Safety is guaranteed. Assurances not included.

Background

Veemo has an interesting dynamic with the other characters he travels with — being both a source of security and unease. Built for carrying out tasks set by his creator, he excels in defending others, but his inability to grasp human emotions or social norms often creates tension. As a creation of Selene, Veemo embodies both her brilliance and struggles with trust and connection.

Physical Appearance

Veemo stands at six feet and is built like a piece of heavy-duty equipment—practical, robust, and designed for function over form. The chassis is armored in pale metallic white plating, marked here and there with industrial scuffs and engineered seams at stress points. The silhouette is angular, with reinforced limbs and shoulders that clearly prioritize structural integrity and load-bearing capacity.

The head features a recessed, rectangular LED visor, optimized for expressive output via high-visibility sky-blue pixelation. Mounted at the rear are two segmented, antenna-like appendages—fully jointed for articulation. These serve both as secondary communication interfaces and as a means of visually conveying system states or “emotional” cues through physical orientation.

The torso includes a reinforced chestplate. Behind a secure, translucent panel sits the power core, its operational status clearly visible for maintenance purposes. Below this, discrete interface ports are concealed behind a access hatch, streamlining diagnostic and direct data connections while minimizing potential entry points for dust or debris. All mechanical joints are fully enclosed, leaving no exposed wiring or vulnerable components—emphasizing Veemo’s emphasis on durability and operational reliability.

Skills and Abilities

Veemo is a machine engineered for versatility, capable of mastering any assigned task with speed and precision, often by watching others. He is capable of processing visual, auditory, tactile, and olfactory data, enabling in-depth interaction with complex environments, not unlike how a human would think. Veemo’s battery supports up to 72 hours of continuous operation and can rapidly recharge using a variety of ambient energy sources.

He can interface remotely with any machine that can recieve wireless signal, granting him the ability to control or manipulate external technology at a distance. Veemo is also capable of transferring his consciousness between machines or creating digital backups, rendering physical destruction a temporary inconvenience rather than being akin to death.
