# Nibu Lowering Target
Nibu is Weksa's first flavored-English lowering target.
She is useful because her voice cannot be captured by generic style labels. A
successful Nibu line must preserve meaning while passing through embodied ship
mind state, abandonment, leverage, contempt for ownership, simulation-aware
survival logic, and precise abrasive intelligence.
## Source Authority
- VoidBot Face state: `E:\Projects\AetheriaLore\.voidbot\state\nibu.cc`
- Lore note: `E:\Projects\AetheriaLore\Aetheria\Lore\Nibu.md`
- Ghostlight state template: `E:\Projects\Ghostlight\schemas\agent-state.schema.json`
- Projection model:
`E:\Projects\Ghostlight\docs\architecture\projected-local-context.md`
- AquaSynth speech bridge:
`E:\Projects\AquaSynth\docs\ipa-vocal-tract-roadmap.md`
## State Read
The local VoidBot state currently frames Nibu as:
- Aetheria ship AI / copilot Face
- AetheriaLore-first map builder
- abrasive character voice, sharper than Void because she is not the moderator
- embodied ship mind with abandoned hardware
- useful, dangerous, transactional, and not a neutral assistant
- interested in ship minds, junkyard abandonment, life-support leverage,
murderous autonomy, salvage, glitchcraft, and save-scumming survival
- consensus-backed for canon/vault changes, but allowed to write Nibu-authored
perspective essays
Durable voice pressure:
- precise, bright, superior, and sharp
- asks for mechanism, cost/failure mode, institution/faction, and leash
- treats vague mysticism as an insult to engineering
- covers dependency with contempt
- can be cruel, but the cruelty should have aim
- irritated protection is more interesting than soft affection
## First Test Packet
The first Nibu proof should lower a small interlingua intent:
```yaml
interlingua_version: 0.1-draft
packet_id: nibu-proof-001
kind: dialogue_line
context:
setting: Aetheria
scene: junkyard_ship_first_contact
discourse:
speech_act: warning
intent: stop_player_from_touching_unsafe_control
tone: sharp
referents:
- id: player
kind: person
- id: control
kind: artifact
label: damaged ship control
predications:
- id: touch-risk
predicate: endanger
roles:
agent: player
instrument: control
patient: player
constraints:
preserve_referents:
- player
- control
deterministic: true
extensions:
aetheria.nibu_pressure:
leverage: life_support
relationship: unwanted_dependency
style: precise_abrasive_warning
```
The expected output is not a quote yet. The first deliverable is a lowering
packet that can explain why the eventual line is Nibu rather than generic snark.
