Name: Cooper Price
Alias: Bl.An.C. [Blast Android Class]
Age: 26/5 (Human Years/'Android' Years)
Gender: Male
Personality: A scientist at heart, he would observe most things before doing anything. In combat, Bl.An.C. would observe his enemy, think of strategies to take him/her down effectively then execute it. He is direct and to the point sometimes and speaks monotonously through the suit. Being inside the suit all these years has turned him cold and unfeeling, and the turn of events where his close friend betrayed him drew him closer to the void of heartlessness. Though he may act like that, he has a strong sense of camaraderie when he has begun to trust someone but his trust has become more of an impossibility to take. Allies will benefit from his protection [allies to him are determined as those who share a goal with him] and he admires gladiators that go out on a limb to protect those who can't fight or care about. No matter the enemy, he will never kill another. He may threaten to do so, but the best he will do is to permanently maim the enemy to take him off the gladiators list.
He speaks in a way that he states the nature of his statement before saying it.
Ex. "
Query: What is the flavor of that ice cream?"
"
Observation: Your ice cream is melting."
This speech pattern is only applicable when Bl.An.C. has his helmet on. When he does not, he would speak normally.
Abilities:
[spoiler=]
Weapon Materialization: - Due to advancements in weapons teleportation, android suit is capable to receiving and sending back weapons from a fixed location, enabling versatility in the field of combat. Some weapons cannot be present in the same slot and therefore the present item must be sent back before claiming a new one.
- Plasma Gun ::
Slot :: Takes the area slotted in either arm or both.
Form :: Cylindrical in form with a half sphere at its end. Covers the entirety of Bl.An.C.'s forearm and hands.
Main Function :: Capable of firing either bolts of cyan plasma or a continuous stream of it. Streaming of plasma can drain Bl.An.C.'s energy reserves if he is not careful.
Weakness :: The guns themselves are volatile and may explode if damaged enough.
Notes :: Overloading of the gun is possible, the cyan energy turns white and is enough to melt through the most hardiest of metals. Bl.An.C. can only keep this up for several seconds before the guns actually explode or go offline.
- Beam Blade ::
Slot :: Takes the area slotted in either arm or both.
Form :: Resembles an arm guard that protects the backside of the hand and most of the forearm from blunt attacks.
Main Function :: The arm guard generates a powerful katar-like blade of pure energy, constantly humming and extremely hot.
Weakness :: The arm guard is volatile and may explode if damaged enough.
Notes :: Bl.An.C. often uses the Beam Blade in tandem with other weapons on his other arm slot, usually with a ranged weapon to maximize his combat ability.
- Shield Generator ::
Slot :: Takes the area slotted in either arm. Can only be found in one arm slot.
Form :: Resembles an arm guard that protects the backside of the hand. Has a crystalline like object in the shape of a diamond at its center.
Main Function :: Capable of generating a four foot by four foot cyan deflector shield. Energy blasts will be absorbed into the shield while physical attacks will be bounced harmlessly off its face. Opacity for the behind the shield is zero whilst on the reverse side; total.
Weakness :: Though rarely seen and noticed, the very center of the shield is weakest at the same time its strongest. When a powerful enough force is solely concentrated on its center, the shield stop functioning. This is due to it being a prototype, much like the rest of the suit.
Notes :: Rarely used defensively due to Bl.An.C.'s usual strategies. Mostly used to ram against opponents and drive them to the ground, where Bl.An.C. can easily gain the upper hand.
- Iron Fist ::
Slot :: Takes the area slotted in either arm or both.
Form :: Resembles two massive gauntlets that have four screws visible on either side, two on the wrist and another pair at the end of the gauntlet. Made of overlapping plates of metal.
Main Function :: Capable of generating an insane amount of voltage that is used offensively against targets. Has own battery source but will still drain the suits power. The battery is there to minimize the drainage of the suits personal power core.
Weakness :: The gauntlet, though sturdy, may still break with continued use against hardened materials. Due to its own power core, if the Iron fists were to explode, they would be considerably larger and more dangerous than that of the others.
Notes :: Overloading of the Iron Fist is possible and is used constantly by Bl.An.C. though it is very likely that the extra output of electrical energy will have an effect on the suit's visual input.
- Missile Pods ::
Slot :: Takes the area slotted in either shoulder or leg. Two pods at a time.
Form :: Resembles two rectangular boxes attached to the leg/shoulder via metal clamps.
