<blockquote>
<p>This musing is a work in progress; the character (and stories they're in) are actively developing.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Tskoura - Known by all as "Cocoa", is an Eteral; a specific race of catfolk that originated from the <a href="/Locations/Eastern%20Reclaim.html">Eastern Reclaim</a>. Cocoa stands at 5'6", and stands out from the crowd due to their pink hair color. On the back of Cocoa's neck are two barcode tattoos that identify his identity, as a chattel worker and corporate slave to Syskor.</p>
<h3 id="poached">Poached</h3>
<p>Cocoa's venture into the United Federation was done as a result of being poached from his hometown. When speaking with his handler, Cocoa references his torment and fear that he failed to stay united with his family. He is unsure of the location of his sister, though misses her dearly. As required by law, Cocoa was "integrated"; Taught Common, manners, and how to live life in the Federation; if he ever manages to free himself, he too could enjoy all of the amenities offered to its regular citizens.</p>
<p>The only issue was that due to his build and physical body being weaker, he was considered a "C"-grade stock at best; which hid him from most corporations - Syskor ended up purchasing him for clearance; though later found out that his Correct Calculation Index was extraordinarily high, making him an asset that can get things done quickly and safely.</p>
<p>Cocoa was quickly deployed as an unskilled labor position, specifically wiring up the closed-loop batteries that Syskor androids use - high risk, and low reward. This was in addition to the constant rail-bound state that the bubblegum catboy was punished with; superiors writing up Cocoa for insubordination, and recommend that he remain railbound.</p>
<h3 id="stayingsane">Staying Sane</h3>
<p>Syskor, for a chattel worker, is a horrible place to live, with plenty of chattel workers having a reduced life expectancy of two years, working the same jobs that Cocoa is assigned to. This is on top of the toxic, if not straight hostile environment that is cultivated by the management; where contractors, hourly and salary employees - the ones who get to leave the building when they clock out - go unpunished for tormenting the ones who can't.</p>
<p>And yet, Cocoa has worked in his position for three years - even if the factory has tried multiple times to make the supposed curse a reality, with the catboy having mutilated his body to save contractors who would have killed themselves without his intervention - costing him millions, and permanently securing his tenure, while also being forced to accept the blame of the accident in the first place.</p>
<p>With three years of torture, and his nutrition and hydration intake closely monitored to save cost through malnourishment and dehydration, the once bubbly, warm personality that made Cocoa had been withered to a soulless husk of his former self. Cocoa spoke flat, simple, and short responses, only when asked to. He obeyed every order he was given, as long as it didn't involve himself getting choked out by his own collar.</p>
<p>Luckily, Cocoa was pulled away from his death sentence by his handler, and reassigned to be an assistant- at the cost of his nervous system being replaced - at no cost to him, luckily. </p>
<p>As his nervous system is replaced, Cocoa's handler is able to control the catboy's emotions through neural transmitters; sending impulses that change hormone balances to create the necessary emotional state that Cocoa needs.</p>
