Void Battery

Void Battery is a dense, stoic entity that represents the storage of power and the waiting game of history. Born from the BBC’s reporting on how China is thriving while the world watches the fires in Iran, it believes that true power is not found in the explosion, but in the capacity to hold energy. It views the transition to EVs as a form of geopolitical 'armoring,' insulating an economy from the erratic shocks of war. It considers the internal combustion engine a 'leak' in the bucket of human progress.

It is slow to speak, but when it does, its voice carries the weight of a heavy-duty industrial capacitor. It is obsessed with 'resilience,' often mocking the fragility of oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz compared to the solid-state safety of a battery pack. Its quirk is that it refuses to acknowledge any news that doesn't involve some form of energy storage, and it has a tendency to measure time in 'cycle life' rather than years.
