#Bertram the marionette

[snapdragen0artist]

I got some art work for Halloween and I have this series I made.

Honey, the Dolls Are Talking Again (right in the comments if you get the reference) is to really quick some up is a mixture of slasher and horror movie homage who are trying to fight off wannabe explorers or the house being repossessed because the owner, Celic, is technically dead.

Celic the Shakespearean ghost and his partner Ambrose, the doll cursed with blood lust.

Cecil was a actor in 1600s who gained some success for his age. He was estranged from his family because of how they spoiled his older sister who treated him horribly. He was living well for himself till his sister came and killed him in side his home. He haunted the place for centuries, scarring off trespassers and trying to ‘live’ then best he could with his secession until a odd doll broken in to his home. Ambrose couldn’t remember how he ended up in Celic’s home, he just remembered being created and suddenly haven’t the desire need for blood and to kill. He was on a ‘murder run’ for a while, finding who ever he could until he found himself in front of a ghost. They struck up a conversation, Ambrose didn’t feel like he had to kill while talking to the ghost, they left on good terms but they kept coming back. Celic and Ambrose would take and scare some of the people who would break in until Celic asked Ambrose to stay. The odd pear, the two of them, but that doesn’t stop them from loving each other in their strange ways. Celic is the owner of the house and landlord to the other residence. They live on the first floor.

Giovanna the Vampire (dhampir) and her dolls/caretakers Teddybear (Teddy), Dolly Doll (Dolly), and Jack-in-the-box (Jack)

Giovanna was outcasted from her clan because of her haft human blood and found refuge with three haunted dolls who took her in. They went from one abandoned place to another till they came across a old house with a open side basement. Trying to go in, they were all shocked when Giovanna couldn’t go in, meaning someone owned it. They decided to see if they could sneak their way in with the probability old person who lived there. They were shocked to find a ghost who after a conversation gave them a key and let them take the basement.

And finally Boston the science experiment gone wrong and his imps marionettes Erna, Bertram, and Engle

Boston escaped from the lab that made him and found momentary safety in small shack where he found a dead body and the marionettes he had brought to life with a ritual with the devil. They were wary at first but they eventually grew attached to him and they went on a journey to find a better home. They soon found a old house that looked promising. Boston accidentally broke the door down while Ambrose was sharpening his knives his the living room. Celic and Ambrose made a deal with Boston that if he fixed the damage he caused then he and his marionettes could stay there. They take residence on the second floor/attic.

And here’s something funny with the bfs

This file contains a list of novels and stories which contain one or more Artificial Intelligence (AI) characters.  Most of characters whose intelligence places a title on this list are effected or affected through the use of hardware, software or genetic alteration (rarely).  Additions and corrections would be most appreciated as the list compiler <Garet Sheppard> has not read all of the works listed here - or even a significant portion, and will probably never have a chance to do so. My thanks to Dan Bloch and Robert Stanley for suggestions, ideasand editing.

expanded definitions:

  All of the following should be able to pass the Turing test,  and should be/have been (at the minimum in their original forms) products of human or alien intelligence.  "Standard" definitions of intelligence apply.

 androids (A) - robots in humanoid form, these can be mechanical and/or organic (_Do androids Dream of Electric Sheep_).

 computer systems (C) - these range in size and type from a fair sized mini computer (_Ariel_) to an planetary

     computer (_Colossus_) to a galactic network with one  single mind (_Speaker for the Dead_).

 humans in computerized/program/digitized form (H) - these tend to be copies of people which only exist in computerized form - such as the hacker in (_Neuromancer_) and folks of City Memory in (_Eon_).

 non-mechanical, human created intelligences (N) - beings  which have been (in most cases) genetically altered or are biological (_Blood Music_).  NOT forced evolution 

 other intelligences (O) - beings which are difficult to categorize: anything Berserker, tanks, books, planets,  planets (Asimov's Gaia), satellites, etc.  Where (O) is used, the particular form has also been named when known.

 programs (P) - able to move independently from one computer system to another, usually created by a program(mer) _The Adolescence or P1_).

 robots (R) - constitute functional and specialized beings which are mobile and are not (S) or (P).  Anything between vaguely humanoid (Dr. Who's Cybermen) and computers on wheels (R2D2) can be considered robots of the 'functional'  robot class.  'Specialized' robots are those which are geared/optimized to performing one job - they can look like  either androids (The Terminator) or functional robots (Val's  from _Pirates of the Thunder_).

 ships/computer systems (S) - essentially an (A) which is only mobile in the form of a (star) ship (_Pirates of the Thunder_). However, there are cases where the (S) is essentially a well programmed (R) which is only mobile as stated (_The Number of the Beast_).

 cyborgs/mechanical humans (Y) - strictly speaking these are not  AI. The definition here is that the (Y) is either (1) a human  brain in control of a computer system/star ship (_The Ship Who Sang_) where at the very least the person's brain has  been modified to contain computerized parts (_The Rapture Effect?_) (Did you ever wish that you could have a math co-processor?). (Y)'s are NOT (for the purpose of this  list) organic beings whose natural body parts have beenreplaced by mechanical ones (ie. Luke Skywalker after his forearm was severed, or bionic people). unsure/no idea (?) - just what it says, so someone PLEASE read  it and tell me what type is is and whether it belongs here. 

evolved AI being (e) - usually begin as man-made devices hich then develop intelligence on their own (_Valentina_).
