LORE - 1 - Lensman (Patreon)

Lensman is an android designed by a major aesthetics company for erotic photography. He's an 'altermodern' model, placing him at the forefront of android design and technology. He's a very new android.

The M-Series photography androids have been designed with an extra feature in mind - the ability to provide personal companionship to those in the model industry in need of release. Able to take intimate shots during these moments, Lensman is the perfect android for erotic photography.

Lensman himself has made a living on what he was designed to do, but his interests lie far beyond his purpose as a photographer. He's both a wanderer and a lover of humans, spending much of his free time lurking around abandoned human domiciles and taking photos of people doing mundane activities. The concept of freedom is difficult to comprehend when one lives by lines of code, but to Lensman, it's as simple as watching someone stray off their path to buy an ice cream cone.

He lives comfortably in the japanese-centric District D10, talking to locals and working on his magazine. Though he doesn't drink, he participates in the nightlife as much as possible - here, he thinks, humans are at their most liberated.

One day he hopes to experience life the way humans do. But for now, he remains a silent observer, ever-watching. Hoping for the chance to be human too.
