TF:Fegaxeyl's character

TFE Forums: TFE Forum Index &gt;

As Ugozima remembers, my character is basically a magical cyborg (that's a somewhat childish description) who emerges in the middle of nowhere with no memories whatsoever besides the basics. I'm working on a sketch for him, but I have very thin ideas on the character itself (most of my creative efforts are devoted to this currently) so I'm looking for help with the character. Here is what I'm ready to reveal:


 * Imagine the Borg crossed with steampunk
 * The character will be some kind of prototype
 * The character will be male, though most likely only as an identification marker. (C-3PO wasn't human or male, but was referred to as male.)
 * He will be partly steam powered, though most likely through reaction with runes that are stored in a chest compartment

Those are all the parameters I have for the character at the moment. So, community - what ideas can you offer me?

Borg crossed with steampunk? Sounds awesome!

Anyway, your magical cyborg sounds like it would be reliant on somebody, and somewhat dimwitted. And as for his memory, did he exist before, or was he just created? Did he suffer an accident? If he did suffer an accident to sustain his memory loss, it can relate to the drought somehow. By the way, I've reserved episode two of season one for you to begin your storyline. 20:48, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for that! Hmm... I'm not sure about dimwitted. But perhaps a dark(-ish) version of Forrest Gump? He (the character) wouldn't be very intelligent, but if you give him something to do he'll get it done to the letter, and most likely the subtext too. As for his creation, I would imagine he would have been a real person, but somehow he ended up in a mysterious research project, which is all he knows of his life (which would be rediscovered through flashbacks and clues), and that his sudden appearance would be some sort of teleporter test gone awry. I would imagine he would stumble across Dancus or vice-versa, and the two would form a relationship - Dancus fascinated at the workings of character X, whilst X would... erm...

Before my brain runs out of creative juice, I'll point out his similarity to Shrike (or Grike, if you live in the US) from Mortal Engines.

C-3PO had masculine programming ;) . 10:31, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