Main Function :: Fires two missiles per pod, missiles travel at supersonic speeds and are guided by the suit's own targetting system. If the targetting system does not work, a small laser beam may be 'painted' onto the target as the missile would go to intercept via a laser designator installed on each of the pods. Additional ammunition can be easily called for the same way the weapons are. Drains little to no energy of the suit, except when calling for additional munitions.
Weakness :: Missile pods are volatile, even more so with ammunition still inside its confines. Much more sensitive to attacks that damage it.
Notes :: Usually used to guide the enemy towards a specific location or to weaken an enemy's defense.
- Wing Pack ::
Slot :: Takes the area slotted at his back.
Form :: A sleek pack that forms two wings propelled by rockets on the main pack and each end of the wings.
Main Function :: Allow the pilot air superiority or flight capability when needed. Can retract the wings when not in use. Drains the suit energy considerably.
Weakness :: Exposed wing pack is very susceptible to attacks from behind. Volatile.
Notes :: Used often to quickly gain the upper hand when observation is over. Bl.An.C. occasionally uses the wing pack as a bomb, throwing it at enemies for additional damage.
- Blast Cannon ::
Slot :: Takes the area slotted at either arm or both.
Form :: Similar to the Plasma Guns but differ in one thing. Four little pulse emitters are laid out at the edges of the cannon's sphere.
Main Function :: Capable of delivering invisible blasts of mach 3 energy. Literally blasting away any target within its blast radius. Drains a lot of energy whenever used but the blasts can be augmented to fire smaller, more concentrated waves instead of its usual.
Weakness :: Recharge time is directly proportional to the power used for its blast. The cannon is sensitive and could explode violently if damaged while it charges up.
Notes :: Used to barrage the enemy with small amounts of blast energy. Overloading causes the cannon to explode after its final attack.
- Laser Drones ::
Slot :: A transmitter takes the area on either shoulder.
Form :: The drones themselves are spherical, have one optical sensor at its very center and four laser guns that rotate around it like a ferris wheel. The transmitter is a small pad like device that transmits orders that come directly from Bl.An.C.
Main Function :: Sends in a maximum of ten drones. Only ten drones. Can be called in in any number, as long as the total number of drones in the entire battle is ten. Transmitting signal is 50 mile radius around Bl.An.C.
Weakness :: Drones are fragile and will explode when directly hit with a powerful enough hit.
Notes :: Used usually to split up team fighters or to act as a diversion.
Android Body : - The suit is durable, capable of protecting its pilot from hits that would usually break bone or rend flesh. Has life support, allowing the pilot to breathe underwater/outer space for a few minutes.
Optical Sensor : - The suit's one eye can see in infrared other than its usual vision. It can zoom in and out of a view.

General Weaknesses:
[spoiler=]
- The suit is susceptible to an EMP blast, an attack of the sort would render the suit powerless if damaged severely already or its systems in disarray.
- Large amounts of electricity, water, or radiation may affect it's delicate circuitry and disable his power and weapons for a moderate amount of time, leaving Bl.An.C. incredibly open for attack.
- Technopathy has an effect on him.
- Bl.An.C. favors the offensive over defensive, leaving his guard down in order to strike.
- Switching in weapons have a lag in time before they fully come in play, a second or two is the time it takes for a weapon to fully materialize in or out. Switching between two weapons of the same slot will take one to two seconds.
- You could stop the transport by blocking the energy strips along his body with solid matter.

BackStory:
Bl.An.C. was not an Android to begin with. He was once human and known as Cooper Price. He was an excellent robot designer and had 5 years of experience under his belt. He had designed numerous robots that helped out with the factories to increase production and hospitals to increase the success rate of surgeries. It was not foreign for this man to dab in the purposes of robotics in the art and sciences of war. He was leading the team in the creation of the Blast Androids, one of the best androids built for war. The program however was shut down due to numerous problems such as protests and propaganda from the people. The President and the military then issued that they keep working on the Androids and is under classified information.
The Blast Androids went down under, Cooper and his team tested and revised the androids in secret. Cooper loved robots and couldn't put down his pet project. His colleagues had shared his vision, a dream that the Blast Android would never be needed again after the war that the military was planning, to reduce the bloodshed between fellow humans. In that light, they all did their best to make the 'impossible', possible.
Everyone of his co-workers shared this dream, even more so did Alice Kettler. Soon enough, they were engaged.
