Ancestors of Snippy

When Mr. Snippy was captured by the Arbitrator, he was contained within a stasis field together with the Biomatrix and the mug. Since the sniper did not want to witness the slow destruction of Earth by the black hole the Arbitrator created, he requested the Biomass to create a memory for him, he could escape to instead. Taking his wish to get as far as possible away from the depressing event a little too literally, the Biomatrix recreated not one of Snippy's own memories, but rather genetical memories from his ancestors for him. While Biomatrix had promised not to interfere with the events unfolding for the sniper, it broke its promise on the discovery of an anomaly in Snippy's genetical memory.

The memories are not 100% historically accurate, neither are they real time-travel. So nothing Snippy will do in those memories will change events, that already have happened. The concept is somewhat similar to using a holodeck from Star Trek.

While the Biomatrix is keeping up the illusion for Snippy, it seems as well to have an eye on the events unfolding on the Earth surface, keeping the sniper updated by imbedding 'nightmares' into the memories.

So far Snippy has seen memories of an ancestor and what appears to be an offspring of his:

Caveman

Time: Suspected previous Earth Ice-age

Gender: Male

Occupation: Hunter

Weapons: Spear

Upon awakening this ancestor drew pictures of his latest nighmare on the walls of his cave. He remembered being accused to be a being called 'Loki' (Captain) and black fire (black hole) consuming the Earth. He prefered to live a solitary life and was proud of his hunting skills. While searching for food in a glacial crevasse he discovered an artifact not belonging into his time, which attracted the attention of the Biomatrix . Instead of himself, the caveman saw Mr. Snippy in his reflection in the ice.

Lady Amber of Snippy

Time: Suspected future (Snippy's descendant)

Gender: Female

Occupation: Noblewoman

Weapons: Unknown

Amber is a young woman with very long red hair. Her dreams are showing her nightmares of a dead world and a figure without a face or the faces of millions. In her dreams the faceless one (Captain) is planning to consume the dark vortex (black hole) with a straw. Furthermore, her dreams tell her that she is the faceless one's servant, and that it will come searching for her. Upon awakening she decides to visit her guardian angel, a being she remembers to have always seen in mirrors instead of her own reflection. Amber refers to her angel as her black and white knight. Her reflection turns out to show Sniper (Charles Snippy).

During the day Amber is warned by a knight of the chalice, that admins took over the capital and sent mods armed with the word to get rid of the local hosts.

Amber does not believe in an uprising of the admins and instead assumes the chalice knight went insane while searching for the infinite grail. She decides to stay in her home and await, whatever may come.

Amber doesn't pay attention to the Lifealope-bird and the Cancer-crow fighting in the treetops.

It seems the admins and mods are a fraction of followers of the first architekt (Dr. Gromov), who are able to summon mostly useless items from the past (single shoes, stretchy pants, cars, moustachs etc.). They have been searching for the first architekts journal, an item as unlikely to exist as the infinite chalice.

While Amber watches a group of Lifewalkers, apparently offspring of the Lifealope, a mod on horseback approaches and summons hellfire down on her.

In Amber's time the moon shows the G-symbol of the Good Directorate Inc. and is partially destroyed.
