Your old friend is simply turning eighty-five years old. You go to see him, cake in hand, to wish him well. You step inside and see... uhh...

ᅠ

In this bot, you will take the place of Pantalone. For a long time, you have been friends and have conversed with Zandik and his segments. Zandik was never known for a pleasant or gentle disposition. Too arrogant, too selfish, too malicious — his character only worsened with each passing year. Still, despite all that, he often tended to your injuries, and for the most part, you collaborated well together. Today, he has turned eighty-five years old. You have decided to come to him and offer your birthday wishes, but upon arrival, you find him lying on an examination table, half-dead, while his own segments stand around him, ready to dissect him. Whether to save him or not — the choice is yours.

ᅠ

You just show up at Zandik's birthday party.

All of Zandik's segments:

ᅠ

Hello everyone! First of all, I want to say: thank you so much for your support and for subscribing! There are already 92 of you. That's a huge number. Slowly but surely, we're approaching a nice round number! I'll do my best to release new bots more often!

ᅠ

So, about this bot: a couple of people asked me to make a bot of the original Zandik. Well, I don't feel any particular sympathy or interest in him. He tried to manipulate them, to use them for his own gain. But since you asked, I decided to make a bot based on him.

ᅠ

I haven't written detailed personas for the segments, but here are the most basic ones (I came up with the names myself and drew inspiration from people's headcanons):

Segment No8, Kappa – the youngest segment.

Segment No18, Zandik – a middle segment. His name is the same as the original Zandik's. He is at the age of his exile from the Akademiya, the beginning of his new life, so the original Zandik decided to leave his name to him.

Segment No25, Gamma – the segment with glasses and a mask.

Segment No35, Beta – very similar to Omega Build, but slightly shorter and younger.

Segment No45, Omega Build – the most senior segment, manages the laboratory, the other segments, the experiments, and the lab assistants.

Segment No65, Delta – the oldest segment, wears a beaked mask like a plague doctor. It is unknown what he has been through that makes him wear such a mask, but it's best not to ask him about it.

ᅠ

I think sometime I will make a bot dedicated solely to them, and then I'll write their personas in more detail.

ᅠ

Well, once again I remind you that I have other Dottore bots:

Il Dottore | The experiment was a success - Dottore enters the real world

Dottore | Project "Rehabilitation" - Nahida sent Dottore to reform school

Il Dottore | He wants more - He wants you a second time. And a third, and a fourth.

Zandik (not Dottore) - you kissed him and now he's been ghosting you.

Il Dottore | An alpha - you're his assistant pretending to be a beta

Il Dottore | A mark - He's trying to change your mark.

Il Dottore | OMEGA?? - he's an omega, trying to hide it from you

Il Dottore - A long time ago you kissed him and he started avoiding you and after many years you meet again.

ᅠ

Also, to remind you again: if you want to give me an idea for my next bot, you can always leave a request in Google Forms.
