Name: "Technoneural Electromilitant Demolition Mecha Beta Model 3", "T.E.D.M Beta Model-3", "TED"
Short Description: TED's cautious, timid and kind mentality contrast its bulking intimidating size; not to mention its impressive arsonal. TED is also a curious creature, taking a form of pleasure in learning about life and its inhabitants. Despite Teds impressive weapondry, some mentioned before, Ted never uses it on him own, or participates in any violence either.
Age: When it comes to ways of thinking/processing information, and overall attitude Ted is about 11 mentally (abiet, a quiet observative 11).
Gender: N/A (is a Mecha, or "robot", though voice module sounds more masculine than feminine).
Date of Birth: The T.E.D.M Beta Model 3 was designed in 2048 (only one model exists, that being Ted, and no more advanced models exist, as inadequete funding prevented Boris from making any substantial upgrades).
Job/Mission/etc: TED has no real mission or "purpose" beyond surviving and listening to whatever [] says, but it does take joy in imagining a safe place where it and [] can thrive without threat.
Job/Mission/etc satisfaction: TED hardly gets sad or dissapointed.
Health: unaging and resistant to most types of damage, TED is in superb health.
Relationships: TED's only permanent relationship is with [] (who acts as a best friend or big brother to TED), though on sight most others are either driven back in fear or pushed foward in aggression.
Pets: N/A
World: "Ashes and Embers" universe
Residence: Nyurbinskiy District Russian SSR
Residence description: A sparsly populated area, most of its population lives along the siberian railroad which goes through its southern side. The rest is mostly vast forests and lakes.
Height/Weight: 17ft wide, 19ft tall
Ethnicity/species: mecha, robot
Skin tone/eye color: Ted doesn't have skin (obviously), but the plates of metal that make up his structure are a light grey, as if the metal had only been painted a shade to cover up the color of the metal itself. Ted doesn't have eyes either; his facial frame is one giant screen, with a digital line which moves only when Ted talks (think Karen, from spongebob, for a referemce). When Ted is in control the hue and electronical line is blue, but when Ted allows someone else control, it turns green.
Hairstyle/clothing style: Ted posesses no hair nor clothings
Body type: Teds body, compared to any humans, is much larger and bulkier. Despite this, Teds body type can still be mirrored to that of a fat humanoid.
Other Accessories: Teds "feet" are themselves rectangular in basic shape, and are equipped as tank wheels would be (this allows Ted to both walk, and "drive" to get around). Topping his body (below the head area of course) are miniture silo's, holding various rockets and missles. Besides these, there lays the hatch one can open to climb inside of Ted. Teds arms are bulky and packed full of ammo, as Teds hands could transform into massive heavy machine guns.
Talents: Ted can see futher than nearly anyone else, attributed to both Teds height and digital sensors. No one who had ever met Ted, not even [] himself know how, but Ted is able to walk around nimbly (abiet slowely of course) when Ted chooses to.
Skills: Ted is an impressive tracker, and can track various animals/humans. This doubles as being able to scout an area for clues of life. Learning to harness its strength, Ted is impressivly strong, and can perform labor tasks such as clearing paths, construction of larger items, and altering the world around it (digging moats, or streams, clearing away trees, etc).
Habbits: electronic buzzing (Teds version of "Humming"), unsettling bouts of complete stillness and utter silence, clicking of fingers (this is only a notable habit because Teds size makes this "clicking" comparable to the sound of slamming a car door shut); Ted is either twitching profoundly or dead still.
Hobbies: animal tracking, watching, observing, etc; Ted has taken an odd interest in little organic creatures, ranging from small birds to large bears and wolfs. Star gazing; when Ted isn't looking down, up is the next best thing. Having taken an interest in the little bright specks far from even its massive reach, Ted had started by first just enjoying their night time presence, counting them, making little patterns out of them in its spare time. Learning a little bit about Astrology from [], Ted now also enjoys finding constolations out of the star clusters.
Morality: Although at first glance Ted seems rather cold and observative, put in certian situations Teds generally good nature shows. Ted shys away from violence, even against the smallest of creatures, prefers compromise over oppression or intimidation. It is like this to an extreme, as doing anything violent or harmful will cause Ted to become distressed, which will cause its circuts to go haywire and malfunction (sometimes it gets so bad Ted can overhead, and will have to be fixed).
