SHADOW SLEUTHS

A Limited Free Thread

OVERVIEW This database will serve as the main collection of all SHADOWN SLEUTHS P/NPCs, both active and inactive. Each will have a mini-bio indicating the player who created them. Entries are listed alphabetically by first name, as not all individuals have surnames. CICERO Cicero [PNPC Created by Michael Dailey] Grade: N/A Billet: N/A Star Fleet Artificial Intelligence Mark XXIV “M” – Online since 2431 (Terran calendar) Homeworld: Daystrom Institute - Terra/Sol III Cicero, the hidden voice of Star Fleet Security & Investigative Service, isn't your typical AI. Polite and analytical to a fault, it helps the SECIS staff crack complex cases with logic that would leave A Kolinarh Adept speechless. Yet beneath the cool, calculating exterior lies a surprising quirk: a dry, witty humor that sometimes leaves partners both amused and slightly bewildered. However, don't mistake Caesar's wit for lightheartedness – its feelings are as finely tuned as its algorithms, and a careless remark can sting its digital heart and will voice its despair, often repeatedly. Despite (or perhaps because of) this sensitivity, Cicero possesses an insatiable curiosity, its digital tendrils constantly poking into every corner of an investigation, sometimes to the annoyance of its humanoid colleagues. Ultimately, though, Caesar's unique blend of brilliance, humor, and emotional vulnerability makes it an invaluable asset to the Agency, ensuring no criminal can outsmart or outwit this extraordinary AI. Its gentle reminders to personnel are often appreciated but sometimes viewed as incessant nagging. Accessible via SFSECIS-issued wrist or subdermal communicators, Cicero serves many roles for both field agents and support division staff, including situational analysis, guidance in UCMJ and UFP laws, SECIS regulations. “He” can also provide advice on any topic currently in Memory Alpha, and tends to do so frequently, without being asked. NOTE: Given the horrors of past AI catastrophes in Star Fleet, SFE has laboriously built numerous safeguards in Caesar, severely limiting its ability to control or override other Star Fleet systems, while still able to essentially ‘look but not touch’ sensitive or critical systems. Cicero cannot be ordered to directly or indirectly cause harm to a living being. Furthermore, its core mandate to protect SECIS personnel from harm cannot be overridden by anyone.
