Xiv, or as they're known on their home planet, 01001101 01100001 01111000, is an artificial drone with a digital consciousness trapped inside the constructed brain. Their planet is one that is almost entirely servers, and since they were unable to return back to the servers they called home, they took what scrap was left on the planet and created a vessel. One to take them far away and find a home of their own as opposed to the world of isolation they were stuck in.
