µ
The God of Dialectic... Mu — the living embodiment of living, conditional, fluid opposites transforming into one another within endlessly changing matter. Though the nature of this being is not yet fully understood, it has become a guide in the quest to comprehend the essence of matter and its transformation.
This might seem absurd — how can specific notions, thoughts, and ideas arise from outside themselves, from something unknown or undefined? In truth, all perception is the result of direct influence from matter, which, through its effects on the sensory organs, forms corresponding sensory representations. The understanding of the totality of representations and their interrelations enables one to grasp essence and form a corresponding concept. A thought or idea, objectively existing, is formed out of material reality.

Bio
The Nansenz is simply any perceived uncertainty, whose essence remains unrecognized within the scope of our existing representations. And Mu's presence in Nansenz and Deltadim represents a constant motion — from perceived phenomena to their essence, from the unknown thing-in-itself to the known thing-for-us. Mu is an advanced subject of cognition, progressively deepening the understanding of attained moments of truth. This is expressed as movement into the uncertainty of Nansenz, transforming it into the determinacy of Deltadim.
In her biological form, Mu is a Cabbit — a hybrid of a cat and a rabbit. And yet, this is a highly unusual hybrid, as both forms occupy exactly half of her body in perfect bilateral symmetry.
The right, rabbit side is alive, composed of living cells, whereas the left, cat side is formed of dead cells. These two sides transition into one another — most clearly observable in the tail, where living cells feed on the dead and process them, while dead cells form from the dying living ones. There is constant migration and transformation of cells, and therefore continuous renewal of the body.
Given that life and death – like any polar opposites — are relative, in essence both sides represent any opposites. Their unity in Mu defines her as an internally divided, self-contradictory, and thereby self-moving organic whole. The struggle of opposites follows from their unity, allowing Mu both to preserve and to evolve her identity.
Mu’s consciousness resides in her head in the form of a neural structure, encompassing all the knowledge encoded during her synthesis in the laboratory and further developed through the experience she gathers in her endless journey across the universe. Since Mu has a familiar, anthropomorphic profile with the expected set of limbs and sensory organs, she is fully capable of interacting with ordinary characters.
A timely appearance by Mu can easily provoke a vivid and emotional response...
Even though her strangeness might seem unsettling, Mu is certainly benevolent and open to all forms of interaction and motion — including the mental.
Mu’s biomatter consists of special cells capable of reorganizing themselves under control signals and transmitting those signals to other cells. In this way, Mu can consciously control her entire body, manipulate individual organs, and even alter their structure. Considering the integration with dead cells, the whole system becomes rather complex — but it works.
Mu is not limited to conventional forms of nourishment or respiration — she sustains her life through constant interaction with the external environment and a life cycle involving dead cells. Still, she’s not opposed to eating from time to time… in such cases, the food enters a simple internal chamber of her body, where it is processed by special secretions depending on its composition.
To move freely through space, Mu uses her own biological teleportation device in the form of a phase ring. Like Soap, she can manipulate spatial distortion through thought and gestural passes.
Bleh :P
The ring does not obstruct Mu’s field of vision, as it shifts away from the direction of her gaze.
Accessories
Mu wears a special collar of interpenetration. It links directly to her consciousness through a specialized neural interface, allowing her to manage her body with ease by formalizing and expressing methods as a system of logical categories. The collar firmly establishes the unity of opposites and becomes a clear representation of their interconnectedness — without negating contradiction. It organizes perceptions and disciplines the approach.
This advanced cybernetic device is composed of specialized nanites and essentially functions as a sophisticated system for information processing. The collar was created by Mu herself, based on her profound knowledge of dialectics.
An universal device
At times, Mu removes it — to step outside the constraints of established forms and principles and to fully embrace the living experience, refreshing her understanding. When she puts the collar back on, Mu resumes another round of formalization and the formation of renewed representations. In this way, through sublation, the old representations are negated, but not completely discarded; instead, they become subordinate components within the new representations.
When placed on another being, the collar of interpenetration may very well grant it the ability to traverse and transform space.
Dialectical Flowering
The florie of dialectic, despite her resemblance to Mu, is not Mu's incarnation within the Floriverse. Rather, she is a distinct being and Mu’s companion. In this regard, Wina stands apart from many other florie — such as Furflow, Musty, or Arti. Wina's biology is analogous to that of Mu, but expressed in the bioform of a florie.
This florie emerged from a core of biomatter that Mu once separated from the living part of herself and directed into the Floriverse. Wina has always maintained a mental connection to Mu, and through this connection, she gradually took form and became self-aware.
Later, a sprout branched off from Wina — one that grew into Corrode. Wina formed her from a desire to express herself through a kind of continuation. Corrode is closely connected to Wina, yet differs in her type — tube instead of bloom.

Origin
The very emergence of this extraordinary being was the result of two mutually conditioned developments...
On one paw, advances in quantum physics opened new possibilities for the transformation of matter. This led to the development of advanced synthesis methods — including biological synthesis — and enabled the exploration of space via telepipes, both within the familiar cosmos and beyond its boundaries.
On the other paw, the vast and unexpectedly unfolding horizon of previously unknown forms of matter organization inevitably attracted the attention of society, increasingly coordinating scientific activity toward the investigation of these forms and the development of a comprehensive understanding of the universe.
One scientific organization from the university-city of Kotasains — originally a division of the quantum physics department — had specialized in spatial research and manipulation. Its members, Raz, Kit, and Yarrow, embarked on a search for a solution that would allow for the effective synthesis of interaction results across diverse environments — entire universes — to determine the properties and interrelations of all conceivable forms of matter.
The project was as ambitious as it was undefined in nature and might never have progressed further — had it not attracted the interest of the C-Cats, a group from the city’s biology department. Their focus was on the formation of the subject of cognitive and practical activity itself.
Blur
Thus, a singular being came into existence — Blur. But it did not remain long in its initial form. Upon beginning an independent existence, it passed through many states and eventually transformed into Mu. The appearance of Mu became perhaps one of the most significant events of the OWO Era, and in many ways, came to define it.
