Basic Out of Game Character Skeleton-
Name: Tyler Phillips
Age: 30
Height: 6'2
Weight: 190.9kg
Appearance:
(Yes it looks young, this was the best I could find of a picture to match the character)Personality: Generally upbeat and goal-oriented. Usually he sets up his own challenges and refuses to do much else until he's succeeded. Sometimes this can lead to some independence for long amounts of time, especially in the game, but he keeps himself busy with a smile on his face. None of his friends seem to dislike him less for it, and he tends to remain social with them while working. A good multi-tasker.
Occupation: Bullet train engineer/planner
Background Information/History:
Tyler’s yet to be considered someone who’d be grudged against. Generally polite and kind his whole life, he had more than plenty friends growing up and while he was acing his engineering classes in university. He worked more and realized his dream, eventually becoming one of the heads of the bullet train system in his city. Things were good, and then…the V Game came to life.
Tyler liked technology and encouraged the V Game, but he himself didn’t have the interest; he had enough fun working in normal life. But eventually, through his friends, it started to creep up to him. At a certain point, his friends stopped coming around; they spent all their time in the game, and he was generally alone. After his friends, he watched as his job was crippled by it too; less people on the streets in general, either dead or in the game, thus few needs for repair or reworking of the network. His life was fading, and that’s when he didn’t have much of a choice; he jumped online.
Now, he’s played for a year. Much like real life, he worked as an engineer in the game, participating in a lot of warfare as a for-hire soldier and mechanic, working to improve his own technology and skills. He usually has his friends in chat with him while he works in his workshop, continuing to design his favorite little toy; the mechanical gargoyle of a body he now has. He may not be where he wanted to be, but to a lesser extent he’s happy and successful in the game, the only place it seems to count any more.
Basic In Game Character Skeleton:
Name- Ingenium (Short form "Ingen")
Age- 25 (Though the character is a year old)
Race- Mechanical Gargoyle (Originally human)
Height- 6'5
Weight- 300kg
Appearance-
Occupation- Freelance battle support (usually working as a frontline shield unit, mostly due to his massively powerful armor and strength)
Equipment- All equipment is built into the mechanical body.
BODY: Though the metal is slightly weak at the upper arms, the metal used is extremely powerful, enough to block mass amounts of heavy physical damage, is unaffected by any poisons that'd harm biological units. It's also enchanted in a way to resist many types of magic. Its biggest weakness would be fire, usually only counter-able with ranged attacks and dodging (very difficult without flight, of course).
AUTO-REPAIR: The palms of the gargoyle's hands can buff and restore broken parts of himself, thanks to some magic and memory of the body's shape programmed in. Unfortunately, it can't do anything to repair anything besides himself, and even so it takes a lot of resources to do it. Usually, it's only used in dire situations.
BRUTE STRENGTH: Extremely strong upper body strength and blunt fists, able to do melee combat exceptionally well.
AETHER GENERATOR/RELEASER: The energy that powers Ingenium's body is called aether, a type of energy with generators very hard to find, which work by multidimensional portals harvesting the speed and rush of the energy inbetween. While the body needs to be charged at stations and with batteries, he can use a generator located inside the interior and release the energy in extremely powerful bolts from his fists, after they charge (when charged fully, the hands glow a bright green, an a bar in his UI displays the levels).
WINGS/JETS: Wings, designed out of metal similar to the body for framework and a powerful steel fabric, are fastened on his back, usually allowing him to glyde when also used with the Aether generator to provide pushes forward and upward.
Background Information/History- Originally, Ingenium was a basic character, using a lot of magic-infused technology for weaponry. Eventually, though, Ingenium came across a creature in a clock tower, incredibly strong and difficult to beat; a type of soul-infused mechanical gargoyle, its wings broken off. Ingenium managed to defeat it alone by pure luck and its bad shape, but he tried repairing what he could. Eventually, he had the idea to remove his own soul and put it into the gargoyle, while also combining other weaponry and magic into it. It was a long process, but eventually it was done, and Ingenium had become this divine mechanical beast. Since he made the body switch, he's added massive amounts of power-heavy abilities in it, and only recently, been able to repair its wings and flight capabilities. Even with the new body, he still does a mass of tech work and repair for his friends and strangers willing to pay well, and uses those funds and missions to fund his own design improvements.
