1.
Zenox arm; his right arm is a weapon. Thought its main form is much like a normal hand, it can be outfitted with a number of altered functions. Currently it can transform into a small plasma canon capable of firing charged energy blasts.
Agility; his robotic engineering gives him improved agility, giving him enhanced movement capabilities.
Marksmen; Alex is an natural marksmen, even without his cybernetics. He has permanently disabled his targeting system and instead shoots manually.
Energy siphon; to replenish his own energy stores he is capable of siphoning energy from a running electronic by making contact with his Zenox arm. He can also use the same skill to give electronic items energy and power them.
Weapon; Zenox Arm. Whatever gun and or mele weapon he happens to be using at the time.
Personality “Can’t you tell?” Alex is a nice if somewhat grim kindof guy. He is quick to offer help but has no qualms about killing. Often he attempts to boost the confidence of his allies, and will laugh at the occasional joke.
Background “I don’t like this subject…” Alex was chosen from the army to be the subject of prototype cybernetic modifications…against his will. He doesn’t remember anything before waking up in a deserted lab; his first look at the world was after its Armageddon. He has taken part in some activities he would rather forget, often falling into the wrong crowd in order to stay alive. He does not often talk of these ‘dark days’ but recently has focused on becoming something he can be proud of. He has been a resident of Steeltown on and off over the last ten years. Showing up on occasion and staying for a few weeks. He often brings the traders useful items and sells them, or hires himself out to drifters as a guide or bodyguard, often he can be found at the bar.
Optional: Being an experimental cyborg he is not as robotic as most, his most distinguishing part is his Zenox arm, however he is also equipped with neural and physical implants increasing his speed and mental capabilities. His build is centered around speed and agility, rather than being a moving tank. This gives him some distinct advantages over the slower, more powerhouse robots of the wasteland, however it also makes him more susceptible to damage. His energy siphon is a function enabled by his core that was made to keep up his energy reserves. He is capable of small repairs to his system but if it is too bad he has to get someone’s to fix it.
Equipment; “Ah, the fun stuff.” He has an enhanced motion tracker built into his left eye that feeds into his neural network. He also has ‘Shell grenades’ which can magnetize to metallic surfaces and when activated release a controlled EMP burst, knocking gout lights and systems. He can recharge these with his energy siphon, and the magnitude of the burst is determined by how much he charges them. His Zenox arm is outfitted with an advanced heavy weight, magnetic grappling tool. It can attach to metallic surfaces and draw them in, or draw Alex to them, making it effective for combat and climbing uses. He also has a drug implant that can flood his body with enhancement, or healing drugs; depending on what he has it set for. His final primary piece of equipment is a multitasking control unit fashioned onto his left wrist, when in use it can connect to many electronics and control their functions. It is currently only capable of controlling three at once. Although each Item must be linked to the unit by a hack spike stuck into its wires or networks.
Modifications; “Have you not been paying attention?” His arm is forged from Zeronium, i strong lightweight substance resistant to energy and plasma based attacks, it is also capable of running off its own energy reserves for short periods of time. He has linking slots on the backs of his shoulders, his elbows, shins, and ribcage for the connecting of a variety of tools and or weapons. These links reside under the skin when not attached to something. His eyes are connected to his neural implants and allow him to scan and analyze items and targets, storing the information in an on board hard drive that much resembles a library. His energy core is a Certex 10.0996 model capable of increased energy storage and output, this directly powers his arm and is capable of diverting power to other attachments as well. The core is kept in the left side of his chest, opposite of his heart. It is encased in a strong metallic shield for protection, however the shield has gaps on the sides for the cords to go out, this is a possible vulnerability.
Specs; Alex is 5’8 and weighs in at 250lbs, being opted for speed his cybernetic parts were forged from an extremely lightweight metal stronger than steel, and energy resistant. Making him somewhat resilient to energy based attacks If he can block them. He is also extremely adaptable, being compatible with a variety of cybernetic and robotic extensions.
Living quarters; A small shoddy house in steeltown.
