Name: Jonathan Guntherson
Age: 43
Role: Mechanic (Or in his words: Inventor of Extraordinary Brilliance!)
Equipment: A toolkit containing a hammer, (the small, one-handed version) a wrench, screwdriver,nails, small magnet on extendable pole (30 centimetres is the maximum length), screws. Five rolls of ducttape (30 metres of ducttape on each), a canteen filled with some crude oil.
Stuff that is not considered part of the toolkit: A labcoat that used to be white but is now a charred and tattered thing covered in stains of questionable chemicals. A pair of glasses with the glass missing. (so it's only the frame) A stainless steel watch that doesn't work and never moves passed 14:05. And don't forget the cowboy hat.
Weapons(s): .38 pistol, no ammo, carried in a holster at his hip and usually covered by the labcoat. (Not that the lack of bullets matters as Jonathan's shooting is horrible) Any other weapon is basically a part of the toolkit. (wrenches hurt!)
Skills: Building stuff. Taking apart stuff. Thinking he's a master gunslinger!
Appearance:
Jonathan is a somewhat short man with a thin frame. black hair mixed with grey struggles to cover his skull and fight the encroaching baldness. He also has a thin moustache and a long goatee.
Race: European
History:
Jonathan grew up in a village that was built right next to a Nuclear power plant that had been spared by the great war. However, general lack of maintenance combined with folks collecting shiny items from the complex machinery had caused the reactor to break down and start leaking radioactive materials, although a full meltdown was miraculously averted. The higher than average amounts of radiation has caused a large number of complications in the populace. In Jonathan's case, his brain has been damaged which makes him mentally somewhat unstable.
Regardless, Jonathan picked up his fellows love for taking apart old devices and trying to figure out how they worked. When there wasn't anything interesting left to salvage in his opinion, he simply left. A lack of money made him join up with the flying bullets where he took up the role of mechanic, charged with fixing everything that wasn't a firearm or an explosive (can't be trusted around those), or hilariously often, break things when he gets one of his bouts of mad scientist behaviour.
Edit: I tried but couldn't come up with anything. So I'll just post the robot without story. Sorry, folks.
Name: Invincible Super Robot FRIGERIZER Z!!!! (Yes, the exclamation marks are necessary)
Age: unknown
Role: robot
Equipment: A large refrigerator equiped with both a compartment for merely cooled items and one for frozen stuff. It's mostly filled by cans of old beer. (This is the main frame and it's placed lying on its back so the doors open upwards.) It's powered by a small nuclear fuel cell. Both the driver's seat (removed from a car) and controls are mounted on top of the refrigerator's door. At the front of FRIGERIZER Z are mounted a pair of mechanical arms ending in small scoops. You know, like the things you find in a sandbox.
A small dune buggy's weels and electricalengine provide locomotion. Finally, a large fan is placed (behind the driver's seat) to provide dramatic gusts of wind to anyone sitting on FRIGERIZER Z.
For controls, it is controlled by riding on top of the refrigerator and using the dune buggy's steering weel and foot pedals. The pedals have been moved to handheight next to the steering wheel. Jonathan prefers to dramatically punch the pedals instead of using his feet. And on each side of the pedals is mounted a plastic waterpistol. (No, it's not filled with flamethrower fluid, just water) The waterpistols are AGAIN flanked by a lever which controls the mechanical scoops. So yes, Jonathan never quite figured out he needs something like five/six/eight hands to control everything all at once.
Weapons(s): None (Though I suppose you could count the waterpistols)
Skills: Completely dependant on the controller.
Appearance: see equipment.
Race: robot
History:
Jonathan put this together out of scrap during his travels. It's somewhat unreliable, and he's always finding new ways to upgrade (or downgrade) it.
