Oracle

The Oracle of Secoria, or just Oracle, is an immortal bio-construct built by the now extinct inhabitants of the Marine planet Secoria. Though the Secorians are long-gone, Oracle herself has become an intergalactic celebrity, drawing in tourists and customers from throughout the universe. Though she has allied with the UDS for protection, she offers her renowned powers of divination to anyone willing to meet her price: One hot, tasty plate of spaghetti, the only food the Oracle eats.

Appearance and Personality
Records indicate that Oracle was built to resemble a goddess in the Secorian Pantheon who represented the mischievous nature of truth. In keeping with her inspiration, Oracle herself is a playful being who tends to avoid speaking directly. Though she comes off as carefree to most, some believe that her lack of expressive emotional programming hampers her ability to show emotions such as anger, sadness and disgust, even if those emotions are present within her. This idea is supported by Oracle's capriciousness, as she has been known to refuse service and even chase potential customers out of her temple in response to insults they did not know they inflicted.

Despite her divine inspiration, Oracle's jointless limbs and large belly are atypical of Secorian design, and seem to indicate that Oracle was meant to play a unique and significant role in Secorian society. Ironically, she failed to provide her creators with the knowledge sufficient to prevent their own extinction, the cause of which is hotly debated.

Powers
Though the Oracle appears overburdened by her spherical belly, this large stomach is in fact a permanent part of her physiology. Oracle's belly serves a dual purpose: it is the magnetic core which holds together her mostly jointless limbs; and it acts as a canvas upon which she projects her visions of the future. Rubbing Oracle's belly after paying her spaghetti toll and asking a question will allow the viewer to glimpse a future event that pertains to the question they asked. These visions will not always be clearly linked to said question, thus requiring the viewer to perform some mental legwork of their own. Nevertheless, this service has been highly sought after for thousands of years by both individuals and representatives of broader entities alike.

Oracle's drawback is her own finickiness: as a bio-construct, she claims that spaghetti is the fuel which allows her to produce her visions. If not provided with adequate spaghetti, or if abused regularly and with inferior pasta, Oracle is known to refuse a customer service. Though many have conspired to capture or subdue Oracle in order to keep her at their disposal, none have succeeded, and fewer have lived to tell about it. Those who have claim that Oracle possesses incontestable psychokinetic power, able to disintegrate a potential captor with nothing but her mind if threatened. Oracle herself claims this is an automated defense system programmed by her long dead creators.

Even if one were to subdue the Oracle, there remains the fact that she is bound to her small temple on the surface of Secoria and physically cannot leave due to an intense magnetism between her and the temple. Because attempts have been made to sabotage the temple in hopes of nullifying this magnetism, the UDS now regularly patrols Secorian space, silently scanning any ships that would approach the planet's surface.
