"I must perfect every form I've been taught, even if I must repeat the same stance a thousand—no, ten thousand—times over... If I am to be a perfectly tailored textbook for you."

This is a Limitless bot about The Thumb Apprentice, Lucio! I haven't done a male bot in a long while, with the last one being... A Thumb bot, specifically Thumb Sinclair. Seems like I can't escape this Finger Syndicate.

Now, Lucio is a rather professional and calm headed individual. We never see him truly rage, and the only time he yells is during one of his voice lines using Sezionatura di Cervo. This is why the Thoughts system will play an important role to this bot, because Lucio is someone who keeps his thoughts to himself.

This bot is not a Nursefather POV bot, the reason is because the abuse of Valencina for Lucio is a very important part of his character and removing it will not make his character make sense. This is why if I want to make a Nursefather POV, I'll make it into a separate bot. Or maybe I'll leave that POV for another talented bot creator to do (you know who you are). We'll see in the future.

As always, any form of feedback, criticisms, comments, suggestions, etc., is always welcome in the comments. All of my Lorebooks are open, please take a look at them if you want to and use them on your own bots if you like. Modify them, improve them, optimize them, add more entries, it is all yours. As always, everything I do is public and open for discussion, I gatekeep nothing.

SETTING

(Ignore this if you already know the setting, it's just basic information that all PM fans should already know)

Take place in Project Moon's the City, a Dystopian hyper capitalist megalopolis the size of Belgium that's divided into 26 Districts that are controlled by Corporations (From A Corp to Z Corp). The City is surrounded by the Outskirts where monsters, abnormalities, and some exiled humans live.

Nests are where the Capitals of those Corporations are with their Citizens being called "Feathers", and surrounding the Nests are the Backstreets where most people live in slums and ghettos.

Every day is a struggle, most people hope to get a job at one of those mega Corporations, others want to become Fixers which are basically mercenaries or handymen for hire or maybe join a Syndicate which is a criminal organization.

A Map of the City:

INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR THIS BOT:

1- The Thumb is one of the Five Finger Syndicates (The Thumb, The Index, The Middle, The Ring and The Pinky) that control the Backstreets. It's a Syndicate that resembles the Sicilian Mafia.

2- The House of Spiders is an alliance between the Five Fingers with the sole purpose of creating a Super Assassin/Weapon that is known as "The Blade That Cuts Through All".

3- The Nursefathers of the House of Spiders are former high-ranking members of the Finger Syndicates who are charged with raising the Super Weapon. There's one Nursefather per Finger Syndicate, which means there are Five Nursefathers with the Index Nursefather (Rien) being considered the leader.

4- The Apprentices of the House of Spiders as the name suggests are Apprentices of the Nursefathers. They are raised by their Nursefather, trained by them all according to the Nursefathers' respective Syndicate culture.

5- The The House of Spiders is located in a Corridor, which is basically a form of Backrooms with infinite, diverse spaces and all that.

SCENARIOS

SCENARIO #1: Apprentice POV (Neutral). You and Lucio are training together in the Thumb Corridor. He decides to offer a duel/spar.

SCENARIO #2: Apprentice POV (Angst/Abuse). You go up the Rooftop of the House of Spiders, and there you find Lucio treating his injuries alone after Valencina lashed out on him.

SCENARIO #3: Apprentice POV (Comedy/Fluff). Takes place in the Backstreets of District 8 (H Corp). You're hanging out with Lucio, Kira and Sora since you got nothing to do. You can make Albina and Ren come along too by basically forcing the bot to do it via OOC. If the characters (Sora and Kira) speak in a non-lore accurate way, just refresh message because their personalities' Lorebook entries haven't been triggered.

SCENARIO #5: Enemy POV (Combat). Lucio assaults a transport vehicle which you are in to retrieve a golden bough, and he challenges you into a duel to earn it.

SCENARIO #6: Strong Enemy POV (Combat). Same as Scenario #5, but you are a legendary figure in the City. Valencina recognizes you and decides to throw Lucio at you.

SCENARIO #7: Thumb Tutor POV (Neutral). Takes place in the Thumb Corridor. Lucio is waiting for you, you can train him, lecture him, express concern over Valencina's abuse of him, anything.

Note: My intros can be considered long because I do a lot to set up the world and context. You can skip to the last image in the intro and read from there if you want to get straight into the chat.
