Albion Shukra, also known by her Skorpe handle, demiurgeQuantified, is one of the trolls in Vast Error. Her associated alchemic sigil is Copper and her horns curl all the way back into themselves.

She was told she was the twelfth and final in a line of extraterrestrial prophets known as Star Children, who spanned across several universes before the final one containing Repiton. She was supposedly destined to become a being of complete conciliation known as 'The Pure Oneself'. This was a lie told to her by her Star Guardian who made a promise to the true twelfth Star Child, her Ancestor, for reasons currently unknown.

She was the third troll introduced.

Biography

Six Sweeps

Nothing is currently known about who Albion was or what Albion looked like at six sweeps.

Pre-game

Shortly after her introduction, Albion uses her computer to enter The Cell after she is messaged by Taz, who'd just dealt with a particularly frustrating exchange with Murrit. Murrit had told Taz about a strange game he'd help put together and that not only would she have to play, she was obligated to do it with Arcjec, Taz's former friend who had spent the better part of two years avoiding Taz after a bad blow up between the two. After a mysterious comment made by Albion (albeit one made jokingly),

Taz asks if Albion might know anything about it. Albion states that she does not she does not what Murrit might be planning but knows that the night was of great importance, as it was the night Repiton would finally crumble and the night she was expect to save it. Taz, a staunch non-believer of Albion's prophetic destiny dismisses the notion. Albion then repeats Murrit's sentiment and states that Taz really should try to reach out the Arcjec and finally try to work out their differences, instead of her merely trying to get his attention. Taz continues upset at the suggestion.

Their conversation ends with Albion going over her destiny to merge with her lusus and salvage the remains of Repiton and the remaining troll species. Taz is left confused and concerned for her moirail. Albion later receives Murrit's memo pertaining to the game and its nature. Albion then speaks to her lusus, a Star Guardian, as she prepares herself to merge with it. The Star Guardian then reveals that there's been a change in plans, and that Repiton are meant for destruction, not salvation.

Shocked at the horrible realization, Albion reaches out to Laivan, who is unfortunately away from his computer. She is then messaged by her matesprit, sanguineAllegory, concerned over Albion's apparent absense. Albion refuses to reply and involve her in troubles.

Albion is then thrust back into her vision with her lusus, and she demands that the lusus explain itself. The Star Guardian repeats that Repiton is unavoidably doomed, and that she is merely destined to leave it. The Star Guardian then tells her that it was fulfilling an obligation to Albion's predecessor -- her ancestor -- to set events into a course that would allow Albion's ancestor to briefly take control of Albion's body and message Dismas telling him of the importance of the events to come, and warn to not "follow credence of the man who spins words like yarn" and to stop "the limeblooded vessel to his heart". Albion is seen staring in astonishment in The Cell as her ancestor takes further control and shows her prophetic visions from the past, present and future.

During the game

Albion has not currently been shown to have entered the game.

Personality and Traits

Albion is a friendly and personable troll who has been noted as her friends' resident shoulder to cry on in times of need. When first introduced, she is a strong believer in the forces of fate and destiny. Having been told all her life that she is the twelfth and final incarnation in a line of inter-dimensional and extraterrestrial line of prophets, she's learned to take great stock in various forms of mystical and religious powers by keeping her body chemistry evened out. She also took great pride in crafting stories from the stars and crafting them in Repitonian Pre-Text to keep up the old traditions of planetary folklore. She has a thing for scented candles and bath bomb-like items called 'glop enhancers' as well.

Prior to the events of the game, Albion was very excited for the promised day where will salvage Repiton and her friends from the end of the world (this day would actually end up being the day that she and her friends are meant to leave to enter the game).

Upon discovering the truth of her supposed destiny and the fact that her Star Guardian had been lying to her all her life as a promise to her Ancestor, Albion is understandably outraged; outraged for the first time in many sweeps, even going through an identity crisis. The fallout from this realization has yet to be seen.

Relationships

Taz

Albion is in a Moraillegence with Taz, although their relationship appears to fluctuate part-time into Auspisticism with Occeus on occasion. Taz has stated that she finds Albion to be a "special kind of scary" and "perfect". Albion is notable among Taz's close relationships in that she is the only troll who is able to placate Taz's aggression, with Taz being outright gentle and thoughtful when interacting with Albion. Taz herself isn't sure how Albion manages to do this.

Taz has specifically stated that she does not share Albion's religious beliefs and more or less thinks of them to be horseshit. This is likely due to Taz's own beliefs within the Mirthamaniacs.

sanguineAllegory

Albion is apparently in a red relationship with SA. She has been shown to care deeply about this relationship, even though she does not allow herself to show it or allow her to interfere in her personal matters. She also did not speak to her on the night she was meant to merge with her Star Guardian, showing she may be rather worried about getting her involved personally in her more serious affairs.

Laivan Ferroo

Although their relationship has not been elaborated on, Albion and Laivan appear to be on good terms and do message one another enough to where Albion feels comfortable in asking Laivan for help.

Dismas Mersiv

Albion appears to be fond of Dismas but has yet to interact with him directly in-comic.

Occeus Coliad

Due to the likely tumultuous relationship between Taz and Occeus, as Taz's moirail, Albion is often pulled to act as the mediator when they enter the ashen quadrant. As the two have yet to interact in-comic, it is unknown what Albion and Occeus' relationship is like.
