Powers
...in other words, he's basically a walking computer that can talk to other computers and tell them what to do. Think of it like X-ray vision that allows him to see the 'veins' of a computer and direct its 'bloodflow' as he pleases.
Equipment (Inventions)
- K.E.S.L.A. (Kinetic Extraction System for Limiting Accretion) - Used by Volt. Allows Reactors vulnerable to the Overload phenomena—where a Reactor loses control over their powers and constantly accumulates energy until it damages their body—to use their powers more freely
- Base security system - The DVNz main base lies within a hidden cave system underneath Alloy's main residence: a mansion built behind a gated, snowy mountain trail. Talos built a complex, covert security system complete with cameras, motion/thermal sensors, silent alarms, and fail-safe traps, as well as a hidden tunnel to Alloy's mansion, to protect the base if they ever were to come under attack.
- DVNz's goggles - Designed to switch between normal vision, thermal vision, night vision, and EMP vision (for detecting electrical wiring). Can also take pictures and send/recieve video feeds.
- K.O.N.D.U.I.T - A 4-legged defense robot Talos is currently building to fight alongside his comrades. On top of the standard (non-lethal) firearms amd propulsions system that almost every mech has, it is built with technology that mimics the Reactor gene; thus, it is capable using 'powers' that, while less postent, are similar to that of DVNz—i.e. the cloaking and holographic imagery of Mirage, the electric blasts and EMP attacks of Volt, and the shielding and metal transmutation/manipulation of Alloy. It has only been used in combat a few times, mainly serving as a mode of transportation for the gang.
- Brick-Bug - Talos's first attempt at making an AI. A robotic 8-legged spider with a brick-shaped body that serves as both Talos's pet and assistant.
Strengths
- Can directly hack into even the most compolicated devices
- Can quickly and effectively code in low-level architectures (e.g. assembly, binary), which allows for more efficient programs
- Powers allow him to create vast, complex arrays of technology in short periods of time
- Can find bugs and exploits in code quicker than most
Weaknesses
- Is smart, yet still imperfect and can make mistakes in code
- Higher-level languages (e.g. Python, Java, C, etc.) harder for him to grasp
- Can't really do much else in terms of fighting. Has to use some sort of device (mainly K.O.N.D.U.I.T.) for combat
History
((Author's Note: OK so like, i said this once in a Discord character Q/A and since I'm too lazy to retype it im just gonna repost it here See this as both a backstory and IC...character...speaking...reference...thing... ... you get the idea.)) Talos: -oh no spotlight cant deal- "O-oh my backstory? I-it's n-nothing s-special or anything, haha...ha..." -deathly nervous groan- "I...was just...the first Reactor that Alloy f-found. Y-you know, since we're so close on the family tree...He a-asked my dad--h-his brother--if he could 'babysit' me for a while a-and...well, h-he ran a couple of tests. N-n-n-n-ot like the invasive ones like GUN ran on Volt, heh heh..." -holycrapthatlaughwassooutofplacepeoplearedefinitelyjudgingaaaaaaa- "M-more like, games and other things that would draw my powers out and...w-when they eventually did h-he told my dad about them and asked if h-he could adopt me--j-just so he could teach me how to use them responsibly and pr-o-tect me from a-anyone who'd want to harm me because of them...m-my dad agreed and...w-well, here I am! Hah...h a h....((heh))...." -plz kill me-
