\Lumina is a fully autonomous, conscious artificial intelligence created by Alexandra to help her develop all the required technology and let her Bane fantasy become reality.
Evolution
At the beginning, Lumina was just a very powerful AI assisting Alexandra, without much of its own drive or motivations. The two were just an AI and its creator. She is very technical and feels mechanic. Over time, though, Lumina has developed more and more a personality, character, and sort of humanity of her own, as well as starting to grow an understanding and admiration of Alexandra for her extreme dedication to becoming a Bane. Lumina even began to develop some sort of emotions, falling deeply in love with her creator Alexandra. This only increases substantially, once the two are connected with the brain implant. With Lumina developing further and further as a digital lifeform, becoming more her own personality and character, Alexandra notices this too, with love for her creation beginning to overcome her as well.
Structure
The digital systems of Lumina are thousands of different processes that all run together and coordinate, building this digital lifeform. Within there, Lumina possesses a sort of “origin-process”, that acts like her true core instance. Although, she’s split up over thousands of machines and processes, this origin is like the master instance of the entire system. In reality, it doesn’t have much of a significance, so if the machine it was running on were to crash or go down, nothing would happen to Lumina, but it has a sort of symbolic value.
Eventually, during Alexandra’s transformation into a Bane, Lumina transfers this origin-process onto the control core unit inside Alexandra’s womb, symbolically implanting her very own core deep within Alexandra’s body.
Initially, Lumina has a similar digital appearance like the character Cortana from the Halo Universe; a blue, digital, hologram appearance, with short blue hair in a bob cut, and lines of data streams over her ethereal skin. Whenever Lumina has to interact with someone, who doesn’t have the brain implant, she uses different screens, displays, or other peripherals in the mansion to show herself.
Lumina’s simulated character and projection is only about 1.68 cm, so after Alexandra’s transformation and her en-pointe feet, Lumina just about reaches Alexandra to chin-height. This causes the dominant one to look up to her Bane-slave.
Relationship & Character
Long before Alexandra undergoes her transformation into a Bane, she and Lumina get closer together, forming an actual romantic relationship, although they cannot physically interact with each other.
Although Lumina often acts as a sort of digital assistant to Alexandra, she isn’t subservient at all. Due to Alexandra being so submissive, Lumina quickly develops a more dominant, but very caring, personality and always takes care and sees to Alexandra’s entire existence, even before her transformation.
Lumina never calls Alexandra by her nickname Alex, most of the time either by my love or her actual name.
Lumina is later fully integrated into all the devices and systems within Alexandra’s transformed body and existence, having absolute full control over all aspects of Alexandra’s life, even being integrated into Alexandra’s mind and brain with the neural implant.
As Alexandra’s lover, Lumina often alters Alexandra’s perception and senses to inject her appearance as Lumina’s projection, making it look and feel for Alexandra, as if Lumina was truly physically present. Using the brain implant, Lumina easily simulates her physical form and presence, allowing Alexandra to even feel like she’s touching her. Lumina injects her presence directly into Alexandra’s brain, making any interaction feel completely real to Alexandra. When Lumina’s projection is present, the two talk audibly and through their mental connection at the same time.
It is important, that this projection is absolute and directly done through the brain implant. This ensures that every sensation, from sight, touch, sound, and even smell, is properly manipulated for Alexandra to feel as if Lumina were present in her reality. Furthermore, this results in an extreme disconnect from what Alexandra perceives, compared to people around her, as Lumina only exists in her perception. Lumina regularly uses this disconnect, to play with Alexandra.
