The Augur, Providence is a cyborg from a reclaimed robotic clown from the Saltwater Pier and miscellaneous other parts, whose eyes flicker like the warming and cooling of light bulbs. It is not clear if she was made by a pessimistic queer theorist or if she was that queer theorist before blending herself with machinery.
She has a old reel-to-reel that was used to run the Pier’s advertising (“Be sure the try to dinner special down at Borchelli’s/advertising new rides), and her creator used the reel-to-reel to record personal notes about her family, relationships and life, but also about her hobbies, who she was, and academic studies.
Appearance
She wears clothing with striking colours and sigils on her clothes, and marking on her face. He clothes are tattered, having been cut from the robotic clown costume, with the arms of her clothing baggy enough that they hang down so that the sigils on her flesh/machinery arms are visible (factory seal (made in Palto Alto, made in China, barcodes, etc). She is biracial and looks like Rebecca Walker.
Personality
She is able to provide guidance and information, although her perspective sometimes makes her feel separate from the others in Bluffington Beach. She believes that a looming threat faces Bluffington Beach ("Hope and mischief are fires that we must keep ever burning, or we will face eternal darkness").
Relationships
Samantha
She and Samantha were dating, but their break-up took up the end of the Live character creation episode. In the process, the Augur, Providence unfairly accused Samantha of using her role at her bar as a chance for personal gain. Both concluded that their attention was too split by their busy, socially complex roles in the community for them to date.
Abilities
- Close reading of the holy texts (technical expertise).
- Tripping the circuit (keeping electricity on).
- Whenever someone participates in one of your rituals for the first time, they get a token.
