The Demon Lord | DEAD

Atticus just sighed a little when Megan looked at him. It was...just a tiny bit pathetic, but hey, he'd seen stuff like this plenty of times. Heck, he'd DONE this plenty of times before. With a smile on his face he pulled her in for a hug and patted her back gently...just like Ma did back home. Not sure if he was overstepping his boundaries little, the hug was loose enough that she could just slip out right away anyways if she so wished. "Don't worry about it...Sorry about that. How's your nose? Should we take you to the nurse's office?"

Atticus was beyond confused when Megan was tugging on his arm, wondering why she hated crowds so much...then she fell. Right onto her face. Wincing slightly, before Atticus could even ask her if she was okay, she ran right off. Atticus looked as she ran away, too in shock that she just got hurt that quick. Noticing as Loki's glasses got knocked off, Atticus quickly dove to try and cover them, so that nobody would step on them in the crowd. Getting his other hand stepped on at some point, Atticus reached down and plucked the sunglasses up, handing them to Loki once he rose again. "What's with Megan? Here- take your glasses." he says, before deciding to chase after Megan, pushing his way through the crowd fairly easily. Not too many people would want to get in the way of the charging big guy.

Making his way out to the grounds, he looked around frantically for Megan, eventually finding the garden. Panting after all that running, he leans forward, hands on his knees. "H...Hey...Megan? A-Are you alright? Your nose isn't broken, is it?" he asks, voice full of genuine concern.

Lieutenant Rodrick Oberfield

Pilot
Name: Rodrick Oberfield
Rank: Lieutenant
Age: 32
Equipment:
.44 Wendigo-17, Standard revolver manufactured by the Westburrough corporation, known for its unique revolving chamber's inner coating that makes it incredibly hard for the gun to jam, making it reliable and clean.

Jebediah Mk 6 Environmental Protection Suit (E.P.S.), fairly reliable suit designed to keep the elements out and keep the wearer alive. Known to be one of the better E.P.S. models for cold environments. Rubber insulation in the boots also helps when wading through water, or flooded areas.

History: Rodrick was born into a relatively lower-class family in a poor scrapper town on Pluto, though his childhood would be much what you'd expect. A couple of fights, some scrapped knees, but really none of that matters to understand where Rodrick came from. The best place to figure that out would have been the Circuit. The Circuit was an illegal underground racing track that was seldom spoken of in public, but when local thugs know someone owes them a debt, that person gets to become a "volunteer" to get strapped into a mech and run around underground for some rich pig's amusement. Unfortunately, Rodrick was one such volunteer.

Forced to adapt to not crash and burn in his frame, Rodrick proved to be a surprisingly talented racer, slowly climbing the ladder to become one of the best young racers the Circuit had. But, even with his debt paid off, he was still a slave to the track. Regardless of what he'd accomplished, at that point he'd become a meal-ticket for the criminal betters, even being forced to take dives otherwise he'd find himself taking a 200 foot dive down a collapsed mineshaft. In a stroke of good/bad luck, a bust happened relatively around the time he'd turned about 29, a joint operation between the UHA Special Forces and Pluto Public Security. Despite the resistance a lot of people put up, Rodrick literally set his mech's position to be crouching and surrendered himself, tired of being a slave to a track. Answering their questions with an odd sense of honesty, he was about to get thrown in jail as well as the rest for illegal racing, but...for some reason, the caption of the UHA team offered him an ultimatum. In an almost stupid sense of irony, he would have to beat the captain of the UHA in ANOTHER illegal race, or be sent to jail. Figuring he had nothing to lose, he once again entering his DYT. Barely scrapping past the UHA in the finish line, he overcame the difference in experience with knowledge of his own machine's manueverability, and won his freedom...by that, the captain meant that he'd have him enlist for basic mech training. Or jail. Mech training sounded nice right about then.

At the age of 31, he volunteered to be cyrogenically frozen, figuring that if anybody knew how he'd basically ratted out the higher-ups in charge of The Circuit, he'd be put on ice permanently. Now he's in a new age where he's needed, ready to go out into a world where nobody knows him.

Mech
Name: Daytona
Designation: DYT-365/4
Tonnage: 50t, Medium
Height: 12 Meters
Mech Speed: 98 km/h, Fast
Upgrades:
-Upgraded Engine
-Jumpjets
-Lighter Skeleton
-Upgraded Stability

Traits: Hands, All Terrain, Fuzzy Dice

Exploration Loadout:
-Left Torso: AC5
-Right Torso: None
-Right Arm: 1x Medium Laser
-Left Arm: 1x Medium Laser
-L&R Legs: Jump Jets

Combat Loadout:
-Left Torso: AC 5
-Right Torso: Short Range Missles (SRM 4)
-Right Arm: Medium Laser (Hand Module)
-Left Arm: Medium Laser (Hand Module)
-L&R Legs: Jump Jets

Lore: The Daytona's peculiar humanoid-esque design is a leftover of the underground racing circuit they were requisitioned from on Pluto. Despite that they were actively used in what amounted to death races, quite a few were requisitioned due to their surprising usefulness in all terrain engagements and planetary exploration. Modified to be a highly mobile medium to long range engagement mech, the Daytona is suited for combat against lightly armored targets, but suffers a great deal against much heavier frames, having to rely on speed and attrition to win in most cases.

Atticus listened intently to the explanation the examiner gave of what his magic did exactly. "So...I can shake things and make sounds. That's...err...not exactly what I expected. But hey, that's still brilliant! I could be a one-man band!" he said excitedly, looking on the bright side of at least HAVING a specialty. Even if it wasn't "The kind of magic where I can make it rain money and then use the money to buy a house" kind of magic. Vibrations were cool. Proceeding with the next step, he started seeing what sort of path his future could lead to...looked like construction work. Sighing disappointingly, he just sorta...slumped over. It was work at least so...that was fine. If he could afford a place to live and food, even better. Not letting it get him too down, he proceeded to the medical examination part.

A couple of surprised yelps and syringes, Atticus was cleared with a clean bill of health. Besides being malnourished by a margin, he was in decent health. Identified as A- with his blood type, he was pretty sure that was good. A's were good in school, right? Walking out with a bandage on his right upper arm, he quickly spotted Megan and Loki and smiled, quickly making his way back over. "So, Megan, how'd your testing go?" he asked with a great amount of care, really wanting to know if someone else got something cool. Maybe if someone got that money magic he could ask them nicely for some. Or not.
