*Characters already in the game: 4, Cheetor, and Swindle
Character Information
*Character Name: Leland Bishop/Silas/Cylas
*Character Canon: Transformers Prime
*Age: In his fifties
*Race: Human... cyborg?
*Timeline/Pull Point: Human factor, after he gets hauled off.
*History: Onwards to TF Wiki!
*Personality: Silas believes himself a visionary, someone who can forge forward and plunge Earth into a new world order. He doesn’t necessarily think that it’s for the greater good, just that he wants to be on the top when it happens, Silas really likes winning. On the surface Silas is cold, calculating, efficient, and ruthless with his actions. He doesn’t believe in hesitating over matters such as morals or ethics, since thinking of such things could very well lead to failure. The acquiring of technology comes before all.
When it comes to Transformers, Silas regards them with a sense of awe and admiration for their size, strength, and technology. That said, he doesn’t totally view them as people, and as such has no qualms against trapping one and dissecting him to see what’s inside, or to steal a vital “organ”. They’re just machines after all, machines with a highly advanced AI, and they should never be treated as anything else.
After being crushed by several tons of robot, Silas was pulled out of it barely alive by his subordinates. They took it upon themselves to use Breakdown’s dead body as a form of life-support, therefore bringing their leader back from near death. Upon returning... Silas immediately saw his new body as a sign of his superiority. After all, a human mind mixed with the titanic might of a Cybertronian body meant that the possibilities were endless. He didn’t feel like he needed his men anymore, so he promptly destroyed them all. From that moment on he was Cylas (CYbernetic Life Augmented by Symbiosis)
*Powers/Abilities: Cylas was once a member of Special Operations for the United States military, and as such his skills with hand-to-hand combat, firearms, leadership, and stealth are pretty high. With his new Cybertronian body (Breakdown) Cylas also has many of Breakdown’s abilities, which include transformation, shoulder cannons, his hammer, and general brute strength. The unfortunate downside to the gaining of these new abilities is a slight decrease in sanity.
*Power Enhancements: I’m going to say strength and speed, something that’ll make him “better” (in his eyes) than the original Breakdown.
*Inventory: Just his mutilated carcass stuck inside a dead Breakdown
If AU, how does your character differ from canon?: N/A
Writing Samples
*First Person Sample:
[Talking with robots last did little for him the last time, but perhaps results will be different with a different set of machines. Naturally it never hurts to try. He figures, however, that the less they know about his unusual internal makeup, the better of he’ll be.]
I, like many others, enjoy a good challenge now and again. It would be foolish of me to ignore the chance to hone my skills with so many skilled warriors about. So I ask if any of you- [He nearly says “Cybertronians” but he manages to stop himself.] -fine folk would care for a friendly- or not so friendly depending on your temperament- sparring session. I specialize in hand-to-hand combat foremost, but I would be delighted to see examples of other forms of combat.
I await your undoubtedly eloquent responses.
