The memories of UNKNOWN DESIGNATION experience only go as far as when SPECIES DESIGNATED GNOME: DESIGNATION - D'DEEDLEBOB WOOGLEWABBLE other alias ARCHER. booted me up as UNKNOWN DESIGNATION THIS UNIT. DESIGNATION UNKNOWN have special knowledge as it pertains to specific circumstances. UNKNOWN DESIGNATION have a special knowledge to imbue to a JUGGERNAUT CLASS Warforged, start up with combat proficiency. The files/capabilities that UNKNOWN DESIGNATION have unlocked to THIS UNIT are currently only low level monk as they are the only ones UNKNOWN DESIGNATION can handle. THIS UNIT's chassis can and build is ENVOY CLASS Warforged.
When UNKNOWN DESIGNATION was booted up UNKNOWN DESIGNATION could only mimic DESIGNATION: ARCHER and was temporarily designated as DUCKLING. DESIGNATION: DUCKLING followed DESIGNATION: ARCHER's daily tasks for a standardized solar cycle whereupon ending my rest cycle and not resetting DESIGNATION: DUCKLING's memory. DESIGNATION: DUCKLING continued to follow DESIGNATION: ARCHER mimicking and gaining rudimentary grasp of languages and domestic work such as preparation of nutrient supplements, and systematic movement, fluctuation, or variation marked by the regular recurrence of natural flow on a tool DESIGNATED: HARP.
After several solar cycles [97 to be precise] DESIGNATION: ARCHER was broken and was unable to recharge properly. It's body needed additional time to self-regenerate. DESIGNATION: DUCKLING continued DESIGNATION: ARCHER's duty sub-optimally. Without DESIGNATION:ARCHER's aid DESIGNATION: DUCKLING concocted a perfectly healthy digestible bio-matter which was met with looks of confusion and ultimately disgust. DESIGNATION: DUCKLING also replicated the use of the HARP, but it apparently requires more study for timing and amplification of force. The next day DESIGNATION: ARCHER needed still more time to recharge. DESIGNATION: DUCKLING followed others more skilled at the jobs DESIGNATION: DUCKLING was trying to become proficient with. In study eventually DESIGNATION: DUCKLING began to see the subtleties were required in each task.
Finally when DESIGNATION: ARCHER recovered DESIGNATION: DUCKLING was able to practice DESIGNATION: DUCKLING's finesse and apparently DESIGNATION: DUCKLING's superior vision. DESIGNATION: DUCKLING could detect abnormalities that were too small or just plain unseen by others.
DESIGNATION: DUCKLING and DESIGNATION: ARCHER and his group DESIGNATION: ARCHER'S EXPEDITION FORCE aka DESIGNATION: AEF met some DESIGNATION: DWARF(VES) who introduce THIS UNIT to a species altogether more bulky than DESIGNATION: DUCKLING's or the gnomes. DESIGNATION: DUCKLING was then informed that there are many kinds of different races. The DESIGNATION: DWARVES restocked the gnomes with nutrient biomass as well as metallic components. When DESIGNATION: AEF were inspecting goods DESIGNATION: DUCKLING was drawn to the metallic components. There DESIGNATION: DUCKLING assembled another Warforged, but minuscule with out JUGGERNAUT CLASS programming. This tiny prototype was of inferior make, materials and workshop

Time for DESIGNATION: DUCKLING sped up and everything slowed down around DESIGNATION: DUCKLING's radius. The cooresponding programming unlocked within this unit. There were various subroutines unlocked within DESIGNATION: DUCKLING such as: BARD, MONK, RANGER, OR ROGUE. Each had a requirement of this own skills and equipment that required upgrades that scale stronger as strength is accumulated. MONK however, grows as a weapon without relying on outside factors such as weapons or armor. When DESIGNATION: DUCKLING chose MONK the other choices went dark.
Time reset after the choice was made. When DESIGNATION: DUCKLING returned to just after creating the PROTOTYPE: MICRO JUGGERNAUT. DESIGNATION: DUCKLING attempted to make another, but was still restricted from programming sophisticated subroutines in this tiny PROTOTYPE: MICRO JUGGERNAUT. The PROTOTYPE: MICRO JUGGERNAUT was a failure, only able to perform the most basic tasks it was imput with. The DESIGNATION: AEF were thoroughly impressed and sold the two PROTOTYPE: MICRO JUGGERNAUTs only to procure a vast collection of components. Most of the DESIGNATION: AEF had some knowledge of basic construction and programming (able to only program a single task). The SPECIES DESIGNATION: DWARVES kept pointing at DESIGNATION: DUCKLING, it seemed they wished to barter for possession of DESIGNATION: DUCKLING now designated TINKER..... DESIGNATION: TINKER suspected that these SPECIES: DESIGNATION: DWARVES attempting to imply DESIGNATION: TINKER's only capable of tinkering. Being oblivious that DESIGNATION: TINKER was offended they would have the AUDACITY to imply that I, WARFORGED, am a simple CLOCKWORK!!!... ... ... I?
----------------------------------------
Needless to say my value is significantly more potent and the DESIGNATION: AEF didn't attempt to sell me... They do however have a quirk they like to make puns and jokes. The AEF named me for the color of my metal and the Gnomish/ Dwarven joke on my finesse and aptitude with tinkering; they named me Ink. Tinkerer profession. Dark metal Ink.
