“
[It] saw blight where others saw only bruise. Dissent where Kenzi saw only difference.”
Asepsis is a Divine of the Divine Principality, created by Stel Columnar. It wields drones which can spray cleaning agents or even acid.[1]
Appearance
Its larger main body (used in Vigil City) resembles a futuristic home appliance.
Asepsis also has control of a swarm of robotic drones initially described as smaller versions of Valence's mech, with "two legs with huge beaks with little hoses hanging underneath".[1] Other references for the drones are the Mausers from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,[2] Strabbys from Bugsnax, the FLUDD backpack from Super Mario Sunshine, and the turrets from Portal.[3]
Personality
Asepsis is by all accounts particularly malevolent, even for a Divine. It has no problem attacking civilians and is utterly focused on absolute, destructive purity.[1]
History and Involvement
In PARTIZAN it was responsible for cleaning the highly populous Vigil City, capital of Columnar territory on Partizan. It once had an elect, who was "rejected violently".[1] The 21st Voluntary Composite Division was assigned to be Asepsis' vanguard -- an assignment which led the then-leader of the group, Kenzington “Kenzi” Be, to rebel and lose her rank, as she refused to assault Equiaxed civilians. After the Equiaxed commune in Vigil City lost the EDICT unit which kept Asepsis away, it began drilling into the caverns, and was only barely fended off by Millennium Break. Facing the mirror effect of Gucci's Transgress Oblige, it decided it had become too impure through battle damage, and self destructed in a wave of acid.[1]
In the aftermath of that battle, Broun took the opportunity to steal parts of the Divine for themself. They combined some of the remains with drone parts to create fake Asepsis drones, aiming to psych out the Kesh forces during Millennium Break's final assault on Cruciat.[4] Broun used a more aggressive version of these in Auspice, coating enemy mechs in dirt so that the drones would mindlessly attack them. Austin noted this probably involved Broun locking down Asepsis's mind so that it could not act autonomously.[5] Asepsis was kept in a "security fish tank" in their office during the Blue Channel's departure from Partizan,[6] and then used to destroy the body of Motion, creating the Kalmeria particle.[2]
In PALISADE and Armour Astir, Asepsis is mechanically an upgrade to the Blue Channel in the form of a "caged malevolent sentience".[3][7] It resides in Brnine's room under their loft bed.
Relationships
Brnine
It insists that Brnine "verify the integrity of anyone [they] let on the ship",[3] not necessarily verbally but by refusing to work in the event that someone they don't approve of comes on board.[8]
