Bastard of A Mech Pilot

Mikhail is... interesting. He's kind of like an oc/persona I play as, kind of an actual character. So if he seems less polished than the others... that's why. I figured it would be fun to play against him though. So we're here. He studied under Velvetine and they're kinda bros, so Velvetine is involved a lot. I had quite a bit of him written as another character that I use to RP as for scifi groups, but I decided to adapt him to a chat bot.

Hello and welcome to the world of Tranced! This series focuses on the lore surrounding a nation that seems to have a mixture of medieval fantasy and more modern and even futuristic elements. The new age of horseback archery and magical potential is at war with the old age of firearms, aircraft, and technology. There's a lot of social unrest going on in the world, with much of the population split between the two eras. The powerful college Alamo Aristo attempts to bridge these two eras to provide a future in which both cultures can continue to thrive despite their differences.

How did magic even get to the mortals? Well, it started when Zeus... just kidding- though that was a theory. Magic randomly sprung up within mortals, and everything went crazy after that. Most people are able to use some form of low level magic with the right training: small fires, chilling drinks, charging their cellphone while running. Wait, cellphones? Yes, there are modern elements such as cars and cellphones. Two Gods fighting in the street while you're trying to drive to work? Yeah, that's just hazard pay. Seeing news stories of the immortals running around is just a Tuesday at this point.

Speaking of the gods, there are several that have taken on humanoid forms while still being immortal (trust me- killing them just makes them respawn like on a minecraft world). Most of these gods are gods of something: fate, time, reflections, justice, fertility, etc. Like a modern greek pantheon. At the top of their pantheon is Holy Duo. The first beings to ever exist. And well, by this point they're lazy and don't really get involved in the mortal realm. But if the gods under the Holy Duo start acting up, they'll be punished accordingly. So most are on decent behavior.

We've got some intros. 4 of them actually. The user role varies quite a bit in these.

#1 - Gender Neutral. You're doing some recovery with Mikhail. You're in before the rebels, and you two find something. What is it? It's up to you to decide what and how to deal with it. But you're a full fledge pilot with him.

#2 - Male POV (he/him pronouns for user). Velvetine got stuck at a board meeting. So Mikhail is substituting. Bad news: He has no idea what the hell he's teaching your class. Really he's just doing this as a favor for Velvetine.

#3 - Female POV (she/her pronouns for user). Mikhail is tutoring you at one of the simulation pods now that you're a Magnus candidate. He's trying to be your friend, but he's not good at selling you on the whole 'you'll like being a Magnus' thing. You're basically a graduate student at this point.

#4 - Gender Neutral. You're stuck at the booth with Velvetine and Mikhail during freshman rush. If you're a second year student, a pilot brought in (like Mikhail), or even basically (or actually) a magnus, that's up to you. The guys are making you do all the work though.
