DEUS EX MACHINA

The Desolate is the owner and leader of a private, hidden fighting ring. He started it after fleeing from the caverns to escape the unwanted job of responsibility for the Mother Grub. He'd always been aggressive when he was younger, but has since then cooled down. Anyone is welcome to the ring, however they must keep silent and know the risk they put theirselves at.

Trivia

  • All of his injuries occurred on separate occasions.
  • Desolate enjoys spicy foods and drinks.
  • He has an artificial voicebox, but his left eye is not fake.
  • Voiceclaim is Caustic from Apex Legends.

demeanor

On the surface and from afar, Desolate is very quiet and sometimes even somber. The aura around it is cold, and he often seems burnt out or disinterested in the world, worn from age. However deep in his heart, Machia is very passionate about what he loves. At some times he is even overprotective of property or people. Sometimes he could be considered morally grey, and at times can be hypocritical. When provoked, he has a sharp tongue, not afraid of getting into conflict with others.

Facial features

Machia has a strong, thin, recognizable face. His eyes have a sad, tired look to them, they’re droopy and he has thick lower lashes and visible eye bags. He has a strong, straight nose that points slightly downwards. His cheekbones are on the more defined side. There is a prosthetic welded to one half of his face, which has a curved spike on his jaw and a short, straight one above his “ear.” The metal is sleek, silver and without imperfections. Following the outline of the prosthetic, is some scarring on his skin.

Scars

Machia has a great plenty of scars. The most prominent one is a large patch across his throat and trailing down across his collarbone. This heavy damage on his throat contributed to the almost complete loss of his voice. Around his lost arm, leg and half of his face are patches of scarred skin. He has smaller scars across his arms and chest from wounds caused by blades.

Prosthetics

Machia owns a small array of different prosthetics. The ones he wears most often were his first prosthetics. They’re flashy, a dark silver color and spiky at every angle. They make him look dangerous and intimidating. He has the spine to match, a metal one trailing down into a long tail, pointed at the end with 3 spikes. Machia has a pair of more subtle, “friendlier” prosthetics too. They’re very average, a pale grey to match his skin, with no points or sharp edges aside from his clawed fingers. He’ll typically wear these with casual outfits when going out. All his prosthetic limbs are detachable, and he’ll take them off to rest. His spine and face however, are permanently welded to his body

Wardrobe

Casting aside all the flashy cyberpunk-ish outfits, Machia’s clothing preferences are really quite plain. He really won’t wear more than tank tops, button ups, trench coats and dress pants. For these more mundane clothes he prefers natural tones. Off-whites, subtle greens and soft browns are his favorite colors to wear. He doesn’t mind a little black, either. Machia will occasionally wear some jewelry, too.

Design notes

  • Spine is metal, spines protrude on neck and lower back.
  • I don't mind simplification or extra detail on robot parts.
  • He does NOT have an eyelid on the metal side of his face.
  • Either outfit is fine to use, but I prefer the newer one.

Story

Story

THE CAVERNS

I don't want to live in a hole anymore.

From the moment Machia was born, he was bound to the caverns. As a jadeblood, he was raised and taught to care for the Mother Grub and to carry on his race. As a child, he thought nothing of this, and maybe at times could of been considered devoted to this job. He thought a jadeblood had an important, respectful job. This all changed as he got older. As sweeps passed and Machia became more exposed to the outside world, he only saw all the opportunities he was missing out on. He grew resentful of his place in society, he felt degraded and felt as if he were a servant to a painful cycle of life.

Machia grew to realize he had a very violent nature. A life in the caverns was not a life suited to him. One night he went to a close, jadeblooded friend about his issues. She was the one Machia could trust the most, they were always like brother and sister. The two came to a mutual agreement to flee their fate of serving the caste system for eternity, and to start a new life. In the dead of night, they escaped their life in the caverns to traverse the desolate deserts, never to be seen again by their peers.

THE RING

You're not the first to set foot here; Just another.

Since he left his life in the caverns, all Machia's ever known was fighting. If there was anything him and his friend knew they could live off of, it was fighting. It had started off with just them and a few others, doubling as both training and an outlet of physical violence. With a few more invitations and the word spreading a bit, it quickly got popular. Who knew fighting could gather such a crowd? Machia and his friend had to tell the others to quiet down before higher powers would find out and shut them down.

In the ring, Machia was an avid fighter. He participated in the fights almost daily, sometimes risking his life in them. With few rules set in place, fights often got bloody. Scars were made, eyes taken, horns broken, limbs were lost. Machia wasn't immune to this treatment. Over the course of his fighting days, all on different occasions, he slowly got torn apart. All chronologically, a horn, an arm, his face, a leg, and his voicebox. Machia was forced to replace himself, and now his skin is as cold as his heart.

CURRENT

A very small intro to this story part as a quote.

Machia has since retired his fighting days in the ring, fearful of losing any more of himself. He's seen many come and go, unfortunately including the friend who helped him escape the system and start this career. Now he monitors the ring himself, often in dark corners all on hiw own. Desolate is greatly respected by other members of the ring as a seasoned fighter. He doesn't show it often, but he still has a great passion for what he does.

Machia holds Tisana in great respects, but this exact contrast can tend to makes Machia feel so guilty...He doesn't quite understand sometimes. How could Tisana, in their line of work, tolerate someone like him? Everything overshadows Machia's dark, gloomy self whenever he's around Tisana, and he loves it. He loves Tisana to pieces. He sits in the sun for them, he tries sickly sweet fruit for them, he drags himself out from his cave for them. It's safe to say he's wholeheartedly devoted himself to Tisana Alitis.

Kinova is the one who has the honor of being called Machia's right-hand man. He trusts them enough to watch over things if he cannot. Machia values Kinova a lot, mostly because they're his first subordinate since he retired.

Another one of Machia's subordinate's, he likes the way Nayall questions little and gets into things with little hesitation. Despite being generally rowdy, untameable, and not the brightest, Machia appreciates Nayall's careful listening and attention to detail.

Machia didn't appreciate the scene Ahlire caused. Anyone who threatens to call authorities on Machia immediately are on his bad side. However, a part of Machia respect's the young man's odd sense of courage he had in that moment. In a way, he can see his younger self in Ahlire.

Hesius is a name Machia has learned to hate. They go back since Machia lost his first limb, and Hesius volunteered to provide him a prosthetic. Machia was quick to learn Hesius's peculiar nature, and it rubbed off on him in a bad way. The two haven't talked in forever, since Vinier's death, but if they ever met again today, Machia swears he'd rip Hesius to shreds.
