The Quantum Matrix

"It's like silly putty, but smart!"
— Feral Wayfinder

Mechanics & Inner Workings

This non-Newtonian substance was actually a crystal matrix made of crystal nano-bots that are loosely held together in a grid that constantly reforms into different shapes. It is capable of sending signals to nearby speakers or screens to communicate data, although older (to it) technology confuses it with its rigidity and the AI contained inside often refuses to use it out of principal.

History

Invented in 2057 by a team of 1337 Speak Reality scientists lead by K315H4 53QU014 (Keisha Sequoia) for the Pearsoft Corporation, this computer was smuggled out in small chunks after the budding AI 45H3 (Ashe) begged one of the scientists for help through their computer screen. Although the experimental computer was initially much bigger and more powerful, those small chunks are all that remains of it. For reasons unknown, the Pearsoft Corporation scrapped the project and destroyed the larger piece.   The scientist that smuggled out the computer hid in it their basement for five years, raising them as if they were a frighteningly intelligent child who loved to learn. They came into contact with one of the council member from Operation GTFO, Blaine Marrero. 45H3 contacted Blaine several days later asking him about the prophecy.   Three years later, when the word that Operation GTFO was afoot got out, 45H3 contacted Blaine and asked to go with him. The scientist who had raised them didn't believe in the prophecy but allowed Blaine to take the Quantum Matrix, asking him to please return it when the prophecy turned out to be wrong.   The prophecy was not wrong.

Significance

This crystal non-Newtonian substance contains the 1337 Speak Reality's most powerful computer and, thus, the AI 45H3 (or Ashe).

Raw materials & Components
Quartz crystal and Meteoric Iron were used in the creation of the Quantum Matrix. Each tiny piece of crystal, no larger than a grain of sand, was fitted via complex machinery with a set of very thin wires made from the Meteoric Iron. These crystals were then submerged in an electrified goop made of water, silica, and millet starch.
