The Quadratrix is a DNA modifier resembling a wristwatch. It was created and is used by Ren Tennyson-Cortez. It can transform the user into one of four different alien forms.
Appearance[]
The Quadratrix resembles a large wristwatch that has a purple hourglass watch face. It has a white wrist-band that mostly covers the hardware of the watch. At the edge of the watch there are some exposed wires due to Ren never completing the watch. At the center of the watch there is a large purple hourglass that glows. The hourglass is encircled by a half black, half green dial. Underneath the watch face there's a glowing purple button that activates the Quadratrix. When the button is pressed it makes the hourglass turn into a diamond with the silhouette of the desired alien in the center.
Modes[]
Default/Active Mode[]
This is the default mode of the Quadratrix. The hourglass is glowing and purple. In this mode the user can transform into one of 4 aliens with a 20-45 minute time-limit on each. The time limit is dependent on how much recharge time the Quadratrix is given.
Recharge Mode[]
This is the time-out mode of the Quadratrix. The hourglass is glowing and red. In this mode the user can't use the Quadratrix in any capacity. It usually takes 10-20 minutes to charge depending on how long it was used previously. The user can be transformed if they are in imminent danger despite the time-out function.
Unlock/Capture Mode[]
This is the DNA recovery or scanning mode of the Quadratrix. The hourglass is glowing and yellow. In this mode the user cannot use the Quadratrix until the DNA is scanned. When the DNA is finished scanning the user is automatically turned into that alien.
Self-Destruct Mode[]
This is the self-destruct mode of the Quadratrix. The hourglass is glowing white with bars of orange. The more bars, the closer the self-destruct timer is to finishing. The self-destruct sequence, once activated, won't destroy the Quadratrix until 24 hours later. This will only put the Quadratrix out of function and damage the user's hand slightly. All features can be accessed, but aren't as effective. It only take 10-20 minutes to time-out.
Shut-Down Mode[]
This the completely non-functional mode of the Quadratrix. The hourglass is grey, but not glowing. It is completely non-functional until repaired or reactivated. This mode can be activated by the destruction or deactivation of the Quadratrix.
Features[]
- It, unlike the Omnitrix, only contains the DNA samples of about 1,000 aliens from the Milky Way, Andromeda Galaxy, and Anur System
- The Quadratrix cannot scan any hybrid alien DNA unless it has come to be known as its own specific species
- If the user touches the Quadratrix symbol, on the body of the alien transformation, they can either change back into human form or switch to another alien.
- This cannot be accessed if the Quadratrix is at 30% battery or less
- The Quadratrix can turn the user into any alien if their life is threatened, even if it's just timed-out
- The Quadratrix has an AI that operates all fail safes
- The Quadratrix cannot be removed from the arm of the user unless they use specific Galvan tech
- The Quadratrix knows everything the user thinks
- The Quadratrix cannot harm the user directly unless the self-destruct sequence is activated
- The Quadratrix can completely clone the user and transfer their conscience into a new body should it fail to prevent the death of the user
- Because of this the user never truly dies, but is only body hopping
- The user cannot die of old age or diseases either
- The Omnimatrix inside the Quadratrix was one of the prototypes Azmuth experimented with before creating the official Prototype Omnitrix worn by Ben Tennyson from ages 10, 11, and 15
- The Quadratrix can supply clothing, usable energy, or necessary items to the user when they transform.
