I would love to join this rp, but first I would like to know something. Seeing as this takes place in the future, are cyborg characters allowed? I have been dieing to play one for a long time.
Name: Briareos Machina
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Code name (given that describes abilities): Juggernaut
Explanation for code name: Big, fast, powerful, and difficult to take down
Other abilities(or abilities for non Protesters, include weapons): Briareos always was an excellant comabatant and marksman, more so now thanks to his cybernetic enhancements. He is undoubtedly the heavy artillery of the Protestors. Fitted with an advanced targeting system complete with motion tracker and night vision, he can fight multiple opponents in almost any environment. His entire body is integrated with a flexible but durable alloy armor plating that protects his body's intricate inner workings. He can hear a mouse from thirty feet away and wield virtually any model of gun for which he has built in storage of up to two extra ammuntion clips, one inside each of his arms. He is twice as fast as an ordinary human and five times as strong. His complex operating system is protected by an encryption and several firewalls miles of data thick. It is thanks to this advanced operating system that he has the ability to access multiple external systems simultaneously with precision, giving him the nickname Hechatonchires or "the hundred armed giant." He was also designed with a most interesting and unique feature; integrated in both elbows is a sort of sonic pulse generator that produces sound at such a high frequency it shatters glass and a few other materials. It is audible to humans and dangerous to their hearing, making it a perfect tool for distractions. Since whatever has been powering everything is going to be shut down he has a built-in powersource of his very own in the form of powerful battery.
Weaknesses: Despite all of his astounding abilities and defenses, Briareos is not without his weaknesses and flaws. He is susceptible to electro magnetic fields, -including ordinary fridge magnets- large bodies of deep water, -he sinks worse than a stone- and is just slightly emotionally unstable. Even with his impressive array of mental protection he is still vulnerable to the risk of virus infection, bugs, and other forms of malicious data and malfunctions. As much damage as his body armor can withstand, it is not unbreakble. The problem is that his armor is so well implemented to what remains of his natural body that too much damage to a vital area could prove fatal to Briareos. The ammount of ammunition he can carry is limited, and the sonic puse generators take several seconds to warm up. Though quick, he is not overly fast and some very few humans have been known to almost keep up with him. His strength can sometimes work against him. In a fit of rage, even a human can forget their own strength and cause serious damage. Briareos is an extreme case. Due to all of his mechanical parts, he is relatively high maintenance for body repair and general upkeep. Thankfully, he has become rather adept at taking care of himself so as to relieve the workload of the Protestors' mechanics and give himself a little more freedom. He still needs to recharge his internal battery for exactly eight hours every twenty four hours.
Status: JP Instructor, hand to hand combat and marksmanship
Years in JP school: 15 (Completed Course)
Personality: Briareos is not nearly as monstrous as he appears. He may look like a mindless wind up killing machine but in reality he is just as human as everyone else. He tries not to let the fact that his body is more machine than human affect him, though it does bother him from time to time. He is a proud and honorable warrior with a heart of gold and while usually kind and of good humor, it can come as a shock when he reveals his explosive temper. Unfortunately for his enemies, he can hold a heck of a grudge. Like most males, he keeps up a rough and tough exterior that hides a generally gentle nature. In combat he is highly focused. Once he makes a decision or gets moving their is little to nothing that can stop him short of completing his objective, but that doesn't mean he isn't flexible. Everything he does is with purpose and to the absolute best of his ability. Overall, Briareos is an enigma and the only way to solve him is to get to know him for yourself. Even then, he is still full of surprises.
Looks:
Briareos MachinaBriareos looks a little like a robotic rabbit with long bunnyear-like appendages on his head. He has glowing green eyes, four smaller scopes on either side of one larger one in the middle. He is broad shouldered and heavily built (no pun intended) with a bulky but not unnattractive muscle tone. He stands at a towering 6'5" tall and makes for an imposing firgure, more so with his utter lack of facial expression. He likes to wear black pants, combat boots, and a green camoflage shirt under a vintage black leather biker's jacket. He also wears an antique analog watch because he likes to listent to the ticking.
Bio/ Background: Briareos Machina's parents were part of the Protestors early on. So it came as no surprise that he attended the school since he was ten years old. Neither was it a surprise when he came home to find his parents dead and several DGO soldiers in the house. They spotted him. He was surrounded before he could escape. Another soldier came in with a flamethrower. They lit him up like a match and walked out. The house was ablaze by the time help arrived in the form of some Protest sympathizers. When they opened the door he ran out like a bat out of hell, screaming in agony. By the time they put him out he was burned so severely it was a miracle he survived the trip to medical. Once there, they managed to keep him alive until they could operate. Ultimately he lost most of the muscle tissue in his arms, legs, several internal organs including his heart and lungs, his eyes, part of his brain, and all of his skin. It took several surgeries and a great deal of technology to save him. A little over ninety percent of his body was replaced. That was five years ago. Once he completed his training as a Junior Protestor he took one of the instructor positions on top of his other duties in the hopes that with the right training no one else would come to realize the same fate.
