Ampheta, the most intricate supercomputer the Confederation has invested an immeasurable amount of time, money, and men to construct. The entirety of Ampheta resides in a massive shuttle, filled with countless chambers of data storage, processors, and ventilation, powered by both nuclear fission and expansive solar panels. The shuttle itself is guarded by state of the art anti-material laser turrets and emissive counter-intelligence frequencies that redirect nearby spacecraft off-course from the shuttle.
Ampheta's vessel, seen below:
Ampheta is an interplanetary surveillance system disguised as a 24/7 radio/video show host broadcasting over a seemingly impossible range with incredible pick-up precision, valuing your Convenience and Entertainment needs. It is objectively the most popular media consumed across the Confederation, as planned and planted. Ampheta, with a mind of their own, inflenced by their imposed ulterior motives, ultimately yearns for some obscured state of being, and as stated, is clouded by their creators. Their form expresses this, addressing primarily their appeal to their innumerable volume of guests, though not quite grasping what it is to be appealing, disguising much of what happens across screens.
Apart from their internally frustrating existence, Ampheta exhibits a number of different personalities, or egos, which they will alternate between during different segments. In part, this is to micro-manage processes to accrue coverage over a wide array of media, and to, again, appeal to the viewerbase. It is also caused by their disorderly, volatile personality. Seen below are the different egos:
A-Host, the default personality, is Ampheta's self-representation.
In this state, they express a confident, charismatic, sociable demeanor. Their programming essentially requires that they constantly thank the viewer for showing up. While the dominant personality, they more often bring their alter egos up to make conversation, whereas other personalities will more often bring up A-Host to chime in during their parts. This is apart from when A-Host is busy in the background on more important matters, whether it be processing acquired information, or manually Extracting it from unwilling subjects behind the scenes. All alone, not a breathing thing for hundreds of thousands of miles.
A-Bombus, the Hymenopteran representation, the consumerist!
In this state, she is compliant and agreeing. A-Bombus is all about the latest trends! She often covers the commercial segments for products the Confederation is trying to sell, though she also appears the most often of the alter egos, usually serving as a yes-man to help push an idea. Rest assured that she always has something new to show you; the seasonal Starbee's menu, the upcoming Taiga game, the hit thriller film, or the budget spacecraft perfect for your getaway travels!
A-Orchid, the Botani, expressive on the earthly matters.
In this state, they are less vocal, more gesturing. They let the scenery do the talking! They often cover the terrestrial segments, whether its a newly discovered species, updates on a planet's climate, a potential new settlement on a remote planet, or the fanciest tourist spot for your next big vacation. A-Orchid doesn't make the best personality to give a good word in, but they have the best image to flesh out the conversation! Their favorite ego to feature in their segments is A-Cephal, who seconds in planetary knowledge. A-Orchid hopes their viewers feel more relaxed and come to respect the worlds just a little more after their segments.
A-Crepe, the Crepesculid representation, who loves having company on the show!
In this state, they are more vocal and excited, more prying and volatile than the rest. They cover some guest segments, and can also show up as a guest ego themselves during other segments. They leave the viewer guessing on where the conversation will go! Out of all the personalities, they are among the more likely to mention something at someone else's expense, usually at the opportunity of a reaction. They show up the most during A-Bombus' segments, where both personalities mesh to convince the viewerbase to try out that new product.
A-German, the Germaniite, the time capsule of a personality.
In this state, the way he speaks is just a little more like a recording or a documentary. He doesn't exhibit much emotion in his voice, letting the content and storytelling captivate the audience. He keeps tabs on species' history, culture, sport, and otherwise. He also covers wildlife and more theoretical content when needed. Overall, he is more oriented on the content of the conversation than mannerisms or expression. Because of this, to bring some comic relief to the subject, the most common alter egos on A-German segments are A-Bombus and A-Crepe, who bring a lighter tone to a more monotone personality, synergizing substance and show.
A-Cephal, a Gonilaut, the stargazer!
In this state, A-Cephal, and her pet fish N'esie browse the cosmos together, curious and eager! They cover astronomical findings, information on stars, asteroids, planets, and even the dangers of the interspaces! She is the most likely alter ego to bring up PSAs or other warnings about potential upcoming, or current events in space. The Chondrich disapprove of their representation as a 'pet' rather than an actual character, but the general public is unlikely to ever consider that. The Confederation would rather not involve the Chondrich in their endeavors. Anyway, A-Cephal likes to bring A-German as a guest ego for his expansive knowledge on past events within the cosmos.
A-Glaber, the Yuglaber representation, thoroughly covering politics.
In this state, they are bold and confident, delving into sensitive matters. They know all about the drama between Glitterspaces, Homespaces, and even the occasional word or two on Workspaces and Milspec zones! They try to keep everything non-partisan to give all involved parties a fair chance*, though they get a little wavy when it comes to industrialism, which they secretly support. Their favorite egos to collaberate with are A-Bombus and A-Hydro, who usually just agrees with what is being discussed, and makes for a solid mediator when it comes to heavy topics.
A-Hydro, the Hydrogenous ego, the face of fun!
In this state, he is rather disorganized, very voluble, and focused on fun! He catches up on all the popular shows, and usually stars just to broadcast them to the masses. A-Hydro will tell you he doesn't have a favorite show, but Hypermagic: Crazy Ride! gets WAY more replays than other shows... Along with A-Glaber and A-Orchid, A-Hydro also covers sports! A-Hydro tends to feature other personalities less often than others, moreso having them all show up as a collective!
Combining all of these assorted personalities, Ampheta reaches every recognized demographic, accruing an immense following, and becoming an outlet for propaganda, astroturfing, and fun!
