Species: Android

• Unique Characteristics
  
  SPOILER: Click to show
  An extremely high supply of artificial energy means that androids do not tire easily when using energy-based techniques, and due to their mechanical function they can continue to at least partially function when suffering from injuries such as decapitation, being capable of speech and potentially later reparation to become fighting-able once again. Their ability to endure attacks is shown in their ability to up their power level in a fight for a transformation they are using by +(x1). This trait is called Durability and can be quite useful.
  
  [To Be Learned/Acquired] Overdrive (x3)- The android overcharges their bodies with energy, leading to a boost of 3x power-level but causing wear to their internal systems if used for too long. This currently registered as a 'Special Technique' Androids gain, that can be used in conjunction with its other transformations. Overdrive may stack on top of other transformations, so if the Android were to use a their (x6) α form they could fight at a level of someone with (x9) their base power level.
  
  Anti-Aura Sensing/Un-sensable- Androids cannot be sensed by the technique called Ki Sensing, its variants, directly. They can however be sensed by those using a Scouter device, yet these devices are generally easy to destroy.
  
  Durability- These characters can up their transformations by +(x1) during a fight when they are battling an opponent on the defensive.
  
  Reconstruction- Androids may completely rebuild themselves after a fight if they die by paying 1000 Zeni. This allows them to avoid going to Other World at a generally small cost.

History:

Ude Dokei was a human boy born on Earth to a very average family. He was the second oldest of three children and lived in a small town where most everyone knew each other. Ude Dokei grew up in a world of his own in order to cope with what life threw at him. Ude was a scrawny kid who was labelled as a nerd by others and, for most of his life, he was picked on and bullied. In addition to having the misfortune of being a scrawny, nerdy kid with little to no friends throughout his life due to social anxiety, he was also homosexual. This was never really a problem for him until his parents became so outspokenly against people who didn't fit the standard cis-gender, heterosexual mold. With all of this going on in his life, he lived in constant fear.

Ude Dokei began to try and work on "fixing" his flaws. He started forcing himself to eat more and to work on his physical fitness as well as learning martial arts. For the things he couldn't fix he ignored them as much as he possibly could. Though he was consistent and did whatever he could to improve his shortcomings, very little changed in his life. He got to the point where he thought his only option was to physically remove himself from his troubles. Being financially dependent on his parents and having no experience with the outside world, leaving didn't seem like a viable option. He was ready to give up until his town began to talk about the infamous Red Ribbon Army. He heard that they were recruiting and would take anyone. As a last-ditch effort to improve his life, Ude Dokei tracked down the Red Ribbon Army and requested to join. The Army agreed to take him on one condition.

The Red Ribbon Army took Ude Dokei in but because of his poor physical condition they required him to undergo a special "program". This special program was dubbed by the RR as the "Android Initiative" and meant that Ude Dokei would undergo a vast transformation. Ude Dokei had no clue that the scientists planned on completely reconfiguring him, even going as far as only keeping his brain and a few of his physical features. The main body that the Red Ribbon Army used was from an Alien whose body was recovered a few years prior. This alien was of a race they had not yet encountered and was characterized by their teal skin (though the skin of the body they recovered faded to an icy blue). Ude Dokei was literally put into another beings body and was mechanized. His "serial number" was R32.

Before the Red Ribbon Army could finish their weapon that was once Ude Dokei, their base was destroyed with very little left behind. Android #R32 was abandoned under a pile of rubble that would later shift due to an earthquake. Android #R32 was shaken free and, as a result of how the Android was dislodged, he was activated. The boy once known as Ude Dokei woke up in an unfamiliar place, totally unaware of how long he had been unconscious. He was startled to see that his reflection was now one of blue skin and a muscular body. Digging through the wreckage of the old Red Ribbon base he was made in, the Android stumbled upon schematics and old journal entries. After piecing them together, he learned of what he really was. Not wanting to go back to who he was, nor knowing if it was possible, the Android took on the name Sprocket and planned to start a new life as a powerful and mechanical being.

Starting Planet: Earth
Techniques:

• Offensive
  1. [N1] Scream Beam: Sprocket uses internal mechanisms to focus his ki, allowing him to fire a beam attack from his mouth. This attack can only be fired while his mouth is open; if not internal damage will occur.
  
• Support
  1. [SU] Flight: Sprocket uses ki to take flight supported by his internal machinery.
  2. [SU] Android Barrier: Sprocket thrusts energy outward from his body to encase himself in a spherical energy barrier. This technique is used primarily defend against attacks but can only extend out in a sphere with a diameter that is only 2 feet longer than the height of Sprocket.

Notes:
The name puns I chose for my character come from various places:
Sprocket was related to gears so I chose it for the Android Name.
Ude Dokei is a pun on the Japanese word for Wristwatch which I thought would match the Android Name well because watches traditionally use gears.
Tīru is just Japanese for Teal because it's my favorite color and the color for the body of the Android was planned on having teal/blue skin.