Weakness: Teds anti violent nature and compassion can be exploited. Despite Teds vast storage space and information capacity, such a personality still opens Ted up to being easily manipulated and swayed. Despite the armor and weapons, if one can make it past those they could climb inside of Ted, where it is completly vunerable to sabatoge or even forceful control.
Motivation: Before meeting [] Ted had no motivation beyond curiosity for moving throughout the world, but with Teds best friend and companion, the main motivation is keeping each other safe, staying close and (more so for Ted) finding a sort of "paradise" to settle and survive in.
Discouragment: Being presented with stressful situations can of course, cause Ted to short circut. Ted gets extremly nervous when [] has to leave for extended periods (usually ranging from having to scout out a big area for a few hours, to being gone for a week or two at a time for various reasons).
Confidence: With no big problems presented (and [] at its side) Ted gives off a calm collected confidence, which to anyone who can get a little close to Ted, may even be considered charming (on the opposite end, it usually comes off as creepy to anyone else).
Greatest Fear: losing [], plain and simple.
History/Backstory: During the Giulded Years in the Soviet Union, its government funded and proposed a number of top secret projects, constructing various automaton-like war machines (dubbed simply "Mechas"), AI or human driven alike. "Project Voyennaya Mashina" was one such project, lead by Boris Kazimir, aimed at creating an indestructable "Mecha suit" for Russian soldiers to fight in, which would impose maximum casulities on enemy troops whilst leaving the Russian army at zero. Boris conducted his research and construction in an undisclosed labratory; Nyurbinskiy District Russian SSR. His first Model (T.E.D.M Beta Model 1) has been started in 2029 and completed in 2040. After recieving the results and schematics, Soviet high command sent back various demands; the mech was not mobile enough, more weapondry was needed, and command response functions/basic robotic intelligence was a must have. Boris might have gotten furious, that his work had been denied after spending so much time on it; instead he focused on making the nessicary fixations and used the demands to fuel his own goals of creating an intelligent AI within the machine. The second Beta Model had been completed in 2051, and Boris was estatic. The AI he had developed for the Mecha was not only extremly versitile, but responsive to individusal commands. Boris believed it may even be able to adapt an emotional intelligence, as if it itself were a human of sorts. The Soviet command on the other hand, despised this exact quality, scolding Boris for integrating an AI that could very well intefere and go against the suits wearer. The higher ups also informed Boris of the devestating war they were currently in, firmly reminding him that his comforts could easily be taken away. Devestated as he was, Boris soon began looking as statistics and news involving the war, and realized things were bordering on dire. Dire it would get; unknown to Boris, as he was frantically working on an AI fix, nuclear war would begin. The fix was completed in a hasty three years (2054), and Boris thought it would be the final model. He didn't believe there were enough years to completly reprogram the AI and redo the insides of the machine, so what he had focus on was putting certian failsafes within the AI's code, to "dumb it down" per say; his fix though, was haphazordous, so he decided he would send reports to the soviet leaders. Boris would try to communicate with the Soviet high command, with no progress. Weeks spent in vein, he had finally decided to lock up the lab and travel to the capital himself. It is not known if he made it, or how far he got if he didn't, but traveling through the nuclear torn Russian SSR; he never returned to his labratory. The T.E.D.M Beta Model-3 stay dormant for years, shut down, in a facility running on reserve power as the world around it burns. It is now 2078; the world is reawakening after the worst of the nuclear fallout leaves the survivors adapted to its haze. A large nuclear storm in the area was the cause of TEDs "awakening". Said storm eventually rolled right over the labratory, by now completly shut down, and on the last of it reserves; a huge lightening strike ended up hitting just outside the main area, aimed directly at one of its huge generators. This had done it, powering said generator up began a huge electrical surge throughout the compound, causing explosions and the collapse of the entire place. One of the surges went directly though a line attached to Ted, powering it on. When Ted was powered on though, the energy fried through some of its wirings. This allowed the AI within it to activate, immedientally overriding every failsafe put into place to nullify its intelligence. Ted was awake, it was sentient, and it was scarred. It frantically knocksd away the wires and cords connecting to it from within the lab, uncontrollably moving foward it crashed through walls and wiring, all while the storm kept rampaging outside. After a few hours Ted escaped into the woods, alone and scarred, it would begin its journey...
Delta Notes: First posted OC! Im really proud of this sweet baby (gigantic killer robotic) boy uwu. Just to clarify, "[]" is refering to an OC i've not yet created, that will tie into Teds story!
