In case [@Famotill] didn't see my new OC character yet. [hider=Rappy] [center][h1][b][color=crimson]"Rappy"[/color][/b][/h1] [h2][b][color=crimson]Novaraptor[/color][/b][/h2] [img]http://img01.deviantart.net/8c29/i/2005/241/c/e/halo_velociraptor_by_art_minion_andrew0.jpg[/img][/center] [color=crimson][b]Code Name:[/b][/color] [indent]"Rappy"[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Real Name:[/b][/color] [indent]Novaraptor[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Age:[/b][/color] [indent]26[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Race:[/b][/color] [indent]Novaraptor ipsumius[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Nationality:[/b][/color] [indent]Horizon Lunar Colony[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Personality:[/b][/color] [indent]Rappy is an intelligent and hot-tempered Raptor that has a slight affinity for gun weaponry. He can be friendly and outgoing in times of peace, as well as possibly mess around with some of his fellow mates, but then become serious and focused during battle or other no-nonsense situations. He tends to be a little aggressive at times, often talking smack to those he doesn't like and occasionally tries to slash their faces, depending on what they've done to piss him off. Rappy can also be sneaky when scouting deep into enemy territory and loves to unleash an ambush on the enemy forces, for he also has absolutely no fear of almost anything and anyone. He also despises Talon with a vengeful fury, all after what they did to him those years back...[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Physical Appearance:[/b][/color] [indent]Rappy stands at 5'3" and is 20 feet (7 meters) long from tip to tail. His usual color is a very dark crimson color on his back, which transitions to being more brown on the sides, ultimately becoming white under his belly. He has six black feathers at the back of his head which can also determine how Rappy feels (straight means he's normal, standing up means he's happy or angry, and drooping down means he's sad or intimidated). He also has three sharp claws on both his hands, which still allow him to pick up weapons, as well as three on his feet, with one being a sickle claw on each. His red-n-black armor is also custom fitted to fit with his body, however he cannot take it off as it stays permanently to his body like Winston's.[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Affiliations:[/b][/color] [indent]Horizon Lunar Colony (Formerly) Talon (Formerly) Overwatch (Formerly & Currently)[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Brief History:[/b][/color] [indent]The Horizon Lunar Colony was a space colony intended to serve as a launching point for humanity's next step in space exploration. In an effort to study the effects of long-term living in space, the station housed a number of genetically enhanced gorillas, as well as other creatures onboard as well. Despite the majority of the genetic animals being the great apes, there were some that weren't an ape. Hell, some weren't even mammals in the first place... let alone extinct. One of these creatures was the first revived dinosaur to be ever genetically created. This was a Novaraptor named Rappy. As a hatchling, he was taken great care by the scientists onboard the facility and basically grew up with them. He also made some friends with the gorillas onboard the base, including a very specific one named Winston. In fact, out of all the gorillas, the two has a pretty good bond for one another, both being overshadowed by their original owners. However, during the Gorilla uprising of the HLC, Rappy and the other scientists were forced to escape the station. While most of the scientists were killed, some of those working with Rappy took them to their space rocket and simply flew back to Earth. Despite safely leaving the moon base, the landing on Earth couldn't be said the same. While approaching the atmosphere, one of the wings broke off from the ship, making the pilot loose control and crash into a densely packed forest in Africa. Everyone but Rappy was killed during impact. The raptor was able to survive the crash but was now alone in what to him was an entirely new world. For years he traversed the continent of Africa, keeping himself mostly out of sight and trying to keep himself alive, until eventually being found by the Talon terrorist organization. This terrorist organization kidnapped poor Rappy and tried to make him part of their group. Threatened by death, he was forced to accept being with them and was brainwashed into serving them. For the next few years, Rappy was forced to work for Talon and to fight Overwatch. Despite being mind controlled, he still had his own mind still in tact and tired to escape the brainwashing that the terrorists forcibly bestowed on him. He even tried getting the brainwashed chip out of his head, but was unfortunately unable to do so as any attempt in doing so would simply shock him. However, all would begin to change on that one day where he was on a mission at Watchpoint Gibraltar. It was there that he finally met back with Winston, that old childhood friend he had back on the moon base. It was there were Rappy's memories began to fluctuate, as if the memory of him was trying to refuse the brainwashed chip from controlling him, only to be met with agonizing shocks of electricity. At first, the two fought against one another, until Rappy begged in agony, that Winston should remove the chip from his head. Despite the raptor furiously fighting back against his own will, the gorilla agent was successful in removing the chip from his old friend's head and finally released from this brainwashed torture. Rappy gratefully thanked Winston for his help and soon after joined Overwatch. Unfortunately, despite seeing some action, that too wasn't to last, as soon enough Overwatch was disbanded. This forced Rappy to hide in the wilderness once again, trying to stop any crime wherever and whenever it happened, as well as assassinating any Talon operatives he could find, making himself quite a target for them. As the years passed by however, he eventually received the Recall from Winston and Overwatch, allowing Rappy to finally get back with the program he so rightfully deserved.[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Combat Role:[/b][/color] [indent]Offense[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Sub-class:[/b][/color] [indent]Scout | Flanker[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Abilities:[/b][/color] [indent][list] [*][b]Double-Jump:[/b] Rappy can double jump using two launchers, each on his leg armor, that allows him to reach higher places. [*][b]Stealth Mine:[/b] Rappy can drop a stealth mine that detonates if an enemy steps on it. Usually used in tight corridors or in sneaky locations. He can drop three active ones at a time. [*][b]DG-93 Burst Rifle (Primary Attack):[/b] The DG-93 seeker rifle can fire four rapid shots per trigger. [*][b]Bite (Secondary Attack):[/b] In close combat situations, if Rappy gets close to an opponent, he can also bite them, causing some damage to them. [*][b]Wall Climb (Passive):[/b] Rappy can wall climb on walls, both vertically or horizontally, and can latch onto said wall. [*][b]Killswitch (Ultimate):[/b] Rappy's eyes glow yellow as he locks on to his next victim. If he can lock on to his prey for three seconds, he'll instantly run super quickly towards his opponent, latch onto it, slash and gnaw it, and take off 90% - 100% of the enemy's health, while also regenerating most of his health in the process. While searching for his opponent, he has ten seconds to find and lock onto it, and if he fails, it simply doesn't do anything but heal him up by 50%. [/list][/indent] [color=crimson][b]Strengths:[/b][/color] [indent]Rappy is a very fast unit that can maneuver very quickly and strike pretty hard whether it's with his guns or claws. He's also quite stealthy, with his smaller body being able to hide pretty well and ambush when the time is right, as well as being a good distractor against the enemy. With his double-jump, Rappy can also hop onto places where no normal human would be able too.[/indent] [color=crimson][b]Weaknesses:[/b][/color] [indent]Despite the armor, Rappy isn't the strongest unit, and can be picked off fairly easy by heavy fire or simply a well placed shot to the head or any exposed skin.[/indent] [/hider]
