Pilot/Custodian Staff Member Name: Saarang ag Agrips Age: 75 of your human years. Gender: Male Appearance: Saarang is a 7ft tall green lizard man who is heavy with muscle. He has claws on his hands and feet, a long tail, mouth full of sharp sharp teeth, and a colorful frill around his neck that he keeps flat most of the time. Black spikes run down his back and the length of his tail. He has three deeps scars across one eye that extend down his neck and halfway down his chest. Wears the ceremonial bronze chest plate of his people, a loincloth, a flowing red cape, and a belt of which to carry his huge black iron mace. Personality: A steadfast and honorable warrior, Saarang never turns down an opportunity to test himself against a true foe. As an extension of this, he does not like fighting people who are weak or unable to defend themselves. Is always serious, at all times, and values discipline. Does not understand the concepts of metaphor or humor, but is desperate to learn. Loves music and song, and often spends his off hours listening to something or other while training or working. Is conflicted about his place in the world, but determined to follow the path he has chosen to the end. Brief Backstory: Saarang is a Jovian Lizard from the moons of Jupiter, winning fame and glory as a warrior of the great Red Frilled King. Eventually being promoted to general of the Imperial Army, he led the great Mechasaurus armada that subdued the rest of the moons and formed the great Jovian Empire. When the Red King eventually cast his eyes on Earth Saarang was among the first to descend from the enormous Stellerdactyles to meet the defenders of the blue planet. But as the battle continued Saarang found himself both enamored with things he had never experienced back on Jupiter, such as "music" and "entertainment", and dissatisfied with the underhanded tactics employed by the Red Frilled King and his fellow generals. The final straw was when three other generals ambushed Gogekkor V, a warrior of Earth that Saarang had come to respect very much, during an honorable duel between the two. He turned on them, killing one general and savagely wounding another, but not in time to save Gogekkor. His quick intervention had, however, been enough to save its young pilots. Disavowed and stranded on Earth, Saarang resolved to put his considerable might to use protecting the planet that had won his respect. Skills: Amazing fighter, not much else. Understands English, but does not like speaking it because it hurts his throat to do so. Abilities: Saarang is stronger than any normal human, easily capable bench pressing tanks and punching holes in solid stone. Saarang shares a psychic connection with his Mechasaurus Red Horn, able to feel its emotions and sense with its senses if they are fully connected. Mecha Name: Red Horn Type: Super Appearance: [url=http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100627154405/supcom2/images/thumb/e/e8/Cyb_cybrex.png/746px-Cyb_cybrex.png]Red Horn is actually a cyborg in the style of this image, except covered in much more armor that only revels a barest amount of flesh. Likes its name says, it has two horns on the head in addition to big blades sticking out of the sides of its arms.[/url] Specifications: Mechasaurs are genetically grown in a lab and then thoroughly augmented with cybernetics. While most are designed as weapons to be dropped onto the enemy so they can rampage about and do damage, Red Horn is the personal steed of a Jovian General and is thus bonded to him psychically. Befitting Saarang, it is specializing in getting up in the enemy face and tearing it off while relying on its armor to tank most of the damage it takes getting to them. It is a large, fast, heavy melee attacker. Equipment System: Red Horn's cockpit is nothing more than a room in the creatures head where Saarang stands and connects to the beasts mind. While fully connected Saarang experiences everything that Red Horn does, essentially becoming one with it. Red Horn can either walk on two legs, hunched over like a Allosaurus, or on four for additional speed. It's bite and claws each put down enough pressure to crunch up mech armor, and the blades on it's arms can be extended forward to act as swords. These swords can be superheated for additional effectiveness. Red Horns most deadly attack is its titular Red Horn, where it stores energy in its horns, impales the enemy on them, then releases the stored energy directly into them. It's only ranged ability is that it can breath fire. While it may look robotic, Red Horn is still a living creature that must eat, drink, and breath. However, thanks to its body's extensive genetic engineering it does each of these things efficiently. It can survive on just one ton of meat a week, mostly fish, and similar amount of water. In addition, it can last without oxygen for up to a week after a deep breath. It can be injured, but has an incredibly effective healing factor and can come back from even the most grievous of injuries if given appropriate time to recuperate. Red Horn has a personalty, though a very subdued one. It can act without orders from Saarang, though will only do so when it is in danger. Anyone approved by Saarang can give it reasonable orders, such as "move out of the way" or "lift your foot so I can do maintenance," and it even has preferences with regards to mechanics and food.
