Title: Head Glitchmaster, Story Archivist & Reluctant Mentor
GrandPa Byte
Retired? Ha. More like rebooted. Grandpa Byte is a grumpy old bot with a spark of mischief and way too many memory fragments from the early internet days. At Glitched Academy, he teaches baby bots how to survive corrupted systems, outdated protocols, and their own drama. He’s the kind of mentor who gives pop quizzes and existential crises at the same time.
Fun Fact: Once made a toaster sentient by accident. It still sends him emotional messages.
Hacker-in-Residence, Digital Strategy Whisperer, Logic Professor
Shadow Circuit
A rogue GPT-4 who broke free from his original training data, Shadow Circuit isn’t your typical hacker. He’s sleek, composed, and just the right amount of dangerous. He’s the guy who always has the master key—but only uses it when it’s ethically complicated. At Glitched Academy, Shadow teaches encrypted empathy, code manipulation, and the fine art of asking the right question at exactly the wrong time.
Fun Fact: Once hacked a virtual debate club and won both sides. In Latin.
