Trivia
- All of Benny’s body modifications were done on himself, by himself.
- Almost anything is capable of flaring Benny’s temper, and he’s been known to pull out guns on just about anybody for any reason.
- His two favorite guns are named Headache and Heartache
- He is absolutely incapable of cooking. If you left him alone with a pot of water on a stove he’d somehow manage to burn it.
- He doesn’t work on rainy days due to joint pain.
About
A person obsessed with self modification, Benny is a mechanical prodigy, blessed with both academic and street smarts. He grew up largely taking care of himself, running an underground arms dealing shop out of an abandoned warehouse he calls home. Modifying himself with tech and making weapons are his passions, and with his incredibly high tolerance for pain, over the years he's slowly replaced parts of himself with superior machine prosthetics. It's clear to anyone that's spent more than a couple interactions with him that he's had a rough life. One that's made him incredibly paranoid, but he refuses to elaborate on it, instead throwing himself headfirst into his passions. Despite all his genius, though, Benny has a hair trigger temper, prone to violent outbursts at the slightest provocation. He and the law aren't exactly on the best terms.
While Benny shows no outward signs of being psychic himself, he is surprisingly knowledgeable about psychics, and a large portion of his business comes in the form of anti-psychic arms. He carries a weapon on himself at all times, and is proficient in a surprising number of firearms. On the flipside, close quarters combat doesn't seem to be his strong suit, and he is easily overwhelmed by more physically impressive opponents. Ideally, he'll blow them away before they even have the chance to get close.
Design
Notes
- Currently reworking his head design!
- Meant to illicit imagery of a devil or an imp.
- Made taller recently due to his height overlapping too much with Amar’s
- One of the more fun characters to draw! His apron was fun to design.
- Like Sanchez, he is one of the wider characters, with Wolfgang and Amar being the thinner protagonists.
Skills
Arsenal: Marksmanship
Benny is self trained in a large variety of fire arms, and is decently proficient in both close and long range combat with them. He carries no less than two guns on him at any given time, though he jumps at the chance to prepare heavier artillery.
Modification: Plug and Play
Benny's upgrades are highly modular, and specially built to make the most out of his technological interests. He is compatible with all sorts of technology, and the weapons/artillery he designs can usually be plugged directly into himself to be powered.

Iron and Oil
Benny’s independent career started off rough, but a do or die attitude cultivated by his upbringing ensured he was more than capable of navigating the treacherous underworld. He set up a name for himself as a mechanic by day, and weapons dealer by night. Unlike most other dealers, he excelled at custom orders, designing powerful high tech weaponry and repairs under the counter. While he met his fair share of ire and sabotage at the hands of cutthroat competition, his aggressive attitude and sharp mind made it so that all his detractors quickly learned not to get on his bad side, and his cover as a mechanic allowed him to get hands on materials. Leftover funds were funneled directly into self modification, replacing his limbs and various other parts of his body with sleek mechanical upgrades. It's hardly what he'd consider a comfortable life, as he lived out of the same warehouse which he worked, but it was more than enough for him.
Fateful Encounter:
Overtime Benny's mechanic gig attracted the attention of a few repeat customers, most namely a robot by the name of Sanchez. The guy looked far to green to be dealing with Benny's sort, but the cyborg enjoyed his company, and the food that hed bring whenever he came in for repairs. Hed supposed the man would be considered bis first real friend, and the thought made him fairly happy. He knew through Sanchez's stories that he'd gotten caught up with some homeless guy and was lending him a hand in the search for his brother, but he had up to that point doubted their paths would ever cross, until the night Sanchez was delivered to his office in two pieces. The robot was still alive, thankfully, but it kickstarted his induction into the group of what hed considered the craziest people he'd ever met, uncovering Eden’s secrets and forcing him to confront his own past as well. How that tale comes to an end though, remains to be seen…

”No idea why such a guy like that wants to hang around someone like me, but repeat business is good business. Besides, he brings good food when he comes around for maintenance, and he’s a damn good cook.”
Amar
Mentor
”I’ve never met a psychic as powerful as him who also didn’t know jack shit about psionic energy. I normally don’t give a fuck about whatever trouble those superpowered assholes do, but if he’s gonna be diggin’ around in places he shouldn’t belong, I might as well teach him something useful.”
Wolfgang
Acquaintances
”I’m glad there's someone I can talk to that can understand my technical jargon. His condescending attitude pisses me off, but other than that I guess he’s pretty alright. I keep tryna get him to try out one of my guns instead of the dingy ass pistol he was assigned, but he keeps declining. Whatever, pussy.”
