My idea of a Symbiotic Character is one that develops his/her character and their story cooperatively with another character. Based on inspiration from similar ideas in media and literature, I've developed and will continue to develop an array of characters who, for all intensive purposes, need the assistance of another person and their character to truly bloom. It may be difficult to accomplish as I have no idea how many will show interest and/or be willing to develop a cooperative back story if necessary. But I've always been described by my friends as stubborn so I'll give it a try anyway. For anyone who happens to be browsing this compendium, feel free to inbox me if you see a character you would like to 'Adopt' or if you wish to create a new one together.
Update: Be advised everyone! I withhold certain things from my characters to keep a bit of mystery. It's usually things like final moves, hidden abilities, or dramatic history details. This way I can keep things fresh with anyone I happening to be role playing with who doesn't know the full potential of my character. ;]
Appearance - Techbreeds appear to be a combination of machine and war beasts, sporting dense, metal armor covering animal like forms. Though they tend to change their shapes to adapt to the environment or situation, they maintain this quality. Age - Unknown Gender - N/A Species - Techbreed Guardian Type Height - Predator Mode: 6'10". Stallion Mode: 4'6". Arachnid: 7'4". Scorpius: 8'4". Weight - Predator Mode: 290 lbs. Stallion Mode: 220 lbs. Arachnid: 310 lbs. Scorpius: 340 lbs. Physiology - The Techbreed are a species of artificially engineered, genetically modified non-terrestrial cyber organisms, grown, programmed, and outfitted for specific tasks. There are an array of Techbreed sub-types, each with a different physiology and characteristics to match the task they are programmed to fulfill. Common qualities however are finely segmented plates of depleted promethium armor covering a body made of a transmutable bio-organic muscle-like memory metal. Their bodies are capable of consuming and converting metal, sunlight, electricity, fire, and life force into matter and energy to help repair damage, restore power, and increase their abilities. Heavily damaged units can enter a high speed repair mode, restoring their physical form in hours but rendering them offline for days, or weeks depending on the amount of damage. At the heart of each Techbreed is a Energy Core capable of storing massive amounts of power. This allows them to go for long periods without an energy source as well as store power for specific situations.
Psychology - A combination of genetic programing and instinct drive the Techbreed's train of thought and mental capacity. Beast, being of the Guardian type, imprints on a single beings and from that point forward becomes unhesitatingly loyal to the point of self sacrifice toward that individual. Specific actions and attacks are carried out via vocal commands and voice recognition. Along with these ingrained traits, Beast itself, due to a few flaws and quirks in its programming from decades of floating across the cosmos, can tend to stray from a typically mechanical personality. This causes occasional acts of spontaneous behavior or unexpected actions.
Abilities- Predator Mode: Best suited for most combat situations, Predatory mode grants Beast a more offensive style form with high strength and durability. Stallion Mode: Best suited of utility and travel, Stallion mode changes Beast into a more speed and stamina oriented form. Techflies: Beast releases a swarm of robotic flies from canisters on it's back. Each fly is equipped with mini photon lasers and small volatile energy cores for self detonating. Beast's swarm supply is replenished after a short period of time. Nanite Defense cloud: A cloud of microscopic nano-machines are released into the air from ports on Beast's body, forming a cloud around it and near by allies to protect from most forms of attack by absorbing impacts and energy before dissipating after several seconds. Nanite Acid Spray: Beast spits a gooey spray composed of a glue like liquid and a swarm of microscopic nano-machines which breaks down and dissolves most solid matter on contact. Edge Shredder:(Predator Mode) Blades emerge from Beast's body as it curls into a wheel and rolls at high speeds towards a target. Though low on accuracy, this attack does significant damage to flesh, metal, and terrain alike. Cloaking Matrix:(Predator Mode) Causes Beast's body to absorb and bend light, allowing it to blend in with most surroundings, leaving only a slight optical shimmer in its place. Boost Breaker:(Stallion Mode) Additional Plates and spikes appear across the front of Beast's body and small engines emerge from its hind legs, allowing for destructive stampedes. Sonic Acceleration Drive:(Stallion Mode) Beast's body becomes more streamline and jet like engines emerge on its sides, allowing for high speed mobility, though can be hard to stop.
The Guardian Synchronization Matrix Requires a fraction of the host's life force as well as a mental bond developed over time and trust from the host. When Active, Beast combines with its host and takes the form of a bio-mech suit, gaining new abilities and giving the host synaptic control. Life force continues to drain at a slow rate as long as Guardian Matrix remains active, and will automatically deactivate to prevent fatally draining the host.
Guardian Synchronization Matrix Arachnid: HUD=Projects a map of the surrounding area extending for 200 meters into the hosts eyes. The map updates in real time, revealing terrain features and surface movement. Temperature, elevation, time, wind velocity, and several other readings are also available in the HUD, which can also be mentally commanded to minimize to prevent obstruction of vision. Compound Vision=When active, will grant infrared, ultraviolet, and night vision. Can also detect distortions in light on a microscopic level, zoom in and telescope, track movement, and predict actions based on muscle contractions. Techmites=The Host can produce up to 10 quadrupedal, autonomous, quick moving drones armed with rapid fire photon lasers, a super sticky ooze used for slowing down and immobilizing targets, and volatile energy cores with a detonation velocity of over 5000 meters per second, similar to a grenade. Dual Photon Sabers=Two photon blades capable of cutting through almost any solid are equipped to the host. The blades can be charged with photon energy to add more power to the impact of an attack. Dual Spitfire Machine Guns=A pair of automated arms brandish rapid fire machine guns loaded with regenerating 15mm hollow-point rounds and equipped with auto targeting systems that link into the Host's HUD. Dynamic Mobility=Beast's Arachnid form grants its hosts ability to move with increased agility, jump greater distances, and scale vertical surfaces or ceilings.
Guardian Matrix Synchronization Scorpius: HUD=Projects a map of the surrounding area extending for 200 meters into the hosts eyes. The map updates in real time, revealing terrain features and surface movement. Temperature, elevation, time, wind velocity, and several other reading are also available in the HUD, which can also be mentally commanded to minimize to prevent obstruction of vision. Plasma Coils=A.K.A. Death Stinger. At the tip of two tail like appendages are powerful arc guns capable of shooting bolts of white hot plasma and electricity with an output of over 50,000 Amps. Photon Cleavers=A pair of extra reinforced limbs armed with massive photon pincers autonomously defend and attack for the host with a crushing force of about 5000 psi. Dual Anti-Material Rifles=2 High powered Rifles with 30 caliber rounds capable of piercing most of the thickest, hardest solids are bestowed to the Host. Each is armed with an auto targeting system that patches into the Host's HUD. Reinforced Exoskeleton=At the cost of some mobility and speed, Scorpius form grants high durability and physical strength.
Overdrive Override! With enough will power, the host can mentally synchronize with Beast and override its limit programming. Through harnessing all of Beast's stored energy, Natural abilities as well as Guardian Synchronization Matrix is supercharged, allowing it to reach its maximum potential for 10 to 20 minutes, at the cost of rendering it offline and forcing it into repair mode afterward and exhausting the Host.
Equipment - N/A Strengths/Weaknesses - Requires a Host to function properly. Can be difficult to understand with new Hosts. Can get out of hand if not controlled and commanded properly. Biography - Series- Original Character
