yep. new oc. :3
[NAME]: Ronan [SPECIES]: human [RACE]: white/caucasian [PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION]: Ronan looks pretty cool (at least to me). he's a relatively well-built, lean, male human. he's 5’10”. he has long, shoulder length, unkempt brown hair. his nearly always has a 5 o’clock shadow, and his eyes are green like emeralds. he's pretty attractive in a rugged sort of way. Ronan typically wears brown or gray pants, a leather belt, boots, and a dark green jacket with the left sleeve and shoulder area cut off, worn either buttoned up or unbuttoned. roughly 60% of his body has been replaced with cybernetic equivalents or altered mechanically. his eyes, for example, can flip over, revealing complex sensors with a variety of functions on their backsides. his left arm is also entirely mechanical, with some tools, utilities, and weapons built in. sections of his back, shoulders, and high upper chest are also composed of machinery. he houses thermal vents on his back which expel excess energy and heat. everything from the low waist down is machinery too. my guy's got thrusters in his legs too, which allow him to move very quickly if he has to. [ABILITIES/SKILLS]: Ronan's cybernetics have the capability of assimilating almost any technology he finds into themselves, fully integrating automatically. this does take time, however. Ronan by default has a grappling hook, flashlight, net gun, and a flamethrower in his left arm, along with a couple other things that don't really matter. he keeps a large knife on his belt for melee if need be, and just for basic stuff. he is very skilled with machinery himself, able to build a FULLY FUNCTIONING PART IN A CAVE. WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS! [PERSONALITY]: Ronan has a strong moral compass, despite his being a mercenary for hire. if he is payed to do something he believes to be wrong or unjust, he will likely abandon his mission in favor of doing the right thing. he has a generally pleasant demeanor, giving people the benefit of the doubt if possible. however, he must also stay alert, and is never too trusting or naive. he respects hard work, and will be loyal to those he sees as equals. [BACKSTORY]: Ronan was once an ordinary working man, living an ordinary life in his ordinary home town out in the country. he did grunt work for a living. working at a saw mill and tree farm, he was earning just enough money to survive. there was a bar he frequented during his off hours, and one day, Ronan was talking with his coworkers about how he wished the work was a little easier, so he could finish faster and go home sooner. the bartender took note of his wishes, and brought him to the back of the establishment, where the bartender revealed that he was part of a secret machine worshipping organization/cult, and Ronan could choose to have his body modified to make his work easier, on the condition that he joined the church. Ronan took the bartender up on this offer, but he quickly realized that it was not what it was made out to be. there was a joy in the the struggles through which one had to go to obtain strength. which Ronan missed. Missing his older, simpler, more honest life, Ronan departed from the church in secret and fled from his hometown, believing it to be unjust and akin to cheating. unable to live normally elsewhere for fear of being recognized from his modifications, Ronan set out on the road, becoming a mercenary for hire, wandering the lands in hopes of finding a job and a place where he can finally settle down. he is fundamentally a survivor. [GOALS]: Ronan wants to escape the ever watchful eyes of the machinist cult and settle down somewhere where he can live peacefully. yes, i know what your thinking: "BuT SaNsSsS, IsN't tHiS KiNdA JuSt tHe wInTeR SoLdIeR FrOm tHe mCu???" no :/ i made it independently, and Ronan has a bunch of stuff that Bucky does not.
