Koko? Koko.
Yep, I've decided. My name is now Koko.
Koko, The Pugilistic Machine Empress. Well not really, but maybe eventually? Anyway, my new fridge is done and with a quick teleport using my gun, into the base it went.
Now there's just a stove and then I can start preparing for the eventual encounter with the supernatural.

Four steaks later, I guess I eat more now, and I was ready to rumble. Now then, seeing as I don't really know what kind of supernatural there is in this world, I thought I'd start with a sensor able to pick up on various energies in the surroundings.
I started with gathering a few old radios and some scrap metal, before sorting through the options that popped up.
Settling on a design that focuses more on accuracy than range, I set to work. Starting with the inner workings, I first made a module which would pick up on the various frequencies the energies generated, I also added in a very special chip that would make it much easier to use.
Then I started on the power source which in this case was a super-charged battery cell that would let it function for at least a few years at my estimations before making the exterior and viola. A supernatural radar.
It kind of reminded me of a box like tv with a few odd pieces sticking out here and there. However the weirdest thing was that it didn't have any visible operating methods, which is where the chip comes in.
See I had a thought, what if I made an administrator chip that could control other machines through a smiliar chip emulating technopathy to an extent? And since I didn't want anyone else be able to just knock it off me and therefore cut my connection with the machines I was controlling, I decided to make the administrator ship styled as a mask that encompassed the lower half of my face from upper nose to my chin. And on top of that, since I made it in my Workshop I could just summon it whenever I wanted.
The mask itself was made out of a black metal I called Scrappal, since it was literally made out of various different metals I synthesized together, with glowing red lines running through the top just underneath my eyes. On the cheeks of the mask sat two speakers that could be dialled up to the extreme, anyone getting too close was in for a nasty surprise, and just for intimidation purposes I fashioned the mask after a shark's jaw completed with jagged teeth.
It looked positively badass.
"Hehe~ I'm a genius!"
First Encounter
A few days later, I had a pretty nice setup going for me. Feeling like the radar could be improved upon further, I installed a transmitter and made a bunch of amplifier relays that I set up so the radar would cover the whole scrapyard, and slightly beyond.
After that, I gathered everything that pinged on the scans into a pile which it was much easier with my newfound tactile telekinesis, since I was much stronger now. Anyway.
Looking at the heap of busted lightsabers and guns, I thought about what weapon I wanted to use, since I'm sure I will be fighting eventually.
I haven't really built anything strictly offensive yet, since I didn't really see the need, but I kind of want to expand my radar to cover the whole city and see if anything pops up, as for a weapon though? I don't know if it's my newfound strength, but I sort of want to just punch people. Simple and easy, you know?
With that in mind, I entered my Workshop space and started with making a skeleton frame that would go over my arms and started beefing it up. Something I thought would be cool would be a sort of explosive air release that would make my punches even more powerful, so I created a combustion device, a few vents on my elbows pointing backwards and a few flaps that would help directing the force to make the release more efficient.
As for protection, I decided to leave most of the heavy work to my TT, so I ended up creating a few recievers in the gauntlets that when flooded with psychic energy would create a layer of protection around me and amplify it. Being pretty happy with this for a base model, I put it on for some field tests.
A few hours of ironing out the kinks later, and it was done. Standing in front of a cracked mirror and looking over it, I was pretty happy with how it turned out.
The gauntlets themselves were sort of bulky but solid looking with squarish metal plates running up my arms for flexibility. The elbows were flaring out slightly to make space for the combustion mechanism with a few fins higher up, while my shoulders had squarish shoulder pauldrons.
Glinting in a metallic black accompanied by the 'Voom~' noise that my constructs generated it looked awesome. Throwing a punch, the sound of a tank firing rang out as my arm shot forward while the force exerted kicked up dust in a circle around me as a bunch of smoke shot out of the vents.
Looking down while clenching and unclenching my hand, I could feel a slightly too wide smile make it's way unto my face.

A few days later I was walking through the town, having donned my mask, while following the signal my radar picked up, the last few days I used the cover of the night combinted with a belt that lowered my presence to set up the amplifiers through the city, and although there were multiple signals, this one suddenly popped up a while ago and it's pretty strong.

Looking around me I was currently on the edge of the city where a few abandoned looking warehouses were located. Walking up to the building the signal pointed to, I walked around the warehouse looking through the odd hole here and there for my target before spotting it leaning against the wall, panting.
