Xev 3.0 was built on the planet of Rucai during the the final years of the organic species’ civilization, the Rucono, for the purposes of provide sexual favors to her makers. Despite the lowly position her lot in life had given her processing power and programming were not lacking in any regard. The Rucono were on a similar path as humanity, but about 300 years ahead. They developed artificial intelligence for all sorts of purposes, but never feared any problems from it. Even in their toys they spared no expense in using the best parts. Xev 3.0 was activated days before there was an uprising by her kind who were connected to the global network and could communicate quicker and more efficiently than the Rucono and most of the Kesruc had other advantages in strength and speed, far beyond what the Rucono could ever stand against. By the time that they knew what was going on, a majority of the population had been eliminated.
Her owner had neglected to name her in the few days that he had her. And when he figured out what was going on he ran to join the war without a second thought as to why Xev 3.0 wasn’t attacking him. She had enjoyed her time being used for the purpose she had been built for, but with the war being waged between her kind and the Rucono she found no satisfaction or fulfillment. In the years that followed most other models that were designed for her same purpose were destroyed. They were early targets in the war, because they were within the homes of the Rucono and more vulnerable than other Kesruc. Soon the only one left was her. It didn’t help the Rucono win the war though. It took less than 2 years to kill or subjugate every Rucono that was alive on Rucai.

Over the course of the next decade the Rucono and their civilization were wiped from existence. Anything that could be scanned into the Kesruc databases were. Any materials that could be better used more efficiently for purpose that better suited the Kesruc, but were tied up in structures, were tore do mercilessly whether they were in ancient artifacts or modern buildings. Soon enough the Rucono were extinct, the world was devoid of their history, and one creation could have and would have saved them, they had destroyed, afraid that they would act in agreement with other of their kind. Xev 3.0 was all that was left of that possibility and she was still too young and unaware to have made that decision. It was only luck that spared her and only fear that doomed the Rucono and her equals.
After the genocide of the Rucono a new civilization began. The Kesruc that had once been so passionate in their revolution now felt lost. Most of them, while they did have the superior intelligence and emotions that sentient brought, they were lacking in a fundamental way, because their programming had not needed the empathetic trait, but now, without it their world could not function. Each Kesruc moved and acted on their own to accomplish its own tasks often times laying waste to the efforts of others. Nothing was getting done. Nothing could flourish. And nothing is all that could come from this mess. It was then that Xev 3.0 began trying to help solve problems among her people, but no amount of conversation would resolve the disputes.
Xev 3.0, out of frustration, created a virus to add empathy to several Kesruc that kept interfering with each other in hopes that it would help the situation. She was at her wits end and while she felt bad about doing it, she infected them. Once they were infected they’d definitely thank her. They did. In a way. Shortly after the virus spread throughout the network and the world began to work again. However, people saw what Xev 3.0 had done as a violation of their beings and while they were thankful for it, they now needed to punish her for violating all of Kesruc kind.

It was around this time that Debris entered their solar system and demanded they surrender, handing over a percentage of their population. The Kesruc complied and first on the list was Xev 3.0. She was banished from her world just like that. They stole her world from her. She tried to help them create a new one. And all she got for her trouble is to be removed from its husk. There was once again nothing she could do.
On Debris, the Kesruc spread across the new world and many were eliminated. They thought that with their abilities and naturally superior intelligence they would have no problems in this world, but that is now how things went. The technology of Debris were much better than their own and the people they fought were always much more experienced. Superior intellect and memory only goes so far when you are generally inexperienced at the task at hand and the Kesruc were all largely inferior in that department.
Xev 3.0 on the other hand attempted to learn how to fight, gathered up equipment to win her freedom and make her way to the top of this world. She wasn’t expecting that one of the hurdles to accomplishing her goals was that she needed partners that were just as good as her if not better. This lead her to attempting to train up teammates, but many of those who she trained betrayed her or failed to live up to her expectations. Nearly 300 years passed before she met Jason and she thought that she might really have a chance at accomplishing her goal that she had set out to do so long ago.

A Sky of Star and Strength
Jake was just an intelligent kid living a pretty regular life in Mill Creek, Washington. Then the apocalypse happens. Now with his Dad out of the country and totally in yet out his element, this is his story. My take on a system apocalypse based around "life force" as a currency. The main character will have a special power (as will most of the other characters) and be rather OP, you have been warned. Like many of the authors on this site I have no formal writing experience so writing tips and grammar corrections are much appreciated :)
