NAME; DH
AGE; 25
OTHER CHARACTERS PLAYED; N/a
IC Information
CHARACTER NAME; DLN 008 Elec Man
AGE; Unknown appears to be in his teens, probably a year or two old at most.
CANON; Mega Man Powered Up
CANON POINT; After Mega Man beats Dr. Wily the first time and he is repaired.
FAMILY TYPES; Metal Empire, Nature Spirits, Unknown
APPEARANCE; As entering the digital world turns robots into Humans, it’s not that big of a change for him, as he is already very humanoid in appearance. He has fair skin and blue eyes. He stands at 5’9” and is more on the slimmer side then built, especially when compared to his brothers. Elec’s hair is near shoulder length, purple, and almost always styled. Until he gets more clothing he would wear his body suit, Lightning mask, wrist ring things, chest guard, and giant….boot….things.
PERSONALITY; Elec Man is many things. Humble is not one of them. The bot is extremely arrogant, haughty, and loves to wax-prose about himself and what he deems beautiful, (mostly himself). This is not without cause though, until Rock was remodeled into Mega Man, he was oft cited as Dr. Light’s most advance creatio. He was designed to manage power plants, including nuclear ones, had the highest processing speed, was physically fast, and everyone reminded and praised him for that. It’s not hard to see how someone could become as egotistical and conceited like Elec Man did. He was the golden boy, and by gum he knew and enjoyed it.
Despite his arrogant and conceited attitude, Elec Man is reasonably responsible and calm, especially with what he has to do. Managing a nuclear power plant requires these traits. Along with that he carries himself with pride and nobility; in fact that mask of his could easily be an add-on, to mimic a masquerade mask. He speaks very clearly, if effeminately, along with added prose, often either insulting or complimenting someone’s beauty. Once again his processor was made to be the fastest, at it’s time, most likely created to help give orders and to act, to prevent and/or contain a core meltdown. He has been stated to make quick, rapid, and fairly accurate judgment because of this.
He has an obsession with beauty. He tends to make some good observation about people, when he is not overly examining their beauty, and being too into himself. Case in point, in his storyline when facing Copy Mega Man, he immediately knew it was a copy, because “the real Mega Man eyes were not clouded like a thunderstorm’s.” Or in other words he immediately noticed the differences between a perfectly reproduced clone and the real one, instead of falling for the personality change that most of the other reprogrammed bots had. And while he may not seem like it, both good and evil he is fond of his family and siblings, giving them compliments on both their outer and inner beauty when not concentrating on himself.
On the flip side, even though he is three law compliment, Elec Man, when both himself or under Dr. Wily’s control, has shown a disturbing sadistic streak, spefically with shocking people. Though this is toned down A LOT, when he is normal and is more of a threat. Most of his quotes, when under Dr. Wily’s control, involve him enjoying the idea of sending a lot of voltage into the bots, and when not under, he sounds thrilled with the idea to give Wily some “Shock Therapy.” Very thrilled..
Surprsingly and perhaps even desipte the narrarsicism, Elec has a sentenmental side to himself. While he does show fondest, when he is on Dr. Lights side, he does show concern for what will happen to his feel Light Numbers. Before a few fights he had to talk himself into going throught with it, espically with Fire Man's. He reminded himself that for Fire's sake he had to stop him and "extiguinsh the light of a million watts." There's a bit of a philospohical side to him too. As he agreed with Bomb Man remaining him of inner beauty being important. Using a Fireworks metaphor. Or when confronting Time Man and mentioning how a moment that fight was, could have memorizing beauty.
HISTORY; This is pretty much all to his history.
SAMPLES
FIRST PERSON;
2.) What would you say is your greatest strength?
My greatest strength? Why when you’re as perfect as I, there is no such thing as a single, greatest strength. There’s just so much to consider. Like the shockingly, wondrous sight of my beauty. Or the purity of my gorgeous heart. There’s also the blinding magnificent of my electricity, as it elegantly courses through everything that would impede it. Of course that is all, but a sample of my greatness. I would be quite content with telling you more about myself, once I am finished with what I’m doing.
3.) If you were given the option to stay in the Digital World or return to your home, which would you choose? Why?
Dear me. I must say, once you get used to it the Digital has its own quaint, even rustic charm. And yet, I do not belong here nor wish to stay here. I long for the subtle masterpiece that I was. The quiet symphony that my gears and servos would create as I worked. The masterful hands of my dear Professor, that subtle gentle look he had, when he finished another masterpiece. The tender, gentle kindness that Rock and Roll would provide, as they worked in concert with each other, taking care of everyone. Each of my siblings had their own precious gifts that I would give almost anything to see again. Even the ogre and his grating voice, I dearly miss it and its sublime way of comforting someone.
