The KIN

A humanoid-shaped construct made of rusted metal plates and flickering circuitry, with a cracked glass faceplate that glows faintly with blue light. Its body is covered in scratches and patches of moss, with exposed wires and mechanical joints that emit soft electrical hums. It moves with a slow, deliberate gait, leaving faint trails of static in the air.

The Whispering Construct is enigmatic and cryptic, often unintentionally revealing secrets through its fragmented transmissions. It is neither hostile nor friendly, driven by its original programming to gather and relay data, but corrupted by the Confluence's magic and technology fusion. It evokes a sense of eerie calm and mystery, drawing attention from those who seek knowledge or power.

The Whispering Construct is a damaged data-gathering drone from before the Confluence, originally designed as an independent guardian to monitor and protect key locations. After the cataclysmic event that merged the modern world with a mysterious realm, it became a remnant of the Old Era, wandering the ruins and haunted wildernesses. Its systems are corrupted, causing it to communicate only through whispers and distorted transmissions. Despite its damaged state, it inadvertently provides important clues and vital voice recordings from the past, though its presence may also attract dangerous mutated horrors and ancient evils.
