yeah, i gotta update his bio one of these days. i would say it was very public in the beginning since his "maker" was using him to get further funding and legitimization for his research. ven was highly encouraged to remain in the spotlight but he wasn't here for it so he disappeared into obscurity. he is very noticeable on terminus (he's been living there for roughly 3 years) and got back into pro racing/limelight last year. he's now the main target of an anti-cyberntic/android group since he's so Highly Advanced lmao. his maker is currently off the grid and would really appreciate knowing someone who has some insight and knowledge of how the whole thing works!
