I now fight wherever the cruel humans send me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your main purpose in life?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was bred for two purposes\u2014breeding and fighting. My goal is to kill all of the humans on my battle station and escape to the Homeland, a planet where cyborgs are free.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who is your greatest enemy and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I hate all humans. They\u2019re cruel, dishonorable creatures unworthy of lengthy lifespans.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you think you can ever reconcile with this enemy?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll reconcile them with my dagger blades.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you have a love interest?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is one human female, Joan, whom I might allow to live longer than the rest. She\u2026 interests me. When I see her, smell her, touch her, my human side says she is mine.<\/p>\n<p>But when she betrays me, as all humans do, she\u2019ll die.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your weapon of choice?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m a C model cyborg. I\u2019m skilled in all weapon use, but I most enjoy using daggers, one clasped in each hand. These primitive weapons prolong battles and that gives me great satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What makes you happy?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m content when I\u2019m serving one of my two purposes\u2014either breeding or fighting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you have a code of honor?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m loyal to my cyborg brethren. I prefer not to harm any innocent beings. If my opponent is honorable, I will end his lifespan as quickly and as painlessly as possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What makes you angry?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Injustice. The harming of a being I care about. Having to tolerate the human\u2019s torture and follow their cruel commands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d be free. I plan to change that soon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you think is your greatest strength?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m the best warrior ever created.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you think is your greatest weakness?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>C model cyborgs are primitive. We react first and think later.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you think is your enemy&#8217;s greatest strength?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The humans manufactured us. They built tracking and monitoring devices within us, have created what they feel are adequate restraints to hold us. They\u2019ve also designed us to be loyal, which, if they were at all rational beings, should prevent any rebellion. They don\u2019t realize that they\u2019ve pushed our loyalty too far.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you think is your enemy&#8217;s greatest weakness?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The humans, with the exception of Joan, think of cyborgs as machines, required to follow their commands, having no free will of our own. They forget that we\u2019re half human, able to plot our own course.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Name one person you admire.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I admire the A and B model cyborgs who trained me, who taught me how to survive the human\u2019s torture. They are obsolete, decommissioned (killed) solar cycles ago, but, when active, they were great warriors.<\/p>\n<p>Joan, the human handler, earned my admiration with her bravery. It was a foolish bravery but it was worthy of my respect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Name one person you trust.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I trust Crash and Gap and the rest of my cyborg brethren.
