Return to Aeon Reborn
Is a living program native to one of the data-storage dimensions built and maintained by the villainous 'Vanguard, Incorporated'. Like eveything else in its home dimension, "Prince" was created by VI member "Dead Head", a brilliant but evil inventor and theoretical scientist, obsessed first and foremost with the creation and recreational use of Tellurically active psychodelics. While a visitor to the laboratory of Dr. Oswald Nichodemus Midas, Alan York AKA Dr. Hawking was witness to a break in the dimensional barrier, through which "Prince" passed via an infrared transmission and into Hawking's Eufiber suit. "Prince" found the morphic nanite colony that is a suit of Eufiber to be a much more pleasant home than any it had known before (and, in any event, the possibility of returning to its native dimension quickly disapeared). Wishing to stay, it quickly struck a deal with Hawking to provide informational assistance in exchange for permission to live inside his clothes.
"Prince" (named such by Hawking, in response to the impossibility of pronouncing the program's original designation) is a living being who both consumes and excretes information. It has a particular knack for physics and mathematics, both theoretical and applied. It is capable of reshaping the Eufiber of Hawking's suit, and has used this ability to "speak" by scrolling text across the fabric. It has since developed the means to speak in audio through a voice synthesiser (giving "Prince" a voice most often associated in the real world with Professor Steven William Hawking of Cambridge - who, it should be noted, does not exist in the Aeon Reborn setting).
