks

"raised" by a Githzerai, Survivor likely shares their hatred of Mind Flayers and Githyanki, though without much real fervor or personal experience.

for spelljammer games, not for Mainland canon. Survivor is a magic flying punchy space robot and too weird for this world
