"So, I got carried away..." Nyx muttered to himself, knowing that someone was likely listening. Even more likely making his new life into soke kind of novel that he'd read in his past life.
Currently, he was looking at the finished prototype of the 'dupli-arms' He had wanted to make, which somehow ended up being an entire full sized android.
The android was humanoid, but it didn't have any features as the head was still partially incomplete. If you want a mental image, imagine one of Victor's followers after he goes full robo-pyscho, because that's what he based the design on.
The thought process he went through is, why just have a second pair of hands when I can make an entirely separate body to do stuff for me?
He still made that second pair though.
Nyx had also made the android so it would be powered by an Arcane Core, which is what he's started calling the perfected hextec cores.
It wouldn't ever be given 'life' like Axel, especially because he still doesn't know how that particular experiment will end up, but it would be the perfect factory line.
Perfect accuracy, little to no mistakes due to programming: Perfect for mass production.
Smiling awkwardly, Nyx decided to move on to the next line of business: The Kirammans.
During his 'inventor mode', Nyx had also perfected the portable generator and had even drawn up designs for a massive one that would be able to feel itself with a bit of a kick and a pinch of Arcane energy.
Hopefully, he'd meet Jayce and Victor so he could work on their Hexcore and perfect it so the Void wouldn't corrupt it... at least in this AU.
Anyway, the new generator was a small box a bit too big to be held in one hand. When you pressed down on one side, it would click before expanding outward. Two parts would pop out: The hand crank and cord which would plug into whatever you wanted to power.
Packing up a few of these, Nyx put then as well as his designs into a good looking suit case before changing. It was a bit temporary seeing as his next destination was a tailor, but he wasn't on an op so he didn't want to walk around Stiltover looking like a thug dressed in all black with a mending wolf mask on his face.
Oh yeah, he'd made a new mask that had a wolf-like image on it. Kinda like how Ekko's owl mask, but in black and red.
Anyway, the ride up to Piltover didn't take long. He'd paid a silver to ride the elevator before sulking into the corner.
There weren't many people in there, but one did stand out. A younger man with a hood covering his face. How did Nyx know he was young? No idea, he just assumed it was his smell or something.
Looking a bit closer, his eyes glowed a soft red as his night vision flickered on, and he saw Jayce's face under there.
'Did he go looking for more crystals?' Shaking his head, Nyx walked up to him as they were leaving the elevator, passing him a few words as they parted.
"Next time, either act like you're too strong to be robbed, or so weak you have nothing, Stilty." Glancing under his hood, Nyx smirked at his surprise before slinging off to reach his tailor.
Strolling inside, Nyx put his suitcase down before calling out to the tailor. "Mr. Pilot (pilo)! How are you today?"
The old man glanced up from his desk before smiling under his thick white beard. "Hey kiddo! You here to pick up that fancy shmancy suit of yours are ya?"
Nyx nodded, so Mr. Pilot dipped into the back before coming out with an outfit inside of a plastic baggy. "Here ya go champ. You can change in one of the rooms over to the side since ya already paid the other day."
Nyx nodded again, "Thank you for your help Mr. Pilot! I really meed this job."
The older man waved him off. "What'cha mean? You paid full price and even tipped me, it's the least I could do. And I told you to call me Chance already!"
"Haha, alright Chance, let me get changed so you can see the fruits of your labor." He laughed, stepping into the changing room. "Sounds good!"
(Rustling)
Coming out of the room, Chance gave Nyx a slow clap as the boy spread his arms out, twirled and even gave the kid man a bow.
"Kid, you should see about being a model with that face."
Now it was Nyx's turn to wave him off. "Ahh, I'm much better at making things than wearing them thank you."
Chance raised his eyebrow. "Making things? You mentioned that last time, are you a tailer too?"
"Nah, I'm an engineer. Actually right after this I'm going up to interview with the Kirammans."
"Oh! Now that's a job allright! Wish ya luck, Nyx."
Nyx grabbed his suitcase and waved to the old man. "See you around, Mr. Pilot!"
"It's still Chance ya blockhead!"

Author here, so like this was a short chapter and people have been bugging me about what he looks like because I was too lazy to deal with AI so I'm gonna put a bunch of different versions while I also put a worded description here. Sorry for the trouble peeps!
Nyx Ulfr is a young man just over 17 years old. He's bigger and more mature looking than his peers of the same age, so he's currently floating at around 6'2". To go alongside this, he's also muscular- but not too much. He has a very lean build while still managing to look muscular and intimidating when he needs to be as it was a need growing up in the undercity.
As far as facial features go, he has no facial hair yet, but if you look close enough you can see it trying to grow out. He has sharp, intense reddish-brown eyes that seem to draw those around him into them. He has a decently strong jawline from his father, who he barely remembers, but his mother's side has given him a more objectively beautiful appearance while still looking masculine.
In a very short and non-descriptive version, he is a taller and more muscular version of Victor. He actually looks so much like him that if you were to see them at a distance, you could confuse them for eachother. Though when you get closer it is much more obvious who's who.
It will be mentioned later on, but he also has a set of red, crystalline earrings from his mother that he wears everyday.
I hope that satisfied y'all, and if you need a better image than what I've provided, feel free to try out AI's online because I couldn't get exactly what I wanted. If you do fine and like a picture, go ahead and post it down below.
Anyway thanks for your support!
