Background
Shone grew up with a nonverbal, overweight father who relied on an electric wheelchair to get around. His father was a victim of the high crime rates in the City, and passed in a random assault. Left an orphan, Shone had little will to survive.

Shone, as Agent of Nyeve
Nyeve, as the watchwoman of the City’s organized and spontaneous criminal activity, recruits Shone in her operation. Shone was originally only fascinated with the illusion of seeing his father - who loved sightseeing on the City’s numerous, sky-high trains - enjoy the city once more. Nyeve did not stop Shone from the futile project of restoring his father’s body to a normal appearance. They placed the restored body on his reprogrammed electric wheelchair, which carried the body around the city, riding trains and sightseeing without a care.

The illusion comes to an end when the father, an obvious target of crime, is involved in a minor robbery months later. The assailant was arrested by police on the spot thanks to Shone’s monitoring of the father-wheelchair system 24/7. Instead of an angry Shone, Nyeve is surprised to see Shone relieved. "“There he is, that is the man I am proud of. He helped bear the burden of one more crime which could have been committed on a real human being. My father is a hero...he helped bait out a criminal, Nyeve. I know that’s what he would have wanted, too, if he could talk and move. He would have wanted to help you, Nyeve.” - Shone, Candidate of Roars"

The Birth of the Android Empire
After the incident, Shone dedicates every waking hour to advance research on the programming of androids. With Nyeve ’s ability to reorder the energy level and entropy state of electrons as a Yemog, the two are able to mass produce androids with human exteriors (usually taken from a criminal post death-penalty) and sophisticated programming to mimic real human beings. The human exterior is often left battered and frail, to establish an entire system of easy-targets and easy-victims roaming and monitoring the numerous towers of The Pinnacle of Man-Kings. Rates of spontaneous crime committed against living human beings sharply decline.

Shone’s Glyptic: the Zeata
Shone unlocks his glyptic in the process of programming his father’s electric wheelchair and the masses of bait-androids for Nyeve’s crime-fighting operation.

“The Zeata is the summation of laws that describe how a person will react to any event that could happen to them in the world. Although complex, this set of reactions is not infinite, and therefore the Zeata of each and every individual can be constrained and defined.

Once defined, a person cannot disobey their Zeata - the Zeata is the perfect summation of an individual’s responses. An individual can only choose to switch to a new Zeata - at any given moment, all individuals possess a Zeata.

To be in denial or utter ignorance of one’s Zeata is not life. If one cannot be aware of why they do the things they do, why they say the things they say, why they feel the things they feel…they are not living a life, but they are having their entire lives - their every single response - handed to them. They cannot realize that behind their choices, a Zeata completely governs and controls them. To be aware of the Zeata is the first step to being able to choose a Zeata. If you do not like your current Zeata, what is it that you long to do, say, and feel? The answer to this question can be found, please, Ea...search. I will always be here to support you.” Shone, Candidate of Roars to Ea, Candidate of Airson
