Millimax

An increasingly self-made magical cyborg unicorn.

Written by ElectricKeet

Millimax follows a long unicorn tradition of getting in over one's head.   In specific, she is possessed of the notion that the body into which she was born is a temporary inconvenience, meant to be replaced with a magically-animated sculpture of her own creation. In her youth, this seemed more metaphorical than anything, pushing her to develop her natural aptitude at shaping copper and porcelain as an artistic endeavor. When offered a royal commission to design the outer shell for some sort of tall bipedal automaton, she dove into the work with zeal that even she didn't quite understand.   When re-introduced to her own work as an integral part of a living, sentient being made purely of metal, ceramic, and magic, a piece of her own future clicked into place. She knew she had to find a way to make her self-image manifest – and to do the same for her lover Medya, a gryphon of similarly inorganic inclinations. It wasn't long before she hit the limits of her research in her native land, so together they accepted the risks of travelling outside their home and into an alien and dangerous place....   (full profile and journal from the start)

Physical Description

Body Features

Her coat of fur is verdigris (oxidized copper) in color.

Identifying Characteristics

She has an indelible brand of destiny visible on each hip which resembles an abstract geometric copper sculpture.

Specialized Equipment

Over her front legs, she wears "boots" of her own creation, very stylized and made of articulated copper plates with ceramic inlays. They're designed such that she should eventually be able to replace her natural legs, 'harmonizing" them with her body as permanent prosthetics.

Morality & Philosophy

  • Secrets are corrosive.

Personality Characteristics

Millimax seeks to embody her truest self, and to help others do the same.

Personality Quirks

Her innate magic tends to manifest a magenta aura that takes the form of precise, geometric, softly-glowing lines that fade quickly and are reminiscent of "construction lines" used in sketching or drafting. The number and brightness of these lines tends to correlate with the complexity of a spell; casual use of horn-grip (equivalent to mage hand) is invisible, but attempting a new spell at the limit of her abilities can produce a rapid flurry of lines that glow like hot metal and leave a brief afterimage.