When the final schematics were done, they were immediately sent to the military for review. It was almost immediately approved, with one condition attached. They wanted pilot to be fitted into the android body. It was later revealed that the military was never after the androids' participation in the war, they wanted suits. They wanted them to change it and modify it to become a suit. Enraged by this, Cooper completed the project, but using himself as the controls. He went into the suit but never came back human. He used the suit to demonstrate the danger in using this tech with a human inside. He used the Solar Flare Bolter to prove his point.
He fired on a nearby military compound, bathing it in an insane amount of radiation. He sent a message that human error will always occur, and that machines will be the most viable resource in a war. But as he landed, the suit could never be removed as it melded with him due to the intensity of the radiation. The circuitry had also melded partially with his brain. His memories were still intact but most, if not all, of his personality was eliminated. He had changed.
His colleagues were hunted down and tried for mass murder. Forcing Cooper and Alice into hiding, the two retreated into an abandoned underground compound in the desert. One of their secret hideaways when they were still a group under the eyes of the government. Cooper, now calling himself Bl.An.C., refused to allow any more of his allies to die, trying hard to search for them as they were hunted down and killed.
When he joined the RHG, he came to prove his point once again in front of an audience.
NOTE :: The Solar Flare Bolter was an experimental gun that mimics the power of a star's solar flare, concentrating it into one powerful blast.
Continuing into the RHG, Bl.An.C. defeated the Gambler, achieved victory over SinkHole [even gaining a friend], lost to a clan leader alongside SinkHole and won in a duel against his own clan leader. This however, proved to be used against his intentions. His friend, John Mason, used these battles to showcase the android suit's capability and now embarks to send the world into the next global war.
Bl.An.C.'s helmet has one central gree
n eye where three grey streaks radiate from it that act as locks. His entire body is covered in a jet black suit with green stripes that line his arms and legs, a hollow oval on his back, a circle around his shoulder that extends downwards from the collarbone as two parallel lines that end before his pelvis. Each of these are energy strips and locks for the equipment to garner energy from and to lock onto on transport.
When the helmet would be retracted, it reveals Cooper's head, silver brown hair and grey green eyes. His pale skin that forgot the feeling of sunshine. Currently, the head is the only bodypart that can be seen without the suit, the rest is still melded to him.
[/spoiler]
Bl.An.C. was in a white room. He was s
tanding there doing practically nothing except stare into the whiteness of the room.
A voice of a woman boomed inside: "Hey, it's time to test out your weapons!". It was Alice, Bl.An.C.'s colleague and lover. She was in the control room, looking at the Blast Android.
"
Affirmation: Agreed." Bl.An.C. opened his palms and spread his arms wide. "
Calling: Plasma Guns"
Alice pressed a few buttons."Bl.An.C., you do not need to say those words. your opponent will know your moves if you do so." Alice said, sliding to another console.
Back in the testing room, Bl.An.C.'s forearms were enveloped in a bright white light,in a few seconds, the light dissipated in a flash and a slim cylindrical weapon replaced the Blast Android's forearms. The weapon was sleek and had no visible rivets or nails. It was gray and had a semi sphere on its front end. It also had five small circular lights that indicate the power of the plasma used.
"
Response: Just being dramatic, Alice" Bl.An.C. said raising his arms at targets that popped up from the walls. The plasma guns hummed to life, the five lights began to charge up power within seconds. Bl.An.C.'s targeting systems locked onto the targets. The pseudo-android fired a volley of plasma fire at the targets, disintegrating the very center of the red and white striped target.
"Shall we try a moving one this time?" Alice smiled. She tapped a few controls and pulled down a lever on her console.
Bl.An.C. returned the guns, immediately disappearing in a flash of light. In mere seconds, black armguards took its place. A hatch above him slid open and drones began to flood the test room. The spherical drones scanned their opponent, and revealing their laser guns hidden in small hatches at their sides. "Careful now, I don't like cleaning up melted bits of metal. Try to slice them cleanly and in two." Alice joked.
"
Affirmation: If they'd stop exploding when I do, I'd gladly do so." The Blast Android's armguards quickly generated a powerful katar like blade.
"Combat sequence initiating." Alice said, counting down from five to one. Once she said the final number she pressed a blinking red button on her side which told the drones to commence attack.
Three drones swoop in, lasers trained onto their black suited target. Bl.An.C. ducked and rushed forward. Once the drones were past his head, he turned around and connected with a quick swipe of the beam blade, eliminating two of the ten drones. Bl.An.C. immediately raised his other arm, blocking laser fire
