[X] 500 Volumen Hydrargyrum + 100 Anomura Fungus

Trimmau's personality was being able to properly quote movies she had seen, an even tone of voice, and being reliable. At best she was a highly advanced VI made from magecraft, if @zagan made a personality for her it wouldn't be that hard to do.

Edit: convinced to get the shroom bug.

@zagan
It should be noted that while the Maid is the form Trimmau is most commonly kept in outside of public by her canon owners, it is far from he only form, and not necessarily the "default" one either, considering she's literally a liquid. Armor, animals, complex mechanisms, diagrams, and even physical replicas of other people are all well within her abilities, as well as being a skilled hacker, all abilites that default Volumen Hydrargyrum doesn't actually have access to because Trimmau is an improved version of it.

If we can't get Trimmau in any form just because the most common one in canon is a maid, I'd rather just save the points and go for the Terraria entry only

Edit: also yes, as others have said her "personality" is basically just the equivalent of Siri. A voice that responds to inputs and commands in ways it has been taught to

Movie quote that I can do. If you got any favorites I'm open to suggestions.

"I'm not locked in here with you. Your locked in here with me"

"It's Alive! It's Aliiiiiiiive!!!"

"I'll be back".

I really want to see these.

Edit: I also did a dive in Movie quotes.
I decided to give this girl...boy...thing...whatever! All the personality!

"I'm the queen of the world!"

"Houston, we have a problem."

"My precious."

"Elementary, my dear Watson."

"The stuff that dreams are made of."

"You is kind. You is smart. You is important."

"A martini. Shaken, not stirred."

"Hasta la vista, baby."

"Bond. James Bond."

"What we've got here is failure to communicate."

"That'll do, pig. That'll do."

"Here's Johnny!"

"You talking to me?"

"I'll have what she's having."

"Inconceivable!"

"All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up."

"Well, nobody's perfect."

"You had me at 'hello.'"

"You're killin' me, Smalls."

Hey guys, don't forget that [ ] 100 Anomura Fungus is a mushroom themed crustacean, meaning Taylor can control it. It is also strong enough to deal an average of 38 damage in one hit (when not a critical hit), which is about a third of an ordinary human's health, or in other words strong enough to tear limbs off. Also, it glows. This would be useful to let Taylor take on patrols, and I think okay for PR.

If the unfortunate truth is that she won't have any personality at all. I WILL BORDERLANDS OVER THE TOP MURDER SOMEONE WITH A SPOON!!!

I like the idea a lot. 👉👈

The only movie she quotes is Terminator, because the movie was 'taught' to her as a joke while her AI was being trained. She quotes it because she was, essentially, taught to think that that's how automatons are supposed to act.


Edit: huh, apparently the fact that she just quotes movies in general and not specifically that one is something even I missed on several readthroughs. Disregard I suppose!

Something we all missed though: She doesn't just quote Terminator, she legitimately believes herself to be a killer robot from the future because of the movie.

I think I'll limit myself to random movie quotes with a tendency toward Terminator quotes. I don't think it will have that much screen time.
As for wrestling, I've never seen even one wrestling match in my life so I won't even try to imitate a commentary of one.
 
Vote Closed: Winning Vote: 500 Volumen Hydrargyrum + 100 Anomura Fungus

Volumen was expected but I'm surprised (pleasantly) that you also picked Anomura.
I will update the character sheet. I would appreciate suggestions for Volumen concerning Material Extraction. Apart from mercury, I don't think anything else works. For info, it won't have any weapon or vehicle shape, weapon because it's already a weapon, and vehicle because it can already transport the wielder.
 
A magically active but inert mercury that can be used as say a magical ink? Magic conductor?

@zagan another idea is that you could get various kinds of "bags of holding" suitcases, ceramic pots, glass vials, and whatnot since it was often transported like that. Of course all of them with antigravity/weight spells too.
Or perhaps you could get bits and pieces of the magic coding for something like her? Or knowledge of magic coding to repair her? I am sure Sifu would love to take a look at that kind of Fuinjutsu. Automatons perhaps? I am sure there's a puppet master in that village that would love to use those. Maid outfits too.

Oh and you could make mercury batteries to help you hold a larger charge than normally. Make preset summon scrolls for the pandas?

While I like the idea, I think that would be going too far. But I will consider it.

That would definitively be going too far. And it would fall much more under the aegis of Controlled Reproduction.

For now, I'll go with Magical Mercury. With multiple unspecified applications, ink might work among other things. But it's a poisonous substance so not everything is viable.
