Delegates are synthetic people created from Divines.
They are "carved away" like "slivers" from the whole of the Divine, and so they represent aspects of whatever Divine they were made from. This process is torture for the source Divine.[1]
Many Delegates can be made from a single Divine, though as each Delegate is created, the source Divine loses the aspect of itself that the Delegate embodies. The Divine, Arbitrage describes them as "abominations" and a "failed experiment".[2]
Appearance
Delegates generally have humanoid, human-sized frames. They are compared to the robots in Binary Domain: visible joints, ceramic plates rather than metal, and slits/hatches in place of a mouth (see also: comic book Iron Man).[3]
History
Delegates were developed as the Crown of Glass and early Divine Principality worked out how to break Gumption apart to put it into other Divines.[3]
Delegates are enslaved by the Fabreal Duchy; they are the lowest on the social hierarchy, whose exploitation enables the function of the Duchy's infrastructure. August Righteousness secretly operated a Delegate resistance movement named Reunion, which is now in open rebellion and works with a group of Swordbreakers and Kalar Anakalar's Giantkillers as the military faction Jade Kill.
