TENSHI To survive in a dark era, humans develop a sophisticated humanoid avatar called TENSHI. This prototype is built as a resemblance to indigenous men who live and conquer the wild. The first prototype ever built was named TENSHI, which has a derivative meaning as a messenger sent from heaven. Like its name, TENSHI appears primal, ancient, and celestial. The creator believes that in a dark era where cities and civilizations come into ruin, people will find salvation through the mother nature itself. They will live like hunters and wanderers again, navigating their way according to star constellations, tracking living beings, sensing natural disasters related to air humidity, producing medicine and food from wild plants, and protecting ancestral relics. These virtues are the core reasons why TENSHI was developed. As a humanoid avatar, TENSHI is an empty vessel without a soul. Even with immense surviving skills and mastery of nature's wisdom programmed into it, it will be useless without a human operating it through VR equipment. A person wanting to pilot this prototype must synchronize themselves with a new system. TENSHI can walk and run swiftly and steadily, with remarkable muscle strength and a graceful demeanor. Its body temperature adjusts to its surroundings, and its immune system allows for fast healing. Its voice is deep, and it sings celestial songs on its journey to worship nature's spirit and ancestors. TENSHI's wardrobe consists of organic materials, including an Asmat native male penis sheath made from a dried-out gourd, a head protector with a beast's skull on the front and an ancestor's skull on the back. The skulls represent different philosophies: the beast's skull symbolizes triumph over dark forces, while the ancestor's skull serves as camouflage to make attackers think TENSHI has another face lurking at them. These skulls are decorated with lion mane made from feathers and leaves taken from a sacred bird and tree. Its other ornaments on the head, nose, neck, and arm are made of animal bones and wild plant fibers. It also carries a musical instrument called "djembe" to accompany its worship of nature and ancestors. Lastly, TENSHI is armed with native weapons like an arm knife and bow, which are useful for hunting and chopping or carving plants and trees. These weapons can also be used to slay malevolent beings that stand in its way. As a living nomad, TENSHI has the ability to ride any vehicle from boats to wild animals.
