{Cyborg Soldier: 009} ~ OOC

Just to be certain, the Cyborg's 00 number correlates to the order in which they were enhanced, correct?

 

Aiming to have everything squared away by tomorrow.

 

I've just read the character. Wow. He's going to start a couple f fires now 8D

 

Here we go. I think this should about do it. If I don't get an intro post up by today, I'll have one up by Sunday night. I figure I'll start with him separate from the group though, or something to that effect.

Spoiler

Username: Ego Imperium
Cyborg Model: 001 Mk. 2
Real Name: Abani Koech
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Birthplace: Kenya

Appearance:

Abani measures at approximately 5 feet 9 inches tall, with an estimated weight of around 200 lbs. He has generally smooth skin, with a complexion akin to the color of dark mocha. The top of his head is completely shaven off, though it would otherwise be adorned by a short afro of black hair. A mustache-goatee frames the space around his mouth. Some disproportion is present in his hands and feet, both of which are proportionally larger than the rest of his figure. As for the rest of his figure, he’s literally what some would call “built like a bull.†Abani carries himself with a pseudo-hulk physique that is composed chiefly of a bulky, yet cut figure in which the majority of his muscles are clearly defined.
​

Bio:

As is particularly commonplace for most cyborgs such as him, he hasn’t much memory for his life prior to enhancement. He doesn’t so much recall people, events and places though; more so, he recalls things that he did, completely isolated from the rest of the memories. He remembers climbing trees (where they grew), and throwing rocks as far as he could as though he were an Olympian athlete. He vaguely recalls aspirations of competing in world athletic events as a youth, but the reasons for desiring such a thing continues to elude him. Inside, he chuckles a bit about it, knowing that with his enhancements, he could easily take athletic titles without even a hint of competition. But unfortunately, there’s no time for that, and probably never will be.

As for becoming a cyborg, he was taken about two years ago, plucked out of his homeland at age 20 while training himself to take his aspirations by the horns. He was one of the first cyborgs under the new models. As a result, his modifications were the most standard and simplistic ones. He was to be made a physical powerhouse, capable of lifting several tons, and resisting all but the most destructive of weaponry. The process, which he recalls only by some form of muscle memory, was rather arduous at the time, consisting of priming through workout, performance enhancements, and finally, the cybernetics that resulted in him truly becoming a cyborg. In the conclusion of his treatments, for control’s sake, his memories of his past were left in tatters or dormant, such that the desire to return to his old life would be consciously non-existent.

Being designed as a weapon, he was immediately entered into combat training simulations. However, it was found that he wasn’t nearly as aggressive as he needed to be. Eventually, talk of terminating 001 began floating around, and before long, a team was dispatched to do the deed. It was only then, with his life threatened for real, that Abani displayed the strength and aggression necessary to make The Black Ghost organization see his worth. In response to his effortless decimation of his would-have-been killers, he was kept around, and kept to pulling grunt work, and held in reserve. As more cyborgs like him began to come out of the works, he began to feel some level of likeness to them (as he should). When word got out that the lot of them, from 002 through 009, had escaped the Black Ghost facility, Abani decided to give pursuit.​

Personality:

Despite having the necessary strength to bear hug a bear to death, Abani is not what one would call an aggressive, or even ill-meaning individual (even towards enemies). By a base nature, he is a tranquil individual, standing peacefully off to the side of most of the mild conflicts, and apparently never having any strong personal stance for or against anything. Some who don’t know him might just dub him a pushover, and too peaceful for his own good. Some go as far as to think that he’s plain dumb, which of course, is hardly the case. He’s just someone with little to say. And what he lacks in words, he makes up for in action. The only thing that can really spark him to take action is danger, a quality that is often found hand-in-hand with his nearly boundless commitment to his fellow cyborgs. When a shot is fired, or a punch is thrown and the well being of a comrade or himself rests on the other end, he enters a sort of “berserk†state of mind, growing unfathomably more aggressive, and exhibiting fullest potential of his strengths. When the group is at odds, he is either the one in the midst of separating the parties, or walking away when it’s beyond his control.

Other:

• Mostly speaks in short, sometimes fragmented sentences.

 

I'm interested in joining, is there any spaces left as a cyborg (I wasn't certain if the part of the first post was up to date). If not what other types of character are available?

 

Actually, my plan was to have him having left after the others. Sort of following in their tracks.

 

I forgot to ask. What is the uniform of the θθ cyborgs if they have one?

 

So that green one is the θθ series uniform?

And looking at Cyborg 009 (which I've still not got around to watching myself), I can definitely see the similarities in it to other Ishinomori works lol. Then again, pretty much all of his stuff is about cyborgs and evil syndicates.

 

I've posted. Sorry it took longer than I said it would. I'll have him show up at the fight scene in my next post.

 

Guys, I should inform you all that as of tommorrow I'm not going to be able to come on so please don't kill my chara off and anyone feel free to control her for a bit.

On another note, how on earth are they supposed to get more ammo? I'm guessing it's hightly specilised and won't just be laying around or on sale anywhere.

 

I'd imagine there would be some way to restock. Granted, I doubt I'll put 001's guns to much use. On a similar note to that, as of August 1st, I'll be without steady internet access until the 15th. I'd prefer, for the sake of not letting my absence slow anyone down, to let 001 get mangled or something to that effect. I may use my data plan to come on here at least once a week in that time, but that depends on other things.
