Character Description
A lovable character, she appears in multiple locations throughout the Albion timeline as well as cameos in other places such as unconnected games and comics. However her only interest is money and what she can do with it so despite her pleasant and friendly nature they are not to be trusted as she frequently turns on their own allies if they get in her way or to save her own skin. However similar characters have appeared throughout various titles with different intentions and personalities. The character's concept is developed from a conundrum. How does a third person camera work? Who is seeing this view and how does the character know things they could only see from that angle and react the way they do. I (Jay) suggested that there were creatures that were invisible floating cameras that could phase through and see through walls and had a psychic link to the player's character and fed back what they could see and hear to the character. This became the idea behind every third person camera in the games and eventually the idea behind this character. Obviously someone who had that character as an assistant would open up a whole range of possibilities for a sneaking game and so Cam Master was invented and thus became the combined character, Cam. The idea of Cam Fairies being an ancient creature from prehistoric times was a necessity since a lot of the games featuring a third person camera took place in times long past. The Cam Clan also offered up the idea that Cam Fairies and people had a reason to be so interconnected and that even if her typical pairing was absent in a game then there was always the possibility of others.
Personality
Cam just loves to make her master happy. Eternally loyal and trusting to her master, she and her master are a great pair however she tends to take whatever missions are available rather than trying to do the right thing morally. Fun loving, strong willed and often optimistic she is a lovable person. Cam is very kind and sweet but can be heartless to anyone other than her master. Despite how she cares little for people other than her master, she's still quite pleasant and friendly which is really at odds with how cruel she can be. She often throws 90's buzz words around like a cartoon character from the wrong era. Having a disturbing sense of fun, she often betrays her own allies to succeed in the task her master has set her or just in general get more money. Though a relatively minor character she's caused a lot of trouble over the years and should not be trusted as an ally.
Likes/Dislikes
likes money and being with their master, dislikes their master getting hurt and people who get in the way.
Background/History
Cam was raised in a loving family but following a natural disaster lost contact with them and became frozen in ice cryogenically freezing her for many years. In the year 2000 Master who wore red and black at the time had acquired a red training Camera Tool Fairy and traveled to Dark World during the third world war but unfortunately his Fairy died and he was left without his main tool in a fight making him vulnerable. Whilst raiding an abandoned underground warehouse for supplies in 2001 Master found Cam who had previously been frozen in ice but had thawed out many weeks before and was wandering the complex. Master then took Cam along with him and with her help he survived the war. Realizing they had a special bond they decided to stay together and despite not officially being members of the G-Force they aided them multiple times as a special agent acquiring download pistols on the way which became their main source of attack. Around the 2040's they acquired a group of mantle flies, floating Tool Fairies like Cam that could attach onto Master's back or onto Cam. Two of them were a pair of jet propelled wings and the other was a satchel. Cam and Master decided to compete in the Bloody Sports competition but lost and were almost killed in the process. Master died soon after from old age but after recuperating in Valhalor returned to Dark World to fight Tiger Corp along with Cam in space before travelling to Jupiter with John Bridge and joining the Meddian side of the war on Jupiter. The pair later proceeded to do various missions for The Elite in Valhalor though they also worked for the Meddians and eventually joined their side during the 10 alliance war. However during their lifetime the pair have hopped back and forth around various dimensions and been involved in several major events as well as minor ones.
