Jan's seen it all. It spawned in as a lowly soul, one of many who believed themselves better than the other, due to having a vague semblance of a source. Souls are barely treated as living things, and Jan wanted to be treated more than just a lowly thing that just took up space, so it was hellbent on doing something with it's life. After working its ass off, Jan managed to become a chimera...and stayed as just a little guy, but now it has fancy prehensile limbs resembling ribbons! Jan, seeving over not being a sexy humanoid, taught itself how to make a robotic humanoid body, out of spite.

Afterwards, Jan realized it had quite a knack for building robots, so it monetized it's little hobby! You pay Jan a few hundred bucks, and, depending on what you ask for, it'll either make you a very nice and obedient robot servant. or whip up one, or two, or three new limbs for you! It became well-known due to this, and while Jan is an insufferable pretentious prick who would post godawful edgy jokes, takes, and make incredibly unfunny "satire" comics about people it hated, it made incredible breakthroughs related to technology in the Altered Lands, in particular using someone's energy as a fuel source for prosthetic limbs.

And then Jan became a spirit. It had it coming, really, with the whole cloning thing.

Oh yeah...
The cloning thing.
Jan cloned itself.
A LOT.
Turns out Jan didn't program any kind of software into those robot servants, it just split part of it's soul off and shoved it into a body. Jan also cloned itself when it found something it didn't like about itself. What do you mean, Jan was a feminine furry? That never happened, you must be confusing Jan for it's suspiciously similar-looking clone that Jan later got too attached to and saw as it's child and then passionately hated, Cecilia!

All of those clones were also Jan. And the energy those clones had were technically Jan's energy. Jan ended up amassing about the same amount of energy an average weak spirit had, purely because the clones it created using part of its soul and energy to ended up getting more energy, and that energy ended up making Jan into a borderline spirit.

Jan still builds and sells robots for people. Why would Jan want to change up the thing that made it into a spirit in the first place? It's still getting rich off of this, and it still gets business, so why change? Really, Jan became even more full of itself after it became a spirit, because now it has one more excuse to deny service to those lowly souls it claims just exist to take up space. What kind of loser even treats souls like they're people?