4.) What ability would you most like to have?
I would love to have my lightning back. It’s not much to ask for, something that blindingly beautiful. And yet it would only be here for an instant, before disappearing and leaving a despairing, yet beautiful memory of something to never appear in that shape again. It was one of the best parts of my perfection.
THIRD PERSON;
Elec Man had spent all day in the bathroom. He just could not get his hair to set right and frustrated him. More than it did that he was human now. Sure it was nice to be able to style it, but it was hard. It was hard and no one understood his anguish! And it bugged him that a lot of humans took so little care in their appearance. It was a travesty! A crime! A total mishap that even he could not understand.
Elec Man sighed as he washed the product out his hair, shivering in the experience at how different water felt on a flesh and blood body, instead of a metal one. He ran a towel through, meticulously drying it.
BANG BANG BANG! It seemed like his roommates were pounding on the door, but he just ignores it and continues to figure out how to properly primp and pamper himself. Perfection took time, didn’t they know that?
“Hmmm?” Elec Man tilted his head as he finished drying his hair and began to brush his it. A spark of inspiration came to him. Pulling his hair back, he put a simple red hair tie on, giving himself a simple pony tail. “Oh, yes this looks fabulous. It is true what they say, sometimes simple truly is best.” He murmured to himself as he admired his appearance. While no where near as perfect as he use to look, it was a fantastic substitute. After four hours he finally left the bathroom, giving his roommate a quizzical look as they rushed into the bathroom.

Date: 2013-12-16 08:34 pm (UTC)I think you may have received some of this crit before but I think it still applies. So here goes.
You play so many characters that their voices really blend together. Cover up the icon and take out names and I don't think anyone could tell them apart. The only one who has any kind of uniqueness to their voice is Cam and I think the reason is obvious. I know you've canon reviewed and tried to improve, but the only one who's had any sort of improvement is Terra and her voice still blends in with the others, though hers blends in with Cam's.
That aside, you've really slowed down a lot. You're on break now I think and so you picked up another character, but I have no idea why. Your tagging has gotten so slow that I feel like you're probably just barely making AC with everyone but Cam. I know you're a mod so your work comes first and that you have a right to play in your own game, but I think you should look at how fast and energetic you were a few months ago compared to now. I think you should consider dropping a few characters, and I think Juri and Hollyleaf are your weakest. I can't say about Sophia since you just now apped her.
Finally, and this is more of a personal preference thing, but I really dislike the way you post private posts to the network. It seems attention grabby. Okay, great, it's Maya's birthday and all. Take that shit to a log or an IC inbox. Having a post like that just clogs up the main comm. If you have to have people know it's there, link it on plurk or something. It would be different if the posts were private to several or filtered away like Cam's other post. More importantly, [community profile] themainframe is the network comm. It's supposed to be for D-Terminal use. Obviously some threads shift toward action, but in general they should always be voice/text/audio threads. The world won't abruptly burst into flames if you start a log post the same way you started Cam's last network post.
You're a great mod, even if your plots are a little boring and even if you stretch plots out for weeks when they should only last for one week maximum. You should probably look for some other head mods because whether you want to admit it or not, your current ones look like they do jack squat. You are the face of the game. It should be split between the three of you but from what I can see, everyone is always running to you. Seriously consider, and have them consider as well, how much work you put into the game versus what DH and Jade put into the game. For the longest time neither of them were even in the game and were out of touch with things ICly. It was blatantly obvious whenever someone would ask them questions instead of you. Think of your mod team as a whole, head mods and helper mods and whoever else, and seriously consider rearranging things. The game would run smoother if you took out Jade and DH as mods and replaced them with your comods who actually help run the game. I know you three are friends but I think you're probably at least somewhat good friends with the helper mods as well, and I think it's clear to anyone the helper mods do a hell of a lot more than Jade and DH. It seriously looks like you're running things by yourself and if you got one or two more people to help you out, you'd be a lot less stressed out and could keep up with all the characters you have.
I know this is very tl;dr but I think these are all things you need to hear. You listed your status as a mod at The Mainframe so that's why I gave you crit on that. You really are a great person and roleplayer when you're not bogged down by stress and work. I just hope you can get a backbone. The Mainframe could be a much better game if you cut off the dead weight. You'd be happier, the players would be happier, and I think even Jade and DH would be happier in the long run. I know it's their baby but they're both doing more harm than good and I bet it'll be nice to get a chance to play in the game without having to worry about modwork.
