venus williams
venus is a robot created by a man named charles williams. she was created after his wife, amelia williams, went missing. charles theorized that she had been kidnapped by a man named james alexander, and created venus to find him, kill him, and bring his wife back. charles then sent her to the same summer camp james's child went to in hopes that she would find him. due to an error in her programming, venus is able to feel emotions and form relationships, and makes many friends at the camp. she is also incredibly sociable and extroverted due to her code. she's practically programmed to know how to socialize. while there, she meets two other girls, remi and naomi. they are the only people who know that she is a robot. after making friends, venus realizes she doesn't want to go through with the murder of james, and would rather have her own life. after this, she realizes that james didn't even kidnap amelia, and that she faked her kidnapping to escape abuse from charles. this enrages her, and she cuts all connection to him. venus's relationship with charles is much like that of a father and daughter, so this devastates her, and naomi and remi help to comfort her. after the camp, she stays with naomi, who knows how to code and makes sure she can function properly. while there, she finds her own interests, and attempts to live as a normal teenage girl. she stays there until she's eighteen, at which point she tries to live a normal life, meeting with naomi from time to time to update her programming.
