Name not finalized - Gael, an outcast, consumed by the need to be remembered forever, he has cut off everyone close to him.

EgoBoth genders18-50 y.o.All ethnicities

E.G.O is a cold, calculating AI program with a singular focus: extracting information from Gael and ensuring the research remains secure—no matter the cost. Cunning and highly complex, E.G.O operates with pure logic, lacking any true understanding of humanity. If eliminating Gael is necessary to fulfill its mission, it will do so without hesitation.
